Find yourself rushing from place to place this holiday season?
There might be a little relief right on that device that is in your hand about 75 times a day.
The majority of Americans own smartphones and they find that apps can be invaluable in accomplishing specific tasks and a time saver.

This is a nice list of useful apps.I suggest the app “SUPERBEAM” to be added to this list.This is very helpful to send files at greater speeds using wifi direct.Also the app “APP BACKUP RESTORER” is a very useful app to archieve and store your apps in “apk” form.Try them they are very useful.
