I have the Lidl and Aldi apps so I can look at the coming deals and also find the nearest Aldi or Lidl to us when we are gadding about

Me and my grandson love the birds of Britain app. He plays the birdsong like you would a game.
I love Google maps too as you can find anything you want wherever you are.
Last week while in our caravan we found a quality chip shop .today we found a specialised bike shop just by looking at my phone . No more driving round streets looking as if you are on the pull for a quickie.

Thanks. I think I will try 4 pics one word and Birds of Britain. I am sure I can't resist downloading Rightmove, what about Zoopla wonder if they do an app ?

What particular word games do you use Kitty ?

I have Word Battle and Word Champs, two weather apps, one sport, Pinterest and a couple others on my iPad.

Spotify Lidl Aldi also patient access to quickly book appointments order repeat prescription my shopi brilliant to remind me what I need at the supermarket and pinterest oh and calm when I need it

I have a lovely Magic Puzzle app. You can download free jigsaw puzzles for every day of each month and the more puzzles you do the more points you get to download further puzzles.

Shazam on iPhone and iPad. It’s magic! If you’re listening to any music on say, the radio, and desperately need to know what the piece is and who’s performing it, just switch on Shazam, let it listen for a few seconds and it tells you all you want to know. Brilliant.

Great suggestions. I have a few of those mentioned but haven't downloaded BBC iPlayer radio. Am off to do it right now! Thanks

Pinterest !

BBC player app is great because it means I can catch up with The Archers on my phone! The cbeebies game app is very good and has very good fun and educational games for little ones. My favourite and most used app is WhatsApp though because it let's you share photos and videos.

The First bus app is also very useful because it let's you check in real time when the next bus is coming. Re word games I use Word Brain.

BBC News, BBC Weather, NW Storm Radar which actually shows where the rain is!, Facebook, Twitter, Plane Finder ( we have a lot over!), then the games - Word with Friends, Ruzzle ( through which we skype with new friends in the US!), Hay Day and Bakery Story (blame my granddaughters).
