How many apps?

My life is on my phone, it's how I track everything. I'm sure I'm not alone. I manage to do this with the assistance of 67 apps. I have a "friend", better known as my white knight who has 274 . Personally I think that is excessive and explains the issues with certain apps running slowly

How many apps do you have?

Do you think maybe you have too many?

Could you save yourself a lot of time if you had more?

Do you make the most of your phone?

Do you think you need to delete let's say a 100 or so as you've never used them since you downloaded them?

I've probably only got about 30 to 40 apps (can't remember without checking). I certainly don't use the majority of them very often and I'm definitely not making the most of my phone's abilities either. I really only have it as a safety net in case I break down or need to contact family for something important. It lives in the bottom of my bag and I forget it's there a lot of the time ...

32, my latest one is a period tracker which after 4 months of logging dates etc seems to know more about my body than me. It's handy though because I can tell you if I'm going to be on at any time next year!!

its not the amount of Apps that'll make a phone go slowly, its the amount of RAM and how many apps are being run at the same time..sometimes I go in and disable them, even the likes of facebook etc...big apps like these just slow things down...and they dont always have to be 'on'

And you can clear your ram regularly ...i took Facebook off my phone ...just so I don't accidentally put fab pics on there

Which I have done before ....facebook slowed things alot

I use them as and when I need them. For example, my KFC reward club app... Only use it when I'm going.

Could be a lot more, but I use my browser instead. I.e... mobile banking and betting.

I have 30 but don't use most of them. My calendar is used to keep all my work meetings in, Kik, WhatsApp and Facebook. Then fab is the one I use most. And I have the period log but it's not good for me now as I've started the menopause and I'm not regular anymore x

I send messages and take photos, both things the phone does out of the box.

I guess the only app I've installed is remote desktop.

So, one.

I would say in the last three years since I got my phone I've downloaded less than 10 apps. And the only one I really use is Whatsapp. I have no interest in phones and apps. I find it all very tedious. I only have my phone just in case I breakdown and to browse the odd website.
