You can do way more with your cell phone than play Candy Crush; there are all sorts of helpful business apps that can increase your productivity. The problem is there are tons of apps on the market and trudging through the list of apps is far too time consuming for the average person. Rather than downloading useless apps, check out this list of business-tested apps that will help you make good business decisions.
Some of the top iphone apps for Business productivity
Genius Scan
This handy little app is great for record keeping. Using the phone’s camera, this app can scan small documents and file them for you. The app works with your email account and other shareable documents like Google docs. It uses special digital technology that increases readability, so you won’t get blurry shots. Plus, it’s free. There is a $2.99 version that has upgraded features, but the free app allows you to scan all kinds of things like lunch receipts, business cards and brochures all with the swipe of a finger.
Voice Brief
On your way into work, why not have your phone read your emails, or catch you up on the morning news? An app can do that. Voice Brief is a fairly new app that reads text to you. It does cost $1.99, but it can read a variety of things including your social media updates and stock quotes.
Bump
You’ve seen the commercials for a phone that transfers information by touching phones, right? Well, it turns out there is an app that does that too. The app, Bump, has been around for a few months but it recently upgraded its product to user’s delight. Now you can bump phones with a friend to share things like contacts. It can also bump pictures from one device to another. So if you want your pictures from your laptop to your phone, all you have to do is bump them. It’s a free app.
Update!!! Bump no longer available, it has been discontinued.
Clear
If you’re a list-maker, Clear is an app you’ll want to add to your download list. This app is simple yet functional. With a color-coded list, you can add and remove things from your list with an easy flip of a finger. For those who are super organized, or those who wish to be that way, it’s a good investment. The price for this app varies, depending on your phone and the features you want. It ranges from $1.99 to $9.99.
Dragon Dictation
Got a great idea and can’t find a pen and paper? In a digital world, that’s far too old school. Just download Dragon Dictation and tell your phone your hot idea. It records your voice and flips into text. You can save the files or you can sync the app to your email or social media sites and send the information wherever you’d like. These kinds of voice-activated apps have come a long way and have fewer problems understanding words than early attempts. You won’t break the bank with this app either – it’s free.
Pageonce
This handy app will keep all of your financials in order. From paying utilities to insurance, this free app allows you to send payments, set alerts and organize your monthly bills. Business owners should also consider downloading a specific insurance app. Most providers, like Monkey, have interactive tools to stay on top of all your insurance needs.
These ones are just few out of thousands of productivity apps that makes business go round out there – they are too much to pick – but I think with this list, you can be sure of having the latest among the best of productive iphone apps for business installed on your device.
Of recent, if you tried one powerful app and feel you can’t just keep it to yourself, please share the app name with us, we’d like to test them too 😉
