Let's Look!

 

Happy Wednesday, friends! I'm linking up with Shay and Erika for this blog post today.

I never talk about apps on my phone, but I do like to see what everyone does on their phone from time to time. That being said, I thought I'd join in! I do not have an iPhone. I have a Google Pixel 4a and feel like that needs to be said first thing, in case mine looks different or the apps look weird to you. 

How pretty is my background? That was a picture I took while I was at my friend's house on the beach this summer. About phones, I cannot stand a cluttered home screen on my phone or on my laptop. I don't even like a lot tabs open and I am always clearing them off my phone, thanks to my son Drew who made me that way. I create folders for everything and this is the only home "page" on my phone. 

Here is a glimpse inside those folders. Please notice their titles and the fact that everything inside is in alphabetical order.

This is my "most used" folder and everything is pretty self explanatory. Amazon, Bible app, Bitmoji, Calendar (I think I've finally converted from a paper calendar to my phone only), Chatbooks and Collage should be removed because I never use them, notes, Digital, email, social media, weather, pictures....this is the folder I open all the time. The digital clock app is the "clock" that both my husband and I use on our sides of the bed for a clock at night. I like to know what time it is when I wake up thirteen times in the middle of the night, anyone else feel that way?

This next folder is my Movies, Books & Music section and I will say that I use this folder almost as much as my "Most Used" folder. When I started reading on my Kindle, it started updating my profile on Good Reads, so I'm using that app again and it helps me keep track of what I've read all year. I use Spotify almost nonstop and that Services app is what I use to listen to music for choir rehearsals and to prep throughout the week if I'm on a praise team that next weekend. 

Last but not least is this Smart Home folder that is my husband's pride and joy. He's made us into a smart home here and this is how we turn lights on and off, check home security cameras, see who is at the front door, open our garage doors, control the temperature in the house and see that our Amazon driver delivered the package right inside our garage door. My dad is always blown away by all these gadgets that Todd has set up in our home. 

So those are the only apps I use. I'd love to hear your favorites! Thanks for reading along, love to all.
