Apps Moms Are Sure To Love

Not everyone has been so ready to jump on the smartphone bandwagon, but as they're becoming more popular and used in greater number, we're finding better uses for them all the time. There are few people in the world that need help more than a mom. It's one of the hardest jobs there is and the demands on a mother are many. There are many apps that have been developed with this in mind and, if you have a smartphone or you're thinking about getting an LG Android Phone, here are a few apps that moms are sure to love:

Making Your List

One of the most common duties for any mother is the grocery shopping. With OurGroceries, you don't have to worry about forgetting something at the store. With this app, you can create multiple lists for any times you need or will need in the future. You can also create lists for different stores with headings and subheadings. The app has a very cool feature that lets you enter in a new recipe and the software will automatically build a shopping list for you that lists all of the ingredients in the meal that you'll need. There's a lot of other cool features for parents and is a must have for anyone who's tired of forgetting the shopping list on the refrigerator door.

Savings

There are few apps on the market that are more useful that ShopSavvy. It's totally free for anyone and works on both the Android and iPhone market. What you do is take your phone out, start the app, and scan the barcode of whatever you're thinking about buying. You will then get a picture of the item and a list of local stores where the item is sold and for how much. The app scours the web for any traces of a better buy. It works on more than just food and you can scan almost anything. Anything from dresses to kids clothes, you can finally know if you're really getting the best deal around.

Organization

Organization is the last part of the basic needs of a parent. Jorte, like the other apps, helps you shop or save. This one is pretty much a personal organizer on the Android market that is really popular among mothers and the blogging community. It's a neat way for mom's to organize their personal life in an attractive and interactive way. It's a little more flowery so dads might not be so keen on trying it out but it's really easy to use and will put your life in order.

It's tough being a mom and, let's face it, they need all the help they can get. If you're a parent and you're looking to add a little more structure to you life, then look into some of these apps and browse through many others. If these don't work for you, there's probably another one that will.
