Mobile devices can help us stay on track when it comes to reaching goals. Whether it's finding ways to stay healthy, finding new recipes to cook more or taking more photos to stay connected with friends and family, U. S. Cellular is sharing ways to help people reach their resolutions and to be able to create Better Moments for themselves and others in the N
ew Year.
To help reach your goal, a new app may be needed to help you. Below is a few apps that could help reach goals a lot of people make at the beginning of a new year.
Get Fit - MyFitnessPal can help you stick to your workout regimen and stay
motivated as you improve your fitness and get in shape. The app helps you create
personalized workout programs and delivers progress reports as you work towards
your personal goals. It also has a database of over 3,000,000 foods to help
monitor your caloric intake and daily diet. MyFitnessPal can also connect you to
your friends so that you can encourage each other and provide extra
motivation.
Manage
your finances:
Looking
to improve your money management? Mint analyzes your personal finance
accounts and is a convenient way to track your spending, create budgets and
start saving money. The app can even send you alerts regarding upcoming bills,
unusual activity and low balances.
Improve
your diet: Lose
It! tracks
your caloric intake and monitors your diet, helping you manage your weekly
calorie budget and ensure that you are consuming the proper foods. It also
integrates with sites such as Facebook and Twitter so you can stay updated on
the progress your friends are making.
Learn
something new: Ever
wonder exactly how the stock market works or simply feel the need to brush up on
your math skills? Khan Academy features an extensive library covering
mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, humanities, finance and history with
easy to digest lessons taught by education experts. The app allows you to track
your progress and earn badges while challenging yourself to become proficient in
topics you might never thought you could have.
Stay
in touch: After
the holidays conclude, staying in touch with family can be difficult. But video
communication apps such as Skype help shorten the perceived distance
between our friends and family and provide the opportunity to create better
moments with them. Skype provides the ability to have a face-to-face
conversation with someone, even if they are hundreds of miles
away.
