Life hacks: apps that you shouldn't be without

Alex Hern told us about the apps that he relies on. Now Hannah Jane Parkinson shares the apps she uses every day

This month my colleague Alex Hern listed the apps he can't live without. Specifically, the apps that he uses to pretend that he is "a competent adult". I sit opposite him daily, and I am reserving judgment on that one. (Just kidding, Alex! )

Like Alex, I rely on Citymapper (when I'm not taking an Uber) and I am now trying out You Need A Budget. Because guys, I really need a budget. I am a person whose bank statement, if rendered into a video game, would essentially be me as a character bouncing from one ATM to the next.
