It keeps you updated with news, with the ability to see funny videos, and also see what friends are thinking at the time.

Messenger

Messenger is a texting app that allows you to also video chat. I tend to use this to video chat with family that do not have IPhones. It is linked to your Facebook, so you have to be friends with people in order to call them.

Snapchat

Snapchat is a app that I think of for communication purposes. It's essentially a app that we use to help us communicate with friends. You can talk, text, and video chat on there. Basically everything you can do with a iPhone, and not have one.

Tinder is a dating app, but you can also form friends on there. It is a outlet that allows you to post your other social media platforms to help get more friends and followers.

Cash app

Feb 18, 2018

Cash app is a nice and easy app to send and receive cash. It makes it easy by allowing your phone contacts to send you money or for you to send money just from the number. You have the option to have the money instantly in your account or to have it deposit with no money taken out. I think of it to be nice and easy and convenient.
