If you travel frequently, keeping track of all your flights, hotels and car trips can be made easier using a few different iPhone apps that consolidate all that information in one easy to access location. These iPhone apps are great because not only do they give you a dashboard for your flight information, but they also help you keep track of changes to your trips and easily input your information into the apps. Price: $3.99 TripIt is hands down the best trip and itinerary app for the iPhone. This is not only because TripIt offers a great application but also due to the unique service that TripIt provides which helps you automatically create trips using your confirmation emails. Once you’ve setup your account at tripit.com, all you have to do is forward your confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com and they will instantly add the information and create trips for you with all the flights, lodging and car detail information. The professional version of TripIt costs $4 which removes the ads, which I highly recommend. The app shows your upcoming trips in a list where you can tap to get details. There are color coded icons for flights, lodging and cars. Plus TripIt adds convenience items to your trip like directions from the airport to your hotel, and a map of your destination city. Flight details include links to seat details, terminal and gate info, flight check in websites, and more. You also have passenger info, confirmation numbers and contact numbers in case you need to call the airline. The design of the app is very easy to read. There is no push notification feature for flight changes built into the TripIt app. You can view maps of addresses, but for some odd reason you have to tap the view in Google Maps link to get there. If you pay for a TripIt account ($49/year) you should download the free app, and you are also able to track your rewards points in the app. Finally in the Network section you can find out when your TripIt Connections are traveling. The app also lets you add new trips or add new plans to existing trips, although the interface for adding changes uses a tediously slow web based interface. Another missing feature in this app is the ability to view past trips. The TripIt app purchase comes with an iPad optimized version as an added Read More

Whether you’re a student, a full-time jobber or a freelancer, a consultant or a business owner, treat your Android devices as it were your best friend. Thanks to the right Android applications, you can save a lot of time, work more efficiently and be more productive. There are some great Android apps that can help you manage personal or work-related tasks, from email and to-do lists, to file management and reminders. But with over 30,000 apps currently available in the Android market, it’s difficult to figure out which are the best ones. I’ve gone through tens of apps and reviews of apps and came up with this list that will help you work smarter, stay organized and save lots of time. These are the Android apps that no serious business user should be without. Dropbox is one of the most famous file management tool on the web. I use it all the time to upload files and share them with my clients. You can easily download the mobile app and manage your files in fully synced folders from your mobile device and desktop. You can access your account no matter where you’re at, which is pretty cool. With GDocs you can create, send, import, export and sync the documents that are stored in your Google Docs account. If you use Google Docs very often, then this is the app you need to get your hands on asap. CamCard can help you capture business card images, recognize the content and save it as contact in your address book easily. It takes less time than if you were to write all those contact details on your phone and save it. If you’re a business man, this is great app that will save you a lot of time, especially on certain occasions, like conferences, when you have to save 10-20-30 contacts. You can get a free version of this app, which allows you to scan 10 cards for the first week and then 2 per week, or you can get the paid version that is unlimited to the numbers of scans you can make. You can tell from its name that this is a task-management app and it’s supposedly one of the best on the web. You can easily add and remove tasks when you’re on the road, organize tasks and get alerts. You can get it yearly $25 subscription. Jorte is a cool Read More

There's just under a week to go until Tax Day which is April 18 this year. As the deadline nears, so does our anxiety about filing taxes. Luckily for you, there are several Android apps that can help you prepare your taxes, and even file them. It’s great to see financial institutions and services target consumers on the mobile level -- I did a list of Android tax apps last year, and there were far fewer apps dedicated to tax services. Here are some useful Android apps to help you survive tax season this year. TurboTax SnapTax lets you do all your tax work on your Android. Use the camera phone to take photos of completed tax forms, complete the detailed forms in the app, and submit your e-file securely. This Intuit-powered app works for federal and state taxes, and will help you through the basic filing process. The app is free to use, but charges $19.99 for complete tax return services. H&R Block has gotten into the mobile game with its first Android app, Tax Central. Free, this app lets you check the status of your Federal refund, search Q&As from other users, and create a custom checklist for your personal tax filings. The app also has a tax refund estimator, and features news and updates in its video gallery. Ready to sit down with H&R Block? There’s a GPS locator included in the app as well. The IRS is also making a go of the mobile scene, with a special IRS2Go app for Android users. Free, this app tracks the status of your refund, delivers tips as well as the IRS Twitter stream, and offers instant access to IRS customer service, as needed. If you want official word on your tax returns, this is the app for you. TaxCaster Mobile is another Intuit app that calculates your federal tax refund. It’s a free reference tool for estimating your tax returns, seeing how much you’ll get back, as well as how much you’ll owe. TaxCaster goes through a series of basic questions, such as marital status and age, to determine tax return estimates. A third app from Intuit is MyTaxRefund, a tracking tool for filed tax returns. Enter basic info like your social security and zip code, and this free Android app will track it down. Once your tax return has been located, MyTaxRefund details its status, as well as Read More
