A list of useful apps

I love reading lists. I learned a lot from looking/reading other peoples lists. With that in mind, I would like to share my list of apps that I currently use:

Productivity

Evernote

ios Free mac Free windows Free  android Free

Evernote is a tool to help you remember anything (thats what their site says). You can write notes through this application and sync to all your devices via cloud. Great for note taking, research and writing. Its something like Microsoft OneNote if it was enabled with a cloud service and is multi-platform. Great interface, easy to use and best of all its free!
 

Wunderlist

Pocket (formerly 'Read it later')

This app (along with Instapaper and Readbility) saves pages you come across on the internet for you to be able to read it later. Clean interface, available for iOS and OSX for free! (Has a few quirks that I don't like though, you can read about it from my previous article)

Health and Fitness

iMuscle

Its actually a medical app to view muscles. How is it useful? Well, it has excercise recommendations for the muscles that you view and a section to build your workout regimen. Oh, and did I mention that the excercises shown are animated and in 3D?

Seconds Pro

A good interval training timer if not the best in the market right now. You can create you own timers for your routines or download ready made stuff from the interwebs. Worth the money!
