7 Apps That Will Help You Crush 2017
Twenty20

Well, 2016 disappeared faster than a free seat on a rush hour A train. And while there’s no telling what technological wonders the coming year will bring (we’re keeping our fingers crossed for doughnut-on-demand drones), these apps will help enrich and streamline your life in the meantime. 

v for wiki app
V for Wikipedia
1/7

V for Wikipedia

This beautifully designed app lets you learn more about the world around you by showing you articles of interest (e.g., architecture, historical sites) based on your location. Your afternoon walk just got a lot more interesting. Available on iOS ($3.99)

hardbound app
Hardbound
2/7

Hardbound

Another brain-booster, Hardbound offers concise, easy-to-follow visual stories covering everything from “The Science of Practice” to “How Sushi Became a Thing” to the day’s must-read news. Available on iOS (free)

slice app
Slice
3/7

Slice

Online shoppers, this one’s for you: Slice automatically tracks your packages, monitors price drops and even tallies up your spending habits. (Not to be confused with the pizza app of the same name.) Available on iOS and Android (free)

streaks app
Streaks
4/7

Streaks

Resolutions are great, but actually sticking to them…not so much. This app helps you create new habits by sending you reminders and logging your progress, all on a gorgeous interface (it won an Apple Design Award). Available on iOS ($4)

sitorsquat app
Sit or Squat
5/7

Sit or Squat

OK, we’re not crazy about the name, but this app is actually pretty useful: It helps you find nearby public restrooms, complete with user-rated assessments of cleanliness so you can avoid nightmare situations. Available on iOS and Android (free)

velocity app
Velocity
6/7

Velocity

This all-in-one restaurant app makes dining out a breeze: First, nab coveted last-minute reservations at spots like the Eddy and Ippudo, then pay your bill seamlessly via mobile, Uber-style. Available on iOS and Android (free)

gboard app
Gboard
7/7

Gboard

This keyboard is about to change your life. Among its many features, it allows you to use Google right within your text screen, search emojis and GIFs and use way-faster glide typing. Google, you’ve done it again. Available on iOS and Android (free)
