Deere-est Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 It seems the Smart Phone, in its number of guises would be the norm nowadays. I for one use my HTC to access the internet on mobile as well as at home on Wi-Fi more than any other means. I know many of you people do now too. So, what about Apps? I've been a bit slow on the uptake of installing and using Apps. I only had one downloaded App unroll recently, a tachgraph hours runtime calculator. Yesterday on the recommendation of a mate of mine, I downloaded WhatsApp. It's a communication aid which is free, a bit like Skype with email, messenger, text/mms and voice calls all for free. It's very easy to use and it appears many people already use it as ait syncs with your phone contacts, thus showing you who you know who uses What's App. What about you boys and girls, what do use? What does it do? And how do you find it?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I have a Firestone App for tractor tyre pressures on my phone, found it handy for checking them at work, also have one from Hutchinsons for seed rates, chemicals and other things for work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First three points since I was 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
