Making a New Year’s Resolution? There’s an App for That

December 31, 2010 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – Sometimes you just need a little bit of encouragement to make those New Year’s resolutions a reality.

 

Well, here are some “apps” to help you keep some of the most common resolutions – note not all of these are free:

Lose It! By FitNow

This app helps you give yourself a daily calorie allowance and keep track of how much you eat and exercise.

Daily Burn

BillTracker Lite by SnapTrap

Never miss a bill payment deadline again. Keeping track of which bills need to be paid and when can get messy, so download a little help.

Trapster

Trapster will notify you of red light cameras and speed cameras around you. It also stores location where Police Often Hide. As you drive, it will notify you by voice when you are approaching any of those camera or police hide out location.

Sleep Machine Lite by SleepSoft LLC

Resolving to get a better, more productive sleep this year? This app has you covered from the soothing sounds to lull you to sleep to the alarm to wake you up.

Mint by Mint.com

You can see alerts (“You’ve spent too much on parking!”) and take a quick look at your budgetary goals, which may be just the thing to prevent that impulse buy, or remind you that $4 lattes add up really fast.
