what is your must have app?

[newIntern]

I recently received notification from Tata about their 9.1% rate FD offering, so I started digging about it on the forum & learnt about stable money app, it seems like most of you love it & so far havent found anything negative, so I guess I will use that for my FDs.

This got me curious about what other apps I might not be aware about, Ii search on forum and havent found any dedicated post for it. so I thought I should create one.

my must have app is

1. Google Sheet.

I started using it around 2 years ago & it has been a blessing, I use to manage all my spending, keep track of CC CB and last dates for bill payments, its also useful if I want to check for how much I bought something for a long time ago.

What is your favorite and must have app?

1 license covers android as well as windows?

The personal licence covers any 3 devices and family license covers any 9 devices. Usually they give big discounts during festivals (Black Friday, Christmas etc). I have been using it since around 2015. Also the app is not available on Play Store. Need to sideload from their website.

I use bitwarden, but never stored card in it. will look into it

Bitwarden is probably the 2nd most important app for me (after Adguard).

(1) Authy
(2) Bitwarden
(3) Steam

These 3 are mandatory for me.

Wipr 2 is the best ad blocker for iOS and MacOS.

(1) Authy

How do you feel about Authy compared to Google Authenticator? I have read that it's better than Authenticator.

Yes, and there is a pro version as well on the app store with some additional features (but the base version for iOS is also good). I have the pro version on my iPad:

The support for Authy is immense. I had a 2FA enabled from a website that I couldn't remove on my end. I sent an email, and within 15 minutes, I received a reply. It felt like I was chatting with someone on WhatsApp. Excellent service bhai, just after sending the email, I got a response again in 5-6 minutes. They resolved the issue.

Main feature I like about Authy is its encrypted cloud backup. Even if I lose my Authy app, I can recover everything. I can also categorise my 2FAs according to my preferences. Overall, the UI is very clean. So, yeah happy with it so far :'D it's been 4 years already.

i prefer bhim + yes pay

gpay is known to send promotional push notifications and I dont like that.

Interestingly, I never get any promotional content in GPay. Probably I have disabled notifications.

how about okta?

It is great as well but it does not support offline code generation if I remember correclty, but authy does it.

KeePass - I use it to store all my credit card details. No need to carry or fetch the cards when required for online purchases.

This!
And
Bitwarden
NextDNS
NetGuard
And
Ublock origin addon/extension for every browser

data is usually encrypted using a secure algorithm and secure master password. as long as master password is not compromised or is insecure. you are fine.

I also use bitwarden but it never picks up on when to auto fill card details. I always have to manually look up for that info in the app.
