You just got a shiny new phone. There is a new year around the corner. It is a good time to try something new because you could just migrate over all the same apps. It doesn't matter if you're rocking a new iPhone 13 or a new iPhone SE, here's a list of some apps that are better than what you're used to.
The mail is called spark mail.

It gets a lot of things right, but it isn't the prettiest email client.
Readdle Technologies has a Screenshot.
Apple's Mail app is fine. It is marginally better. Microsoft Outlook is a classic. The free option of Spark Mail has a lot of customizability. You have the option of toggling on smart notifications and integrating with other services.
Solid email.
Todoist.

Todoist lets you create lists.
Doist.
There are better options out there than Apple's Reminders app. If you need something with a little more power than a bullet list in your Notes app or a sticky note in your pocket, todoist is a good place to start. It can be used for everything from personal chores to work projects. It works with a lot of third-party apps.
Planta.

Plants only live because of Planta.

You are not the only one who has struggled to keep a plant alive. Who has the discipline to check soil levels every day? Planta is the only plant app that has helped me keep my plants alive and thriving. It tells you when to water and re-pot, and gives you temperature warnings for your outdoor babies. It can identify the mystery plant your auntie gave you. There are several subscription options, including a free version.
It's called Strava.

It is simple to use and keep the nerds happy.

If you want to be more active, you should use Strava. You don't need a fitness tracker or a watch to enjoy a variety of activities, and it supports many of the popular ones. It is easy to use as a hub for all your exercise goals because of the third-party integrations. There are many ways to measure your progress, as well as personal safety features, when you earn discounts on fitness gear.
YNAB.

One of the best proactive budgeting tools is YNAB.
The YNAB is a Screenshot.
The title says it all. If you want to be proactive about how you spend and save, YNAB is the place to go. You can make the categories and methodology easy to understand if you want. It comes with two subscription options that can feel a bit steep. I found that the app paid for itself within the first month after I started using it. You can take a 34 day free trial to see if it is worth it. Mint is a free option.
There is a person named Libby.

It's a must-have for bookworms.
There is a Screenshot of Overdrive.
Buying e-books adds up. You can borrow books, magazines, and audiobooks for free with the help of Libby. You can send books to your Amazon account. It doesn't matter which device you're reading on, because Libby automatically syncs across your devices. Offline reading can be done with it and it integrates with CarPlay.
Ebooks and audiobooks are in the library.
Tody.

Tody helps you save time by spreading out your cleaning tasks.
The loop loop is a Screenshot.
Do you know how often you should clean your cutting boards? How about when to change your shower liner? When it is time to clean, Tody will notifies you. To keep things fun and clean, you can organize chores by room, assign tasks to your family or housemates, and complete against Dusty, a dust gremlin. It helps you visualize how clean your home is, and also helps you settle arguments about who is actually doing most of the cleaning. There are no further in-app purchases, but it has a one-time fee of $6.99.
1Password

You can download a password manager like 1Password to keep your accounts safe.
The AgileBits is a Screenshot.
Password managers are required to maintain security. 1Password is compatible with multiple platforms and works with my Apple Watch, so I like it. It works with Touch and FaceID, is easy to set up, and even securely saves your credit card info for online shopping. It will alert you to which of your passwords aren't great and it's easy to create new ones on the fly. There isn't a free version, but there are plenty of other free password managers to choose from. Any password manager is better than none.
$4 a month at the App Store.
It's calm.

We are all stressed, but Calm has several helpful meditations. Who doesn't want him to lull them to sleep?
There is a Screenshot of calm.
It has been a difficult time for everyone. It's nice that Calm has meditations to suit your needs, like increased focus, reduced anxiety, or just daily topics to ruminate on. There are a number of sleep stories and music tracks on Calm. You probably already have a bunch of free white noise videos on the internet, but sometimes it's nice to drift away to a book. Headspace is geared more toward beginners if you just want to get into the space.
It was splitwise.

Splitwise makes it clear who owes who.
Screenshot: Splitwise.
It's nice to have a running record of all the money you owe, but it's also great to have a place to put it. The free version does everything you need it to, from automatically splitting bills to linking out to Venmo to pay your expenses.
