What is an app?

Jamie Oliver

Apps (or applications) have changed the way we use our phones for ever. Only a few short years ago mobile phone manufacturers dictated to us, the consumer, what functions a phone should have. Now we have the power to add or subtract the functions of our phones. City guides or country walks, restaurant reviews or take away menus. Now we take control of what our phones can do.

How to download your apps?

Your smartphone will have dedicated icon to take you straight to the apps, search key words and download straight to your phone. Connect Wi-Fi to keep data costs down.

Check out the apps you’re looking for from you PC or laptop before downloading. Appy shopping!
