The modern fast pace of a businessperson’s life makes them constantly look for ways to optimize all the surrounding processes. Mobile apps, programs, and aggregators allow you to do this, which means they help free up time for your favorite and useful activities.

We have compiled a selection of apps that cover different areas of a business person’s life and help to make sure that a smartphone is an invaluable assistant for each of us.

1. Financial Calculator

You can calculate compound interest, overpayment, and all other loan details yourself. Special calculators have become great helpers in this case. We provided a detailed calculation with examples in this publication. The App Store and Play Market offer a large selection of such programs.

2. TeamViewer is a software package for remote computer monitoring. If you need to control your computer from a distance, this program will be an invaluable assistant for you, regardless of your type of activity. The computer you want to access from anywhere on Earth must of course be turned on. It works on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, iOS, and Android operating systems.

3. ABBYY FineScanner is an app that allows you to quickly scan documents with just a few clicks. ABBYY FineScanner supports editing and annotation of scans. Available for Android and iOS.

Office Lens is a powerful document scanning app from Microsoft. In addition to scanning documents, the program allows you to create “scans” of presentations from boards. All documents can be stored in One Drive Cloud Storage. These free apps or their other analogues can become a complete replacement for expensive office equipment.

4. Arbuz.kz

When you do not have enough time or consciously do not want to spend it on shopping for food, such useful services come to the rescue. The only sad thing is that Arbuz.kz is currently working only in Almaty; however, the company plans to cover all of Kazakhstan. If you do not have time for cooking, you can make an order at your favorite restaurant through food delivery services. Services such as Wolt, Glovo, Yandex.Food and Chocofood are gaining popularity today.

5. Flipboard

Reading the news began to require much more free time that business people do not have. Flipboard is a news aggregator and your personal magazine that collects individual content. When you register in the app, you can select topics that interest you and then get filtered information. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn accounts can be connected to the service so that you can easily scroll through photos and messages from friends. Flipboard is also available in the desktop.

And a separate point is mobile banking. The Smartbank app from Eurasian Bank allows customers to significantly save their valuable time. Available for Android and iOS, as well as in the desktop.
