Where Could Apps go Next?

If you have got a smart phone, then you are undoubtedly stacked to the gills with all different kinds of apps for your phone.  After all, most apps are either free or are dirt cheap to get.  And since there are thousands upon thousands of them, you have no shortage from which to choose.  And all of this is not even mentioning the fact that, out of all of these apps, there are an incredible number of different features that are on offer.  One just never knows what someone is going to come out with next week or next month, and the possibilities would almost seem to be endless.  After all, the human imagination knows no bounds to its creative power, and there are a lot of people out there who are always working to create the next great app.

It is enough to make you wonder how far the entire thing could end up going.  After all, there are apps for just about every kind of thing you could imagine, from dating to navigating, and from transcribing what you say into a memo to pretending that you are playing a guitar along with the heavy metal gods of days gone by.  With all of those possibilities already being more thoroughly explored with each passing day, it is a wonder that anyone can think of anything new besides a new twist on the puzzle game genre.

It might actually be for the best if someone were to develop an app that asked you a series of questions, and then recommended an entire suite of apps that would help you out with what you want and need to do in life.  Typically, the penultimate version of any device’s functionality is the ability to help you do more things with it.  The service aspect of such an app would be beautiful, both in how much it would help the developers of great apps, and help you too.
