5 Useful and Life Improving Things You Can Do on Smartphone

Lack of internet service on mobile is frustrating. One seems as if he is stuck and the phone has become useless.  Mostly when we are on a subway or in the middle of a park we don’t get Wi-Fi services. Lack of internet service can also be a good thing. Let’s face it, we have become too “machine-oriented” and have lost that human touch in our lives.

It’s not so much the machines that are destroying our lives, it is the internet. You must’ve noticed that since mobiles became Wi-Fi oriented (and became smart phones) they have become addictive.
Keeping that in view, we have compiled a list of interesting activities that you can do on your smartphone. Don’t worry we are not going to bore you with “uncle talk”. An example of a useful thing you can do is: Android users can edit their documents on the go as Office 365 hit the Google play store earlier in the year, there’s a short review of the app here and you might be surprised about just how powerful it is.
