Hi guys, it's KJ the MiTechGuy here and today I'm going to show you all
the apps that I use on a daily basis, what apps are my homescreen, and what
apps I just have on my phone the phone I'm using right now is the OnePlus 7 Pro
and if you don't know already why I chose this phone over say the iPhone
XS Max or the Samsung galaxy s10 plus make sure you watch my full review
that I posted last week make sure to stir grass at the end of the video for
some channel updates and let's get right into it. So right off the bat you can see
that I actually keep my home screen pretty clean. I don't really fill up both
of my screens I have my widget up here that shows you my subscribers and if i
refresh that yeah my subscriber count' updates really I haven't really used
this stock area over here so that's usually just sitting there but as for my
main home screen I do have my Google Calendar right now it's this summer so I
don't really have anything set in there so I'm not even going to get into that
for photos I really like editing photos so I'll use Lightroom to edit all of my
photos and right here I have like my Christmas pictures and different formals
I've been in and also different pictures that you'll recognize from Instagram and
I think it's just a good way to edit my pictures and I really enjoy it I like
editing them on my iPad specifically but I also like having the ability to sync
up all of my different photos on my different phones so having the Lightroom
app really helps with that it does cost monthly subscription to do that but as a
student with the discount and with all the photos I take I think it's worth it
these other two photo apps I don't use as frequently on this phone specifically
the imaging edge app is actually at that I used for my Sony A7iii and it
connects to it and it allows me to use my phone as the shutter button and also
record and video so that's useful for and I'm making videos but usually I use
a different device for that because I want my phone to be able to look up
different things and the photo grid is just self-explanatory it makes those
photo collages that I mean I don't really use too often actually
next up you'll probably see that I had do have the Tesla app and that's just to
control the functions of my car using this car I can use my phone as the key
so if I walk up it just opens and when I walk away it locks automatically and
using the controls function I can flash the headlights or honk the horn or start
it remotely which is really cool and I can also like look up the location of
where it is right now and also see the status of its charging if it were to be
charging another app that I use a lot on a daily basis is YouTube studio and this
is just where I can keep track of all my videos I can see the comments that are
coming in and I can see some real-time analytics that I don't really want to go
into right now but this is just a really nice app to have and it just really
keeps track of all my videos Google Maps and Gmail self-explanatory Gmail is
actually an email app that doesn't just work with Gmail accounts I actually
connect my MIT and Stanford emails to it and it's actually a pretty cool way to
just keep all of my emails unified when I'm not using an iphone in terms of
social media apps these are the social media apps that I use on a daily basis
Facebook snapchat Instagram Twitter and then because I'm switched back to an
Android phone I've relied a more on Messenger and viber
for contacting other people because I like having those features of liking
messages and reacting to things that still regular SMS just doesn't have for
at this point group me is something that I only keep on my phone because of
different conferences that I've had a lot of people have group me installed
and just having the app is good for those group chats discord is a new app
on my phone and if you watch my previous videos I've talked about my patreon page
and this is actually my server where I open dialogue with my different patrons
and we talk about anything from college life to tech to different coding
problems that people have and I can just give overall advice about whatever topic
people choose and then LinkedIn of course is a good networking app and a
lot of people that I meet over the summer I connect with on LinkedIn and
then you know that you can go back and look at their profiles and send them a
message or just figure out how to contact them later on and this is just a
good way to just stay in touch and just like group me I use slack just
it's a really good like group messaging platform that has good reacts and it's
just really organized with all the different channels and I actually like
using that a lot if I'm not going through some type of social media then
I'm probably going to be on Bleacher Report and this is where I just keep
track of all my NBA news because I'm a huge NBA fan and specifically a Laker
fan this app is pretty cool because it compiles all the different tweets about
the Lakers and their players and also gives me some articles that I can read
that probably interest me and it's just pretty cool
it looks pretty fast and with the OnePlus 7 pro everything is pretty seamless so
that's good the native clock app to the OnePlus 7 Pro actually surprised me I can
go here and set a specific song and it could be from Spotify or YouTube music
or some other music playing app and built into the OnePlus 7 Pro clock
you can set up a google assistant routine and yeah this whole clock app
just worked really well for me and I really never had to download a second
party alarm app or timer app so my go-to app for streaming music is actually
YouTube music and not just because I'm a youtuber I actually really enjoy this
app I think everything is organized really well I have this your mixtape
section where it'll actually play songs based on what you've listened to both on
YouTube and in the music app and it's just able to really put the songs that
you like and it'll know which once you've skipped and not skip and I think
this app just works really cool and also included with the YouTube music
subscription you're going to get YouTube premium so you won't have any ads when
you're in actual YouTube and it'll show the premium icon up here and I think
it's really worth it in the end you're paying for YouTube music anyway and you
just have the perk of having ad free YouTube as you can see on my second page
I do have face app and it's an app that I installed just to see the different
capabilities of it it uses AI and can change different features of your face
and make you look older younger put a smile on like right now I can go to age
and click old and then when it's done processing look good I look really old
and that's just really tripping and I think it's cool just to play
around with this app and see different beard styles different facial hair
styles and I can even change the color of my hair it's just a goofy app I don't
really know what the true function of it is it's just cool then here are apps
that I use often but not on a daily basis as much as these apps on the first
page and the first step on this page is Dropbox and you probably know what
Dropbox is just a file sharing service and a file storage service for online
and doesn't that mighty student I get a ton of free storage so that's where I
put a lot of my pictures and some video files that I want to just keep for
financial I have my Bank of America app venmo of course I'm a college student I
need to be able to pay people back for when they get the check or something
then PayPal Berkeley us or just to take care of my other accounts that I have
opened go breats is an app that it's actually launched when I just first
started college and it was actually something that has really helped me
throughout my years at MIT it's just a good place to order different food and
they'll come deliver it to you for some set fee and it just is a lot more
convenient than having to go out and Ebers to some place or like if you're
stuck at home or at your dorm it's a good way to get food to you especially
if you don't have a car on campus sleep cycle is an app that I actually used
less because of how good the one plus is the native app is but I do like this one
if I don't really have a set time that I have to be up and it's an app where you
can give a certain window like this one set from 7:00 to 7:30 a.m. and using the
microphone on your phone it'll detect when you're moving around a lot and it
will wake you up in the more optimal time when you're already moving around
and instead of when you're in deep sleep this has helped me wake up a little more
refreshed than if I use the regular alarm at the OnePlus folder just has the
weather and different oneplus apps for file managing settings this is all
self-explanatory next up we have the office suite and having a phone this
powerful I really like being able to just open
say one note and look at my different scripts and just having this available
on my phone for easy edits and now office is all in the cloud so I can log
in with my school ID or my personal one and I can access all my files remotely
which is really cool and then of course I have to have my Google Apps these are
self-explanatory these are apps that I don't always use but I just know that I
want to have them in case that I need any one of them for entertainment I do
watch occasionally on my phone not really too often because I do have my
iPad and my laptop but when I do I like being with a stream TNT for basketball
games cBS first same reason and then Netflix
and Hulu for all those shows and then I do have DirecTV so sometimes being able
to just watch live TV it's cool that I have my go to travel apps uber and lyft
now that I have a car I'll probably use these a little less and then I usually
fly Delta because I do like watching all the movies on the plane
and then lastly is just this imleagues app it's the app that coordinates all of
our IM teams and this is where I'll get my basketball schedule and stuff like
that and yeah I mean I really don't keep too many apps on my phone I try to keep
it as clutter free as possible because I don't really like playing games on my
phones I saved those for consoles actually I don't really play too many
games in general and I just like having these clean home screens and only really
it use apps that I absolutely need to maybe if I'm going on a plane ride or
something I'll download a game or two just to have some offline things to do
but most of the time this is all I have and it has served me well so those are
the apps that I use on a daily basis on my OnePlus Pro I do have an iPhone
XS max and the apps that I use are a little bit different because of that iOS
vs. Android app difference so if you want to see what I use on my iPhone
