5 apps that will make your life easier

Work, school, housework... When was the last time you said, "I don't have time for anything"? Indeed, we lead such busy lives with so many obligations that it seems we never have time to enjoy a little leisure time or relaxation . We're short on hours in the day, and no matter how fast we go, we never get everything done.

But let's not get overwhelmed. It's all a matter of getting a little more organized, planning schedules and tasks, knowing how to prioritize, asking for help, and learning to say "no" when we can't (or don't want to) do something. It sounds easy enough, but in practice, we all know it's not.

However, that's what technology is for: to help us in our daily lives. And of course, there are very useful apps that will save you from more than one tight spot and make your life a little easier . So grab a pen and paper and take note:

• Wetaca : One of those things we don't always have the time (or desire) for is cooking . Let's be honest: you can't live on sandwiches, salads, and convenience foods alone. It's no longer just about making something to eat; the key is preparing delicious and healthy things. That's why Wetaca was born, the brainchild of Efrén Álvarez, a former MasterChef contestant . What's it all about? Quality cuisine at affordable prices. Every week, they prepare a menu with 12 different dishes. Before Thursday, you must decide which dishes you want, and you'll receive them in Tupperware over the weekend . The food is prepared to last 10 days in the refrigerator , and the Chef promises variety and quality. Who hasn't dreamed of having a MasterChef at home?


• Glovo : one of those apps that makes you wonder: how come no one thought of this before? It's a delivery app ; that is, people who pick up whatever you need for you and bring it to you wherever you are . Did you leave your keys at home? Do you want to send a package? Do you need to pick up your shirts from the dry cleaners but can't make it yourself? For that and much more, there's Glovo (currently only available in Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Valencia, Paris, and Milan) . It works simply: open the app and see the delivery people who are available, express your needs, and contact them. You can track their location at any given time using GPS. When your order is delivered, verify that you've received it and pay through the app. It couldn't be simpler!


• And since we're talking about picking up shirts from the dry cleaners... Another task we tend to hate and that takes up a lot of our time is doing laundry, and especially ironing! That's why two Spanish startups have emerged: Mr. Jeff and Washrocks . Both operate as home-based laundry/dry cleaners . You can keep track of your laundry at all times and have your clothes clean and ironed in record time . Forget about washing and ironing and make time for what really matters!


• Sworkit Trainer : “I don’t have time to go to the gym.” Who hasn’t said this before? Well, why waste time and money at gyms when you can work out at home ? With this app, you can choose from strength training, yoga, stretching, or aerobics . It’s suitable for everyone, as it offers workouts from as little as 5 minutes to as long as an hour. Plus, many of the routines don’t require any equipment. You see: working out from the comfort of your living room has never been easier. Plus, you’ll have a trainer who will tell you exactly what to do.

Now you have no excuse not to eat homemade food, do your laundry, or get in shape. Technology makes our lives more convenient, and these types of apps are proof of that.
