Must-have apps every modern woman should install on Android and iOS smartphones

International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) has analyzed that how certain type of technology can make women economically and socially potential, become stronger leaders and to more effectively contribute to their families, communities, and local economies. One such technological advancement is “Smartphones”. The smartphones can sort some of the major issues that women tackle on a regular basis. Also as per research, it is almost impossible for a modern woman to think of one thing and one thing alone for a single moment of time, as their tragically made brains are continuously assaulting their thoughts with an endless amount of reminders, priorities, emotional interpretations, schedule changes, and so on.

Thus, in order to tackle all these and help the modern woman multi-task, some smartphone apps have been designed which would assist them to juggle multiple tasks. Here goes the list:

1. RideSafe:

An issue which has become major in the past few years in the Indian society, women safety is the first and foremost thing that needs attention. Hence, this is currently the best women-safety app. The big difference from other Women Safety Apps is that at the core of RideSafe, sits a state-of-the-art RealTime Route Deviation Detection (R2D2) engine, developed by a team of IIT & BITS graduates. You just have to enter where you are headed to, whenever taking any cab or auto, and rest is taken care of by the app. If the driver deviates from the intended route, the algorithm detects this in real-time and alerts you & your family and friends.

2. Companion:

With some different features, Companion is a revolutionary app designed for safety. This app allows you to enter your destination and then select contacts to be your “companions”, and they can follow your route home via a live map. It tries to guess the distress, like if you start running, your phone falls to the ground, or you don’t make it to your destination on time, you’ll get a message asking if everything is OK — if you don’t respond in 15 seconds, the app alerts your companions. This app also includes features to call police or give a heads up about unsafe conditions — therefore making it the ultimate app for avoiding uneasiness when walking home alone.
