I'm thinking specifically phones after JA posted about Vanced, but whilst we're here we might as well keep going. I'm a bit of a noob these days so anything welcome including games.

There hasn’t been a worthwhile new app made in about five years.

1Password - password manager. Everyone should be using a password manager to create unique passwords and check for breaches. This is probably the best one (LastPass also ok)

what3words - mapping app. Divides the world in to 3x3m grids and then gives each a unique 3-word text reference. Useful for conveying directions when not at an address (e.g. I'm at the park, by the big tree = ///repay.twig.meals. Festivals/beaches etc. are other times I've used it).

Depop / Etsy - useful for 2nd hand/vintage/custom stuff. Bit more curated than eBay etc.

I thought only teenage girls used depop.

I tried it when Lastpass died but settled on Bitwarden in the end.

That what3words looks like a right load of shit. Never thought I'd find anybody using it.

Why would you ever need to give directions to a featureless wasteland? Do you need help desposing of a body? Or are you just a very cautious drug dealer?

For finding somebody in a festival crowd it would be massive.

Covered under the drug dealer clause.

Doesn't sound very cautious dealing in the middle of thousands of people.

It's fine when they're all dealers / addicts too.

Isn't What3Words getting a bit of stick because some of their combinations are very similar sounding resulting in issues?
