Five Apps For The Busy Woman

Sometimes it feels as if each day is one long juggling act. Sometimes, it seems impossible to keep on top of your work, home and children – let alone your own wellbeing. Sometimes, all you need is a helping hand from the world of technology. There is an app out there to address pretty much every item on your to-do list – if you only had the time to find them. Here, we uncover five apps that will manage the chaos and streamline your life.

LAUNDRAPP

Arguably, life is too short to spend it with your head in a washing machine. So don’t. Welcome to Laundrapp, the UK’s fastest-growing laundry and dry-cleaning service. Available seven days a week, from 7 a.m until 11 p.m, this service comes with free collection from – and delivery to – your home or office and a Quality Guarantee. Arrange your order via the app, fill the provided bag with your sheets/shirts/children’s muddy PE kit and let Laundrapp handle the rest.

LE SALON BEAUTY

Great news for the woefully un-groomed out there: at the simple tap of the Le Salon app, you can book flawless manicures and pedicures in the privacy, comfort and convenience of your office, home or hotel room. This bevy of lovely, carefully selected ladies promises a complete salon experience, without the salon. Pick your location, pick your time (between 7am and 10pm), pick your treatment – and relax.

The HelloFresh app does the thinking and the shopping for you. All you have to do is ask, and these clever people will send a weekly box of fresh ingredients and easy-to-follow, healthy recipes to your door. Suppertime has never been so simple.
