You're sitting in the backseat and stuck in traffic or you have a long ride to work everyday? Here are some free apps to help you benefit from your time spent in your journey.
Pocket
Those interesting articles and videos you come across during work that you saved for later can be stored in Pocket. If you're in the car and want to kill time, this is the perfect time to catch up on those articles and videos that you were so busy to see. The best part is you don't have to have internet connection to tap into it so you can use it offline.
Duolingo
Unless you're driving, sitting in the car in traffic can be your chance to learn a language. This quick and interactive app has around 20 languages to choose from. It offers quick lessons of reading, writing, and speech features to learn in the quickest and easiest way. By the end of the ride, you'll be able to form a sentence in a foreign language!
MapMyWalk
You don't necessarily notice how much time you spend walking or sitting. By tracking your steps, MapMyWalk will notify you how much time you should be walking daily. If you can park your car farther from the office, you might be able to catch up on your exercise by walking.
Overcast
If you don't feel like listening to music, Overcast can be your pal while you commute. If you have 40 minutes to reach your destination, plug in an episode of your favorite podcaster. It has the advantage of not having to wait for a show on the radio or listen to long ads.
Flipboard
Catch up on the news. Flipboard will make it easier for you to read the major headlines of the day by various newspapers and magazines in one platform. This award-winning app creates your own customized magazine of your favorite reads. It offers users to share trending topics, discover magazines, and follow interesting people.
