Must-Have App When Purchasing a Car

Purchased a car last week and Car Loan Calculator by City Jams was a valuable tool.
I'm sure there are similar apps, but this one performed for me.
It allowed me to "call them on it" when the dealer came back with a payment that according to the app, had them quoting me at almost 9% interest.
The app lets you input vehicle price, down payment, # of monthly payments, etc.
They were not happy I had all the data on my phone. They admitted they just threw out an "arbitrary" offer and it was "open to revision".
No, lesser prepared customers might have thought the payment was about right and unknowingly agreed to those terms.
Recommend using it. Look for "no cellphones allowed" signs coming soon to dealerships if more people start using this and similar apps.

Any place of business that restricts access to consumer tools, be it blue books, cell phones, or anything else, is a business that won't get a dime from me. If a business doesn't want me to have any and all tools at my disposal it tells me that they want to take me for a ride. No thanks.

  • What are the must have apps for Snow Leopard

    Just downgraded from Mavericks to Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Just can't stand the frequent beach balls. Was wondering what are the must have apps that are still being updated by the developers?

    Most of the apps that comes with OSX 10.6 are not being updated anymore. It would be great if you could recommend apps that are still being updated for security, stability etc for the following:
    1. Email
    2. Browsing
    3. Office Suite (like iWork)
    4. To do List
    5. Photo Editor
    6. P2P / File Sharing
    I am aware that there are reviews in the net for best apps, but I am interested to learn what people in this community have used personally and suggest.
    Cheers

  • Newbie to Mac - which must-have apps do I need?

    I just switched from PC to MacBook Pro. What are the must have apps that I have to have?  Do I need virus protection? Antispyware? I want an app to help me keep my Mac cleaned up. Is MacKeeper worth it? Should I stick with Safari or use something else? Is iPhoto all I need for my photos? Should I store my recorded videos in iPhoto videos or in Movies? Do I uninstall programs simply by dragging them to trash? Can you overcharge the battery? Should I unplug it after it's fully charged? Open to any and all advice! Loving my Mac!!!
    Cassandra in Gulfport, MS

    Browsers should set their own history number of days and quota for size, but they don't , and they can get 'carried away' with web caches, temp files, history. Safari even takes bookmarks and 'caches' it into individual files (so that Spotlight can find bookmarksj!)
    So yes I do. I don't like having to do so manually and think there are better ways.
    Chrome has and can get huge caches. Safari as well. Mozilla has "auto" and seems to try or you can manually set it to what you want.
    Any of the "cache" cleaners can be abused or over-used.
    I also like to "intelligently" remove ad-cookies and those that are not needed by me for web sites and that is another vote for using one and no OS X isn't smart enough to be totally self-sufficient.
    And all of that will fragment free space. Mac only deals with large files and works pretty well as long as there is "enough" free space to not be an issue. But then I find even cloning the system to a new drive - which also skips copyiing temp files and consolidates free space, works great and I do it regularly (the old drive becomes backup and use the clone as new boot drive).

  • Must have apps. Anyone?

    Can you please suggest me some 'must have' free apps. There are thousands and I don't know which should I choose. 

    If you are looking to download free music and movies here are two apps that might work for you.
    I have never,ever tried these, though.
    Free Video Download
    Free Music Download
    Both of these have their own players to watch,listen and manage music and video.
    By advised that downloading and storing videos on iOS devices will eat up memory fast.
    Especially if the videos are not compressed versions.
    If you like to watch free streaming videos, movies and music, here are some apps as an option.
    Crackle TV
    Pandora Radio
    If you can afford it, there is always iTunes for downlaod music for either 99 cents or $1.29 per song.
    Movies and TV shows I find too pricey to regularly rent/purchase from the iTunes Store all of the time.
    I only have a couple of shows I purchase by season from iTunes and that's it! And purchase/rent movies from iTunes only every once and awhile if I REALLY want to watch a fairly recent released movie.
    If you like regularly watching movies, for $7.99 a month, you can stream and watch Netflix movies and TV to your iDevice ( using Netflix free IOS app) and with an optional/apprpriate purchased audio/video cable from Apple, actually connect the iPad to your TV and watch on whatever TV you own.
    You need to have a paying monthly subscription to be able to do this, though.
    If you live in the States or Canada, I think this is a very cheap/reasonable option.

  • Must Have Apps & Utilities for first time mac user?

    Hello Everyone,
    This is my first mac and I was just wondering if the are any must have system utilities out there. I already have techtool deluxe which came with the apple care cd. I hear a lot of people talking about disk warrior and other programs...so I'm just wondering if there's some sort of a consensus on any must have utilities .
    Do macs even really need system utilities like PCs?
    Any advice would be very much appreciated,
    Thanks

    My two cents:
    There are no "must have" applications or utilities. Anything you must have is already built into the system.
    If you run your Mac 24/7 the periodic scripts will take care of themselves. If not, run them once a month with MacJanitor or Onyx or Cocktail or just in Terminal by entering :
    sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
    Enter your admin password and press Return. (You will not see your password.)
    I'm always very skeptical about getting freeware.This is an unfounded fear. You should fear both equally Actually, there are some excellent freeware apps and some are better than their shareware or even commercial counterparts.
    DiskWarrior is an excellent app to have and hopefully never have to use.(EDIT: TechTool Deluxe will also rebuild your directory if needed) I do very little to my Macs, unless I experience some problem which is seldom.
    Enjoy your Mac:)

    ask 100 people and you get 100 opinions.
    scout the iTunes app store and find out which apps will suit your needs. you can do that NOW, while you anticipate the arrival of your new toy. it's more fun that way, IMHO

  • Top 10 must have apps

    finally got my N97 back from repair, however everythings gone so based on ur opinions excluding hermes what would be the top 10 apps i should download.....
    thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    hmm. the apps i use the most are angry birds (awesome fun in lectures), fuelpad (easiest way to log my travel expenses for work).
    im mostly an audiophile/videophile so i spend more time listening to music and watching videos compared to playing games. so the extra decoders support and ogg support were useful. still wanting an app that stretches the video to take advantage of the screen though.
    although i do have the emulators... i also have conky and health check for occasional monitoring.
    as for widgets...
    petrovich is useful for sending files easily, conversations widget is nice, and i have that cpu/mem widget (not the applet).

  • Must  have apps for travelling

    Taking a driving trip from NY to FL.  Any suggestions for apps that I'll need for finding hotels, gas, food, gps, etc?  I'd like to get these loaded and familiarize myself with them before we leave.  I will have 3G while on the road.

    Unless you're travelling the backroads, you should be able to find gas pretty easily, unless you are looking for a specific brand.  For hotels, I use Marriott's app, but usually make my reservations in advance.  I'd use the app only to change a current reservation.  In terms of food, Open Table is good for finding restaurants.  The app will use your "current location" to find restaurants in your vicinity, and you can make a reservation on the go.
    Since you mentioned 3G, I assume your iPad has WiFi and 3G, in which case it has GPS built in.  For travel, I've found the built-in Maps app is quite good for showing where you are travelling, as well as providing traffic conditions and directions.

    Though you may find users giving their opinion about your query.. I think its purely ones own choice. An application that is extremely useful to me may be an utter useless thing for you... Why don't you go to the OVI Store...set your device and see the details of all the applications one-by-one to select the most useful to you...My advise is.. do not install anything for the sake of it.. install ONLY those you really need..
