Foursquare City Guide
Ideal for: City hoppers who love to explore
Upgraded from its classic function of sharing location with friends, Foursquare now helps its users explore new places in locations both known and unknown. The app offers recommendations on the basis of the people its users follow and the topics they show their interest in. For instance, if the user loves Indian food, Foursquare will alert them whenever it locates an Indian eatery in the vicinity. Of course, this feature extends beyond restaurants – to just about any other place of interest one could visit.

Divvy
Ideal for: Those looking to split and pay their restaurant bill as seamlessly as they enjoy their meals
Let’s face it – having to fairly split the restaurant bill between friends is a painful task at best. It is not always when one has an accountant or a math wiz on the table who could help make this seemingly painless task actually painless. With Divvy, splitting bills becomes as easy (or easier!) than the meal itself – the app simply scans the photo of the bill (snapped by the user) and itemizes it according to the number of friends sharing the meal. The app even includes tax and tip calculations.

Slice
Ideal for: Those who like to track their packages through-and-through
Tracking packages ordered online is a hassle on its own – especially so when the package contains sensitive and valuable material and/or it is prepaid. Obsessing over the tracking number only works for so long, especially when one has other things to do and manually entering the tracking number every time doesn’t really help stay on top of anything. Powered by Rakuten, Slice solves this problem by scanning emails for tracking numbers and/or order confirmations and goes on to find and broadcast information on the same. Information includes when to expect packages and dispatch and delivery dates.
