1. Whether it’s actual beneficial use towards my time, i.e. I use my fitness pal to keep track of my activity and what I eat to maintain a healthy lifestyle 2. I try to avoid apps that will send you into a spiral of a continuous stream of content with an addictive algorithm. This is so that I don’t find myself sitting in bed for 3 hours on the app when I could be doing something productive. 3. Lastly, I look to see if an app has good reviews. I gage usability and effectiveness from the perspective of others. Similar to how I will choose to buy clothes, skincare, decor, etc based on online reviews.

I love to upcycle old clothes. Cutting out designs or letters from old tshirts whether cotton, lace, denim, etc. and revamping my closet to match my personal aesthetic.
