Winter’s Coolest Mobile Apps

Winter’s Coolest Mobile Apps

Does winter always manage to find a way to cramp your style? We’ve got good news. Sure, it may be getting a little bit chilly outside, but we’ve rounded up the coolest mobile apps of the season to see you through. These gems are sure to lift your spirits and help keep you well-equipped for the winter weather ahead:

Winter Wake-Up

Constantly biting your lip over the unpredictable winter morning commutes or concerned about getting to work on time when the next blizzard could be waiting around the corner? No worries. The Winter Wake-Up app will rouse you earlier if there’s been snow.

You get three helpful options:

  • Set it __ minutes earlier if there’s frost
  • Set it __ minutes earlier if there’s snow
  • In addition, you can check off the option “Don’t bother to wake me if the weather’s too bad. I’ll work on Saturday”. We highly recommend this choice.
