What non native apps do you use and why? (alien.top)

I’ve been a iPhone user for ages and tried lots of different apps to replace the native iOS apps. As a casual user though I keep coming back to the native apps because they just work across all my devices. So I guess I’m curious what everyone uses instead from a casual point of view

Gmail: Both personal and work. I can't figure out on how to set a proper email signature (work email) on the Mail app. I'm referring to showing the correct images and links. Gmail syncs the signature seamlessly.

WhatsApp: My main source of communicating. We don't use iMessage here.

Google Calendar: To sync my work stuff

Google Maps and Waze: Seems to work better on where I live

Spotify: Both music and podcast

Chrome: I dislike the address bar being placed on the bottom of the screen in Safari

Evernote: Easier to sync with my Android phone

I can’t remember if they put in an option to move the address bar in safari or not but it seems to ringing bells. Gmail is very good on iPhone

Oh. I seem to have found that option. I'd probably still use Chrome though. Most of my logins are saved there. Ha.
