What’s your favorite phone/tablet/electronic device app? 

The very first Mobile Society question was about apps, so we’re going back to the basics. When there’s nothing to do, fiddling around with your iPad or smartphone is a great way to stave off boredom, especially when traveling or waiting for an appointment. But apps aren’t just about fun and games — some of them can be genuinely useful. We asked our community about their current favorite phone/tablet/electronic device app. 

“I love RedLaser, Shazam music app and my Press Herald app.” — Facebook follower Shannon Rafferty-Roy

“Map My Run and Nike+ have proven incredibly useful as I have been training for my first marathon.” — Facebook follower Derek J. Veilleux 

“Angry Birds, of course. 😉 (Actually, GasBuddy and Google Maps on my Droid X.)” — Facebook follower David Merritt
