Image: SuppliedChances are you have hundreds of apps installed across your smartphone, tablet and computer. And many of those will be common apps that lots of people use. But there's probably a small subset of apps that you;ve found that not many other people know about. So, I'm asking what's your favourite app that very few people know about?
A recent post at Product Hunt asked this question and reveal led some really handy utilities.
I've been using a computer for study and work for over 30 years and I've been fascinated with how a small utility or quirky application can make a big difference to my productivity.
Of the ones on the Product Hunt list, I've used Grammarly before and will give f.lux a try. But what apps are you using that aren't mainstream but you find super useful? Let's share them, noting what platform you're using them on.

Thanks for that.
To the OP: the benefits of using flux are now built in to W10.
Easy to use profile manager.

Don’t stand in a queue to pay for your myki top ups. Use Pay24 instead for iOS

Yep - I use this one. Great for Myki, Opal, Eastlink and other services.
I wrote a free Android app called Sideways Mode that makes the phone's auto-rotation work when you're lying on your side. I use it regularly and find it useful for reading and web browsing in bed.

VLC - supports a lot of media/codecs, versatile, platform agnostic and is open source.
