What Are Some Good Apps to Have on Your Phone?

Thanks for the invite. Recently, I've been enjoying success in both my career and love life, and I think it's largely due to a few new apps I downloaded on my phone. Sharing is caring, so here they are for everyone.

1. Zhiye Resume

I used this app to make my resume for job hunting. I found the free auto-generated resumes on some recruitment apps too ugly, haha. This app has beautiful, refined templates. When you don't know what to write, it provides smart example sentences and industry-specific resume templates, perfect for fresh graduates. They also offer resume optimization services, but that's a paid feature.

This app has been my recent favorite! The design is so appealing that I can't help but play with it. I use it every day to record my mood, as well as study, work, and life matters. I basically treat it as a diary. The templates are super cute, and using them seems to brighten my mood every day.

I mainly use this app to keep track of my schedule, to-do lists, and reminders. Every day, I plan out tasks I need to do, form a to-do list, and cross off each completed item one by one. This way, I can execute my daily plan in an organized manner. It also records anniversaries, menstrual cycles, credit card payment dates, and more—a very versatile tool.

After graduating from university, my parents started pressuring me to get married. I somewhat casually downloaded this dating app, not expecting much, but surprisingly, I found a boyfriend on it! Because it requires various real-name verifications, the authenticity of users is relatively high. The matches recommended to me were based on my interests and personality, so when I matched with my boyfriend, we felt very compatible and had great conversations. Many people have also shared their love stories on the app—welcome to enjoy the sweet treats!

This is an absolute treasure app for fresh graduates looking for jobs! A senior recommended it to me, and he landed a job at a top 500 internet company through it. The app contains recruitment information from many big companies and famous brands, along with real written test questions and various interview experience sharing. You can learn a lot about job hunting here, and it even offers AI mock interviews! As someone who gets nervous socially, I practiced on it and no longer froze during real interviews.

Friends preparing for civil service exams or public institution exams must try this app! It has tons of real exam questions and predictive questions for national and provincial exams. However, what I look at most are the current affairs and commentary sections. It is said that this app is produced by Xinhua News Agency, so the articles are very authoritative. I've heard it even predicted some Shenlun (essay) exam questions. If you want to improve your Shenlun scores, give it a try!

I feel that making good use of the apps on your phone can really help in life, work, and even love. Everyone should explore their own phones!
