What’s on the smartphone agenda for May?

Awesome Habits

Ever set yourself a big goal, only to watch it crumble within a week? It’s so easy to go all in with ambition and then lose steam the moment life gets messy. That’s why Awesome Habits feels like such a game-changer. It flips the usual goal-setting mindset and focusses on habits instead, because let’s be honest, building something small every day is way more realistic than trying to overhaul your entire life overnight. Want to drink more water? Meditate every morning? Cut back on caffeine without swearing off lattes forever? This app lets you start small and stick with it. You can pick from preset ideas or create your own, track your progress and even backfill missed days. It syncs with Apple Health, has all the widgets and reminders you need and looks great too. With custom icons and colours, your habit tracker feels like it’s truly yours.

AllTrails

Feeling restless? Craving some fresh air and movement? AllTrails is your go-to guide for exploring the outdoors, whether on foot, on a bike or even with your dog. From strolls around the city to mountain hikes, the app helps you find trails that match your pace, your location and your mood. With more than 450,000 trails worldwide, you can search by distance, difficulty, scenery or even stroller access. Every trail comes with photos, reviews and details to help you plan your outing. You’ll get GPS navigation on the route, and if you upgrade to AllTrails+, you can download maps for offline use, get alerts if you wander off course and check real-time info like air quality or weather overlays. It’s easy to log your activity, share your adventures and discover new spots through the community. Basically, if being outdoors is your thing, this app makes it even better
