Here is a classic blog. I have squeezed out every ounce of editing like a lemon when making lemonade. I took this old dried-out chunk of paragraphs and blanched, boiled, and braised it like a piece of meat from the back of the freezer. My cooking has broken down the sentence fibers and tenderized my slab of ramblings, making it enjoyable for your consumption. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy that cold lemony drink as you read my updated writing from some time ago. Please enjoy!
Ain’t nothing but an app thing…
I have spoken about how we benefit tremendously from the plethora of intelligent technologies. I have explained how futuristic inventions have improved all aspects of my life significantly. For example, tech has helped me open and close the door after answering it using a video doorbell while being in another part of the house. Using smart speakers verbally, I can set reminders, check the weather, listen to music, phone a friend, or even call for help. With these advancements, I can also turn on and off lights, the television, or ceiling fans and even open and close the garage door.
When I was younger, I knew a woman of a senior age named Janet who desperately depended on others for help with everything. She could not drive, and her handwriting was atrocious, making help from others extremely essential to her everyday life. Janet needed the assistance of people for all her transportation needs, whether at the grocery store or shopping for clothes. Friends would help her with money matters like writing checks, paying bills, and even opening the daily mail.
I am a very private person who desires independence and does not want to break the privacy palisade of my personal information. However, it is easy for me to keep my life details confidential in this world of “there’s an app for that.” I have banking, scheduling, and even delivery applications and a library, photo, and app for reviewing all of my apps. All this intelligent software makes it easy to keep a barrier between private and public information and helps me manage my life.
My banking application has various skills. For example, it allows me to pay my bills by setting them up to be paid automatically or as a one-time payment. I can write checks, pay individuals, or schedule a transaction for a later date using the bank app on my cell phone. I can transfer money or send a cashier’s check anywhere and to anyone, all with the cell phone in my hand. My online financial institution is also open 24/7, so I can occasionally call if an account query puts me in a quandary.
I have food delivery apps that will deliver dinner from a diner at dusk or other forms of food on Friday. In the past, I needed treasures for tipping and papers for purchasing, but that is history as technology has raised modernity to new heights. Instead, I open the app for groceries or mealtime and pick the form of food, where to deliver it, and when to consume it. The application holds my details, like address and payment, and even allows me to tip all with a button. This situation reminds us we are heading towards, if not already, living in a cashless society.
When most people grocery shop at the local store, they can often roam like Nomads wandering through the desert. If you forget an item, a stroll through the local store might give a needed reminder to aid your brain box what that missed item is. While ordering groceries through the app, you will not stumble upon a reminder of what you left off your list. If you buy hot dogs through your phone, the application may suggest things like hot dog buns or chips, but it provides limited hints. On the positive side, purchases provoked by hunger will not happen using this grocery store on your cell phone.
There is an app for delivering a delicious dinner, a luscious lunch, or a meal at any time. Many restaurants offer their menu through multiple delivery services, yet the choice is yours for whom you should use. So the options are plentiful whether you want food from a Sports Pub or a white tablecloth restaurant. Finally, a simple systematic strategy for setting up these applications is as easy as downloading and signing up. It is unquestionably that straightforward.
When you are hungry and want a snack, it is really that simple: just open the app. Find the restaurant whose food you crave and go crazy, like you live in a cave. Merely browse the menus that they offer and find the enticing edibles, and they will chauffeur. Once you have the vittles from the restaurants you fancy, sit at the table and eat care freely.
At that point, your order sets a series of events in motion, all from that one button push that manipulates meal time forever. First, the app sends your order to the restaurant to begin prompt preparation and execute expeditiously. Before your order is ready, they send a message through the delivery app to let drivers know it is soon available for diligent delivery. Next, a driver visits the restaurant and picks your meal up for a quick search to find your house for prompt delivery. While being transported, you can even track the driver in real time through the app’s technological advancement.
Gone are the days of requirements to get dressed and enter a public space to have a sit-down meal. Instead, you can have fast food for one or slow food for ten, and all delivered quickly and conveniently to your chosen location. I was born at a great time, as I love my independence and require no help from others for tasks like these. I cannot wait to see what technology brings us next.
The cashless world is getting closer by the minute.
