I love my iPhone and I personally have numerous mobile apps that support me in my active lifestyle.

Here’s a list of favorite mobile apps and games for each of the 4 Energy Types, recommended by people of all 4 Energy Types on Live Your Truth team!

Mobile apps for your Energy Type

As a TYPE 3SM woman, I have several fitness and exercise apps. My current favorite is Lolo 7—it’s the best 7-minute workout!

I’m grateful to our awesome team here at Live Your Truth for contributing to this list. I even learned of several new mobile apps from their suggestions!

Mobile apps like Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Maps, Weather, and list-making apps like Evernote seemed to be pretty popular across the board. But of course, not everyone has a smart phone these days and not everyone downloads apps on their phone. For those of you who do, I’m curious if you have any of these.

I also want you to add to this list! Share your favorites below. What mobile apps do you enjoy most? And are they true to your Energy Type?

Favorite TYPE 1 Mobile Apps

The TYPE 1SM recommendations were all about fun games and creative apps for happiness!

Balloon Popper – mindless fun, great for distracting TYPE 1 children!
