NEW year resolutions are a common practice where people make a promise to do something different.
But according to online tech magazine Wired, more than 80% of people failed at their resolutions by mid-February.
And this is attributed to making bad resolutions and failing to keep track of the tasks at hand.
But in this digital age, there are tools that one can use to remain in tune with their 2023 plans.
In this case, smartphones act as a tool with mobile apps that provide a needed boost to keep to those commitments.
Tech It Out has compiled the following apps to assist SunReaders to keep up with their yearly plans:
- QuitNow
If stopping smoking is in your plans this year, QuitNow is the best app you need to get installed on your smartphone.
This innovation has a community of ex-smokers to chat to as well as daily motivations.

Google Play and Apple stores have applications to help you keep control of your money.
Stash by Liberty is a tax-free app that allows you to save money at your own pace. It has an interesting feature where you choose how much money you want to stash on days when there is load shedding.
