I have a MacBook Air with a dead battery, so I am tethered to a wall most of the time.
I take photos and video with my iPhone SE.
I did have a 6, but it really cramped up my tiny hands.
My kitchen is lab-like, outfitted with an Anova sous vide circulator, Excalibur dehydrator, Aroma rice cooker, CrockPot, Griddle Gourmet panini press, spiralizer, Searzall, digital scale, Cuisinart food processor, popcorn machine, Whynter ice cream maker, and ice crusher (great for impromptu shaved ice parties).
Communication
Buffer helps me schedule social media, always full to the brim with 100 posts.
Productivity
Timepage is Moleskine's gorgeous calendar app that has a countdown widget that I use to motivate me for upcoming vacations.
Security
For safety, 1Password keeps track of all my logins (that I promptly forget).
Coding & Development
Design
I lost my Adobe license when I left my desk job but Canva is a good, free alternative for making menus and flyers for events.
