Hi Amanda,

One app I love is Data Selfie <https://dataselfie.it/#/>, it's an extension
for google chrome that shows you your Facebook data and usage (though I
just saw the announcement that predictions will no longer be supported).

We at Volunteer Science also have a chrome extension
<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/price-comparison/gppbmlnjiobkdgpbcmlobgganlmdjhfh/>that
shows you when you're getting different prices on different retail
websites. We're about to release an updated version this week (including
one for Firefox), so if you see some bugs wait a day or two.

I'd also love to hear the mobile apps people recommend.

Best,
Jason
