What's an app?

'App' is short for 'application', which is another name for a computer program. Apps can let your phone or tablet do almost anything that the programmers can imagine, within the technical limitations of the device. This means that you can turn your phone into a remote control for a toy helicopter, your tablet into a turbo-charged drawing pad, and much else besides.

In short, they're a way to perform almost any task on your phone, and in just a few years they've become a phenomenon.
