Thanks for sharing the apps Koundeenya! I have most of these apps on my phone, so I completely agree with you about them being must-haves! One app I’d also add to this list is DISH Anywhere. It’s an app I heard about some time ago when I started working for DISH that allows me to watch all of my shows from home, live or recorded, anywhere I go in the world. I am a TV addict, so I especially love having the app when I’m traveling across the country and want to catch up with my shows from home!
