Oh Appy Day on Cool Mom Tech: Gail Simmons' favorite app

Oh Appy Day! gives you the scoop on the coolest apps from some of the coolest people anywhere. This week, our favorite foodie mama, Gail Simmons, shares her favorite.

The apps I use most, truthfully, are Uber and Waze in tandem. I’m a Brooklyn mom—I just moved to Brooklyn less than a year ago—and am still adjusting to the commute. Whenever I have to get anywhere in the city, I need a pick up on demand and then I need to know if the Brooklyn Bridge is closed or not—and it often is! The second I get into the car, I turn on Waze to find the best route. –Gail Simmons

Uber is free for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. We also love uberFAMILY, which requests cars with professionally installed car seats.

Get Waze for iOS on the App Store and for Android at Google Play.

Gail Simmons is a culinary expert and judge on BRAVO’s Emmy-wining series Top Chef, as well as the head critic on Top Chef Masters. She is special projects director at Food & Wine, and the author of Talking With My Mouth Full: My Life as a Professional Eater.
