All right.
Welcome back to Section Seven where we're going to talk about apps.
So in this video I'm going to go over the all apps section and just cover you know about 10 or 15 of
them to just give you a basic idea of what is included with all apps because in the next couple videos
after that we're going to go over every category that's in here.
OK.
So to get to apps what we're going to do is we're gonna click on activity and then click on apps down
here.
And that will open up apps right there.
Now you can access apps from any of these menus.
So if I'm in chat and I click on apps and I'll pop up if I'm in teams and click on apps it'll pop up
and files if I click on apps it'll pop up.
The only one that it opens up on the side here is when you're an activity.
OK so I'll go to teams and we'll do apps and now we'll talk about the all category.
So browse available apps and services at your favorite app for yourself or for your team.
See our top picks.
So all consist of their top picks.
So we have tremolo which is project management.
I showed you that an earlier video that Polly communication zoom Cisco Webex medians gyro cloud which
is project management smart sheet productivity calendar about productivity gyro server project management
freehand by Invision incoming web hook Zana which is another great project management app.
Images from Microsoft.
So search Bing for images you need and shared directly in a channel or chat ever no productivity Survey
Monkey is productivity.
Get hub which is developer tools lucid chart which is productivity Reich which is project management
confluence cloud which is project management tasks in a Box quiz let Wonder List Project Management
again productivity for task list RSS utilities Adobe Creative Cloud which is productivity
Zoho Projects which is productivity.
How to which is productivity bit bucket is developer tools kudos boards productivity Twitter which is
social priority matrix sales force and mine Domo data visualization and be.
And then Zora pipelines productivity mural communication text score I which is productivity flip grid
live chat Miro and Google Analytics.
Now there's a lot more.
And if I just scroll.
It basically keeps going.
So I'm not going to go through all of these but if you want to take time.
After you do the course and come back and look at all these you can do that but what we're gonna do
in depth is we're going to go through each one of these categories and then we'll be able to literally
look at a majority of these if not all of them and just talk briefly about each one and what they do.
And one of the benefits of each one because like I said apps are crucial for use in in Microsoft teams
to get the full power of Microsoft teams because again it's created really to kind of blend everything
together not just do one task but do a lot of tasks in one area because if you look at like Microsoft
Word or Excel those are independent applications and not really designed to do anything else other than
war documents and spreadsheets and you can do a lot more with it than that.
But what I'm saying is I can't open up Microsoft Word and Excel and vice versa like this like teams
allows you to do.
I can't save files
I can save files in one drive.
But the point is is that this the ability here to add apps to your Microsoft teams makes this even more
of a great product than it was originally because I remember looking at this when it first came out.
And I think it was 2016 when they did this maybe a little early on that I could have my dates off but
when they first came out that they didn't have all this they just had the bare minimum the bare bones.
So now that they've kind of the product has matured and they've given you the ability to add a lot of
different apps to it it makes it so much more better it makes it so much better.
And so I highly recommend looking at the all category to see the top picks.
So if you don't know what you want to use you could look at the top picks and then start there and then
work your way down.
Because one thing that I've spent a lot of time on and I spent probably 12 months to almost two years
was looking for project management software looking for productivity software.
I tried a lot of different applications.
So most of these that I talked about I've tried them in one way or another and mostly on a tablet.
So I have an iPad so I tried it on the iPad but and also on the mobile device like my phone.
And the reason why I did that was I was trying to figure out a way to organize
my my courses but also I was doing a job I was managing 160 Web sites so I had to find something that
would give me the ability to manage everything.
And I finally came up with my own system that really worked for what I was doing but in a lot of factors
a lot of cases you can actually find one of these that will do it for you.
So there you go.
So that's the all category.
So thanks for watching.
I'll see in the next video.
