APPLICATION SOFTWARE

Application software is a computer program that performs a specific function or task, be it educational, personal, or
business.

Three types of Application software

1. Desktop App is applications that run in a personal computer and laptops.
Types of Desktop Applications
There are countless desktop applications out there, and they fall into many different categories. Some are
fuller featured (like Microsoft Word), while others may only do one or two things (like gadgets). Below are
just a few types of applications that you might use:
 MS OFFICE: A word processor allows you to write a letter, design a flyer, and create many other kinds of
documents. The most well-known word processor is Microsoft Word

 Web Browsers: A web browser is the tool that you use to access the World Wide Web. Most
computers come with a web browser pre-installed, but you can also download a different one if you
prefer. Examples of browsers include Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari.

 Games: There are many different games that you can play on your computer. They range from card
games such as Solitaire, to action games like PlayerUnkown’s Battleground (PUBG). Many action games
require a lot of computing power, so they may not work unless you have a newer computer.

 Personal Finance: Personal finance software, such as Quicken, allows you to keep track of your
income and expenses, create a budget, and more. Most personal finance programs can automatically
download information.

 Media Players: If you want to listen to mp3s or watch movies that you've downloaded, you'll need to
use a media player. Netflix and Spotify are popular media services application.

 Gadgets: Sometimes called widgets, these are simple applications that you can place on your
desktop (or on the Dashboard if you're using a Mac). There are many different types of gadgets, and
they include calendars, calculators, maps, news headlines, and more

2. Web App is an application that is accessed over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. It
run in the cloud and does not need to be installed on your computer. These are sometimes called
cloud apps.

 Online Email Services: Services like Gmail and Yahoo! Mail run within your browser and can do
many of the same things that email programs like Microsoft Outlook can do. After you sign up for an
online email service, you can begin using it immediately - no installation is required. Instead of being
stored on your computer, your emails are stored in the cloud.

 Google Docs: Google Docs is an office suite that runs within your browser. Much like Microsoft
Office, you can use it to create documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and more. Your documents
are stored in the cloud, which makes it easy to share your documents with other people.

 Facebook: Facebook lets you create an online profile and interact with your friends. Profiles and
conversations are constantly evolving, so Facebook uses web app technologies throughout the site to
keep the information up-to-date. There are also games and other web apps that you can add to your
Face book profile.

3. Mobile App is a software application designed to run on smartphones, tablet computers and
other mobile devices.
Desktop and laptop computers aren't the only devices that can run apps. You can also download
apps for mobile devices like smartphones and tablet computers, which opens up a lot of new
possibilities. Here are a few examples of mobile apps:
snapchat lets you easily talk with friends, view Live
Stories from around the world, and explore news in
Discover.

Messenger instantly reach the people in your life—for free.

Messenger is just like texting, but you don't have to pay for
every message (it works with your data plan).
 Not just for Facebook friends: Message people in your phone book and just enter a phone number to
add a new contact.

Instagram is a simple way to capture and share the world’s

moments. Follow your friends and family to see what they’re up to,
and discover accounts from all over the world that are sharing things
you love
