Apps Teens Really Love

For anyone who works with teenagers, you know that apps rule their world.  From Snapchat to Instagram, most teenagers spend a lot of their time plugged into the newest app.  I saw this article the other day that showed the Apps That Teens Actually Love.  Here are the graphs that they used to chart teenagers app usage:
As youth workers I believe it is our responsibility to understand and know youth culture and what is going on in the lives of our students.  Being able to look into the apps that they use everyday helps us to understand what they value and care about.  The overall arching truth to these graphs is that teenagers want to connect with the people around them.  All of the apps that are mentioned deal with connecting with others through pictures, music, videos, posts, etc.  This should be huge for us in ministry!  What are we doing to connect with our students that ultimately leads them to connecting with Christ?

What do you think?  Do you think these are the apps that teens really do love most?  What apps do you see your teenagers using?  Comment and let me know!
