If you’re like the majority of us, you want to make the most of the weekend—those two precious days to reset your mind, relax, and spend time with family and friends. Here are some weekend apps to help maximize your quality time when you need it the most!

Symafour

Symafour is an award-winning social app that connects you to other people in your vicinity based on similar interests and passions. Do you have a car club trying to add new members? Are you tired of your so called “friends” that never want to go to the same movies you do? Symafour bridges the gap and connects you with the things you love. Its also one of the first social networks that not only keeps your information private to advertisers, but kills any of your data upon your request. You really are in control of your own social presence for once! Find a cool event for yourself or your family and friends, or make new friends by checking out something different in your city.

Watch Your BAC

For those who like to kick back with a drink or two, Watch Your BAC might be one of the most valuable weekend apps available. This alcohol-blood content app monitors your drinking and helps you make a safe decision about how to get home. Simply put in your weight, height and sex, and put in the drinks you’re having to allow the algorithm to estimate if you’re in the green or in a danger zone. Call a taxi from anywhere and it will auto-populate the app with local cab companies. Make a party of friends and see how much they’re drinking too, keeping tabs on not only yourself but your buddies. Download it for free today!

Launch

Launch is a ground-breaking networking app that helps you break the ice with new people who are looking for the same thing you are. No chatting, profiles, or endless messaging back and forth. Launch will only activate for people in the very same area as you, only when you’re active. You see someone you like, say hello and if they’re not interested, no hard feelings! Launch is also developed for the Google Glass platform, which relays notifications on the fly and unobtrusively. It can also be used for professional networking as well, so make this weekend app a weekday app as well!

All of these apps are free and can make your weekend even better!
