App Review: Bjangos Consume


Consume Icon

Consume - Mobile, ISP, Packages

It’s always really nice when a developer releases a nice, clean app that is also genuinely useful and Bjango’s Consume is a great example of this. Intrigued by the icon? Read on for more!

What exactly is Consume? It’s not a food app as the icon and name suggest but a data usage meter for so many different accounts for many different countries. In fact there are so many, I am just going to cover the ones for New Zealand.

New Zealand Catagories

Under the Mobile Phone heading there is

2Degrees (Prepaid)

Vodafone NZ (Postpaid)

Vodafone NZ (Prepaid)

The ISPs supported are:

Inspire Net

Slingshot

Snap (Prepaid)

Telecom

TelstraClear

Xnet

It also supports,

Fly Buys, Subway Subcard and Fastway package tracking.

After closing the settings page, you can see the accounts you added and the usage for each.

Portrait View

There are two views, landscape and portrait, landscape mode will show you an overview of all your accounts. Unfortunately I don’t have that many accounts but you get the idea.

Settings

The settings page is where you add your accounts, change information for each account, and change audio settings.

These two pictures are a list of the countries you can set accounts for.

All in all Consume is a very useful app. Much easier than having to log onto the websites of most of these companies.

It costs $2.59 from the app store.

I am a big fan of Bjango’s apps, they are very well set out, and have very clean interfaces. I am going to review a few more of their apps in the future.

    The recipe concept is great for online updates.
    Also supports AirNZ Airpoints, Qantas FF and Velocity Rewards for Pacific Blue.
    I have provided details for Snapper, AA Rewards, MetroInfo and Onecard, so hopefully will see if these appear soon.

    Bjango (and iSlayer) have well thoughtout designs and are focused upon customer feedback.
