1. What are the 4 types of application you can create using computers?

We can’t tell the specific applications we can create but based on our own findings, there are applications
for: educational or office applications like MS Office, MS Teams, and OneDrive. that can help students and
workers to excel in their professions, internet browsers like Google Chrome, MS Edge, and Mozilla Firefox
that can help users to find out what they want to search, gaming and entertainment applications like
Valorant, Facebook, and Netflix to keep people entertained in their computers, and editing software
applications like Adobe Photoshop, Vegas Pro, and Adobe Premiere to develop the skills and creativity of
the people in terms of studio-creating. There are more sub-categories of applications that you can create
using computers. But, these 4 are the most common application the society uses in everyday life.

2. What are the 3 types of mobile apps?

The three types of mobile apps are native, hybrid, and web.
 Native is apps is designed to a one platform where they can operate more quickly. Any specific app
you can download designed just for one platform like iOS or for android can be called as native.

 Hybrid they can be installed in platforms but they run in web so they can run in other platforms too also
they are not fast as native apps (built-in apps). Examples are Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc. who
can run through app and in web browsers.

 Web apps have different types one is responsive websites they switch into different design for different
platform. Another type is adaptive and it is scale to fit in different sizes of screen and because of it the
design doesn’t change. Lastly, web apps can’t use hardware of a mobile phone.
 3. Name one application that you are most fascinated. Give the reason.

Mr. Mendez, Adrian is more fascinating about Facebook because it’s complex and can operate well even
though there’s many functions. They are evolving and adding up things for user experience. You can
update and share, get updated what’s latest and even what’s going on in the world through feed. Other
examples are the new features called reel, gaming where you can watch short clips and gaming can give
you videos about what you like playing and streamers. You can also use Facebook to buy and sell using
market place. The fascinating about it is they are using information of user like what they like and what
interest them and they will show more of it that’s why we spend so much time because they give us what
we like and entertainment. While users use the app, they are using them too to improve their application.

Mr. Coronel, Kent Kenji is more fascinated about Telegram. Telegram is very beneficial in terms of
functions and supportability. Especially nowadays, in the new normal, we need to do everything online.
Telegram is one of the best to use in online communications because it can do uncertain functions that the
popular, and overrated Messenger can’t do. You can send compressed file, in which the quality of the file
can’t be reduced. And the Telegram application performs so smoothly unlike Messenger. Telegram is very
beneficial if we normalize using this app because of the hassle-less features.
