We hope that these apps prove useful and give you the information you need. However, if your phone was stolen, lost or broke and you weren’t covered, these apps would be useless. That is why we recommend that you take out gadget insurance, which starts from as low as €5.99 a month. Get a quick quote with us today and see how much you can save.
