Lawnmower AppAs a Bitcoin investment app, Lawnmower aims to help you earn Bitcoins by investing your fiat currency. You login to the app via your Coinbase account, sync your fiat bank account and then it goes to work. The concept is that the app rounds up your purchases to the nearest dollar and takes that pocket change and converts it into Bitcoin. Now instead of dropping a few pennies in the tip jar, you’ll be putting them towards earning cryptocurrency. iPhone 
 Android
Fitcoin AppWe recently reviewed this app and this could be the next big thing in Bitcoin. Fitcoin aims to get you in shape – really good shape – by paying you Bitcoins the harder you work. It wants you to sweat and actually earn those coins. For all those Bitcoin miners sitting at their desks all day, this could work wonders. iPhone 
GetGems AppThe app that pays you to text people. While this app deals with GEMZ as opposed to BTC, the currency is similar in that it is a decentralized cryptocurrency. What is does – whenever you refer someone to the app and that person becomes a new participant, you earn 25 GEMZ, which is roughly equivalent to $0.25 (which could be put into Lawnmower by the way…). You can also transfer crypto funds via the messaging service within the app. iPhone
bitbuds AppFrom Mingle, the creators of multiple successful chat-apps, Bitbuds was created to put all the people from the bitcoin and Ethereum communities around the world in touch. Find bitcoin and Ethereum enthusiasts around the world and chat with them about everything related to cryptocurrencies. iPhone

Fold AppAnother app that we checked out recently, and one that is bringing major retailers to Bitcoin. Fold allows users to pay at such stores as Target, Starbucks and Whole Foods using their Bitcoins, right from their mobile device. Overall, the app is still in the process of adding retailers, but once it does, this will be the next big thing in mobile payments. iPhone 
BitPay appMajor Bitcoin payment website BitPay is aiming to bring “one-touch” Bitcoin payments to mobile devices, and achieved that through its Bitcoin Checkout app. This app has even allowed Bitcoin users to send BTC donations to the Red Cross in Nepal. iPhone 
 Android
Gliph AppThe ultimate mobile Bitcoin marketplace. Send and receive messages to individuals or within groups, put up items for sale and purchase items all from your mobile device or desktop computer. Beyond just a payment app, Gliph aims to revolutionize the mobile cryptocurrency marketplace. iPhone
