These are the only three apps you really need

While there are millions of apps to download and clog up your phone's memory, turns out there's only three that most people even use.

A new study from comscore.com, an internet technology company, found that in the US between June 2014 - June 2015, the Facebook, YouTube and Facebook Messenger apps are visited far more than any others.

Eight of the top nine apps are owned by Facebook or Google - and on average users spend 50 per cent of their app time in their top used app, and 80 per cent in the top three.

That's a lot of Facebooking.
