BEIJING Scarpe Vans Old Skool Pop Foxing Nere Bianche , Oct. 21 (Xinhuanet) -- The first thing Zhang Ning, an office worker in Shanghai, does each day is check her social networking app WeChat and the weather app on her cellphone.
She takes her iPhone everywhere and said she feels anxious without it. Like most young Chinese, cellphone apps have become an essential part of her lifestyle due to their convenience.
"Whatever you need, you just touch your device, and you get what you want," said Zhang, 28, sustainability consulting director with Yemann Architects in Shanghai.
Using different apps Scarpe Vans Brite Old Skool Grigie Nere , Zhang shops online, keeps her accounts, browses recipes and reads tips on how to keep healthy.
"I can't live without my cellphone," she said jokingly.
With smartphones used by most of the country's young generation, cellphone apps have become part of their lives.
However, the popularity of certain apps differs markedly from one city to another.
According to the Horizon Research Consultancy Group of Beijing, one's habit of using cellphone apps reflects the diversity of Chinese cities.
For example, for those living in metropolises such as Beijing and Shanghai, navigation software is necessary Scarpe Vans Old Skool Pelle Zip Triple Nere , while those from small cities tend to use smartphones more as video game machines.
In general, social networking apps top the popularity list in big and small cities, according to the survey. Among 1,973 respondents aged 18 to 32, 53.8 percent of those from big cities use social networking apps often, while in third- and fourth-tier cities, the figure is about 41 percent.
In big cities, cellphones are also widely loaded with apps for consumption, sports and tourism Cult Crew x Scarpe Vans Old Skool Pro Nere Bianche , while in small cities, they are used more as entertainment providers, for such things as listening to songs and watching videos.
For example, Zhang finds practical applications such as taxi hailing and restaurant recommendations to be convenient and essential. Without them, she said, it's "hopeless" to hail a cab in rush hours or locate a suitable restaurant to meet friends from across the city.
However, she uses cellphone apps differently when she is on business trips to small cities. When she tries to look for local restaurants with the help of dianping, a Chinese daily deals and local reviews site, she found only a few choices and comments. Instead nike huarache grigie uomo , she asks locals to recommend good restaurants.
Su Jing, 24, who spent two years in Shanghai for graduate study and now works for a State-owned enterprise in Jiujiang, Jiangxi province, agrees.
"If I were still in Shanghai, I would use a lot of apps. But in a small city like Jiujiang, my lifestyle is different," Su said. "Without some apps, I can still lead a comfortable life."
She doesn't need an app that offers information and coupons about cinemas nike huarache bianche saldi , as there are only a few cinemas in the city. The fame of good restaurants spreads by word-of-mouth, so she doesn't have to do research on her phone.
Besides social networking apps, her leisure time in a smaller city has allowed her enough time to use apps that compare goods prices of different supermarkets.
But for those like Zhang in big cities, the fast paced life gives them only short leisure times, including while waiting for a bus or a subway train.
Most of the time, they prefer to use social media like WeChat and its interactive games, which helps them connect with their online community.
According to Zhang, her best friends live in different cities, but they feel close to each other due to the use of micro blogs and WeChat. Even though she has friends in Shanghai nike huarache nere uomo , it's not easy to meet as they are all busy.
"It's easy to share your game scores on social networking sites. You are playing games alone, but you are actually not. It breaks the distance and space, and we feel connected to each other," Zhang said.

BEIJING, Jan. 28 (Xinhua) -- Mitsubishi Motors will recall 51,596 vehicles in China due to a potential safety hazard in the rear parking brake, according to China's top quality regulator.
Mitsubishi Motors Sales (China) Co. Ltd. filed the recall with the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.
The recall is for imported Outlander vehicles manufactured between Nov. 15, 2012 and Jan. 28 nike huarache ultra nere , 2016, the administration said in a statement.
Water can get into the brake caliper, causing a shaft to corrode. If that happens, the parking brake may fail to fully engage, causing the vehicle to slide when parked, the statement said.
The recall will start on April 27.
Dealers will check the rear brakes. If shafts are corroded, they will replace the calipers. If not, they will replace the boot that keeps water out.
