Mother’s Day is fast approaching it’s time to sit down and figure out what you’ll be doing. It’s true that your Android device likely won’t be the center of any Mother’s Day plans, but that’s to be expected. You can still use your device to help you find ideas, plan things, or buy gifts. It’s also true that none of the apps on this list are specifically for Mother’s Day, but they can help you make it the best one possible. Here are the best Mother’s Day apps for Android.

1-800-Flowers

1-800-Flowers is the official app of one of the biggest flower retailers out there. It has support for 195 countries, a ton of flower options and arrangements, and you can schedule deliveries for the same day if need be. Flowers are one of those classic Mother’s Day gifts and this is pretty much the best app to find what you’re looking for if you want to go that route.

Eat24

[Price: Free]
Eat24 is a food delivery service that allows you to get food from various restaurants in your area delivered to your door. This is an excellent idea if you want to have a nice Mother’s Day dinner at home but you’re also a lousy chef (it happens to the best of us). The app should be able to see most restaurants in your area and it’s wicked easy to order and have stuff delivered. If it’s not supported in your area, you can also try GrubHub or Postmates, which provide similar services.

Etsy

[Price: Free]
While it is standard doctrine that making a gift yourself is the most personal gift you can give, there is something about “one of a kind” that still fills the gap quite well. It’s no Amazon, but Etsy has a ton of hand-made, one-of-a-kind gifts that could go very well as a Mother’s Day gift. The app itself lets you browse the entire site’s inventory, talk directly to shop owners, find recommendations, and it even has shipping info. It’s a good choice for finding unique stuff without having to make it yourself.

Food Network In the Kitchen

[Price: Free]
Nothing says “I love you” like a good, home cooked meal and while there are a ton of great recipe apps out there, the official Food Network app has the benefit of having some star power. Thankfully, it backs up the name drop appeal with a competent app which has a ton of recipe ideas from a variety of chefs. It’s all categorized which makes it easy to find and you can even view photos and videos of most dishes so you can watch them being made.

Google Play

[Price: Free]
Google Play has a variety of apps and services that can help augment a good evening. You can rent movies or TV shows, listen to playlists that your mother might enjoy, and use Google Photos to create collages and videos of any events you may attend. Yes, it’s a little disingenuous to recommend an entire platform, but you already have access to all of these services just by owning an Android device which makes them easily accessible. They’re also all free to use, aside from the price of the movie/TV show rental, of course. Click the button below to check out Google Music and click here to check out all of the Google Play apps!

Groupon

[Price: Free]
Groupon can serve one of two functions for Mother’s Day. You may know where you’re going to take your mom or what you’re going to get her and you may want to save a few bucks doing it. Or, more likely, you have no idea what you’re going to do and need ideas. Groupon has coupons for all kinds of things, such as restaurants, events in your area, and other activities and services. You may stumble on a good deal for a spa day or a concert for a band your mom likes. Either way, it’s worth a shot.

OpenTable

[Price: Free]
OpenTable is an application that allows you to browse restaurants in your area. If the restaurants support it, you can also make reservations directly from the application or, at the very least, call them up so you can make reservations on your own. The service boasts worldwide support with over 32,000 available restaurants. You can also explore your area to find something new, manage your reservations, and you can even send messages to your friends and family to help get everyone on the same page.

PicsArt Photo Studio

[Price: Free with in-app purchases]
One of the more thoughtful gifts you can give your mom is a good picture of yourself, the family, and other important people in her life. With an app like PicsArt, you can take those pictures, add some fun filters, and even create collages. The interesting part is that you can email those images to yourself, take them into any one of a number of specialty stores, and have those printed out as photographs which can then be used as gifts. It’s a little bit of work, but a really fun idea and this is an app that can help.

Pinterest

[Price: Free]
The whole point of Pinterest is to find interesting things to make, buy, or do. If you’re stumped on what to do for your mom on Mother’s Day, then this app could be helpful. You’ll find a variety of things, including DIY gift ideas, fun items to buy, and activities that you can do together. It also has recipes, designs for things like gardens, artwork, and other interesting things. It’s worth a shot, especially if you want to do something creative and have no idea where to begin.

Tumblr

[Price: Free]
Last and certainly not least is Tumblr and this one serves about the same function as Pinterest. You can find all kinds of content there, ranging from fun jokes to deep sayings, artwork, poetry, and other stuff of that nature. It’s a good way to accumulate some nice things to say if you’re not the best at expressing yourself and it’s a nice cherry on top of whatever else you’re doing for Mother’s Day.
