In the “Homescreen!” series, we regularly present the homescreens of people from the social media, marketing, media and tech industries – including app recommendations and tips for everything from to-do lists to small games for in-between times . Today: Christian Kimmle, Managing Director of Seyond Europe GmbH.
Christian Kimmle: Anyone who takes a look at my home screen will immediately see that I have professional tools, internationality and private interests that go hand in hand. Clarity and effectiveness are crucial for me, without losing sight of the fun – this is also reflected in the way I work, in which efficiency and safety are paramount.
Think Global, Act Local
My motto “Think Global, Act Local” not only shapes the way I work, but also the choice of apps I use. Microsoft Teams (for Android) is my daily companion. Whether quick chats, important meetings or document exchange – this app is the heart of my professional communication. In our globally connected industry, teamwork and quick coordination are essential, and teams keep everything running.
Outlook (for Android) is also indispensable in my everyday work. All business emails come together here. However, I use Apple Mail for private emails. This clear separation helps me to maintain an overview and focus without getting lost in a sea of emails.
Christian Kimmle is always up to date
I use this to always stay up-to-date ntv app (for Android) and the Automobilwoche app (for Android). With ntv I always keep an eye on current world events, while Automobilwoche informs me about the latest developments in the automotive industry. This information is essential for me to make informed decisions and always stay one step ahead.
LinkedIn (for Android) is essential on my home screen. As an international network, LinkedIn is perfect for maintaining professional contacts worldwide and discovering new opportunities. Here I network with colleagues from Europe, the USA, China and many other regions, follow trends and continually expand my network.

Safety and practicality
Safety is my top priority. The Authenticator (for Android) protects my data with two-factor authentication. I no longer feel comfortable without this level of security these days. Especially with increasing cyber threats, it is important to me to be on the safe side.
The Wallet app is a real all-rounder for me. It acts as a digital wallet and credit card, keeps my travel documents close at hand, and even replaces my car keys and traditional business card. Everything I need for my professional and private life is safely and quickly available here.
Staying connected is a must for me. With Airalo (for Android) I manage my international eSIMs and can always be reached abroad without having to worry about high roaming fees. This app is particularly useful because I travel a lot and always need to make sure I’m reachable.
The Clock app is indispensable for me, not only as an alarm clock when traveling, but also for managing different time zones. This means I never lose track of my international business contacts. In my position as managing director of the European location of Seyond Inc., I often communicate with colleagues and partners in different time zones – this app is extremely helpful.
Keep moving – by car or bike
In my free time I like to ride my bike. The Bosch eBike app (for Android) is my constant companion for planning and tracking bike tours. I also use it to monitor my performance and always discover new, exciting routes.
When I’m traveling by car, it supports me My BMW app (for Android) when planning the route and ensures that I always find the optimal route. This is particularly useful when I combine business and personal trips and want to ensure I arrive efficiently and on time.
Back home, I enjoy cooking for friends and family after a day on the road. In order to plan recipes and shopping on the go and have everything ready, I rely on them Edeka app (for Android).
Christian Kimmle: About changes on his home screen
Some apps have recently changed their place on my homescreen. That’s how I have it Apple calendar abandoned in favor of Outlook in order to manage all appointments centrally. This saves me time and I have all the important information in one place.
I can say: My home screen reflects the way I work: internationally networked, locally efficient and always up to date. With the right apps, I am well equipped to successfully manage both my professional tasks and my private interests.
