Messenger, or BlackBerry Messenger. The app is available for Android and iOS. Currently, the service is available in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Semarang, Medan and Balikpapan.

4. YesBoss

YesBoss is the odd one out of the services listed here and is probably most useful for those without a smartphone or who are not yet app-savvy. The virtual assistant is SMS-based and can help you get almost anything purchased or delivered. From takeaway food to restaurant reservations, flight tickets, daily groceries and traffic info, there's an assistant to help. You only need to pay for the service you use, and of course the SMS charges.
