Here is some more handy info on software apps:

Desktop or Mobile

Pro: Support for multiple cryptocurrencies. They may also include additional features, such as an integrated currency and token exchange. These wallets create and store your private keys on your computer or smartphone

Con:  However, since you most likely use these devices to access the Internet, your wallet may be at risk if your computer or smartphone becomes infected with malware or spyware. Additionally, some desktop clients download a full copy of the blockchain, which can often take up a significant amount of hard drive space.

Mist: https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases (Free)
Jaxx: https://jaxx.io/ (Free)

Browser/Plug-in

Pro: Though only available on Google Chrome, these easy-to-use wallets create and store your private keys on your computer and are always readily available.

Con: As with desktop clients, a web-based wallet is only as secure as the device on which your private key is stored. If the device becomes infected with malware, your key could be compromised.  Highly insecure.
