Are there any good apps for young adults with high functioning Asperger’s Syndrome to learn daily living skills and social skills? Because I struggle with those and I know a lot of us on the autism spectrum do have difficulty with these two things.

I'm not sure, sorry. Personally I think this website is about as good a resource as you could possibly have. There are heaps of aspies with heaps of life experience who have a lot of really good advice.

It seems that the best APPs concerning HFA would augment the efforts of those with professional AND/OR personal experience with HFA to assist people on the Autism Spectrum.

One example was noted on the July 14th segment of the CBS series '60 Minutes' discussing China's advancing progress in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (LINK).

The segment included discussion on how facial recognition is TECH. is applied in classrooms to help teachers determine which slower learners are in need of extra attention.

RELATED LINK: 'Artificial Intelligence(AI) TECH. & Assistive Tools For HFA?' thread discusses how (AI) might just help people with HFA process, and handle important informational data tasks:
