So, you have a nice, shiny, new iPhone… now what?? The following are just 10 of the must-have, free apps any good iPhone user needs on his/her device. If I had to start loading my iPhone from scratch today these would be some of the first apps that I would load. Enjoy!
- Echofon – a fabulous, free Twitter client.. basic yet powerful – Echofon also has a facebook client as well to stay connected with your facebook account anytime any place
- PixelPipe – you have loads of social media accounts, now you need a handy way to upload media to all your resources with one click… pixelpipe is the tool for you.
- TweetDeck – You manage multiple Twitter accounts and are more of a power user… EchoFon may not cut it for you so TweetDeck is the solution… amazing that its still free!
- PhotoFunia – if mobile photography is your thing then this amazing little app will entertain you and your family, providing you with the ability to create some amazing and fun effects from your photos… I’d easily pay $5 for this one but again, its free!
- Waze – if you don’t want to get lost while on the road then Waze is for you. This free mobile navigation app not only gets you there but you’ll be crowd-sourcing data and connecting to your social media as well.
- WHERE – this handy LBS app puts cheap gas, Starbucks locations and loads of local content at your finger tips. All based on location, you can find anything you need, near you with WHERE.
- Foursquare & GoWalla – this one is a tie… location gaming is huge and both of these apps will enable you to check-in from your favorite places and connect to Twitter… one or both are a must-have!
- Last.FM – take your favorite music with you, search and listen to almost anything you want with this amazing app.
- REI Snow Report – if you ski or hit the mountains for any recreational activity (or maybe you plan on hitting the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver) then this fabulous app is a must-have. Get the latest conditions, maps, snow cams and more.
- PhotoShop Mobile – again for the photo buff, PS Mobile enables users to easily crop, rotate, enhance or otherwise manipulate your photos so you can upload and share some fine works of art.
