Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted August 22, 2010 Global Moderator Share Posted August 22, 2010 Back in 2008, I asked Neowin what was their favourite iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad applications. Now with all new applications, a number of updates to apps, firmware and hardware, Neowin wants to know what your favourite applications are that you can't live without! Post your top applications in ranking order, and tell us why you can't live without your #1. AppStore and Cydia apps are allowed. I'll get the ball rolling and say: Facebook - Being a Facebook addict, I need to keep in touch with family and friends and see what they're up to.

Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted August 22, 2010 Author Global Moderator Share Posted August 22, 2010 I took off Safari.. although it might be an app, it isn't removable or upgradable through the App Store. You could also say the same thing about Phone, Text and Maps :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SOOPRcow MVC Posted August 23, 2010 MVC Share Posted August 23, 2010 I can live without all of the apps! I like to keep my phone as simple as possible... I don't even have text messaging enabled on my account/phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it begs to be asked why you have spent so much on an iPhone when you could have a ?10 phone for the same features really (looking at what you don't use).

Draconian Guppy Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 not to thread crash, but I remember seeing once an app that would make the keys in the keyboard bigger according to the letters you most typed or were about to type, "thinkbuttons" is the android equivalent, but what is the name for the iphone one?

instant.human Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 ah great, I love those threats. =) Facebook - I love it. It's a great looking app and it really helps getting the job done. A pleasure to browse Facebook and use it's features on the iPhone. twitter - Same as above. Great, simple app with multi-account-support. I bought Tweetie back then but I love that it's free now. Good for every new user. Byline - Reeder is better. But I got so used to Byline, I can't stop using it. Bought it, when it still was the only decent GReader-App with 2way sync out there. Remote - They really should update it to look good again on the Retina Display. However, I really use it everyday and couldn't live without it. Last.fm - In Germany, there is no way to get Pandora running on your iPhone, but Last.fm is an adequate replacement there. CameraBag - While I also use Camera+, I could get away with just using CameraBag. Great little app. TiltShift Gen - Amazing little photo app. Not only to create that "big things look small"-effect but to add a little polish to your shots. Dropbox - Awesome integration with Dropbox, neat app to use. Especially since I got some important files on my Dropbox which I now always have with me. Instapaper - I come across so many things on the iPhone I want to read later or just want to save them. Instapaper does that for me. Yeah, those are the apps I use every day. Or let's say "most". Plus, of course, the built-in apps like iPod, Mail and Safari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
