Apps for the iPhone

It is about one year ago that I acquired my first iPhone. It replaced my previous toy which has moved on to a better world. Since then I have been playing around with it, and today it has more or less the apps I like, and need.

For the benefit of future reference, and for those of you who might think it useful, I will discuss what I am currently using.

For starters the iPod-function makes it possible to bring my favourite music with me, although I evade the use of iTunes to sync my music, and as it has an adequate camera-funtion I take my pictures with it too.

The apps I have put in seperate "folders," below I reproduced their names and contents:

Utilities

• App Store (for searching and downloading apps)
• Settings (to personalise the iPhone)
• Compass (fun, but not sure if it can replace the real thing)
• Clock (helps me get up in the morning)
• Battery Life (nice )
• Flashlight (when your skulking around in the dark this will add some light)
• Wi-Fi Finder (great for finding free spots, CAVE: phonebill when abroad)
• Handy Level
