Here is list of Top 10 iPhone Apps:
iPhone
1. Instapaper
Instapaper
This is a fantastic little app. Instapaper is an App that allows you to simply press a button in your web browser that will instantly store the URL from a web page for later reference. You can then go straight to your Instapaper page and see all of them listed. Sound good? The app works by taking away the textual content from your bookmarked web pages and storing them locally on your iPhone. This means that you can quite easily and quickly have a tonne of web pages you are interested in reading queued up on your iPhone. Great for long journeys even if you are out of signal area. I’ve used this application multiple times a day for the last few months. The only problem I now face is that I have so much content stored on my iPhone, that I don’t have time to read it all!
2. Tweetie
Tweetie
This is one of the best Twitter client’s I have found for the iPhone so far and I have tested quite a few of them. The app does cost money (unlike some of the other options available) but trust me, it is well worth the small amount of money you will pay, simply for the ease of use it offers and the many features it has. There are many elegant touches such as swiping across a tweet to reveal various options for sending replies, re-tweeting etc. I would strongly recommend this app.
3. Shazam
Shazam
Imagine yourself going back in time around 20 years and trying to explain to someone that in your pocket, you had a handheld device that could tell you, simply from listening to a 15 second sample of a song, the name of the artist, the name of the song and the name of the album it came from. Oh and also give you a way of purchasing the song or entire album right there and then. It would have sounded completely impossible, but that is exactly what this app does. It listens to the sample of music, somehow encodes it and then sends it away to its servers which cleverly match the audio your device has just listened to with its massive database and 90% of the time tells you all you could ever need to know about the song and artist. This app is fantastic for impressing your friends down the pub. Or at least it would be if they hadn’t already bought it for their iPhones too!
4. TV Guide
TV Guide
This is a really nice app that tells you what is currently showing on UK TV channels, and also the next two programmes (including digital, satellite and cable) in a well designed synopsis page that has the ability to give you even more information for each programme as well as allowing you to quickly scroll up and down and browse through the entire schedule. It also gives you the option to skip forward to future days. It’s even much easier and quicker than picking up the newspaper and finding the TV guide. It also has much more detail than the newspaper. And best of all, it’s free.
5. Drop7
Drop7
A good friend of mine drew my attention to this game a few weeks ago, and since then, I have not been able to stop playing it. In this game you control the position of balls that are dropping into slots containing numbers. If there is a contiguous number of balls equal to the same amount shown on the ball then the ball will disappear. There are also some grey balls that don’t have numbers which need to be “smashed open” by the exploding balls next to them. This needs to be done twice in order to reveal the Grey balls numbers. It sounds really complicated but once you get the hang of it, it becomes extremely addictive. My friend recently told me that since telling me about it, He has deleted it from his iPhone due to it distracting him from his work. So beware and download with caution!
6. Classics
Classics
This is a great little app and features more than twenty classic books including one of my all time favourites, The Time Machine and even Treasure Island, all of which are on a ‘virtual bookshelf’. The app has a very nice interface which allows you to simply swipe across, or tap your iPhones screen to turn the pages. And once again it’s completely free.
7. Reeder
Reeder
This is by far the best RSS reader app I have seen so far for the iPhone. It even stores the feeds locally on your iPhone and caches them too. The only problem with the app is that it can take quite a while to update although that’s more than likely due to the high number of RSS feeds I am currently following! I highly recommend you get this app now!
8. Wikipanion
Wikipanion
This is just what the iPhone needed, a nice interface to allow easy access to Wikipedia. This app works great and has excellent predictive completion and even gives section headings to jumps between and shows you related articles in an easily accessible menu. It also features many options giving you the ability to change the size of the text and even search within a specific page. Since getting this app I have used it almost on a day to day basis.
9. LineUp
LineUp
As with Drop7, I am also slightly addicted to this game. Once again it is a simple game where the screen is covered with with different coloured blocks at random and your job is to clear them away by tapping on any contiguous group of three or more blocks that are the same colour. You are scored depending on the number of blocks you manage to clear with each tap. On each level you will only get 100 taps (there is a one thousand point’s threshold on each level) and you will need to keep the ratio of score to taps as high as possible because the game speeds up as you close in on the threshold. There is both a free version and paid version of this game, I recommend getting the free version and then if you like it (which I’m sure you will) get the paid version, it is well worth the money.
10. Conquest
This games is basically ‘Risk’, but for the iPhone. I had a version of this game for my HP iPaq which was by the same creator (Sean O’Connor) and it is by far the best mobile version of this game I have found. There are many different maps also, so you don’t just have to play the battle on just the one world, you can play on a variety of alien worlds with different numbers of territories. Once again, I highly recommend this game.”
