The iPhone is such a nice piece of gadgetry but it would not be nothing without the numerous apps. I’ve been using an iPhone (iOS 3, 4 and 5) for more that a year and a half and these are the apps (*) I can’t live without.
(*) only apps that are not part of the default install.
1. Evernote
Evernote makes it easy to remember things big and small from your everyday life using your computer, phone, tablet and the web.
Evernote (http://www.evernote.com/evernote/) is available for iPhone, Mac and Windows and allows you to make lists of things you don’t want to remember. Besides the ‘todo-list’ it also allows you to save entire websites (with the use of browser plugins) in your Evernote repository. This is the feature I like most, it allows me to store an entire website for later (offline) reading on my iPhone.
