Must-Have iPhone Apps For Tech Junkies

There are so many apps for your iPhones. Sometimes finding the best applications for your cellular device can be the hardest. Here’s some apps to impress your friends with your tech-savvy taste. They have high user ratings, and can be found in your iPhone App store.

Instagram

Instagram has been around for a while, but it has gained a significant amount of popularity since it’s been released. If you have an interest in photography, you may want to download this app.

Instagram allows the user to be turned into an “iphonographer” (the slang term being used by iPhone users). You can use various filters on images, similar to the filters in Photoshop (but much easier to figure out). This app is perfect if any activity, whether you are documenting your trip at an amusement park or just documenting nature. You can even meet other photo-junkies and connect with your friends too.

Another great feature of Instagram is that it has a similar feature to Twitter. It uses hash-tags to tag the photos like Twitter also uses (#TooCool). It even connects with your Facebook and Twitter account which enables you to upload them for friends to see. Did we mention it’s even free to use Instagram?

Price Check by Amazon

Price Check by Amazon is a handy app if you are looking to get the best deal on the latest products on the market. The Price Check app contains a bar code scanner feature to take with you on the go. The apps allows you to scan an item at any store to compare prices through Amazon. This can save you some serious cash in the long-run if you use the application as much as possible. It’s another free app too. Don’t forget to encourage your friends to download it. That way they can save on purchases too!

Flashlight

Flashlight is the perfect app for a reliable light source. It turns your iPhone camera flash feature into a light source in case you are walking in the dark or looking for something lost in a crevice. I find the app most helpful when I’m jogging at dusk. I turn the app on so cars can see the bright light from my phone.

The app is free and will be sure to light up your night. Your friends will likely be impressed as well because the light is super bright. Be sure to not shine it directly into someone’s eyes.

MapMyRun

MapMyRun is perfect for getting into shape. You won’t ever lose track of how far you ran, or how long it took your anymore. This app uses the GPS feature in your phone to document everywhere you are running. It even allows you to sync up with your friends trails so you can compete on how fast each of you ran your course. The app is free, so download it and share it with your fitness friends.
