Productivity
(free application)
Remember Everything is an Evernote's product - mantra sums up this clever little app quite nicely. Your phone becomes an ultimate digital archive by collecting snapshots, written notes and voice recording, then making them all available with a simple search – from your PC or your phone whichever you choose. Character recognition performed by Evernote actually makes the text in photos you shoot, like a concert poster or business card, into searchable text, no typing needed. For those of us cursed with a decidedly non-elephant-like memory, Evernote makes a killer digital substitute.
Pocket Informant
Price: $12.99
A calendar and to-do list merge in one of the most powerful scheduling and task management apps out there. True, not everyone needs the sort of heavy lifting and micromanagement this app allows, but if you do, there’s none quite like it. Syncing with Google Calendar seals the deal by allows appointments to be easily added and modified from a PC then displayed on the phone.
Air To-Do
Price: $1.99
There are a plethora of to-do list apps out there, and most of the well rated ones are going to accomplish exactly what you need. Still, the Air To-Do app has a sleek UI that doesn’t jumble your chores together, instead allowing you to control how you organize them. You can also check off your list with boxes to mark it something has been completed, versus others that simply delete a task.
CraigsPro+
Price: $1.99
Craigslist is a treasure trove of freebies and rarities for cheap, but good luck scoring that free hot tub, cheap air conditioner or the only pair of Klipschhorn speakers in your city if you’re not one of the very first to respond. CraigsPro+ gives you a leg up on the competition by letting you set up Search Agents that buzz your phone as soon as an item you’ve been searching for crops up. Combine it with a swift e-mail and that 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT will be yours. You only get 50 of these search alerts with purchase, but snagging more is as cheap as a tenth of a cent apiece. (CraigsPro+ uses remote servers to continuously scour Craigslist for your search terms then sends push alerts when it scores a hit, rather than grinding your phone battery down. The price goes to reimbursing those expenses.)
Google Voice
(free application)
At first Google Voice was not technically an “app” because Google had to subvert Apple’s iTunes store by building it into the Web. But Apple finally let it through and now you can get the official Google Voice apps from the App store. With it, you can make cheap international calls at Google Voice rates, send free unlimited text messages, and even sift through voicemails left at your Google Voice number, all for free.
