New iPhone. What apps should I have?

1st thing is to install Java.

Then you have access to numerous FREE Java applications.

Java is the most popular language today for phones, servers, supercomputers, scientific centers, etc.

First mistake was getting the iPhone.

Why, because I chose to buy one of the most popular cell phones on the market? It is popular for a reason, because people like it. I've yet to hear from someone that purchased an iPhone and didn't like it. I know other phones are coming out that have a lot of the same hardware technology but no one has the apps that Apple offers. If you want to settle for second rate just to be rebellious, fine with me. Just sulk quietly please.

Anyone else have any good apps?

I really like ibomber and words with friends

There are so many great apps available. A lot depends on your interests, work, etc.

I don't have many for running but can recommend

RunCalc - simple calculator that will crunch time, distance and pace numbers for you.

Race Pace - will give you lap times to hit specific times for many distances.

Nonrunning:

Shazam is great. Hold the phone near music and it will identify most recorded songs.

I have Graphing Calculator by Gabor Nagy to help my kid with their math homework.

Converterbot is convenient for converting between units, like 800 yards equals how many meters, etc.

EPocrates is great if you are in the medical field.

There are lots of travel related apps like interactive subway maps, plane arrivals and departures, etc if you travel or are in a strange city.

In no order:

Sol Free

Dictionary

Evernote

eWallet

Facebook

RPN Cal

Google Earth & Google

Grocery IQ

iFishing

Shazam

Sudoku

unblock-free

Urbanspoon

The weather channel

Flashlight

Planets

XEmoji Lite, used with Spell Number for Free

Around me

Tasks

Fling

Runkeeper

Yelp

Pocket God

Loseit

TrackGeek

Expositor

Pandora

Comcast

iMediaShare

Don't pay for apps for heavens sakes. Jailbreak then run millions of FREE Java apps that have already been developed for thousands of other phones. It's a FREE OPEN SOFTWARE OPEN SOURCE WORLD.

Great suggestions, Thanks. I downloaded about 12 of the above apps and will just have to grow from there.

Anyone have an app or recommend one that allows you to view and edit MS Office documents. I saw at least one app that does that but wanted some opinions before downloading since it was about $5.

$5 what a rip. Just put Java on the IPhone and it's all free from the same people who wrote the Iphone app that AAPL cheats a $1 out of you for. Yeah, wakeup turkeys, the Java app is written by the same geeks...

Hi, I'm the700miler, and I've had an iPhone for about ~19 months and I hate it. Have fun being locked into the Apple ecosystem! Apple will decide what is appropriate for you to put on your phone. You will only run 1 app at a time. You will not install anything that doesn't come from the App Store. You will likely buy music and video from iTunes, thereby ensuring you stay with Apple products for eternity, else lose access to said media.

All kidding aside, Nexus One is the way to go (or any Droid phone). Along with AmazonMP3 instead of iTunes.

Download Java and that unlocks you from iRansomWare. You can still run iPhone apps but what for when the same apps from the same developers are available on Java for free.

thank you so much!

1) Uber

2) Lyft

3) If letsrun.com had an app I would say that would be crucial

4) The weird world of Jamin

Nothing, and use a pay-for VPN.

I use a lot of the Google apps on my iPhone and enjoy them, especially google keep.
