My favorite iPhone Apps

I am a regular guy, with a major love for gadgets and electronic what-nots.  But I would not say that I am an extremest in this hobby.  Now, I love my iPhone, I use it for as much as I can, but I don't go crazy.  So, this is my list of iphone Apps for regular people, for everyday type of stuff.  Its all pretty vanilla, but I think every iphone owner should have these apps.  That being said, I make it a rule not to purchase any apps, all my app recomendations are free.  Anything that needs to be paid for is for those extremests.


*these are in no particular order*


  • Woot -  This app connects me to woot so that I can see the daily deal.  A must have for bargain gadget shoppers.  You can find all kinds of stuff at woot.com but there are lots of computers, mp3 players, ipod/iphone accessories etc. 
  • Pandora radio -  Free costomizable radio.  Because of this app I no longer carry my entire music library with me at all times.  This is a huge money saver, because I don't feel the need to buy a new iphone with larger storage.
  • Pocket Tanks - Most times I wouldn't recommend a game as a must have.  But every iPhone needs a game.  Because all of us get stuck everyonce in a while being board.  This game is fun and easy, but always challenging.
  • Sportacular - You want to know the score to a game of just about any major sport?  You need sportacular.  I know espn and others have the same app, but I am very please with sportacular, and it has push notification now, so I can choose when I want it to notify me of my favorite teams scores.  Go Utah Jazz!
  • PhoneFlicks - As an avid user of netflix this just makes scense.  This app allows me to view, add, change, or delete movies from my netflix Que.  A must for someone who has a difficult time remembering titles of movies.  When I think of a movie, or am given a recomendation from a friend I am able to add it to my que right then and there.  Perfect.


I know there are apps like the apps I have described some might be better than my recommendations, but these are the apps I love and use.  What are some of your favorite apps for everyday usage?
