5 iPhone Apps Everybody Needs

By Courtney E. Little


Spotify. Don't let the monthly subscription fee put you off giving this iPhone app a go - there are no risk trial offers that will show you just why this music service is the best around. From an unbeatable catalogue of songs with no adverts (and new content added constantly), to offline syncing, Spotify is an app that any music lover shouldn't do without.

Facebook. If there's an iPhone app you're bound to 'like' it'll be Facebook (see what we did there?). The app is constantly updated so the user experience is always improving. Now it's easier than ever to search for friends and message them or find the pictures that your relatives uploaded. To top it off, links to videos and other webpages can easily be viewed with just a touch of the finger.

Skype. As good as the early iPhone models were, it was obvious what was missing - a front facing camera. This all changed with the iPhone 4. FaceTime - a way to make video calls between iPhone 4 and other compatible Apple devices - featured heavily in the marketing campaign. But Skype is the better iPhone app because you can get it on almost any device, meaning you can still keep in touch with your grandmother who has Skype running on her Windows PC.

Evernote - Upon first hearing about Evernote you'll probably have two questions. Firstly, why on earth should I get excited about a note-taking app? Secondly, doesn't Notes, which comes preinstalled on the iPhone anyway, let me take notes? Once you use Evernote and find out how easy it is to attach pictures, make notebooks, and share them with friends, colleagues or family, you'll understand just why you need Evernote in your life.

Find My iPhone - If there's one app that everyone should put on their iPhone it's this one. The app does exactly what it says on the tin - helps you find your iPhone should you lose it. It might not seem so useful or fun when you've got your iPhone in your hand, but if you should find it out of your hands for too long you'll find it indispensable.
