Ten IOS Applications That Makes Your “iPhone” More Than Just A Phone

It’s possible that when you were opening that neatly packaged present under the Christmas tree, an iPhone, iPad or other Apple device popped out at you and you are excited. We are excited for you also and welcome to the world of iOS. If you have been using yours for a while also, you must have been familiar with all of the cool and amazing things that you can do and achieve right from the comfort of your i-device. So, if you’ve got an afternoon to spare and some free data too, let’s run you through some application set that would improve what your phone can do for you, and forever change the way you look at your iPhone. Shall we?

1 Waze

If you are someone that is usually on the road, this is a very good application for you and you can get it free in the local app store. What it does mainly is getting how fast users are commuting a certain road and helps you walk better around traffic, re-directing you if need be to ensure that you have the fastest and stress-free journey ever. Waze is also equipped to know about more than just traffic as it can inform you about constructions, accidents, the police ahead and even, red light cameras.

2 Cash

Have you ever been out with friends, had a good time, then the hour came for the tab to be split and none of them thought it a good idea to bring some money with them? Well, CASH has you covered. Developed by Square, this app lets you transfer money between friends and family for free, even when it’s from one bank to the other. All you would need to do is download the app, register and link it to your debit card which would be charged every time you made a payment. The mode of payment is also instant most times, and the money is available instantly. Oh, it’s free too

3 Photoshop Fix

A lot of Adobe’s premium software are made to work on computer systems only, but if you would still like to access some of the beautiful photo editing features of Photoshop from your phone, Photoshop Fix is here to give you a run for it. The application is not just a useless, watered-down edition of the desktop version as it has features such as liquefy, lighten, heal, smooth, and paint all embedded into it.

4 Uber /Lyft

There just happens to be that one time when you would need a cab badly, and there would be none in sight. This is the right time to prepare ahead, and you should just get either of the Uber or Lyft applications. Both apps are free, and you can get reds for even lesser than you would on a regular cab most times. Watch out for surge pricing before asking for a lift from these services though as prices can soar at these times

5 Doorman

Many people have lost deliveries made to their doorsteps to thieves because they were not there to claim it on time. With Doorman, you never have to fear this again. Simply get the address which would be provided to you by Doorman and have your package sent there. You would be notified via the application when your package lands and then, you can schedule a meet with a representative from the company. Easy as pie.

6 Hotel Tonight

The road trip was going so well and all of a sudden, Pop! You have a burst tire in the middle of nowhere, and you can’t even change it then. We know how frustrating that can be, and if you are looking for a nice place to pass the night, Hotel Tonight comes in handy. The application allows you to book a one night stay in any hotel of your choice in the locale, and it doesn’t even take a minute. The hotels listed on the platform have been handpicked, so you are sure of the best treatment.

7 Spotify

You don’t have to be friends with a DJ anymore to have the best of the best music and every jam you want at the comfort of your smartphone. You can use this application for free but to get the most out of it, you could buy into their premium plan which would make you feel like you had the music library of the whole world. What’s better? It even has a radio option for getting music that you could play offline. The beat is real with this one.

8 SwiftKey

There is no doubt that we love the small size of the iPhones and we would love it to remain that way, but it does have its challenges when typing. With IOS 8 and above has come the support for the installation of third-party keyboards, and SwiftKey has to be the best way to go. With a very rich library, tons of language options and a great suggestive feedback platform, never type a single word wrong again

9 Evernote

Samsung is not the only one with an idea for Notes, and Evernote is making sure of that. Got a burning idea, creative pop up, poem or anything you need to put down? Evernote has you covered in many ways than one. This application can even hold your audio notes, and the best part is that with the impressive, integrated search function, never be scared to lose a note…ever.

10 1Password

The best password ethic is that you use a different password for any and all accounts that you create and with the number of social platforms we have today, as well as others that require registrations too, it is impossible to remember every password for each specific one. 1Password comes in handy here and helps you to remember all of the passwords for all of your accounts. The mobile version can be synced to the desktop app, and it stores a different password for all of the accounts that you have created online. What do you need to do? Just remember one password.
