Download Top 20 Application For Apple Iphone

The worlds biggest social network brings a tightly honed experience to the iPhone and iPod touch, but nonetheless still enables you to access your contacts, feeds and other important information. This sense of focus makes it in many ways superior to using Facebook in a desktop browser.

2. PhotoSynth
We did a bit of a double-take on seeing Microsofts name attached to this, not least given the lack of a price-tag. But PhotoSynth is a really great panorama app; its user-friendly and fun to use, especially when watching your panoramas take shape while you capture them.
3. RunKeeper
The prospect of Nike+ but better and for free might sound unlikely, but thats what RunKeeper provides. Previously split into pro and free versions, the developer now generously includes all the features in one free app.
That means you can spend no money, yet use your iPhones GPS capabilities to track your jogging and cycling routes, and examine mapping and details of your pace and calories burned. Activities can be shared online, and treadmill runs and other exercise details can be entered manually.

4. Pulse
RSS has a reputation for being a rather dry technology, feeding you dull lists of headlines. Pulse flips RSS on its head, providing streams of feeds that grab your eye with photographs. Its perhaps not for the hardcore RSS crowd, but if you follow a small number of feeds, its a great choice.
5. Dropbox
Plenty of apps exist for transferring content between your computer and your device, but Dropbox is free and easier to use than most of its contemporaries. Dump files you want to sync in a folder on your computer and Dropbox for your device will enable you to access them, download them for offline viewing, and, in many cases, view them.

6. National Rail Enquiries
For anyone commuting by train, National Rail Enquiries is a handy app to have installed. Theres journey planning, timetables and a location-aware next train home option, along with progress tracking, so you can see when a trains likely to show up. Its not as usable nor as pretty as UK Train Times, but it is broadly similar - and five quid cheaper.
7. Skype
FaceTime is a great alternative to standard voice calls, but its no good if youre trying to contact someone without a Mac or compatible iOS device. Therefore, Skype remains an essential download. The interface is simple and usable, enabling anyone with a Skype account to make free calls to other Skype users and cheap calls to anywhere in the world. If youre on Pay and Go, this is particularly handy, but the app also enables iPod touch users to utilise their devices for calls.

8. Movies by Flixter
Although some aspects of cinema listings app Movies by Flixter are disappointingly US-centric (notably regarding details on upcoming movies and DVDs), it succeeds where it matters. Select a film and the app figures out where youre located, lists nearby cinemas, and displays times your chosen film is showing. Efficiency can be further increased by pinning favourite cinemas to the top of the list.
9. TonePad
Virtual pianos and guitars are all very well, but purely digital musical toys are more suited to Apple handhelds. TonePad is the best of them, using a grid-based interface that enables you to turn notes on and off and compose pleasing and harmonious loops; your creations can be edited, saved and uploaded to share with other users.
10. Thomson Reuters News Pro
There are many free news apps, but Reuters News Pro offers a breadth of coverage that makes it a winner. Preferences enable you to tailor the apps output to the UK, and the toolbar provides swift access to news, pictures, videos and stock markets coverage.
11. Twitter
The official Twitter app might lack some of the features found in the likes ofTweetbot, but it does provide a sleek and simple means of using the service. It also directly mirrors the latest navigational scheme on the Twitter website.

12. Comics
In all honesty, Comics is a little awkward compared to using it on an iPad, but you wont find a better comics experience on an iPhone. The app is free, as are dozens of downloadable comics - and once you run out of those, many more are available to buy. Reading works on a frame-by-frame automated zoom basis, and is surprisingly usable.
13. Wikipanion
The Wikipedia website works fine on iPhones, but a dedicated app is a better bet. Wikipanion is a freebie which gives you quick access to article sections, in-article search, viewing options, bookmarking, and the ability to tweet about whatever odd fact youve just unearthed. Also, wonderfully, there are no ads.
14. Evernote
Clients to access the popular Evernote service for storing notes and ideas online are available for so many platforms that we half expect a ZX Spectrum app to be announced tomorrow. On the iPhone, Evernote is efficient and usable, enabling you to rapidly scan your notes and also create new ones.
15. Kindle
With iBooks on the iPhone, you might wonder why you should bother with Amazons Kindle. After all, the apps not as pretty as iBooks, nor is there an integrated store (you buy in Safari and sync purchases to the app). However, Kindle offers a massive selection of books compared to Apples app and the reading experience is great.
16. Around Me
Around Me figures out where you are and lists local stuff - banks, bars, petrol stations and, er, Apple Retail Stores. The apps reliance on Google Maps info means there are gaps, but its nonetheless handy to have installed when in unfamiliar surroundings, and the augmented reality landscape mode is amusing, if flaky.
17. Dictionary.com - Dictionary & Thesaurus
Over two million definitions, synonyms and antonyms are available in the palm of your hand with this free, offline dictionary and thesaurus. The app is fast and efficient, includes phonetic and audio pronunciation of words, and its interface seems perfectly suited to the iPhone.
18. Air Video Free
Air Video Free can stream (and convert as necessary) video from any computer running the free Air Video Server. You only get access to a small number of items per folder or playlist, but some careful planning can get around that limitation.
19. Adobe Photoshop Express
If youre looking for Photoshop-style power, Photoshop Express wont impress. However, if youre after a quick, free, highly usable tool for making edits to your iPhone photos, Adobes app is ideal. Use it for cropping, straightening, exposure adjustments, colour effects, sharpening and more.
