Best iPhone Apps in 2010
Below is a list of the best iPhone apps in 2010.
The Apple app store was launched in 2008. Since the app store was launched, many new apps were developed. Up to date, there are more than 60,000 apps for the iPhone. Most of the apps do not offer useful functions. There are a huge number of apps that just produce the similar functions or simply function as a gimmick.
Textfree Unlimited allows you to send free SMS messages through the Push Notifications. The Textfree Unlimited is a great alternative for people that are unable to afford the SMS plan.
Bento is an app that allows you to create databases to store information. Bento is developed by Filemaker Inc. and is the best data base app so far. Bento allows you to create your own libraries. There are 25 templates to choose from including diet log, home inventory and recipes. Bento app is powerful because it has the ability to store thousands of entries without having loading problem. Bento can be synchronized with the MacBook through a wireless network.
Birthday Reminder is an iPhone app that reminds you of the birthday of your friends. Once the app is launched, it will show you the birthdays of the contacts. The birthday reminder app can be synchronized with your Facebook account. In the address book, you can add a photo of your friend. The app will inform you how many remaining months there is until the next birthday of the contact.
Flight Tracker Pro, allows you to track the current position of the airplane. To find an aircraft, you have to enter the FAA flight ID. After you have entered the flight ID number, the tracking map will appear and show the current position of the aircraft. You can scroll the map and zoom in to see a clearer view of the plane.
Calengoo is an excellent tool for synchronizing your mobile with Google calendar. It has ability to get along with the contact list from iPhone with any incoming evens, and then synchronize that event with contact to make a remainder for you and it also can send invitation for any upcoming party or meeting to a friend group from your contact list. Although the application is not free, priced at $7 it does decent work as a virtual assistant.
Instapaper saves your favorite document or article from online web for reading it later offline. It formats the page into iPhone lay out by cutting any advertisements, flash or banner from the page. And the iBook is one the apps anyone love to read in, so it is a lot better to use that for reading any document than reading it online via any browser. Instapaper comes with a price tag of $5.
When you need to know anything about the weather, there is The Weather Channel app which is pretty useful application that organizes every data and present in an informative way. Everyday weather, every hour weather or weather forecast is done by the touch of your fingertips.
And as an added facility, it renders the probable weather map above the Google maps so you can get weather from your region, and like the Google Maps it can be zoomed into pinpoint location. And all of these are free of cost, of course with added disadvantage of advertisement showing in the bottom panel of it.
Fandango provides an easy way to book tickets online, but it does more than that. It arrange your favorite shows, remind the and organize that if anything overlaps. News and information about any opera or movie is also available here along with ratings and previews generated online from many websites. All of these are coming for free of cost.
There are some of the software that are really helpful in making your life a lot easier, 1password is one of them. It records all your username and password, store them online to access from anywhere, and not only that it also can store credit card info, social security number, bank account number etc. so that you never have to think to remind them again. 1password is greatly useful as it synchronizes everything and store in templates that anybody can access from his iPhone, PC or Mac. The basic version comes in $10 and premium in $15 but it does the work for the price you are paying for.
Wi-Fi finder is a simple but useful tool to provide maps of Wi-Fi hotspots 300, 000 locations in 150 countries. You can search nearest one for you or program it to show you the path. The database is updated regularly to add new ones or replace any faulty hotspot locations. Wi-Fi finder is free to install & use.
Incredibooth provides a photo booth like interface to use the front facing camera of the new iPhone 4 and take pictures in similar way. It also has ability to show pictures in a gallery or share them online with Facebook friends. This app cost a minimal of $1 but adds good effect in taking pictures by front camera which has the greatest advantage of seeing while you shoot yourself.
Dragon Dictation is a time saving application that converts your words into texts. Very useful for sending texts or emails and the word generation is almost 100% correct. Whatever you do in your iPhone by typing in the virtual keypad, Dragon Dictation can do that hearing words from your mouth which includes taking notes or updating Facebook status and another added advantage is it costs nothing but the time to download and install.
There are hundreds and thousands of application available in the market for iPhone but the above are the best according to their productivity and usability. They make your life easier with iPhone and save some extra time which u had to spend in searching anything or organizing yourself.
We will keep you updated with more useful software soon whenever launched and appropriate to be added in our list of top apps in the Apple iPhone.

Oops, accidentally posted to early, was going to clarify.
Dragon Dictation – Great tool, I think that’s a great sign of technology of how we can convert our speech into text messages and other items. Unsure of it’s accuracy, surely a great tool.
Wi-Fi Spot Locator: I’d use this tool so much, I’d think it’s a great handy tool.
Flight Tracker Pro – This is always a great tool to have, I’m sure thousands upon thousands of individuals will need this.
And last but not least, Birthday Reminder – Best tool invented, I’ll never forget somebody’s birthday again…
(bad memories)

These are some very nice apps. It really shows the advanced stage of the development community when such well-produced niche apps come into play.
Thanks for your list! I will Try them Soon.

They’re good apps, but my favourite has to be Ladida, I use it all the time. Its quite a fun little application to play with and autotune yourself. Definitely worth the money I paid for it.
