There are a lot of great free apps to download for your new iPhone. Here are some that might be useful for you. ..
Best Maps/Navigation Apps
Google Maps is better than Garmin GPS because: -It’s a Google product -You can use your Google account to sync your data -It’s better than Garmin GPS because it’s faster
Waze is a turn-by-turn navigation app that has been acquired by Google. Eventually, it might be merged into Google Maps. This would make Waze the only one you really need for GPS navigation!
Best Weather Apps
There are a million weather apps and it really comes down to preferences. So, if you really love something else, post in the comments!
Yahoo Weather is a great weather app because it has an interface that is beautiful and all the information you need to know about weather. Unless you are a hardcore weather person, in which case you will probably be spending money on a fancy weather app. But for free, Yahoo Weather is just perfect.
Weather Underground is a great app that includes ads. However, you can remove the ads for a fee. Regardless, this app is an excellent way to stay up-to-date on the weather. ..
Best Camera/Photo Apps
Flickr is a great way to keep track of your photos and also to upload them to other social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. It has filters and editing tools so you can fix up your photos before uploading them to these sites.
Google+ is a social networking app that also has great photo and video capabilities. If you have used Picasa Web Albums in the past, your photos and videos are automatically uploaded to Google+, and Google+ also creates animated GIFs, enhances photos, and more for you. ..
Instagram is a great way to keep in touch with friends and family. You can post pictures of your day, your food, or just some random things. It’s also a great way to show off your work.
Snapseed is a great app for photo effects and transformation. It has many options and tools to help you make your photos look their best for free. ..
Aviary is a photo editor with in-app purchases that offers more effects than the basic ones. The free version has a lot of features and more than enough to create some pretty cool edited photos. ..
The VSCO Cam app by Aviary is a basic photo app with filters and in-app purchases. It uses some advanced technology to add stunning effects to your photos.
Best Cloud Storage Apps
Dropbox is a cloud-based storage service that lets you store your files on the internet. It’s great for people who use a lot of data, as it means you won’t have to worry about space or storage costs. The only downside is that it can be expensive to use.
Google Drive is a great way to store your data because it has a huge price drop of $10 per month. You only get 500GB on Dropbox for $500 a year. My new plan is to move most data from Dropbox to Google Drive and then continue to use Dropbox, but only on the smaller less expensive plans. Google Drive can’t aut0-upload anything from your phone. Google+ can, but the two don’t currently integrate very well, something Google needs to do if they want to compete more with Dropbox.
OneDrive is a cloud storage app from Microsoft that is integrated into many of their products. It is cheaper than Dropbox and has more storage. ..
Best Messaging/Chat Apps
Google Hangouts is a great chat app for people who use Gmail and other Google services. It lets you chat with your buddies and do video calls with groups of people. Not a very great chatting app if you really think about it, but since it’s Google, it’s useful.
WhatsApp is a messaging app that is very popular with people who have family outside of the United States. It is also useful for messaging, especially because it is free to use. ..
Facebook Messenger is a messaging app that you can use to keep in touch with people. It’s also Facebook, so everyone you know in the world will be on it. You can use stickers, make free calls, record voice messages and send free text messages. Messenger is a pretty useful app for keeping in touch with people.
Snapchat is a messaging app that allows users to share pictures and videos of themselves without having to worry about the consequences. If you’re a teenager, then you should definitely download this app because you’ll probably want to share pictures and videos of yourself with other inappropriate teenagers. Good luck!
Best Social Apps
Facebook Paper is a new app that lets you follow your News Feed in a much more modern looking UI. Everything looks better in the Paper app and it lets you follow popular news stories on a variety of topics.
Twitter is a great way to stay up-to-date on what’s going on in the world. You can also get information about companies and products that you might not be able to find anywhere else. Plus, if you follow the right people, you can get great customer service from them.
LinkedIn is a great social networking site for professionals. Companies use LinkedIn to find good talent, so keep tabs on your connections via the app.
Pinterest is a social networking site where people can post pictures and ideas for things they want to see. It has a huge traffic number and people seem to love it. There are tons of different things you can find on Pinterest, so whatever your interests might be, you should check it out!
Google+ is a great complement to Facebook. The posts on Google+ are more polished and newsy than photos of someone’s lunch or babies.
Best Online Video Apps
YouTube – The website where you can watch videos of all kinds. Whether it’s a funny video, a news clip, or just something to keep you entertained, YouTube has something for everyone. Definitely have to check it out!
Netflix – If you have an iPhone, then you’ll want the Netflix app to watch your favorite shows.
The Vine app is a great way to watch short videos. You can also create your own videos and post them on the app.

Another great app for quickly finding local businesses around you. While Yelp is more focused on food, AroundMe can help you find local ATMs, hospitals, banks, bars and lots more.
Best Movie Apps
The best app for getting information about actors, movies, TV shows and anything related to movies and television is IMDB. It’s the best because it has a lot of information about actors, movies, TV shows and other things related to movies and television.
Fandango is a great app for finding showtimes and trailers for local movies. It’s basically the same as Flixter, but I like Fandango better. ..
