Recommended iPhone4 apps

[Rod Stroker]

I realise there is already a thread on iphone apps but it's getting a bit long in the tooth and is pre-i4.

I've had my i4 for just over a month now and this is my first contribution to the apple share price, so can anyone recommend any decent apps for the i4, perhaps apps that exploit the awesome display? Games suggestions are also welcome.

The ones I've used the most so far are:
WhatsApp (http://www.whatsapp.com/)
Runmeter (http://www.abvio.com/runmeter/)
TuneIn Radio (http://www.tunein-radio.com/index.html)
Sleep Cycle (http://www.mdlabs.se/sleepcycle/)
Guitar Tools (http://reviews.cnet.com/2300-6454_7-10004133-5.html)
Flashlight (http://www.iphoneappfreelancer.com/blog/5025)
Angry Birds (http://www.rovio.com/index.php?page=angry-birds)
Briscola Pro (http://www.iphoneappsplus.com/games/briscola-pro/index.htm)

A guy at work had this F1GP racing game where you hold the phone as if you were holding the steering wheel and have to turn it like it's a steering wheel in order to get around the corners. Anyone know what game it is?

I believe it's Red Bull Racing Challenge. That's what I've got anyway. go about 6 circuits loosely based on different tracks (ie. Monaco, Silverstone etc.).

It was actually something similar - the BMW Racing Challenge - but yeah, same concept.

So can you recommend any apps? I've recently added a few more to my list:
Knocking (video calls)
AroundMe
Camera plus pro
Translator
Speed Test
Labyrinth

Tune in radio is great, great to listen to the footy live as well. You just have to type in the afl live stream url links.

That's only if you're not at the game. At the game it's around 30 seconds behind.

How do you find the sleep cycle app Rod?

Not Installous?

I've only used it once, it did what it said it would do, wake me within a 30 minute window of when I set my alarm, but I didn't really feel any difference energy wise as a result of being woken at the "optimal" time. I probably need to use it a few more times before making a judgment call on it.

Any more apps people can recommend?

Genius Scan looks the goods, take a photo of a document, whiteboard, etc. and it'll sharpen it up and convert to a pdf.

Not specific to IPhone 4 but "Build a Lot" is a great game. I got it for free last month in the Free App for a day feature and could not put it down when i got it and is very addictive.

I am just waiting for Build a Lot 2 to come down in $$$ a bit and i will get that as well!!
