i've just turned my phone into a vibrating massager for free

anyone got any REALLY good ones? i've got social networking ones, tube map, shazam, footy scores, units converter and thesaurus. stuck...

not having any games on it.

Depends on what the user wants if they're REALLY good I suppose.. anyway, these are what I got and use on a daily basis (i.e what I remember by heart, I can't be arsed to get my iPhone and actually look):

Weather Pro - Great for checking the weather during a day or week.
Convertbot - Converts the crap out of a lot of things.
Radio Energy - They got special channels for 80's and 90's music!
Stanza - Best eBook reader in my opinion.
Local Concerts - Checks what bands are playing in or near your area.
AutoStitch - Makes GREAT panoramas from your photos.
Camera Genius - Better camera app. Stabilizer included.
PS Mobile - photoshop-thingy. Not that useful but rather good anyway.
Xewton Musicstudio - Expensive as f**k, but best music-app on the iPhone.
Qik video - alternative videorecorder for the 3GS, "a videorecorder" for the 3G.
Kooaba - Take a picture of a CD or DVD, then get all the info of it. Really neat.
TeamViewer - for us sysadmins. Secure remote control of workstations and servers, etc.

Also, Plants vs Zombies should be a mandatory app on every iPhone, even if it's a game.

Atomic Fart!

"Apps".................sorry, I thought it was iphone papps , as you were.

If you ask nicely, I'm sure James Blast can provide you with some iPhone baps.

Can women not download apps to park cars or get tops off jam jars?

That won't be your iPhone then...

can men not get 'i am a grown up' apps?

Nothing to do with gender - I just don't like "smart" phones.
All I require of my mobile is that I should be able to make a telephone call with it.

I don't want it to take pictures, record video, play music, connect ot the internet, act as a second rate GPS or inform me who is selling widgets the cheapest.

On that note, I should probably leave this thread!

Better than the standard Apple Remote app? Think that's quite neat too!

• Flashlight is quite essential I think, the app's name tells what it does.
• Layar is one of the coolest ones next to Shazam, augmented reality!
• AroundMe finds all you want around you
• NumberKey Free turns your phone into a numeric keypad to your MacBook. Very handy! (you'll need to install an app on your computer though)
• WritePad lets you write text on the screen with your fingers and then turns it into typed out text
• RulerPhone lets you know how big stuff is by taking a photo of it with a credit card next to it. Cool!
• PreSize is a calliper. Gets even cooler when you've got friends with more iPod Touches/iPhones as you can turn them into one big combined calliper
• IMDB is handy to look up movies as the site looks crap on the built-in web browser
• Google Earth and Nasa are nice ones too, pretty obvious what they do
• iSeismo is cool, Seismograph!
• Drinks Free: All the recipes to all the cocktails you could ever think of
• WhatTheFont: Make a photo of something written, it'll recognise the font
• eBay: Better than the website! I surf eBay from my phone these days!
• Gorillacam: Free camera app which adds some nice functionalities
• LightMeter: For the photography geeks, this turns your iPhone into a rather good instant light meter!

That's about it

Doom. Yes.

barcoo isn't available for iphones. it gives a load of ethical info about the product, and the company selling the product
