Vocal Voices

My iphone has arrived. It is up and running but I haven't had time to play on it yet.

So I am after recommendations for apps. I have so far downloaded bbc iplayer, bbc radio, a torch and google maps.

What other must have apps should I get?

And what sort of case do I go for - a hard back, a skin or a full cover with a flip front.

Decisions, decisions.

Off to finish my jobs for the day and then back to browse the boards.

Here you go Debih. This was in last week's Observer, 50 best games for iphones and tablets. It's divided into action, puzzle. strategy, etc:

I've kept the article and intend working through some of them

Ooooo thank you.

Oh and the one Jo recommended, we've downloaded it now. You go outside and look at the stars and they're all there on the app with all the names, it's brill, we're looking forward to using it on holiday

I have some weather apps, which I really like. I prefer a flip top cover to protect the screen even though I have that sticky see-throughy-screen-covery thingy. I also have a couple of news apps, and internet radio apps.

not sure about apps - will read this when i get my iphone through the week though

I did buy a nice flip cover thing for my new one on ebay last night £2.99 and free P&P and also a rubber/silicone cover for 99p i think - deffo go on ebay!!

I have a rubber/silicone cover on my current phone and they are great, I wanted to try a flip one and found a nice pink sparkly one

pen thing brilliant

I have the pink sparkly one, love it!! I got it because I can never find my phone in my handbag so pink and sparkly stands out that bit more and I think it suits my ballroom dancing persona

I've got a clear hard back case - from the 99p Store - used with a screen protector. Whichever case you get, a screen protector is a must.
I haven't got that many Apps, but do use the Instagram one quite a bit.

What is Instagram? I've seen the app and I've noticed that people put pictures on FB with it but I don't know what it actually is!
