Computers Killer aps for the iPhone? - Page 22

NewChief · 09-05-2008, 10:21 AM

My wife finally got her beloved iPhone. I admit that I can't stop playing with the thing either. Anyone have any favorite apps? I've downloaded some freebies: facebook, wikipedia, sports updates, flashlight.

What are some must haves that are actually worth paying for?

It still amazes me that you can't listen to your music within all apps. That is the only multi tasking I even need.

You can if you use the iPod application.

There are tons of apps that won't let you play your music at all. Drives me nuts.

I thought this was a worthy note, considering this app is usually $9.99. Since this isn’t the 1Password Pro they intended it to be, there will be an update to include organization tools like folders and favorites, syncing over-the-air with MobileMe and WebDAV, etc. At that time, the price will be raised to $14.99. About a week ago Agile Web Solutions decided to celebrate their release of 1Password 3 for Mac by offering the PRO iPhone version for free until December 1st. Available in iTunes.

1Password lets you store important information you otherwise wouldn't keep on your iPhone, essentially becoming a digital safebox. Or as they dub it "A Safe in Your Pocket". This makes it feel a little safer to save things like Website Login information, membership information, and notes. All the data is encrypted with one or even two passwords.

Although this app is free, be sure to take note there are some requirements to get a few of the syncing features in this app to work. Some of these features require 1Password For Mac which is a $40 application for MacOS X. Nonetheless, this can be rather useful even without the application.

From the Developer:
Quote:

Saves web site login credentials, personal identity information (such as names, addresses and telephone numbers), a variety of information that you might find in your wallet (licenses, social security numbers, credit cards, etc.), and freeform secure notes to store any data you'd like to keep safe from prying eyes.
Locks your data behind both a four-digit unlock code and a master password, both of which you configure. Even if your mobile device is stolen or misplaced, your 1Password data is safe.
Has a browser built right into it. Tap a saved login and you're immediately taken to the site, your credentials filled in, ready to be submitted.
[BSyncs safely and securely with 1Password for the Mac[/b] over a WiFi connection, provided both the mobile device and the Mac are on the same network. The sync is two-way, so new information can be easily added on your mobile device and synced back to your Mac! To read up on how to sync you can check it out in the 1Password for Mac User Guide.
Data backup Version 2.1 added the ability to download your data to your Desktop (Mac or PC), enabling you to backup all your important information and restore it if needed.
Copy and Paste 1Password Pro adds the ability to Copy and Paste information. This enables you to copy passwords into other applications as well as copying Credit Card numbers into purchase web forms.
Better Safari Integration 1Password Pro provides enhanced integration with Mobile Safari. Using a bookmark from within Safari, you can launch 1Password to quickly find your Login information, copy the password, and be automatically taken back to Safari so you can login.

I don't like software remembering my key information. I'll just use my brain

I'm looking forward to video chat. Cannot f'n wait! And I've been eligible for an upgrade so I'm just waiting.

That's not due to Apple, though. That's an issue for developers.

apple could require it of developers though.

Silock · 06-05-2010, 01:29 AM

They could, but then, that would be just another instance of Apple telling people what they HAVE to do.

If anyone is selling their 3Gs after they buy the iphone 4, PM me.

Not an app necessarily, but OS 4 is out if you folks don't already know. LOTS of new features.

EA has Madden 10, Tiger Woods, Need for Speed Shift and Underground each for .99 cents right now.

Tiger Woods is excellent. ONly played Madden briefly but it was fun marching down the field on the Raiders with nothing but passes.

Haven't tried the two need for speeds or trivial pursuit yet though.

Right now I am just trying to figure out which iOS4 functions are available to me on my Touch 2G.

EDIT - the iOS4 software drains the battery pretty bad. HOpe that gets fixed. It also reduced the total size of my storage capacity from 7GB to 6.83GB.
