Recently I was given an IPod Touch 4g. This was my first exposure to IOS, so, When I first started using the IPod Touch, I went crazy downloading every free app I could find. I quickly suffered "app overload" and was overwhelmed. I ended up deleted most of the apps I downloaded, finding most of them a waste of space, lol, and have settled upon a selection of apps that are useful to me.
Here is a small selection of the apps I use most:
1) Podcaster.fm - this is the only app I've purchased so far. I find it very useful for automatically downloading podcasts directly to my IPod. (I'm up to over 2 dozen podcast feeds now, lol).
2) MLB.TV - I'm a huge baseball fan, enough said.
3) Flipboard - I great way to browse web content. I use to use Google Reader for most of my daily rss feeds, now I use this.
4) IheartRadio - Mostly useful for me to listen to an AM radio station in Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm from Ohio and now live in Pennsylvania, so it gives me a feeling of being back home.
5) Logmein.com - Since I frequently need to connect to my computer at work, this is a huge help when I'm already tucked into bed, lol. I also take the IPod to work and frequently use a Telnet app to connect to the server there and do quick fixes on the spot.
6) Pocket - For bookmarking web content that I want to check out later.
Of course I have lots of other apps in Folders that I still need to test, including Entertainment apps like Netflix,Hulu, and Crackle, I have apps for three cloud storage services so far, Dropbox, Skydrive, and Box.net. I'm really not that into IOS gaming yet, aside form a few games of angry birds, and I don't use Social media, so Facebook and Twitter are not on my IPod.
So, What IOS apps do you use most or find the most useful?
