There are some apps that you just have to have on your phone and I thought I’d start off with a quick post looking at 5 apps installed on my phone:

Twittelator Pro

You could suggest that I’m a twitter addict, you might not be right, but then again taking a look at my personal twitter account you probably are not wrong. I was a big Twitterific fan and then I was introduced to Twittelator Pro and now I use it all the time. I love the way it separates and organises the content coming through Twitter, it’s saved me time and made it simpler to find replies etc.

Mobile Fotos

Written by a fellow Kiwi, Mobile Fotos is a brilliant and handy interface to Flickr for your iPhone.

Air Sharing

Turn your iPhone into a mountable drive on Windows and Mac. Over your existing wireless network AirSharing allows you to quickly and easily drag n drop files onto your iPhone. Air Sharing also allows you to open Word Docs, PDF and many more file types.

Shazam

Ever been in a club, listening to a radio etc and pondered what that song is playing? Shazam is an app that will “listen” to that song and then tell you the name. You can then (if on wireless) drop into iTunes and buy the song. Did I mention it’s Free?

Things

First up I have to say I adore the guys at Cultured Code, their Things app (and Things for Mac) is the best GTD (getting things done) app. On the iPhone it’s just fantastic, worth EVERY penny.

Bonus App

Tap Tap Revenge – just like Guitar Hero only on your phone and with your fingers and minus the guitar … okay maybe it’s nothing like Guitar Hero, but it is fun, it is addictive, it does have little coloured orbs floating down moving lines and it’s free!

There you go folks, and of course there are more great apps on the iPhone that I’ll introduce to you soon.
