well just picked up a Iphone4 16gb the other day and learning how to use it. already downloaded angry birds but I was wondering what is a list of your all's favorite apps?

I need to figure out how to surf the web and would also like the app that has gps and the one where you can hold your phone up to a radio and it tells you the song that is playing?

also anyone jailbreak theres? and is there good and bad for doing this?

i've got all the normal ones, but also for the E85 guys i'd recommend the "Drive Alternatives" app. it's the most detailed/updated free version of the E85 finders

Yeah, Shazam is a great app. It was even better when it was totally free with no month limits. Now you get two song analyzed a month unless you buy it. Fortunately the vast majority of these apps are very inexpensive.

As mentioned above, many of these apps are available now for both iPhones and Android phones.

My favorite Android apps (many of which are available for the iPhone).....
AccuWeather
Angry Birds
Astrid Tasks
Calorie Counter
Car Locator
ColorNote
Dictionary
Diet & Food Tracker
Find Starbucks
Flashlight
PicSay
Shazam
Stopwatch & Timer
Store Finder
Travel Planner
TripCase
TripIt
Turtle
UrbanSpoon
Where
Yelp

I have an android as well but a lot of these apps are on both devices.

My top ones are Facebook, Pandora, Shazam, storm spotter location, stormchaser buddy(and tons more weather ones) and I'm downloading the garmin mechanic as we speak. it's supposed to estimate fuel mileage, distance, approx. 1/4 times, lateral g's, and so on.

tapatalk for this forum. Makes it so much easier than the browser. I also use FAAD (freeappaday) you can pick up some good apps for nothing

do you all use your iphone to search for these apps or go online to look at them? also I heard that if you jailbreak your phone you can get most of the apps for free?

SoundHound, a competitor to Shazam, is free on the droid phones. Not sure if it's free on the iphone, but if it was free on one platform, it certainly should be free on the other.
