Last week my friend had put up a status of Facebook, ‘I finally got an iPhone’. This friend had been saving for this smart-phone from her pocket-money ever since it was launched in 2007. And this was not just any multimedia enabled smart-phone, it was Steve Job’s dream realised by people at Apple Inc.
One of the most unique things about iPhone was the apps. The applications were made by the third part software developers. There diversities were such that they included everything from celebs news to sports, to social networking sites and GPRS.
The apps today get better and their number gets bigger. According to a rough estimate there are about over two hundred thousand applications present. And there’s no stopping here!
This Ramadan which is a holy month in the Islamic calendar again there are so many new apps that will make the observance of this month smooth for the Muslims. For prayer reminders there is the iPray app and to tell the no. of pages a Muslim has read on his iPhone there is the iQuran app. The ‘Find Mecca’ and ‘Find Mosque’ apps aid the Muslims in on a journey for their place to worship.
And since Islam is not the only religion there are applications for other religions too. There is the Hindu scripture also in the iPhone and the Christian Bible. And similarly a whole plethora of apps for different festivities and events.
Descent is one app that took me by complete surprise. A freefall calculator the Descend according to the developers can calculate the time it would take to freefall to the earth most accurately. And it would also be able to calculate the speed you would be travelling before hitting the earth’s surface.
Road raging is highly ranked free app. This is where you have to amass fuel and compete with other vehicles on the way. The highly addictive and thought-provoking strategy games are also very popular at the App Store.
Everland which is one such game is highly popular at the App. store. The plot revolves around the fight between good and evil in a totally futuristic way. These apps are a fantastic way to make the iPhone so much cool to use.
