I found an app that is pretty damn cool, especially if you travel (or live in SoCal).

iTranslate. It's a free app that translates text to many different languages (select-able). If you get the upgrade, for $2.99, you can speak your phrase and it will translate it for you.

What cool apps have you found?

Deliveries is a relevant one to this forum. I use it to track all of my shipments. I order a lot online so it helps me keep track.

Meh... One of the only apps that didn't come standard with the phone that I use all the time is Run Keeper. It uh... keeps track of my runs. Duh.

To be a little more detailed than that, it uses GPS to map my course when I run, talks to me every five minutes to tell me how far I've gone and what my average pace is, and it plays my playlists for me. Afterwards, I can check it out to find out nerdy little details like how much of an elevation climb I made and see what my pace is per part of the course. Kind of cool.

I have that app but rarely use it. Its a cool app but I only use it if I travel and play other courses strange to me. At my home course, I know every nook and cranny, every tree limb and every blade of grass. I don't think there is a lie that I don't know how to play there.

I have one that's a flashlight. It actually uses the flash on my iphone camera. It was free. When you touch the app, the light goes on and on the phone screen, there is just a slide switch for on and off. The thing is amazingly bright!

...........and of course, my Pandora app..........

^iCloud/Find my device is built into Apple devices. Because of sandboxing issues, this app cannot work well on iPhone/iPad.

There are some lost device trackers for jailbroken phones that work well though. I've used some in the past.

I use Around Me to find any number of services.

Carrier Comp compares the mobile phone signal strength in your area for the different service provides.

Both are free.

GPS Status - use it for everything from getting my heading/speed/coordinates to aiming satellite dishes.

GPS Test - shows me which satellites are where

Torque - data-log vehicle runs and read/clear check engine codes (requires bluetooth OBD II dongle)

Army PRT - build my PT plan

Miren Browser - the stock one sucks and this one recognizes finger swipes

PCM Recorder - makes my phone a digital audio recorder for interviews

PdaNet - lets me tether my phone to a computer for data without having to pay for the extra service from Verizon

Reduce Photo Size - easily resizes images for posting to places like this

Thumb Keyboard - spectacular keyboard app

TeslaLED - flashlight and morse code signal/reader
