Last week was my friend's happiest week because she had gone and gotten herself the iPhone
. This was one of the things she had been dreaming about ever since Apple had launched the first version back in 2007. She had saved from her salary when she stared working this year.
One of the smartest things about iPhones is the apps that are available in the App Store. These are applications that are developed by third parties. They range from sports to celebrities, to games and gossips!
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 iphones apps are not only limited to Islamic themes when talking about religion. For every occasion and festival in other religions the developers come up with different sorts of applications. The most regular ones that can be seen are the Christian sacred text, the Bible and the Hindu scripture the Gita.
One of the most astonishing apps that I came across in a while is the Descent. It is basically a freefall calculator. According to the developers it can calculate the time it would take to freefall to the earth most accurately. It would also be able to calculate the speed you would be travelling before hitting the earth's surface.
There are some normal games like Road
Rage that are popular. And then there are some highly addictive strategy games that are very popular. One such game is Everland.
Everlands which is a strategy game revolves around the evil spirits taking control of animals. And then the fight between good and evil combined with macho heroes and futuristic weapons. These are some of the things which make the iPhone so cool to use.
