The iPhone has never really lost its momentum with new users switching over to the iOS lifestyle on a daily basis. Of course, with each new iPhone user also comes a set of guidelines on what you should be doing first.
Among the primary steps would be figuring out what apps to download. Based on recommendations that we got from experts that sell iPhones, we have put together a list of essential apps that new iPhone users need to download before anything else.
Microsoft Outlook
Outlook still tops the list when it comes to mobile email clients. It just simplifies everything, giving you a unified inbox and allows you to customize its settings to fit whatever youre most comfortable with. It filtering system is also the best one weve seen so far.
Fantastical 2
Especially if youre a stickler for schedules, Fantastical 2 makes that a whole lot easier for you. It gives you the perfect combination of functionality and usability. For instance, you can easily type in dinner tomorrow with Grant and youll have the app automatically creating an event for you without you having to go through the usual manual process. It also has different modes and themes that will make the user experience a lot better.
Any.DO
Theres a bunch of to-do apps in the App Store, each of them boasting of amazing features that will leave you astounded. But sometimes, its not really the amazing features that matters its how easy it is to use the actual app and these features. Any.DO is a great app that makes it simple to create lists and cross out finished tasks. You can also share your lists, add entries through voice command, sync your information across multiple devices, and so on.
Dropbox
Dropbox already has a lot of things that makes it better than its competitors, but its mobile app takes the fight to a whole new level. It allows you to upload pictures straight from your phone, edit your files, and do a lot of other cool stuff that you just cant do with other cloud storage apps. Dropbox also makes it so much easier (and cheaper) to get additional space.
Google Chrome
Although iPhone comes with Safari, Chrome still provides a better user experience than any other mobile browser available. It allows you to open different tabs, speed dial to sites you frequently access, go incognito, and a lot more.
Other must-haves would of course be Facebook, Twitter, Spotify, and other similar apps that make the entire mobile experience even more enjoyable. No matter what kind of app you decide on, make sure you explore all the other features that an iPhone has. Especially when youre switching over from an Android phone, its definitely going to be an entirely new experience. Also, dont forget to watch out for different featured apps on the App Store. There are games, productivity apps, music apps, and a lot more. Who knows? You can maybe score a few cool apps that are usually paid for and get them for free!
