Author: Pandora Devine

Once you have equipped your brand new iPhone 4 with apps for Facebook, Twitter, BBC News, Angry Birds and eBay, you might be wondering if there are any others you should know about.

 

The truth is there are loads of free apps that provide entertainment, news and much more. Here are five others you should consider furnishing your smartphone with that might make your life easier - or maybe just a little bit more fun:

 

Lose It!

 

One thing you might not think your mobile phone can help you with is weight loss, but this free software turns your handset into something of a personal trainer. Lose It! lets you to set daily exercise goals and calorie budgets, gives you calorie counts for a range of different foods and tells you roughly what you can expect to burn when doing certain sports. Online support is also available through the app with a member's forum.

 

 

Real Racing GTi

 

If fast-paced, frenetic gaming is your type of thing, you might be keen to pull up to the grid for some championship touring action with Real Racing GTi. Like Angry Birds, this is a title that has a full version available, but the free version will give you s great taste of what is on offer. What better way to transport yourself from the dreary train or bus ride to work each day than putting yourself behind the wheel of a high-powered Volkswagen Golf?

 

Google

 

One of the great things about the release of the Apple iPhone is that it finally brought together a range of different functions and facilities and put them all in the palm of your hand. The Google App does exactly the same thing, allowing you fast access to the world's most popular search engine does as well as its many other options like Maps, Gmail, Images, Shopping and more.

 

Adobe Photoshop Express

 

While the brand new 5-megapixel camera of the iPhone 4 offers top quality images, there's bound to be the odd tweak you have in mind to make your pictures perfect. While Adobe Photoshop Express doesn't offer the same range of functions as its full-blown cousin, this app lets you crop, rotate and straighten images, as well as change their colour tint and contrast. You can also get creative with a range of interesting effects top make your snaps even more exciting.

 

Wordpress

 

Finally, for those who have their own online blog complete with Wordpress theme, this free associated app will allow you to update it whenever you want. If you're familiar with the browser-based version, this should prove easy to use. Many of the same functions are onboard, meaning you can edit posts, receive and reply to comments, add images and locations - plus much, much more.
