The new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have been a success in sales so far, so if you’re one of the 10 million people that bought the device, take a look at this article on what are the best free apps you can install on the device to fully take advantage of it.
The huge sales numbers which also helped Apple break some records this year are part due to the company finally joining their competition in the phablet market, and satisfying its consumer’s needs by manufacturing its first phablet device.
The new Apple flagships bring a sense of fresh not only to the hardware and design, but also the software side, with the new iOS8 included, which showcases new features. Here are a few apps that you can get for free and shouldn’t miss from your device.
SwiftKeyboard
The new version of the operating system includes support for third party keyboards. That’s all SwiftKey needed to instantly become a must-have app for your iDevice running iOS8. Your device doesn’t have to necessarily be the new iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, although those two take better advantage of the app due to the bigger sized screens.
SwiftKey offers a very accurate word prediction based on your personal typing style which the app can learn. The keyboard also provides autocomplete suggestions that help you save time by completing a word with just one tap rather than writing each letter individually. You can use the Flow feature to slide between letters instead of typing each letter at a time. Also, you can have two languages set at the same time, so you can type in two languages at once.
Asphalt 8: Airborne
Packing your phone with useful apps that help you organize or share data, and things like that are important, but you also have to loosen up once in a while, so we recommend Asphalt 8: Airborne. The game is developed by Gameloft and it has exceptional graphics, as well as a multiplayer mode. As long as you are using iOS8, there are several iPhone and iPad models that can support the game. In-game, you become a race driver and your goal is to dominate the racing scene while dodging police units. The game features car models from famous real life manufacturers such as Mazda, Koenigsegg, Maserati, Peugeot and others. If you think the single player mode isn’t enough for you, try taking on other players in the multiplayer mode.
Widgts
With this app, your Notification Center will benefit from additional widgets that can be useful. The app comes with widgets for currency converter, time zone, calculator, calendar and even a photo frame. For $0.99, you can get the premium package that includes up to five time zones, copy and paste capabilities for the calculator, scrolling through months in the calendar, and up to five photos in the frame and .
Wunderlist
This is an app you shouldn’t miss out on if you are the kind of person that uses to-do lists constantly. The app comes across several platforms, including Mac and PC, and it makes a widget available for the Notification Center.
You can easily access the notes you write down and share them with other people if necessary. You can color the lists a little by adding files like PDFs, pictures and presentations.
Evernote
Taking notes is made even easier with yet another app, which is Evernote. Organizing notes and making lists has never been easier, and once you are done editing them, you can share them. You can use the app to plan trips, take important notes, compile to-do lists as well as regular lists, as well as take quick snapshots you can attach to the note.
