Top iPhone Applications

Numerous apps are in the store, many are useless and others are buggy, but there are a few that make the whole app thing worthwhile. After wading through light sabers, flashlights and a staple simulator, here are some programs that are actually worth downloading.

Yelp

  • Print

Find nearby restaurants, bars and banks using the iPhone's built-in GPS. Yelp offers thousands of reviews from its regular-Joe users, who are passionate about their favorite spots to eat and drink. Yelp isn't alone: UrbanSpoon offers a similarly helpful local eatery locator, and later this year Vindigo, a top-notch service that culls professional reviews, plans to release its own iPhone app.
