23 apps for your new iPhone (pictures)
If you just received a new iPhone as a gift, there's a whole new world of apps to discover. This list will help get you started.
Welcome to your new toy
Congratulations on getting your iPhone. Whether you bought it for yourself or you received it as a gift, you probably know that there is a whole new world of apps to enjoy. Indeed, browsing a store for obscure and popular titles is one of the best things about using a new smartphone.
To help you get acclimated to this brave new world, I put together the following list of what I think are the essential apps that iPhone owners should consider. I'm not going for obscure titles here, and you may not approve of everything I selected, but the idea is to get you started with the basic apps that will give your phone oodles of functionality besides making a call (that's still important, of course). Just remember that overdosing on apps can quickly become an expensive proposition. Fortunately, most of the tiles I picked are free or 99 cents, but I'd still advise going slow at first.
