Tuesday Ten: My Favorite Apps

Apr 17, 2012 at 6:00am by Lauren Conrad


If you're like me, your phone rarely leaves your grasp these days. I'm constantly checking my iPhone for work, but let's be honest... I also use it to keep myself entertained and in touch with my friends and family.

I have a collection of favorite apps that I use all of the time, and I thought I'd share them with you today. Leave me a comment and let me know your favorite apps too. I'm always looking for new finds!

1. Words with Friends

Who doesn't love scrabble? This app lets you play up to 20 games at a time! Challenge any of your friends, but beware it gets addictive...

2. Camera Plus

7071408879:Yahoo:photo
This is a great app if you take a lot of pictures with your iPhone like I do. You can play around with filters, anti-shake features and use the countdown for self-portraits (no more MySpace mirror shots please!).

3. Pinterest

6925331022:Yahoo:photo
I totally love Pinterest and the app is easy to use when you need a little pin-fix on the go.

4. All Recipes

7071409153:Yahoo:photo
Not sure what to make for dinner? This app that has over 40,000 recipes for you to choose from! You can search by ingredients, prep time, dish type or choose "spin" to get a random selection of dishes and ingredients.

5. Pandora

6925331154:Yahoo:photo
Pandora is great for discovering new music within your favorite genres. Plus the app allows you to create your own free, custom radio stations.

6. PocketBooth

6925331286:Yahoo:photo
Take1950's-esque photobooth pictures that you can share or print with just a few clicks! This is a great app to have for a party or get-together with pals.

7. White Noise

6925331454:Yahoo:photo
This app works like a charm when I'm traveling and have to get to sleep in a noisy location.

8. Instagram

6925331604:Yahoo:photo
Instagram is another cool app to edit and alter pictures. But word to the wise: everything you upload to Instagram gets published on your Instagram profile, so adjust your privacy settings if you want to keep your images personal.

9. Sig Alert

6925331668:Yahoo:photo
I wish the freeways in LA looked as green as they do in the picture above! Just once. I use Sig Alert to help me ditch traffic all the time. Hello side streets!

10. Draw Something

7071409823:Yahoo:photo
This drawing and guessing game is one of my more recent addictions and it keeps me entertained for hours.

Did any of your favorite apps get left off my list? Let me know in the comments!

      Kayak- finds the best airfares
      PicFrame- easy and clean photo frames and collages that work well with all photos including those taken with Instagram

      I knew I should have gotten an iphone but I only had an hour until I had to get to the Minneapolis airport so the smarmy tech guy (they can be so know-it-all) talked me into an android :( Alas, I have found one app on my android that I wish I have never found. I am addicted to the tetris app! I can't get enough!

      i have all of these apps, but try WAZE for navigation, it tells you not only how to avoid traffic but keeps you up to date on accidents, police locations and citings and where there are those awful traffic light cameras!

      camera plus is amazing! I've been using it ever since my Dad who is a pro photographer showed it to me and said how amazing it is. Coming from him that meant alot since he has been in the photography business for over 40 years!!

      I really like your choices! I've been really into "Scramble With Friends" lately. It's fun, fast-paced and consists of 3 quick rounds per game so you aren't playing for what seems like forever. :)
