Love at first sight.

 

First thing after getting my new iphone was to make a home for her.  This little sleeve is made from cotton jersey scraps and I can easily see through the single-layer "g" on the front to see if the screen is on.  I'm going to test run the design for awhile, and then I'm considering adding these to my etsy shop. 

Since I'm new to the whole smartphone culture (I tried a droid last spring and it wasn't a good fit), I'm hoping you'll divulge all your tips and tricks with me:  What's your favorite app?  Have any smartphone guilty pleasures?  Since I'm still infatuated, I'd prefer to know what you love about your phone (rather than what it doesn't do).

My favorite app is the Kindle one. Now I always have a book with me wherever I go.

LOVE it!!

My favorite app, hands down, is the Hipstamatic App. Also, Bejeweled for games, and there are several very amazing color palette apps (will have to find exact names).

oooo... she jumped in!
I just love my iphone. I've been doing a lot of photography with it lately - sooo handy to have a little camera in your pocket. Gorillacam has all sorts of self-timer options so you can take self-portraits easily. Also, PhotoStudio FX is my fav photoediting app. I found a nice minimalist alarm clock - DYC Pro where you can design your own alarm clock. The sleep cycle one is cool too, it measures your movement and can tell what part of your sleep cycle you're in. You set the alarm as a range of times and it wakes you up when you're in the best part of your sleep cycle. Bubble Pop is my favourite game (unblock me is fun too) and I use Groceries to make my grocery list every week. I am interested to see what other people suggest, and what you find.

I love the Yelp app, especially while traveling. My kiddo loves that we have Geocaching right on our phone (that was an expensive app, about $10) and if we're waiting somewhere, we can see if there's a Geocoache nearby.

Goodreads' app allows you to scan a book's bar code and save it for later, so you get home with a list of books that you might like to read.

Also, our TV provider has an app, so if someone tells you about a show that you might like, you can set it to record straight from your phone.

The case is darling - I'd love one if you list them in your shop!
