The 20 coolest iPad apps foron-the-go
We’ve already brought you iPhone apps to get your teeth into – now’s the time to take it a little more high-tech. It’s the age of the iPad…
![Page 2: 20 iPad apps for on-the-go](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5592b2c91a28ab690d8b45ae/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
PaperDesk Lite… And we’re loving using it to micro-manage our lives. We’ve already banged on
about Evernote – PaperDesk is also useful for organising notes, but it’s all about a
sexy visual.Turn scribbles, audio clips
and images into notebooks and even email the result as
a PDF – the Lite version is free, or you can download
the full version from the app store for a couple of quid.

We already sang Flipboard’s praises in
our article on iPhone apps, but if anything this is
better for iPad.Turn your favourite
pages into a beautiful mini-mag and enjoy on-the-go – we even heard 30ish.me looks pretty
good…

If you own an iPad, you’ve probably already thought about turning it into a portable TV. Yes,
iPads do have video playback built in
already… but AVPlayerHD allows you to use pretty much any format for just £1.99.
Take away the restrictions and enjoy all
your favourites.

We’re hoping you’re already on Twitter – if
not, you’re missing out on a world of stories in under 140 characters.
Twitterrific is hands down the best Twitter
iPad app out there. Simple and good looking – it’s even won awards.
Need we say more?

Okay so if you have an iPad you might not
actually have a Kindle (or need one), but the Kindle app for iPad is
still one of the smoothest ways to read on-the-go. Easy to use
and with syncing to make sure you keep
your page, whether you pop back on your
laptop, phone or iPad.

Making music has never been more intuitive.
With a range of different instruments, this is fun
for newbies and for those making some
more advanced tunes as well. Sample, pick BPM, even plug your guitar in and do it all on the go. Never too late to be a
rockstar…
GarageBand

Ever miss those days of handwritten notes, or
demonstrating your ideas in scribbled diagrams? We know that pen and
paper isn’t actually extinct yet, but with
Penultimate you can do all that – and share it –
using your iPad. They’ve even made an extra pretty version for the
new iPad retina screen.

You can make your own magazines with
Flipboard and get stuck into your book collection with the Kindle app, but Zinio has got to be the
best app for reading the latest Vogue – or your
magazine of choice. And it’s pretty…
Zinio

We’re pretty sure you’ve heard of Spotify, but we
can’t overstate the convenience of having access to all that music
on-the-go.You’ll have to pay for the privilege to have this app on your iPad (while the deskstop version is free), but trust us – you won’t
regret it.
Spotify
![Page 12: 20 iPad apps for on-the-go](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5592b2c91a28ab690d8b45ae/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Don’t worry, this isn’t going to cost you as
much as actual Photoshop does.
Make your photos a bit snazzier, add some fun
filters and fix simple problems – this kind of stuff is what iPads are
made for. Extra beautiful on the retina
screen iPad.
Photoshop Express

There had to be a foodie one in here, right?
Epicurious is amazing – so many recipes and a
handy shopping list function. You even get a ‘featured’ section with
season goodies and some lovely images –
we’re not sure we could make anything like that, no matter how good the
app…

Okay, it might sound less fun… but Mint are making
finance more friendly.Sync your accounts and
keep up-to-date with what you’re spending – and on what – without obsessing about your
online banking details… And even see just how
much that credit card will rip you off per month.
Mint

We introduced you to PhotoShop Express, for
the aspiring photographers –
OmniSketch is for those of us stubbornly refusing
to grow up. The app pulls strange effects as you draw,
making the whole thing a bit psychadelic.
Hey, it’s all post-modern.

Okay, so when we pick a category we have to
have our token choice which doesn’t quite fit the bill – and here it is. You’d find it difficult to use this one on-the-go,
but having an extra display for your Mac or
PC can be amazing useful – and it’s not just for the computer-savvy.

Don’t worry, this isn’t just another app for reading. StumbleUpon is a whole lot more – just add the
categories you’re interested in, from food
to humour, and StumbleUpon will
introduce you to a whole new world of
procrastination.Got to love that Stumble
button…
StumbleUpon

So there’re apps for photographers, apps for musicians… now is the
time of the budding film-maker.
Avid Studio is fast, easy to get a handle on and fun to use – plus at a couple of quid, it’s a
bargain.Not exactly Final Cut Pro, but good for amateur
fun.
Avid Studio

We promise this isn’t just for those times
when you can’t remember the name of that actor and you want
to prove that you’re right (and your friend is wrong)… but it helps.
And it also gives you the latest theatrical releases and Hollywood news (as
an afterthought).

C’mon, the Mars landing pictures are pretty cool. More of that and more
of everything else in the weird and wonderful depths of space, with
shuttle info, countdowns, photos and video. It’s not geeky to
get excited about space… right? Curiosity is cute, in a Wall-E kind
of way.

And if that was feeling a bit too out there, let’s
bring it right back down to earth. Thrillist is the
ultimate weekender’s app – with recommendations of places to eat, drink,
shop and pass the time, this is definitely the top of my download list. It even promises to “sift through the crap” of what’s on – their words, not mine.
Thrillist
