There are over 65,000 applications available for the Apple iPhone and counting. So how do you decide which app is for you? Here’s a quick guide to the essential 5 free apps for your Apple iPhone.

Travelling – Google Maps

Can’t work out the best route to go? Google Maps is a standard application of iPhone apps but it is one of the most useful when combined with GPS functionality. Google maps can help you find the quickest route to your destination but you can also search for business listings, get walking directions and obtain real time traffic updates.

Dining – Urbanspoon

Can’t decide what you want to eat? Try Urbanspoon which uses GPS or Wi-Fi to find your exact location and give you random restaurant recommendations. Restaurants are categorised into three areas: location, category and price. Urbanspoon also offers reviews from users and restaurant critics to make your decision easier.

Finance – Mint.com

Want to manage your money on the go? Open a free Mint.com account and add your bank, credit details and investment accounts and download the iPhone app. You will be able to access your financial information in transit, stay on top of your finances while travelling and monitor your investment portfolio in real time updates.

Weather – The Weather Channel

Want the weather forecast? The Weather Channel will provide you with hourly updates, and 36-hour and 10 day forecasts, radar maps and even video forecasts. There is also a premium version of this app available.

Social networking – Facebook

Want to access your Facebook account when mobile? The Facebook app keeps you in the loop and allows you to update your account, get the latest news from your friends and send and receive messages.
