Top 10 iPhone Apps Blogs and Sites
With tens of thousands of apps in the iPhone App Store and many coming from independent developers, the following blogs should help make sense of it all by highlighting which apps are most useful or fun.
Seems determined to review every app, although it has a bias toward games. Breaks things down nicely into 148 best apps (ever!), 148 newest apps, 148 top free apps and so on.
Reviews apps in a variety of categories, with business, travel and education making up substantial categories of coverage.
Tech-savvy writers and readers follow every app in the iPhone store, with news about the app phenomenon as well as reviews.
Homepage features news and reviews as they happen while Editor's Picks section segregates apps by subject for easy browsing.
iPhone news, which (until a new iPhone version is released) basically means All About Apps. Good coverage of the newest games (yes, you can be a classic hip-hop DJ) and productivity apps, plus news such as why Molinker and its thousand apps were booted off the iPhone store and how iPhones are doing overseas (Guam, South Korea).
Reviews with an emphasis on educational apps (including fun games for kids). Also covers sports, cooking, music and more.
Developer-driven site, which results in unusually detailed reviews of game, productivity and other apps. Copious links to developers, so if you like one of their apps you can see what they're working on next.
Reviews with an emphasis on games, although some apps make your existing iPhone stuff work better, like one that lets you control music with a swipe when you're driving or running.
Lengthy reviews with screenshots and zero-to-five-star ratings. Blog also offers news and reviews, some with embedded YouTube video so you know exactly what you're getting from an app.
Shows not just brief app reviews, but how many people are really using them. Invaluable for separating the wheat from the chaff.
