Happy birthday cityphonelines!!!!

Calling all iphone users.

Tell me, what apps can you not live without? Does the iphone need a battery management app like the droid does? Anything you can think of that you *use*.

Hit me.

Also: how do you change the slide to open to a password?

Thank you!!!!

That last one sounds especially nifty! Apps continually amaze me

Oh and I meant to say that I don't use a battery management app. I haven't felt the need for one. But I keep my phone plugged in at work, so YMMV.

I think ladycat took care of your password lock issue, yes?

[turnonmyheels.livejournal.com]

Yes, she did. I haven't noticed a battery issue yet, with my old Droid I had an app that turned off apps running in the background to save the battery. So far, it doesn't appear necessary with the iphone.

Yeah, on the iPhone they just kind of sit "inactive" if they're open. Exceptions would be facebook and twitter apps if you're a super heavy user maybe. But you aren't. Bluetooth will drain your battery, so if you don't use a Bluetooth device, turn the feature off in Settings. And I keep WiFi turned off unless i'm actually using it (at home or somewhere else). And then screen brightness; I keep mine fairly low (I figure I can always turn it up if I'm looking at something that's difficult to see).
