Why “Top 5 iOs Apps I Can’t Live Without” and not “Top 10 iOS Apps I Can’t Live Without”? 5 reasons.
- 10 is too many. You can always come up with 6 or 7, but more than that and you are padding.
- 5 forces you to think about it and actually leave one or two you really like off the list.
- Duh! All the lists in High Fidelity were Top 5.
- Actually, I can only think of 3 reasons.
So here are the five iOS apps that I use day in, day out, multiple times a day. Keep Reading ⇒

Today MyCase announced a new version of their iPhone app. The previous version was essentially just a mobile billing platform. You could not do much else with it. But I’ve had the beta version of the newest offering and it is head and shoulders above what they had before.

I’ve been searching for the perfect task management tool for some time now. Although there are a ton of them available, some of which I’ve even plunked down a decent amount of cash for, none ever quite seemed to fit the bill.

When you work from home, it is easy to let yourself go. I prefer to work from home, even though I still have an office, but there are tradeoffs. I get even less exercise than I would at my office, especially in the winter, and I see very few people on a typical day. And it is easy to spend an entire day glued to my computer screen with very few breaks.
I know I should make a point of exercising daily, making time during the work day for conversation with friends and colleagues, and disconnecting for part of each day. I just get distracted by what I’m working on, and never get around to it. (Kind of like when I do work at the office, actually.)

The new iPhone 5 is remarkably light, with a gorgeous display and blazing speed. Those are the first things I noticed in the order I noticed them when I pulled my new iPhone out of its box.

The real question is whether, if you are looking for a smartphone, this is the one to get.
I’ll talk about the iPhone 5′s new features, discuss the things that distinguish it from the competition, and try to answer that question.

I’ve been an iPhone user since the first iPhone came out and for the most part, I’ve been pretty happy with my experience.

If you’re a busy iPhone-toting lawyer, then you’ll appreciate these apps since they make it all the more easy to organize and stay on top of your voice messages and hectic schedule.
