On July 10 at the stroke of 8pm, Apple launched its 3rd rendition of the popular iPhone, the 3Gs. To be number 1 in queue, you had to start queuing more than 11 hours before the launch. Of course we hear that the 3GS is now out of stock. There is no denying the popularity of this phone. One of its main features is the applications which can be easily downloaded from iTunes. To date there are more than 65,000 apps with more than 1,500,000,000 being downloaded! There are endless apps to be downloaded but how can you tell the useless from the useful? For us the basic criterion is: the app has to be FREE. Accordingly, Singapore Top 10 brings you the top 10 free iPhone apps for Singaporeans!
SG 4D / SG Toto / SG Pools – Soccer Odds
SG4D and SG Toto provides latest results for those folks who have bought “hope”. Keying in your lucky number in the analyze section will provide instant previous results. Those into soccer betting, will find SG Pools – Soccer Odds app useful with odds from the latest soccer matches. The SGTOP10 team wishes everyone good luck, but remember that too much of anything is bad. Keep it in moderation
OCBC banking App
This is an app which we find very useful. It allows users to be able to carry out their internet bank transactions from their iPhone. Users are able to pay bills, carry out inter-bank transfers and check their balances. However, when upgrading software for iPhone, or reinstalling this app, users will need to go re-authenticate the key at an ATM. But overall it is a “must have” if you own a OCBC bank account.
SG Wireless
Traditionally we are hesitant to use GPRS or 3G data services because it can burn a hole in your pocket. Prices have gone down drastically for these data plans, however it is still not as cheap as being free. One great feature of iPhone is that it is WiFi enabled. With this capability users can make use of the FREE SG wireless service. SG wireless service can be found through out Singapore. This app helps to manage the wireless connection and ensures that users are always connected to SG Wireless whenever possible.
Locacity
Have you ever had issues locating that nearest 7-eleven, AXS machine, ATMs, or Petrol Kiosk? Download Locacity! This app will make use of iPhone location update services to determine which of the above services can be found within a XX km radius.
The Straits Times Razor TV
If you ever get bored with YouTube, try out this app. It showcases videos on local happenings, YouTube style.
SGMalls
This app has a huge collection of Singapore shopping mall directories. It is able to tell you the nearest mall and its associated mall directory, based on the location update service. We find it really useful when searching for a particular shop’s address. Users can make use of this to find out phone numbers of the resturants for reservation.
iCabSG
iCabSG, stores the numbers of all the taxi companies. There is no longer a need to memorise or store these numbers.
Carpark@SG
With the Carpark@SG app, users can locate a carpark and also avoid paying ridiculous amount of money for parking. Carpark@SG app uses location update to provide information on the nearest carpark and displays the carpark rates.
iGV
We find this particular app very useful for movie goers. Users can use this app to browse for the latest and up coming movies in golden village cinemas. Sign up with the app and you will be able to purchase / book tickets instantly.
HungryGoWhere
Singapore is known for its food. Tourists come to Singapore just to try our local delicacies. However being Singaporean, how often do we find ourselves in a situation with our partners, wondering where to have dinner? We like this app, NOT because it is able to provide reviews, help us locate the nearest eatery, or search for places to satisfy a particular culinary craving, but because this is the app that will make us look knowledgeable to our hungry overseas friends or save the day when you and your partner are “stuck”on deciding what to eat for dinner.
