OK, So I am looking at my endless list of apps and had the thought, “If I removed all my apps what apps would I have not choice but to install again?”. Then I thought, “I wonder what apps most people HAVE to have on their iPhone?” So I put this challenge out to you. Take all the apps off of your phone, (Except those apps that would loose important data, move those to a distant page and move them back to the front when you would need to “reinstall” them) as you need an an app, and I mean really need an app, reinstall it on your iPhone and get back to us periodically to let us know what you had to install. I am going to do this as we speak and update this post as I reinstall.
UPDATE: I was asked by @JNGold @iPhoneDocked what is the purpose of this? My response was simple and a bit long, “@JNGold Burn time as we wait for WWDC, and it might even help a few people clean their phones of unused apps that cost enough for them to justify taking up the screen real estate” Look at our lists as we add apps, after the jump…

- Tweetie
- Evernote
- Lightsaber (Don’t Judge Me)
Mike Blanchard
- Twitterrific (New 2.0 is awesome! this is the most used app on my iPhone)
- FaceBook & Myspace (They’re much easier then the respective websites)
- Yahoo Messenger & Skype (I dunno why just convient to check when not at PC)
The rest I switch out constantly because 90% of them are games.


I will take you up on that offer!

@JNGold That's pretty large initial list Jerry. No games? I guess Diamedic is kind of a game, just not a very fun one
I'm glad I have read this article I have just bought my new iphone and I'm presently exploring about putting apps and organizing the apps…Thank you so much its really a great help.
