Do you have a favorite or two that you never see anyone commenting on? One you happened to stumble upon yourself yet it has little to no word of mouth or written support?
I am amused by Puzzllotto but I've never read on any forum anyones take on this game.

I like Emergency Radio. It's a police scanner inside of my iPhone. :)

That one is cool.
I just downloaded it myself. Seems gimmicky to me, but after reading the description and the additional areas that have recently been added/upgraded, along with the lower price, done and done!

I've always enjoyed the puzzle game Block-Off (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=317154247&mt=8) (formally Otis as I have it on my iPhone).
Very simple and clean and great for short breaks.

Hexterity is a great game that never got the recognition it deserves.

Agree with a poster here, Instapaper is great!
23 Ways to Destroy Your Defender. At 99 cents, the high quality vids, and great points along with moves from the stars makes this an app for any aspiring basketball player. I just enjoy dribbling, and trying new stuff out, but it might be useful for my son who's quite involved with Basketball now.

Mobile Air Mouse - It might not be quite as good as a Logitech Divino Mini but it works great for browsing and controlling Plex with a Mac mini HTPC. That and it is only $2.99 compared to $150+ for the Divino mini.

Now Playing is the best movie app I've ever used, hands down. The dev also is very very helpful.

an app that I use all the time that allows me to know when apps have price dropped or when new apps are added to the store, AND ACTUALLY WORKS, is PandoraBox

natural cures
I am a nutrition major and I work in a nutrition store, I use this app to fresh up on some supplements and vitamin info. Really helpful way to study. Also has a news section which actually gives you scientific evidence behind some new claims. Really helpful, but dont get carried away an call yourself a nutritionist, lol. (I already have enough people to shut down and just tell them no, you're not a nutritionist)

Fight Club.
Nobody talks about Fight Club.
... Sorry, I couldn't resist. :D
But someone should make such an app!

If only they could get it where when you rank a movie via the NetFlix integration, that it also would update Facebook via Netflix's Facebook integration.
That would make this app 5 star for me.
As of now, it's a 4.8. :D
(And I just use NetFlix's web site to do my movie rankings, but that's one extra icon on my phone. lol)

There are so many awesome unknown apps out there, it's a crime they all go unnoticed.
I like going to fastappstore.com and just typing in keywords of cool apps or app ideas and browse through with filters. The "crap apps" seem to make up a large percentage of the industry, but you can sift through the crap rather quickly.
I find the Star rating system is flawed...how does one get 5 stars with no votes etc? Developers with greedy and big egos is how.
The reviews and votes to me determine the better apps, or I should say more HONEST results. Fastappstore.com is the only place you can filter your apps at all kinds of levels.

Great thread. Let's keep this one going. It's so hard to find good apps out there. The top 25 is always terrible.
iheartradio is a good one. I have one radio station that I love to listen to on my morning commute and when I'm on vacation, I can listen to my radio station through here. They have a lot of radio stations for the bigger cities.
