The "My Favorite iPad Apps" Thread

Sleazy E said:
One gripe about the Scrabble app is the lack of online multiplayer. Words With Friends is an amazing app because of it... not sure why Scrabble is lacking this ability. It makes it from being a perfect app.

Scrabble will let you play online with Facebook friends. It works very well.

I bought Words with Friends. Playing with strangers who take days to make a move or finish a game isn't too much fun. I'm playing with someone now on a game that started over a week ago. 22 letters left and painfully counting down the time.
I might get Scrabble and play against the computer or friends.

Words with Friends is my favorite game on the iPhone and also on the iPad. You just need to invite more people to more games so you can have quite a few going concurrently. I'm lucky enough that a lot of my friends and my dad and my brother also play the game, so I always have moves to play!

Also highly recommend Geometry Wars and Zen Bound 2. Gorgeous games.
 
I am now officially in LOVE with Air Video for iPad!!!! It literally took me like 4 minutes to get set up and stream one of my movies From my laptop to my iPad with only 15 seconds of loading. The movie played perfectly. I only have 16 gb on my iPad so this Air Video app is a Godsend. One of the best apps ever.

Guess it makes sense. I just don't know anyone with Words with Friends to play with. I have multiple games going on but still with strangers :eek:
I'll check out your recommendations. Thanks :)

It's not about friends vs. strangers for me, it just sounds about as interesting as watching paint dry. To each their own.

Do you not have friends with iPhones? I haven't played a stranger yet. But I have 8 games going with friends and family and we make a few moves each day in each game. Keeps it fun and lively.

Actually I only know two people who own iPhones and neither of them play games. Sounds like you're having a ball though :)
 
I've been holding off on games to see if the prices dropped. I really want PVZ and I'm about to give in and buy it since it hasn't dropped yet. I'm sure once I buy it it will go down to 4.99.

I sort of have as well...... but really, I've been so busy entertaining myself with all of the other functions, that I haven't really had time to play many games anyway!:D

I use the ESV Study Bible that I purchased via Kindle Store. VERY Nice. I just wish there was a better search for chapter and verse.

You can also get the one from the iBooks Store, it's free. I got the King James one, but there are a lot more versions. It's the full thing (14,500 pages). No wifi needed after you get it.

Now, if only I would actually read it.

iFish Pond HD is like a mix of Koi Pond and a fishing game. Love the gorgeous graphics and the fishing.
http://appshopper.com/link/ifish-pond-hd

NOTE: To cast and hook, physically jerk the iPad like it's a real fishing rod.

Immerse yourself in an entirely new pond experience. Listen to the soothing forest ambience. Drag your fingers across the water and see the ripples bounce up and down. Flick your wrist to cast the rod. Keep your eye on the bobber. Watch the fish nibble. Quick! Pull back to hook it! Reel it in and admire your catch. Catch enough and you'll unlock fantastic interactive creatures. Don't feel like fishing? Put the rod away and just enjoy the sounds and play with the pond life. Touch twice to feed the koi. Everything is beautifully rendered to provide a fully realistic setting.

Features:
- The best interactive water effects to date
- Fully interactive fish
- Fishing!
- Multiple unlocks and records
- Stereo sound effects (use headphones for full immersion)
- Four different settings including ambient background noises

From the makers of the smash hits iFish, iHunt, and iHunt 3D comes a brand new fishing experience for the iPad.

Where are you from? At the time of posting that, it was still .99 in the US. I just checked and it's still on sale in the US app store but I guess not outside of the states.
 
Still waiting

I keep looking at the apps, and downloading some as I await my 3G.
I would like to know the best App to get into my laptop, and G5, also anything to do with video streaming. I plan to be a little better wit apps then with my iPhone, I downloaded every app at the start and have way to many.
