Hey everyone, I’m new to this forum. I just switched and got my first iPhone (5) the other day, so far so good! I switched from a Galaxy S2! What are the essentials beyond a case? Thanks in advance for the advice!

Some say a case is not needed, but beyond that, turn on icloud and find my phone. The app store will offer several apps, after you have opened it up a few times. Most of those are nice to have.

have fun, it is a great device.
 
I'd add as well get a spare charger, one to keep at work, in your bag etc., also a car charger if you drive. Maybe something like a Mophie charging case could be handy too. Think I'm a bit paranoid about running out of charge! Always good to have a backup though :)
 
Thanks everyone! Appreciate your input and advice. @From A Buick 8 Good point on the case, I had a Best Skins Ever on my S2 and ordered one for my iPhone and that worked really well before without a case.

Keep 'em comin!
