9 great apps for brand new iPhone owners<article>
<section class="page">
<p>One of the first things you’re going to do when you get a brand new iPhone in your hands—right after you
learn a little bit more about the new smartphone you now possess, of course—is set a course for the App Store. Apps, after all, are what set iOS devices apart from other, lesser mobile platforms. They make an already impressive iPhone 5c or 5s all the more powerful.</p>
<p>There is one problem, though. At last count, the App Store featured more than 1 million apps, and if you try to browse through those on your own, this process of trial-and-error is going to skew heavily toward the “error” side of the ledger. Why not let someone else do the work for you? I’ve polled some of my colleagues for their thoughts on what apps they’d put on a brand new iPhone, and I’ve added some picks of my own. Below, you’ll find nine recommendations that cover a broad spectrum of the things you can do with your new phone.</p>
<h2>Protecting your passwords</h2>

<p>I’m not going to pretend that password security is the kind of thing that should set your pulse racing. Of course, if that password you use over and over again ever gets compromised, that’ll cause some excitement, though not the welcome kind. That’s why I think one of your very first iPhone downloads should be <strong>1Password</strong>. Yes, at a regular price of $18, this app stands out in a world of 99-cent downloads. But consider what it offers—the ability to create strong, unique passwords that keep the bad guys out of your business. All you have to remember with 1Password is a single Master Password that enables you to access your information while keeping thieves at bay. Besides website logins, you can also secure banking information, credit cards, notes—anything you want to keep secure. The app automatically syncs data across multiple iOS devices and, if you spring for the desktop version, you can keep data synced there, too.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2082785/9-great-apps-for-brand-new-iphone-owners.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
