13 iPhone applications that will be a great help in an everyday life

iPhone is primarily designed for communication purposes, therefore the most necessary applications have to make it even more comfortable. At the same time, we want our smart gadget to be a great help while we travel, study or seek for an entertainment. Today Apple App Store consists of thousands of applications and most of them are completely free. We’ve made our research and selected 13 applications, which may be useful in everyday life.

1.Snapseed

Even couple of years ago high-quality photo editing was possible only with the help of a computer, but today this process takes a minimum of time and can be done directly on a mobile device. Snapseed is one of the best free apps for iPhone (and not only, as it was actually created by Google) that copes with this task perfectly.
Unlike very popular Instagram, which offers a very limited number of filters, Snapseed allows to thoroughly edit an image. After making changes to the pictures, you can also save the list of corrections made and transfer these changes to other pictures. Snapseed is able to trim and fit the image to the desired size or frame format.

Dropbox is another great app for those who deal with tons of documents. Dropbox helps to place files on a reliable server with an anytime access to them.

Thus, you can view, edit, copy and delete documents, movies, photos and other data as if they are on your device. But in fact, it will be stored somewhere on the Web. You will have an individual access to your data but can also share it with others through a unique link to a particular file.
