The Army Times newspaper recently listed 32 must have iPhone and Blackberry apps for members of the military. And, I thought that I would share my ten favorite iPhone apps for the Soldier and member of the military in your life.
- MRE Info – Menus and how-to guides, everything you ever wanted to know about Meals Ready To Eat
- PerDiemCalc - Now you will always know when finance is shorting you your TDY money.
- Flash2Bang - A necessity for any good artilleryman but also cool if you are caught in a thunderstorm.
- USAA Mobile - Pay bills, transfer funds, trade stocks, or make a deposit by taking a picture of the check!
- PushupFu/CrunchFu - Counts your exercises while you do them and even helps with your form
- RunKeeper - Tracks your runs, walks, bike rides, etc. while listening to your music
- Military Wife Deployment Guide - Pictures and gift reminders
- Short Timer - Now you can count down the days until you PCS, ETS, or the end of deployment right on your phone
- DOD Comm - It is like having AFN’s Pentagon Channel right on your phone
- FlashLight App - Yes, like the commercial says…..there’s an app for that too, and it is super bright!
Favorites for any career…. Pandora, Facebook, Hootsuite, and The Weather Channel
The cool but pricey….Ballistic: Field Tactical Edition ($19.99) lets you calculate trajectory, windage, and a host of other factors. US Military Handbook ($9.99) has pay and allowance tables, PT calculators, and slew of other great info.
