Box is a cloud service similar to drop box. If you download it for iphone/iPad within the next 30 days, you get 50gb free.

On iOS if you go landscape mode it gives you a ####load more stats, including fouls. Not sure if it does the same on Android.
I downloaded it but haven't used it yet. Do you have a PDF converter app that you recommend if you don't like Scannerpro?

Currently using it to automatically upload any and all iphone photos to Free Box 50GB Account for starters.I've used ifttt through their website to set up alerts for craigslist and sports stuff, what kind of cool #### do you with the mobile app? Recipes appreciated.
Apparently it can do all sorts of nifty ####.

The most useful one i have discovered is called Nearest Mexican. If you ever have something you don't want to do yourself and are unwilling to pay much for it, you simply log in and enter your zip code and it will show you the nearest mexican who is willing to do it for like almost nothing.

Well just from this page I picked up Box and ifttt. Ifttt then drove me to Evernote because iOS notes doesn't work with it. All great.
I'm not sure I need Waze since that info is now integrated with google maps. Is there a reason to add it?

I downloaded Waze before the holiday based on this thread and it was mostly worthless on my trip. Heavy traffic ahead on the NJ Turnpike? No ####. But it was awesome at locating law enforcement ahead.

Is there a good shared calendar app?
I saw there was a shared grocery app posted earlier in here. Is it just shared lists that you can put anything into, or is it limited to certain name brand products in a database?

1. Do you use gmail as your main email? If so, just use the stock calendar app. It integrates fine. My only complaint is that I like email reminders for appts, and if you add an appt through the phone, it doesn't do email you the reminder like it does on the web app.
2. You can use "our groceries" for any lists. I use it when i pack for a business trip....I create a "recipe" of all the things I pack...I just click teh recipe and everything pops up...I cross off as necessary. There might be a better list app out there, but this does the trick fine for me.

Yes, I use gmail and use that calender which syncs fine with my phone.
These both are sharable/syncable with say my wife's phone, ipad, or computer?

We shifted over to Google calender over Christmas break and are very happy with it. If you're on an iPhone, you can just use the native calendar manager pointed to that Google calendar.Leeroy Jenkins said:
We use Anylist, and it can have any list... I'm also impressed with some of the ways it's smart with groceries. If corn nuts aren't in the database and you create them as an item, it's smart enough to put them in snack foods.

I created a new gmail account for my family. We all subscribe to the calendar for Dr. Appts, kids sports games, etc. and use our personal account calendars for personal stuff, work, etc.
With both personal and family calendars added to each phone, we can all add or view shared events.

Thanks Leeroy - just downloaded it. Question - I'm wanting to synch my photos which worked well but why is it using the space on my device? I can delete the photos from the phone but if I delete if from Box it removes it from the cloud storage - is there not a way to upload to the cloud but not have it on my device?

Footballguy
Nevermind - I figured it out. The storage use I was seeing was the cache. Once I deleted the cache it freed up the space.

For business guys who travel a lot; is there a good expense report app? Maybe something that allows photos of receipts and calculates the expenses on each trip etc.?

All three of these are great and offer different benefits. Spotify recently updated their tablet app so that everything is free and you can do all the same stuff on their web/desktop app (listen to entire albums, create custom playlists).
I just recently started using songza and the concierge is awesome. They have recommended playlists based on time/day/mood. So last night it had options for bedtime tunes, party all night tunes, even a cry yourself to sleep mix
The 'Cooking with Jesse Pinkman' playlist is awesome.

I use Clear for groceries. I know it can sync between Macbook and iPhone versions through icloud, not sure if it can sync between two phones though.
Wunderlist is good too, I like Clear because it's simpler but both are good.

Anyone use Check for their finances? I'm not sure whether I'm comfortable with all the info in one spot, despite double passwords and single device restriction. I'd appreciate info. I didn't see any comments about it in a search.

I use it and like it. I don't use their bill pay function, but it seems convenient. Alerts are nice. Sometimes I'll get an alert from Check before I get one from my bank.
