Like a 99 without a flake or an It Girl without a pug, a smartphone cannot live without its apps, and you cannot live without your smartphone. Whether used as a handy tool for information or for sheer unadulterated procrastination purposes, get your thumbs poised for five of the best apps of 2012.

 

Five of the Best Apps of 2012

 

Draw Something Free

Basically Pictionary for your phone, play Draw Something against other live players, or log in via Facebook to pit yourself against friends. Your doodles will undoubtedly get sillier and more x-rated as you progress in this obsessive game.

 

 

 

 

 

Max Payne Mobile

Take a violent trip down memory lane with ‘man on the edge’ Max Payne. Bursting with the plot-twists, hopeless amounts of fighting and slow-motion ‘Bullet Time’ that Payne is synonymous with, get involved in twisted corruption on the go for only $2.99.

 

 

 

 

 

Calltrunk US

Gone are the days of noting down important phone calls, or even endeavoring to remember what they were about, with the free call recording app Calltrunk. Not only are all calls recorded (no matter which phone they are from) but Calltrunk also records Skype conversations. Plus, it has a search engine which scans recordings by detecting spoken words. Sheer genius.
 

 

 

 

Fitbit

If you are looking to get fit and funky this summer (who isn’t?) Fitbit is your savior. Although it can’t physically remove that doughnut from your lips, it will log your food, activities and weight to track your progress from rough to buff, and it’s all for free!

 

 

 

 

 

Run in Crowd

The aim of the game? Quite simply, run. Pitted against others from around the world, keep your avatar running by avoiding obstacles and the odd never-ending abyss. The longer you run for, the higher you score, and consequently the more pride you feel, all for just 99 cents.
