My current Home Screen

First Row

MultiTimer - Multiple times and multiple types of timers (count up, down, stopwatch, interval) for all types of application     

Apple Maps - how I get from here to there   

DayOne - Daily journaling app, syncs with all my devices

ContactsXL - a better contacts manager

Second Row

 OverCast - Trying this out for a while.  I either use this or pocket casts

Apple Safari - web browser 

Dictionary - free dictionary with all sorts of information 

Numerical - the calculator with no equal

Third Row

Facebook - As a pastor I follow other pastors and churches, my relatives and a few people from high school

Twitterific - I follow news sources, companies and developers that produce software I like and pastors and churches

Study Bible - Logos, which is not Faithlife makes the most complete and useful bible software system out there.  Works awesome on desktop machines and pretty good on mobile

Bear - This is awesome for writing.  I am currently in a 500 Words per Day challenge and I use Bear. Some people say it is great for notes and will beat out Apple notes.  I have not tried that yet.  So I am still testing it.

Fourth Row

DEVONThink - Evernote got to the point where it was useless on mobile.  So I switched to DEVONThink.  This is app, I own the database.  I can put it anywhere and use dropbox or any NAS to sync with mobile.  It has a file structure like finder and it is much easier to use and organize than what Evernote has become

Scanbot - I can documents all the time.  This will do a great job scanning then save it or share it any way I want

Buy Me a Pie! - This is the shared grocery store app my wife and I use

Slack - A communicate with several groups through slack a private tool for small groups or teams

Fifth Row

Apple Clock - This is my alarm clock and timer (when I only need to time one thing).  I like this timer because it works with Siri

Forecast Bar - I switch weather apps every year.  This year it is this one.

Unread - I still follow several tech blogs via RSS and this is the tool I use

Banktivity - Checkbook and bank account manager

Sixth Row

Drafts - The place where text starts.  I am still trying to get this into my daily habit instead of going straight to iMessages

Pocket - My "Read it later" service.  Also interfaces with IFTTT

1Password - The best password manager for IOS, I believe

Mic'd - A great voice memo recorder.  works with Apple Watch too.  Syncs everything via iCloud.

Dock

Informant - One of the best calendars for IOS.  Informant 5 adds a great task manager.  I am seeing if this can replace OmniFocus

Apple Messages - iMessages

Apple Phone App - After all this is still a phone.  As a pastor I get many calls.  I can be reached via 4 numbers on this phone.  1) The number that came with it; 2) Sideline app allows a second number; 3) Our church uses Vonage, so the main number can ring this phone; 4) I have my own extension through Vonage and it will ring this phone

Apple Mail - After trying Spark and Airmail and others, I am back to Apple Mail.  I don't get much email (30 a week) and I get most of my email on my desktop machine, so Apple Mail is good enough for my purposes


Apple Watch:  For me, any useful app must have an Apple Watch connection.  Any app that has an Apple Watch app will also get noticed by me.
