Despite the sensation created by the iPad lately, the iPhone still enjoys overwhelming popularity and growth and users continue to benefit from the ever-growing library of appealing iPhone apps. For those with busy lifestyles it can take a great deal of time effort to keep up with both work life and personal life. Keeping their needs in mind, below are some great iPhone apps that can aid in streamlining those busy lifestyles:

Cook like Nigella Lawson

The domestic goddess has launched her iPhone app that will allow her followers to try out amazing recipes from their homes. It is said to have climbed to number one on the iTunes chart of top paid apps shortly after its release.

The Nigella's Quick Collection has outshone the 20-minute quick meals preparation iPhone app launched previously by Jamie Oliver, which is within the top five lifestyle apps in the UK.

The fact that Nigella's Quick Collection is a mobile app makes it highly compatible with hectic lifestyles, as users can browse the recipes and get fresh ideas about what to make each day at their convenience

Hatha Yoga

Reviewed by Regis Chapman of Appolicious, this app is worth investing in. Yoga is a great way to relax and replenish inner energy, and yoga apps can be highly attractive to busy workers as they can enjoy their yoga breaks at home during weekday evenings or the weekend.

As a paid app, this is hailed as a highly portable yoga studio that allows users to customise their own virtual yoga class to fit their own learning pace. The voice instructions are clear and precise, while the man behind the iPhone app, Prehlada Reddy, has possibly taught more yoga than any other Yoga teachers in the world. As leading Hatha Yoga instructor, he upholds their yoga principles since 1993.

Fashion 411

The Guardian has mentioned ITN's launch of the new fashion app that features the latest reviews of designer collections and high street fashion collections. This is definitely helpful for those who lack time but wish to add variety and choice items to their wardrobes. The app also includes interviews with designers and models, as well as fashion articles and events.

MeeGenius

This mobile app is quite handy to those who have young children. The app features beautifully illustrated children's books that parents can read to their children before they go to sleep, adding fun to their precious evening time together.

Alternatively, children can be easily taught to interact with the app themselves, improving reading and technology skills.

With audio playback, word highlighting and auto-play features, the app can add fun to evening reading time.

Healthy Superfoods

This app developed by CleverMatrix, makes it easier to pick the best foods when you next stock up from the supermarket.

The app helps users find out the right kind of food to eat, so as to build up a good immune system in the long run.

The health benefits and nutrition information for each food are highlighted and recipes are also provided. Importantly, it advises the ailments that are associated with a lack of specific types of food, to reinforce importance of a healthy diet.

You can also save up useful recipes for future reference.

Unsurprisingly, more apps are on their way, because of the potential change in the hardware itself. As revealed by PC Magazine, Apple lovers may be interested to know that a new iPhone model is already being talked about, possibly to be released during early spring or early summer. There are claims that the new iPhone may well have a better and faster processor, and a slimmer design, with a new front-facing camera.

Regardless of the number of apps stored in the phone, an iPhone insurance policy can be essential for an iPhone user to protect against the risk of loss or accidental damage. Having adjusted to the iPhone lifestyle, it will be difficult to go without the gadget for any length of time.

As with all insurance policies, exclusions and limitations apply. Please ensure that you read the full terms and conditions to understand what is covered and what is not covered.
