Apps for Around the House


Keep up with eBay

Download the eBay application from the App Store and tap, flick, and pinch to browse millions of auctions and place bids. See if you’ve been outbid and react right away. View the items you’re watching at a glance. Or if you’re selling, see what sold (and what didn’t) and stay on top of your auctions — no matter where you are.


Get cooking

Add your own recipes or find recipes other cooks have uploaded on www.chefslittlehelper.com and the Chef application syncs them to your iPhone automatically. Chef even adds ingredients to a grocery list so you can get back to the kitchen fast. Or find recipes online and turn them into web clips you can keep on a second or third home screen for fast access in the kitchen or quick reference at the grocery store.


Decorate with iPhone

Before you go to the flea market or the home improvement store, enter the name and dimensions of each room in your house and let Home Sizer calculate usable square footage.
