Find a way to sneak some porn on there. Like a standard poker application, and if you press in some super secret gesture, it turns into strip poker.
 
I would pay for this app..

A flashcard app for just Hiragana and Katakana.. an app that has a good asian look which allows you to choose which groups of letters you want.. you could select just the Ks, Rs, Ss if you want or you could do all of them..

This app could be even better if it allowed you to learn the strokes for each letter as well.. through drawing them on screen with a finger..

Complicated i know but im sure tons of people who are learning japanese would pay like 3.99 for this.

Thought about it but it's not worth never programming for the iPhone again once they discover it.
 
i want the following:

- app to track and find cheap gas

- package tracking app for usps, ups, fedex, dhl, etc

- haveamint.com app to track web statistics

- TV guide app

- timecard app for people who get paid hourly... so you can enter in your hours and hourly pay rate and it will calculate how much you should get paid on a weekly or biweekly period.

+ TV guide app

There used to be a widget that would give you Ceefax/Teletext (UK only), be nice to have an iPhone app of that very widget, but Teletext is very slow and ugly...

I'm pretty sure almost all of these exist already.
 
1) an app that uses your contact picture to make a call shortcut on he home page. something that can have multiple buttons?

2) a gym work out tracker where you can make up your own work out plans (with any excercises) and log your every weight and rep. from there you can export it to see how you are progressing. For all excercises (input either time, weight, hardness level or speed) against time (weeks for instance).

3) Use tfl (transport for london) journey planer as an app (there is a website embed button under it). The results to be iphone sizes, this isnt difficult as the workings are in the link supplied. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/widgets/?CMP=widget-banner&banner=jppanel-/home.aspx

4) any video camera recording app.

5) app to make meeting invited for ical that are outlook friendly.

6) wifi on off switch (not able to make this im sure though)

good luck.
 
+ TV guide app

yes a tv guide that also contains sky sports (all channels) / setanta / standard cable channels.
 
European football league scores (soccer) with live goal updates and the ability to choose a selection of teams to get notifications of a goal for those teams. Check out livescores.com for an example of what I mean. The killer thing though would be the notification options. The ifooty iPhone app is showing potential but it's info comes from a crappy source (BBC). If livescores.com or maybe skysports.coms data could be used it would be much better.
 
DirecTV

Please, if possible, I'd love to see an app that can view my DirecTV guide while I'm at home. And also control the box (the directv box is hooked up to ethernet). Tell it to record shows, change channels, etc. I know you can do this via the remote, but it's nice to not have to clutter the tv screen while browsing around for what to watch. also would be nice to have a better interface for the directv website. the current mobile interface is terrible.

we've already been talking about it here....
 
Please man, I'm begging you, create THIS game.

It would work so perfect for the iphone and you all know it. :)

It's so simple, and pretty addicting.
 
I'd like an app, that stopped people from constantly asking what apps everyone wants, that would be the shiz.....

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know that you HAD to read this thread and HAD to respond to it. If you don't like people asking questions about what apps to create then ignore them. ;)

To everyone else, thanks for the ideas.
 
An app that would provide easy/quick access for viewing Kaboodle lists would very much appreciated by Kaboodle users.

An example of a Kaboodle list is one that consists of items you have found on other websites that you are thinking of purchasing, complete with hyperlinks and pictures. Another example of a Kaboodle list might consist of apartments you have found on sites such as craigslist.com or the local newspaper's website. Having access to these types of list, per the example, comes in very handy when shopping at a brick-and-mortar store or when driving around looking at apartments to rent.

I have emailed the company and it seems that they have interest in having the app developed, yet I got the impression that they would prefer to have an outside programmer create the app. If you're interested, I suggest you contact them.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! We need a completely functional notes/memos app.

Am I wrong or aren't a great many of these suggestions already in the App store?
You're not wrong. Here's a small snippet:

Thanks for confirming what I thought. But I guess when people can't even search the forums, they aren't likely to search the app store. :cool:

Some people have given some unique ideas, not any that interest me yet, but I only have 4 or 5 apps on my phone so I know I am not the target audience here.
 
I have a problem. I'm a fast and efficient programmer but my brain is so left sided I can't think of any good Apps to create so I'm reaching out to the populous to help me out. What kind of Apps would you like to see?
another doctor request:
Atlas of cross sectional anatomy, preferably with CT, MRI and US correlation
Index of radiological measurements, epiphysis development charts, bone age charts, normal radiological variants atlas
CT protocol list
Creatinine clearance calculator and scale for nephrotoxicity
for a start.....
 
An app to pull the current GPS location, and show close gas stations, with ability to sort by distance or price :)
