Best I-Phone Application; Worst I-Phone Application:


Best I-Phone App of the Week:

After trying a bevy of mortgage calculator applications I finally had a Eureka moment this week when I found my one and only, hands down the Best Mortgage Calculator around. It’s called CalcsFree – Mortgage Calculator - With Estimated Tax Savings, from Mortal Geek LLC.


This thing is remarkably easy to use, yet it is packed with everything you could possibly need. Simply put: it makes me look good. I can zoom through and paint an accurate financial picture, which I can immediately e-mail to my client. You can whip out a 5, 7, 10 year financial analysis showing interest and principal paid, pre-tax, after tax, the whole nine yards. You can include all other costs associated with ownership, so your client can know exactly how much money to budget for the property he's considering.


I am deleting all other mortgage calculators from my I-Phone. I will need no others. CalcsFree is now my one and only! I would gladly pay quite a bit for this little gismo, but you know what? I don’t have to, because it’s free! Go ahead and see for yourself! If you can find a better mortgage calculator, I want to know about it! I do believe I’ve tried them all.


The Worst I-Phone App of the Week:

The loser this week is VoiceThis, a voice recognition application that is supposed to give you instant voice dialing. It cost me 99 cents and I should not only get a refund, but should actually charge for the numerous attempts I’ve made to use this lame excuse for a voice recognition app. I say Tomato, it says Tomato and that’s fine by me, but when I ask for Thomas Cunningham and it dials Donna Long, I have a problem! Just don’t do it! Don’t waste your dollar on this lame application!
