Most useless app on your iPhone?

What is the most useless app you have on your iPhone (not counting games)?

I have so many to choose from, but I guess mine would be RunPee because I so rarely go to the movies.

I may mention some of the runners-up as this thread progresses.

Probably a toss up between some random game that I never play 😛. Actually, no I think it'd be iBooks, because I guarantee I'll never read a book on my phone!
 
I usually uninstall apps that I don't need. Google Mobile App. I like it because of the goggles feature, but I never use it.
 
Voice Memos -- Everything is text, searchable. Notes in the form of sound is pretty useless to me.

So you didn't replace it, you just got rid of it?

The app? I just don't use the app. I still find the rest of the phone good, but the sound quality and lack of EQ on Apple products is truly awful for audio fans. Use a Cowon J3 for mp3s now, and it's the best player I've had yet.
 
Depends on how you look at it. I've never, actually, used the app "Spellnumber", but sometimes I use it often.

(It came out forever ago with an easter egg that provides emoji support. And it was free, so I used that instead).

But the actually app, like, types in a number, like "1022" and spits out text "one thousand and twenty two". In other words, easily the stupidest app ever made.
 
The actual phone dialer. I can never finish a call. Actually pissed me off royally today while toning a really long run of fiber at work. Couldn't hold a conversation with my co-worker for longer than 10 seconds.
 
I haven't even touched my iPhone since I got my WinMoPho, also haven't touched my iPod. The thing is just so much slower than what I am used to, I fear that I won't use iOS again until I have a current gen device.
 
I would have to say SkyFire. Will we ever get true Flash functionality on the iPhone ... though it probably doesn't matter since most sites (e.g. Hulu, etc.) won't allow it unless you pay a monthly subscription for their service/app.

I am suprised you lost your interest in iPhone...WinMoPho is too old unless you mean Windows Phone 7

I call Windows Phone 7 WinMoPho due to the way the name has changed since the reveal, and the fact that if I want to say what I have, then I have to say that I have a Windows Phone 7 phone, so I just say that I have a WinMoPho (get it, it is phonetically similar to Mo-Fo, which is used as an abbreviation for Mother F*cker)

Most flash video sites are creating HTML5 versions anyways. Seriously, Flash isn't that important. Not anymore.. Youtube even has an HTML5 webpage now. and YOUPORN
 
Honestly, 90% of the apps are essentially web pages in an app container. Infuriating co-worker is constantly going on about "ooooh have you seen that Time has an iphone app now?). So fucking what? Its a limited version of their website? thats not an app - its monetisation of the dumb!

Anyway now thats off my chest 🙂 All the apps that meet the above criteria like the TUAW app for example.

And of course the Apple weather app, stocks app and any other shit I can't get off my phone if I don't want it.
