I've actually already done one on 2 of those... the RSS one i did for iPad though so maybe i'll evaluate doing an iPhone one as well!

The security one may be a good idea though!

Tweetbot vs. Tweet Logix vs. Tweetdeck

Docs to go vs Pages,Keynote, etc, vs Quickoffice. That one was a hardmchoicemfor me given the price differences, features and compatibility issues each has with different formats and other platforms. I ended up going with Quickoffice.

once iOS6 is out... The native Map app vs. Navigon/Garmin street pilot/TomTom/Telenav/... other popular navigation apps.

**gordol** · 08-09-2012, 10:56 AM

TweetCaster vs Slice
eWallet vs, SplashData vs 1Password vs...
ListPro vs HanDBase

Can you give me an example of one or two that you'd like to see included?

Movie Manager vs DVD Profiler vs DVD Catalog, for example.

How about Documents 2 Go vs QuickOffice vs...

I currently have both installed, and find that the first is OK for Word files but useless for Excel files (does not support calling data from other sheets in the workbook), but while the second seems to work fine with the Excel files, it constantly corrupts my Word files.

**Sophos** · 08-19-2012, 02:19 AM

This might be a silly suggestion but how about an App Vs App on Words With Friends VS Wordfeud? They are essentially the same game with a few differences that might make for an interesting comparison. I have been playing Wordfeud since back in my Android days....and was super stoked to find they also have awesome iPhone/iPad apps.

Cheers

Thank you, Ally, but the security comparison you did, did not include DataVault. Also, the RSS comparison did not include Feeddler. Reeder and Feeddler are arguably two of the top traditional RSS readers and a comparison of the two, in my opinion, is warranted. DataVault is often mentioned in these forums when people ask for password apps and it has been around for a while. I thought it would be a good idea to compare it with the ones you've reviewed already or at least with mSecure and 1password. Anyway, thank you for responding, Ally. I appreciate it. Take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I actually did a 1Password vs DataVault comparison a while back. I wasn't very impressed with DataVault. Not saying it isn't a good choice. It's always hard to pick the top 3 and of course my opinion and choices won't always appease everyone but I try to be objective and pick the ones that I think are the most beneficial to iOS users.

GREAT suggestion.

Oh, I'm sorry. I wasn't aware of it.

DataVault is not for everyone and neither is any other app so I understand, my friend.

How about a Dropbox vs SkyDrive vs Google Drive vs Box vs SugarSync etc. etc. I know I have a hard time deciding which one I want to use.
