What native iPhone application/feature do you use least?

**Jeremy** · 08-18-2009, 09:03 PM

Title says it all. I would add a poll to this thread but the possibilities are endless. So how about it, what native iPhone application/feature do you use least on your phone?

**Tramain** · 08-18-2009, 09:07 PM

1. Stocks only opened it like twice to see how it looked.
2. Clock don't use it that often
3. The second contacts icon

**cobra302** · 08-18-2009, 09:35 PM

the search feature, and stocks.

**charliej66** · 08-18-2009, 09:36 PM

Stocks. I would remove it if I could.

**sting7k** · 08-18-2009, 09:38 PM

1. Spot light search
2. Bluetooth
3. Apps that I never use from Apple -

Stocks - Bloomberg lets me track my stocks and how much $$$ I make (or lose

).

Weather - Incredibly lame and really gives no information, Weather Bug Elite.

Youtube - Bored with watching idiots do dumb things.

iTunes - I always compare prices with AmazonMP3 before I buy songs now.

Voice Memos - It's 2009...no need for this.

Notes - Awesome Note, because it's awesome.

Contacts App - Not sure why this is even here, looks like it provides "duplicate functionality" to me with what's in "Phone"; lulz Apple.

1. Youtube - Never been opened. Never
2. Stocks - Rarely opened
3. Clock- Too many cool replacements

**Duvi** · 08-18-2009, 10:09 PM

Youtube, Stocks, Weather, Voice Memos, Contacts (I usually go through the phone app), Calculator (I'm good at math, no need for it), iTunes, Notes & Compass.

I barely use the calendar.

Probably would have been easier to name the ones I do use. Lol.

**Jellotime91** · 08-18-2009, 10:29 PM

Stocks for sure.. Contacts I rarely use because I go through the phone app.. Calculator is rarely used now that I'm not in school. :P

**John-Fox** · 08-18-2009, 10:40 PM

Stocks & Weather.

**puffalumps** · 08-19-2009, 01:21 AM

Stocks. Don't have any to keep track of.

**Satanic Goat** · 08-19-2009, 01:25 AM

Stocks and Clocks

**naviwilliams** · 08-19-2009, 01:41 AM

Stocks. I wish with an un-jailbroken iPhone one could remove said items, or better still Apple made those icons show on page TWO of the screen of icons...

**Allyson Kazmucha** · 08-19-2009, 01:56 AM

Dang, a lot of you say clock, I use that for the alarm almost everyday, lol

I use youtube all the time, stocks I don't as I use better apps like bloomberg and dailyfinance

For me, the native stocks and weather apps, as well as voice notes. I don't ever open the compass app but it is useful when it integrates with google maps, so i guess i use it.

**GMJeff** · 08-19-2009, 02:08 AM

Same here, Stocks has never been used as well as spotlight search. I don't even use that on my MacBook.

You can move the stocks icon to any screen you like, just like any other icon.

**chobbs1** · 08-19-2009, 07:29 AM

I use clock alot too. Alarm in the morning! Timer for naps in the afternoon. And to see what
time it is when I call freinds in foreign countries

stocks is my vote.

**Watcher** · 08-19-2009, 07:42 AM

Voice Memo: though I actually like it
Stocks: I use Bloomberg, it's much better
Calculator: But I do like it
iTunes: This is the only app I wouldn't mind if it was deleted altogether from my phone.

**sting7k** · 08-19-2009, 07:52 AM

Yea all these people saying they don't use the clock. What do you use for alarms or timers since other apps can't run in the background? I use the alarm every day. I use the stop watch at work to time experiments if I have to leave the lab or when I go to lunch, love that Apple added lap times in 3.0. I use the timer at home all the time for cooking and grilling.

**flyingember** · 08-19-2009, 07:55 AM

stocks. Apple needs a way to keep apps installed but hide them.

**naviwilliams** · 08-19-2009, 07:56 AM

Thanks, I was aware of that. But, saving me having to move it in the first place, it should be on screen 2

Ha ya same here...use the clock every single day if not twice a day (nap-time!!). What are some good alarm replacements? I dont mind the native clock but wouldnt mind trying something new.
Also, i never touch stocks, itunes, or youtube

**croush** · 08-19-2009, 08:07 AM

Never use:
iTunes (If I want to listen to a song, I'll YouTube it)
Weather (WeatherBug Elite is a must-have for my daily bike commute to work)
Stocks (Doesn't investment cost money?)
Contacts (I don't see the point in this one, given the duplicate functionality in "Phone.")

In fact, I use each of these so infrequently, they're hidden from view on my jailbroken 3G.

Those I use but thought I wouldn't:
Voice Memo (Often snag blurbs of songs off the radio or from live performances as a "learn to play this" reminder)
Spotlight Search (It's quicker, in fact, to spotlight search a contact to call than to navigate through the Contacts or Phone Apps, at least by two taps. No Voice Control love for the 3G, I'm afraid--I see Voice Control as a complete replacement for most of the handy functions of Spotlight)
Calculator (One of those "You don't miss it until it's gone" apps)
