Where to start? With over a million apps in the app store it is likely that at least 60 per cent of them will be pointless. After Maps, Twitter, Facebook and various social networking sites what else do you really need in your life? Luckily some genius developers have given us apps so that we can always carry a glow stick wherever we need or divulge in our urges to poke other people by doing it on our phone.
