“If you have an iPod touch, then you know the benefit of finding apps that work offline. But some iPhone owners, too, need offline access from time-to-time. Maybe you spend your commute in an underground subway or perhaps your office building has shoddy cell coverage, or maybe you just want to use your iPhone on a plane…whatever the reason, offline access to apps is still a necessary evil these days,” Sarah Perez writes for Read Write Web.
“Not to worry, though, lack of a signal doesn’t mean you have to put your iPhone (or iPod) away – there are plenty of apps today that work offline,” Perez writes.
Here are some of our favorites:
• Evernote (note-taking)
• Stanza (ebook reader)
• Instapaper (web pages for offline reading)
• Encyclopedia
• NYTimes
• MiGhtyDocs (read Google docs offline)
• An RSS Reader (Byline suggested)
