Photo Booth. Since the iPad 2 has its own dual camera, I’m enjoying taking photos with this app. Although the iPad 2’s camera is not high-res, this is still a fun app because it has 9 different settings you can choose from: Normal, X-ray, Light Tunnel, Stretch, Mirror, Twirl, Thermal Camera, Kaleidoscope and Squeeze.
Marble Mixer. This is a game application that you can play by yourself or play with three other people. There are three games you can choose from when you play this app. I enjoy playing this app with family and friends.
Plants vs. Zombies. I’m addicted to this game since I learned how to play it during the last weeks of our Manila vacation (I know I’m a late bloomer). I enjoy playing this on the tablet because who wouldn’t like playing this game on a bigger scale, right? I play a game or two of Plants vs. Zombies every night before I read my book of the moment, one of my ways to relax at the end of a busy day.
Angry Birds. Again, another game application which got me addicted to before. I used to play this game via my iPod touch and I swear, during the time I was addicted to this game, I stay up till about two in the morning. When I got my iPad 2, my love for Angry Birds was rekindled because again, it was in a bigger scale.
Flipboard. I like using this app for reading blogs because when using this app it seems as if I’m just reading a magazine.
Pulse. I use this application for reading news from all over the world.
Epicurious. There are so many food/recipe apps and this is one of those I find very user-friendly when it comes to viewing recipes. This app has a lot of recipes to choose from and it’s presented in an organized way that’s why it’s so easy to use this app.
It has a search engine and shopping list feature.
And look! It has Adobo recipes!
FaceTime. This application has proven very useful to connect to people we love. Since the iPad 2 has a two-way camera, we can talk to our loved ones face-to-face, provided that they have a FaceTime-enabled device. All you need is a Wi-Fi connection in order to connect to people. This is me talking to my friend and godson on a Saturday morning.
This is my Husband and our godson playing Peekaboo via FaceTime.
These are just some of the applications I frequently use. There are lots more I like using and I will share them with you next time.
What are your favourite iPad applications? Care to share?

Hi, Ibyang. Thanks for sharing this. I started to share one app I love using my Samsung Galaxy Tab a few days ago.

I’m so sad that there’s no version of Flipboard on the iPhone. But then again, the way the user interface was designed, it was meant for the larger screen of the iPad.
