Tap & Track -Calorie Counter (Diets & Exercises)
by nanobitsoftware.com
If you are interested in altering your weight, then tracking daily calories is a must. With Calorie Tracker-Tap & Track you can quickly access a large database of foods and restaurant menus. Many of these types of apps require an internet connection to access the database, but Calorie Tracker works offline, which makes it a great app for iPod Touch. You can graph and generate reports to help you achieve your goals and then export them to .csv files.

WebMD for iPad
by WebMD
WebMD for iPad and iPhone is a free app that serves as a nice client for the well-respected WebMD website. I prefer using the app on the iPad given the larger screen size. The app features five main categories: symptom checker, conditions, drugs and treatments, first aid information, and local health listings. The drug section includes a pill identifier with pictures and descriptions for figuring out what is in your medicine cabinet. WebMD requires an internet connection so be careful about relying solely on your iPad in an emergency.

Nike+ GPS
by Nike, Inc.
With iOS 4.0, Nike+ support was built into the iPhone, but you still needed to purchase the Nike+ shoe sensor. With Nike+ GPS you can use this great running tracker without the shoe sensor, which now uses your iPhone's GPS technology. It includes all of the great features of Nike+ including voice prompts while running, uploading of run data to the Nike+ website for tracking, and sharing your successes via Facebook and Twitter. If you’re a runner, at $1.99 Nike+GPS is a must have app. (The latest 4.2 update has caused some issues with crashing and reliability, but will hopefully be sorted out soon.)
