The App Store takes delivery of hundreds of new apps per day. The overwhelming scene makes it possible to easily overlook an exciting game, valuable productivity suite, etc. However, we have a solution.

Craigsmo. by Light Speed (Free, 11.5 MB): This Craigslist client app provides a clean and simple means of browsing the local classifieds. Whether you're in need of daycare services, looking for a new job or residence, want to buy an older generation iPod touch, or interested in what events are going on around the community, finding it through Craigsmo is even more efficient than Craiglist's already mobile friendly site. Rather than stripping things down to an extremely minimal text-only experience, Craigsmo's UI maintains streamlined navigation but adds colored icons, item separating background, image previews, and dual-line body text previews for easier viewing and recognition. In addition, the app offers browsing history, sub-category searching, one tap bookmarking of sub-categories and posts as well as responding via email. An ad banner is present and can be deactivated via a $0.99 in-app purchase. We recommend familiarizing yourself with the Craigslist safety tips before beginning any interactions.
