Evernote turns the iPhone into your external brain. Evernote for iPhone lets you remember anything and everything that happens in your life. From notes to ideas to snapshots to recordings, put them all into Evernote and watch as they instantly synchronize from the iPhone to the web to your desktop. Evernote for iPhone is part of the Evernote service, which is made up of desktop clients (Mac and Windows), a web version, and clients for other mobile devices. Whenever you add or edit a note in one version, it is quickly made available across all others, so that you can access your notes and memories any time.

Be sure to try Evernote's amazing image recognition. Snap photos of anything from whiteboards to business cards to wine labels, and Evernote will make the text within those images searchable. Evernote also takes advantage of the iPhone's location awareness by automatically geo-tagging all your memories. Need something from last week or last year? Evernote for iPhone instantly connects to the Evernote service to help you find what you're looking for by searching or filtering by tag, date, location, and more.
