My Desert Island App

We've all heard the familiar question before: You're stuck on a desert island. If you could bring one thing with you, what would it be--and why? In recent years, my answer to such a question was simple: my cane. Without it, I'd be in big trouble. If given more choices, I would invariably include things like food and water...and my iPhone. Oh, and speaking of that iPhone. If I had to choose only one app to have on my phone, what would I choose? The answer, for me at least, is not an easy one. My iPhone is about practicality. I don't do any gaming, and I use my phone mainly to make my everyday life easier: I text, read e-mail, check Facebook and Twitter, keep updated on the weather, read the news...that kind of thing. So, with that said...my "desert island" app would be Facebook, because I can keep in touch with all of my friends and family--not all of whom have Twitter. What about you? If you could have only one app on your iOS device, what would you pick? Let us know in the comments!

I'd say you don't Need any apps, you could just take Safari. With that you can do everything! I'd have Skype though, that's a Thing you can't do with Safari, or at least it isn't that easy.
