Price: £13.99
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/quickoffice-pro-hd/id376212724 Apple's iWork apps have been praised for their look and feel, but many actually prefer Quickoffice Pro HD.

Developer: EPLAYWORKS
Price: £1.99
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/avplayerhd/id407976815 While iOS is packed with useful features, itdoesn't offer native support for many popular video formats, and this is where the AVPlayerHD app comes into play.

Developer: Zolmo
Price: Free (in-app purchases)
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/jamies-recipes/id398011800 Rather than having ahefty one-off price, the new Jamie's Recipes is free, but contains only a 10-recipe sample pack - you have to buy more packs as In-App Purchases of around £1.49. We're loving the attention to detail - for example, ingredients can be added to a shopping list, which you can email to yourself or a loved one to pick up on the way home. . 
Developer: Apple

Price: £2.99
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/reeder-for-ipad/id375661689 While some hold up Pulse as the best way to access RSS feeds - stripped-down, automatically refreshed website content that you usually subscribe to for free - it's a little too lightweight for us. It's fine if you only have a dozen or so feeds coming in, but if you follow a lot more than that, Reeder is the app for you. . 
Developer: Tai Shimizu
Price: £2.49
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/filterstorm/id363449020 If there's an iOS app that comes close to offering the kind of editing facilities that are available in a Mac OS X or Windows application, then it's this one, Filterstorm. For starters, it can import and process images in raw format.

Developer: Ramki
Price: £2.99
Link:http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/noteshelf/id392188745 You can create multiple notebooks, and stack and arrange them on a shelf. Each notebook has a default paper style - lined, squared, and more - but you can mix paper types in one book; yay! Better still, you can import your own templates. There's no handwriting recognition, and the option to type as well as hand-write would be nice, but even so: superb. .

Link: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-go/id446086440 There's only one way to watch Sky Sports on your iOS device, and that's using the brand new Sky Go app. It replaces the much-maligned Mobile TV app, which had the cheek to demand you pay money for it, even if you were already paying a monthly fee for Sky TV and Sky Player. Providing you're a Sky Sports subscriber, you have access to all 4 Sky Sports channels, as well as ESPN, Sky One and more. . 
Developer: Google
