"From Angry Birds to Zite, mobile apps are redefining how we experience the world, whether we're at work or play. But with hundreds of thousands of apps available, choosing the right software is becoming increasingly complicated. That's where we come in. Our experts braved the app stores to search, download, test, crash, complain, and update—all so you don't have to. Organized into seven categories—social, games, lifestyle, news, arts & entertainment, photography, and productivity—these are the apps worth knowing about."

The app includes the WIRED essentials bundle, which includes 18 "must-have" apps for any new iOS device user. There's also Editor's Picks, and specialized apps for physicists, entrepreneurs, celebrities, etc. There's also some editorial content that's definitely worth checking out.

The Wired App Guide is beautifully designed for the iPad. It's like perusing an interactive magazine full of awesome app reviews. The app takes advantage of iOS gestures and lets you launch the App Store from inside the app when you find something you want to buy.

There's a ton of great apps in the Wired App Guide. Whether you're an Apple aficionado or someone totally new to the App Store, the Wired App Guide is a recommended download. This app would also be a great thing to gift a friend that's looking for some cool apps to download.
