One of the best features of the iPhone has to be the camera. Better than perhaps any other cell phone camera that has been out there, it captures gorgeously clear pictures and has made it easier than ever to store and share images. But more than that, they have dozens of applications that have been created to help you manipulate, edit and apply effects to those pictures.

It isn’t easy to come up with only 10 of the best, because there are at least 20 that could be described as really top notch, and most for under a couple of bucks or even free. But these are the 10 that manage to scrape by the rest to make it into the top slots, if just barely.

1. Instagram

I would be surprised if there was a single person out there at this point that didn’t at least know what Instagram was. This free application allows you to add a number off really useful, easy-to-use effects to enhance and change photographs. There have been some complaints of bugs lately, but they seem to have been largely cleared up thanks to some new updates.

2. Photoshop Express

Photoshop is probably the best known editing software on the market. If you want something simple and on the go, you can try their express app. It is free and pretty functional, with a number of editing features such as cropping, color adjust, effects and more. You are basically looking at the most basic tools from the traditional Photoshop, but they work better than most and from a reliable software that most people have used.

3. Dynamic Light

Want an easier way to get that HDR look you have been envying from other websites? This is a great application that allows you to do it. You just use the simple dial to create an intense look on any photo. Checking out the screencap examples should give you a good idea of what it can do, and for only 99 cents it is a steal.

4. Montag

Who doesn’t love a good montage? Usually you have to make it all up in a program such as Photoshop, or Paint for the less savvy. If you ever wished their was a simple way to do it on your iPhone, here is the chance. You can take an unlimited number of images and move them into position, then use effects and editing tools to get it all just the way you want it. Add text, use more than a dozen colors for backgrounds and email or post the finished product onto a social networking site. All for $1.99.

5. Pic Grunger

Some of us love the look of a well-worn photograph. But that is a thing of the past with modern technology, which is a good and bad thing. If you want the convenience and positives of digital photos, but the look of the old wear and tear, this is the perfect app for you. It has 11 realistic grunge effects, six color styles, high and low resolution options and a dozen textures. It only costs 99 cents, as well.

6. Tiny Planet Photos

This is a weird but fun program. It works by taking your photos and transforming them into a little condensed sphere. In essence, it becomes a tiny planet just like the name implies. There aren’t any other uses, but for 99 cents it is a cool app to have.

7. PicFX

This is one of the more extensive apps I have found for photo editing. It comes with 47 different effects, as well as other tools such as color styles, textures and more. It makes it easy to save your images in high resolution or lower grades, and then save and post them anywhere you like, from Facebook to Tumblr. They have an "add another" feature that allows you to use more than one effect on a single image. It costs only $1.99, which is better than others in the same league.

8. AutoStitch Panorama

The limitations of the iPhone camera are the same as with any other cell phone camera. But you can get past it with this app. It allows you to take multiple images and stitch them together into a panorama that actually manages to meld together with no visible seams or blurring. It is the best app of its kind you can find without a doubt. It is worth a lot more than $1.99, as well.

9. TiltShift Generator

Do you like toy camera-style photos? What about vintage? You can take the perfect photos and apply the right effects with this app, which was voted second place in the best-ever photo editing applications on the web. It only costs 99 cents, but it is a great tool that everyone should have on hand.

10. Perfect Photo

Just want a simple editing software that doesn’t waste time on tons of effects? From mixing red eye to resizing, this is one of the best apps you can get. Right now, it is on sale for 50 percent off, or 99 cents, so check it out.

These are my pics for the best, but what are yours? Let us know in the comments.

As iPhone is getting popular it’s apps are getting popular too, more and more developers are jumping in this field to make good money out of it. Developing good iPhone app is not the main thing, launching it is also very important. So, here i would like to share some useful tips for creating an awesome iPhone app website.

1. Show Your App in Action

If there is one important thing in common with almost every iPhone app website I have seen, it’s that they all show how their application looks inside an actual iPhone. There are plenty of free mockups of iPhones out there that you can use for free to save you the trouble of shooting a picture of an actual iPhone.

This will make it clear what your site is about, so don’t be afraid to have the iPhone mockup large and in charge on your home page. Just make sure it’s as close to how your app will look as possible.

2. Create a Killer Headline

Arguably the most important part of any site trying to sell something is the headline. A large headline is usually the first thing a viewer reads and it often decides whether or not they will hit the back button. A killer headline can skyrocket your sales and keep people on your site for much longer.

It should accurately describe what your app is about, what it can do for the user and why it’s better than the competition in just one great sentence. Try writing a few dozen versions and testing which work best. Its one of the few elements of a site you can change easily and see big improvements as a result.

3. List Features and Benefits

Features and benefits are your best friend. They are the most important copy next to your headline and should also be in a prominent location above the fold of your website, which means you should see them without scrolling. Separate features and benefits into two sections and use bullets to draw attention to them.

This works great for a lot of people who like to scan sites quickly for information. Don’t exaggerate your features and benefits. Be honest about what your app can do and why the user should buy it.

4. Have a Large Call to Action

Your end goal is going to be to get people to buy and download your app so you need a big download button! Make it clear and easy for users to download your app. If some one comes to your site they should be able to spot the download button within 3 seconds without any trouble.

Create a couple different variations and remember bold is better. Also be sure to use action phrases for the button text such as “download now”. Again, you should test the button and a simple way to do so is to have some friends view the site while you are in the room with them and tell them to point out the download button as soon as they can and record how long it takes them to find it.

5. Add Some Video

Nowadays video is king and sometimes it’s a lot easier to get your point across to a viewer by actually showing them your iPhone app in action. If you don’t want to be on camera find some one who is a natural on camera and a very good speaker.

While you can write a script for the person, a way to make it more natural and fun is to find some one who really loves your apps and knows it backwards and forward. Just remind them of a few key points to touch on and then just ask them to talk about your iPhone app and show what it can do live.

6. Go Social

If you want your app to be HUGE you need to play into how viral the web can be. Try out different viral marketing methods such as videos, images, content and always have lots of ways for people to share your website and content across social networks such as Twitter, Facebook, StumbleUpon and so on.

7. Keep it Simple

In the end, you are just selling an iPhone app! There is no reason to have a very complicated website with dozens of pages and all kinds of fancy features. Include the key stuff mentioned above in a simple layout and let your app do the rest of the work.

Take a look at other Iphone app sites to see what they are doing and then make yours better! Study what works and apply it to your site if you want to increase your chances of success.
