Geocaching, $9.99

Old-time geocachers may bemoan the lack of prep work that this all-inclusive geocaching app eliminates, but casual geocachers won’t be able to deny the convenience. Just fire it up and when you’re in a new area to find nearby caches, read the details, drop a pin on the map, and get searching. You can even post field notes to help others, right from the phone. We’ve used it for impromptu caching in the middle of a hike or just strolling around the city.
