Let’s be honest here.
While we will be making amazing connections at BlogHer, we all know we will spend the majority of the time on our smartphone.
I am going to share with you some of the must have apps for BlogHer and many other conferences.
Most of these apps are available for the iPhone, if you have a android you will have to check or find something comparable.
- Instagram- my favorite photo app. Take a photo, add effects and then post it to all your social media outlets.
- Facebook- Most of already have this app I think
- Twitter/Hootsuite- tweeting is important at these events!
- Instaframe- Put many pictures together, add a border, add text and share with your media outlets via Instagram!
- Foursquare- Because checking in to events is cool when you are with friends!
- WordPress/Blogger- This works best on a iPad if you plan to blog live!
- Eventbrite- Save a TREE! Instead of printing all those tickets to events, have this app to show your ticket!
- BlogHer12- The perfect app for anyone in attendance. Know the schedule immediately instead of hunting the print out.
- Expense Tracker- Keep track of all those expenses in one easy place.
- Open Table- Restaurant reservations
- HopStop- Detailed public transportation, taxi, walking,etc for many major US cities

How about the “Find My iPhone” app? I’m forever putting my phone down somewhere in the room or leaving it in the back pocket of my jeans, so this saves me the time I need to look for it.
Thanks for the great list. I found a few from here that I’m sure will be lifesavers.
Cheers,
