The App Store is home to all the apps big and small, ranging from everyday reminders to novelty walkie-talkie apps, it has got it all. If you’ve been wondering about apps that are truly unique and not a lot of people know about, we’ll you’re on the right page. I have the list of 10 cool apps for iPhone that no one told you about. Let’s check those out.
Cool Apps for iPhone
1. Clubhouse
The clubhouse is that app on the block that’s been making waves in social media. It’s an invite-only app that uses audio as the primary mode of communication. Think of it as an interactive podcast where other people can spontaneously join your conversations and there are all sorts of categories to pique your interest. If not, you can use it to have weekend hangout sessions with your friends and family.

2. Spotted by Locals
This app is truly a city guide you need when visiting a new place. Spotted by Locals is run by the community and the local people who recommend places that are actually worth visiting. You get access to more than 80+ cities from around the world including the most popular ones like Barcelona, Paris, New York, London, etc. The app is free to download but you need to unlock every city’s guide with a one-time payment of $3.99 which seems reasonable as actual human labor goes into producing a high-quality guide.
It’s a cool travel app for iPhone users.

3. Unified Remote
Unified Remote is an app designed to transform your iPhone into a remote that can control multiple devices and services connected to your laptop. You can use Unified Remote to control media playing on your computer, use the iPhone as a keyboard or a mouse, navigate the browser, etc. There are more than 18 free remotes including the option to control Raspberry Pi. You just need to set up a server on your computer once and that’s it. You would never want to get up from your couch after this.
Unified Remote is free to use and you can unlock all the locked features with a one-time purchase.

4. Vibrator
Every iPhone comes with an inbuilt vibrating motor, also known as the Taptic Engine to offer haptic and vibrational feedback. It’s generally used to provide feedback when you tap on a button or when you receive a call or a notification. This app takes the Taptic Engine and creates rhythmic vibrations in various patterns. The app has 12 different vibration modes and three different speed settings. You can get this app for free and unlocking everything would cost you $1.99/mo.

5. Tunity
If you live in the US and go out for a drink or a sports bar, you’d always find a muted TV with programs running. Tunity lets you scan the TV and stream the audio right from the iPhone. Once the channel is identified, the app automatically syncs time, program, and also saves channel for later streaming. Tunity is free to use and ad-supported which you can disable by paying premium.

6. Baby Monitor TEDDY
If you have small kids in your house that you need to supervise from a distance, this baby monitor is the perfect companion. You just need an old iPhone/iPad to act as the video camera and transmit the feed over Wi-Fi. You need to set up the app on both devices once and it’s done. After that, get live feeds of your kids from the other room.
To prevent the iPad/iPhone from powering down, make sure to attach the power cord and keep the device charging. The app is completely free.

7. Zombies, Run
If you love running then this app puts an innovative spin on it. It’s an immersive adventure game that uses your GPS location to put you on the map and simulate zombies around you. You would have to actually get away from the vicious monsters by running and collect supplies to recover. The app creates an audio narrative with upbeat soundtracks to make the entire run incredibly fun.
Zombies, Run is free to use on your iPhone and you can unlock sidequests and other items with in-app purchases.
It’s undoubtedly one of the coolest apps for iPhone users.

9. WearYourMask
I often forget to grab a face mask on my way out and WearYourMask is a literal lifesaver. The app is really simple. You put in your home address and enable location permissions and that’s it. It would send a notification as soon as you move away from your home location. WearYourMask is free on the App Store.

10. RunPee
RunPee is a cool one-of-a-kind iPhone app that offers the best time to go run for a pee break when watching a film in the theaters. The list of films is added every week and whenever a new film is released, it is automatically added to RunPee. To get the alerts, you sit down to watch the film and begin the movie timer on the app. Whenever a break is available, you’d get a silent vibration on the iPhone. RunPee is free to use and works on a digital currency called Peecoins which you can purchase with in-app purchases.
