60 Apps in 60 Minutes 2014

This past Saturday morning at ABA TECHSHOW in Chicago, Brett Burney, Chad Burton, Reid Trautz and I presented the 2014 installment of 60 Apps in 60 Minutes.  We highlighted a variety of apps including some great new apps, some perennial favorites, and some that were thrown in mostly for the entertainment value.  Here is a the full list.  Many apps are free, but note that some of those require subscriptions or can have extra fees associated with them (e.g. the WestlawNext and Lexis Advance apps).  All of them are worth taking a look at.

Except for the Hangtime! app.  I don’t care what Reid said, I beg you to avoid that one.  Seriously, just don’t do it.

For the apps that I previously reviewed here on iPhone J.D., I added a link to the app name.
