Pinterest for iOS

Pinterest gives you access to all kinds of information, project ideas, recipes, and more, and you can keep track of it all right from your iOS device. Whether you just want to browse to kill some time or you need an idea for that last perfect dish to complete your dinner party menu, you'll find everything you're looking for and more in this app.

Pros

Social engagement: Not only can you search for specific ideas and items through this app, but you can also follow other users who share your interests or who have expertise in certain areas. And you can also share anything you find quickly via Facebook or in private messages sent through the app.

Pinning photos: If there's anything you come across in your browsing that you want to save, you can pin it to one of the boards you create in the program. But you aren't limited to pinning things found on Pinterest. In fact, you can take photos of things you see and like anytime on your phone or other device, and then pin it to a board in the app later on, so you don't lose track of it.

Cons

Jumbled navigation: This app has an attractive interface, but the navigation is a little jumbled. Moving from one section to another is not terribly intuitive. While you will find your way around eventually, it can be a little confusing at first.

Bottom Line

The Pinterest app brings everything you love about the website to your iOS device. It works smoothly and includes some nice features to enhance the usefulness of the service. While it could use a better organizational framework, it's not too hard to use once you get the hang of it -- and it's completely free.
