Any recommendations of "must have" go apps for the IPhone?

Saw the post for Go Eye... guessing this makes the list.

I'd start with SmartGo Kifu.

The Go Books (formerly SmartGo Books) app is excellent. There are some fantastic resources available in eBook form.

The Go iPhone apps I use all the time (roughly in order): SmartGo Books, WBaduk (great tsumego collection), SmartGo Kifu, GoQuest, Pandanet.

With limited time for go at the moment, the app I use most (by far) is GoQuest.
It's great for a quick game on 9x9 or 13x13, or for watching strong players (professional level) at those board sizes.

Having said that, I think SmartGo Kifu is the one that best qualifies as "must have".

The ones I use most regularly are Crazystone, SmartGo Kifu and Tsumego Pro. Pandanet is nice, but I rarely have time to sit on my phone for at least an hour playing a game against someone. I like it for viewing live games. I would recommend Dragon Stone (DGS) if you want to play turn based style games against people.

There's an app I have that I believe is just called "Tesuji" that has some nice problems in it.

I am sure that 90% of my usage on the iPad is Go Eye, tracking professional games every day. The rest is SmartGo Kifu, including Go Books.

I had no idea about Go Eye. That sounds awesome! $20 is a bit steep for this app for me at the moment, but I can see myself using this a lot.

Baduk Cap for converting images of go diagrams and board positions to SGF (now does live capture from video). EasyGo for practicing go problems (with spaced repetition study algorithm) and reviewing game records.

Yeah, I’m afraid I saw the early announcements and the 1000 post thread and relegated Go Eye to the list of interesting things I will never pay attention to. But these posts made me reconsider.
