Treat private confidential photos and more in a briefcase-sort of app easily, complete with password lock and multiple import options including iTunes and Dropbox! There’s even a guest mode that you can trick those prying eyes from sneaking into your collection. Free version limits to 20 photos imports from iTunes, upgrade to

With its beautiful interface, you can easily write up any quote or just about anything worth remembering and inspiring to you. If you share it, who knows how many cats would love it.
Watchlater
UNIVERSALIf you’re looking for a way to cache and download YouTube/Vimeo videos, this is it. Easily search for any videos, stream it, or cache it (download) to watch offline. However, you’re limited to 60 minutes of caching for free, or pay up $1.29 for an additional 150 minutes. Nevertheless, its our only way to download YouTube videos on iOS so I think its worth it paying for. Recommended!
