ShapeWriter

ShapeWriter allows you to enter text by tracing word shapes instead of typing. There is a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it’s surprising how quickly you can draft an email. This is a base version – you can add email and texting support, copy and paste, search and back-up through an in-app purchase.

Instapaper Free

If you’re like me, you get your inspiration by reading. Sometimes you don’t always have time to go through an entire article. This comes in handy when I’m on Twitter and click on a link to an article. Normally I would favorite the tweet, but I never remember to go back. With Instapaper, I can mark the post “read later” and do just that. I can read it later, even when I’m offline.
