Text looks sharper and clearer than ever and the keyboard is scaled down to match. That means more text on the screen at once and no scaled keyboard to worry about.

Vesper

Vesper is also a note taking app available for iPhone but sticks to a much simpler interface than computers such as Evernote. Launch Vesper, start typing, add some tags, and done. It’s already optimized for use on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus so you can see even more on the screen. And as always, your text is front and center while the rest of the app just melts away.

Screens

Screens lets you remotely access your desktop computer, or multiple computers, from anywhere right on your iPhone and iPad. It’s one of our [favorite remote desktop apps]( and using it on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus is a more enjoyable experience than ever before, thanks to the increase in screen real estate.

Overcast

Overcast is a beautiful and intuitive podcast app by Marco Arment, the creator of Instapaper. It may not have a lot of the same bells and whistles as some of the other podcast apps, but the user experience is unmatched, and that includes on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. If visually appealing is what you want, you definitely want to take Overcast for a test drive.

Clear

Clear is a gesture based task app that lets you tap, swish, and flick your way to being more productive than ever. I’ve always liked Clear’s gesture based interface but found it somewhat cramped for my liking on the iPhone 5s. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus on the other hand have brought a new appreciation to gesture based tasks. Not only does Clear look great, it’s super simple to use and much more powerful than the stock Reminders app.
