Innovative iPhone Apps GUI (Part 1)

Hi Guys,
Today I am going to talk about the innovative GUI designed by some of the coolest iPhone Apps. I have taken into consideration the way in which the information has been represented in this applications considering the screen size of iphone. The applications that I am talking about are all free apps yet so innovative so you can download and try them (Especially for Developers trying to make innovative GUIs).

The apps that we are going to talk about are:

1) E*Trade Mobile Pro

2) DayLite Touch

3) Capsuleer

4) USA Today

As we go on will add a few more to this list but for this post I am going to talk about these 4 apps that I found has a very innovative and cool GUI.

So lets begin with the E*Trade App:

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4

This app is amazing. It is basically meant for E*Trade users. But there are a few screens which you can view without logging to the application. The top custom designed menu in the application is an amazing way to show case the things. (A comment for iphone Developers). The tables in the Market Section (Figure 3) and Protfolio Section (Figure 4) shows a lot of statistics and data. I liked the way they have customized the behaviour of the native iPhone TableView. The view in the Trading Screen (Figure 1) is a perfect example for a customView. A very neatly desinged way to display data at the same time taking into consideration screen size.
I would give a 85 on a scale of 100 for this awesomely designed GUI.

Next in the list is DayLite Touch:

This app is an award winner application. If you look at the pictures above it clearly justifies the reason for it. If i talk about the GUI this application is totally a reverse of the E*Trade Application. The GUI is mainly designed the using the components provided in the iphone SDK. It has customization but not to a very high level which helps in maintaining the simplicity.

Oops I almost forgot to mention what this application is all about. This app is an extension to the DayLite Business Suite available for MAC Users. Daylite Touch helps their customers manage their business and team, keeping everyone on the same page and helping them stay on track and deliver on time.

The best part of the GUI is the Day View Calendar. In my opinion it is better than iCal. It has multitouch feature in it. So whenever you want to schedule an event using a Day View you just have to hold the screen with one of your fingers and drag your another finger from the start time to the end time of the event. A dynamic bubble kind of view be drawn on the screen which will display the event you want to schedule. Based on the type of the event it will have a specific color in the day View. Rest all screens are also neatly designed but the calendar view was the best one I found.
A clear 76 out of 100 for this Winner of a 2009 Macworld Best of Show award.

The next 2 applications are going to be in the Part 2 of this article. So just wait and watch.
