Top 10 iPhone and iPad Apps of the Year 2011

The release of Garageband for iPhone and iPad alongside Pages and the iPad 2 was a clear message from Apple. It was time to take ambitious iOS apps seriously - when previously it had often put the iOS emphasis on other elements like web browsing, and consumption of content. Garageband is a complete composition tool, letting you record your own instrument or vocal tracks using an audio interface or microphone, or use the included loops and virtual instruments to do the job for you.
