Eight great iPhone apps for Mother's Day

Is your mom addicted to social media? If so, check out the Mother’s Day Cards and Frames app ($1.99). This iPhone app let’s you create a custom Mother’s Day card by accessing your mom’s photos on her Facebook page or from your library. Then, you can post the card on her wall or print out the actual card. It’s really easy, so you can do it to honor all your family and friends who are mothers.

If you have more time on your hands, check out the ScrAPPbook app (99 cents) and build a virtual scrapbook for your mom, including photos, videos and sound. You can even share the scrapbook on her Facebook page. What better way to pay tribute to Mother Earth than by going green, and your mom by gifting her with memories?

Started by an actress and mother of four, Brooke Burke, and a partner, the goal of Modern Mom is to help moms find balance, relevance and consciousness, and offer resources in one convenient location.

The Bank of Mom app ($1.99) gives moms with multiple children a way to keep track of allowances. Start an account for each child and enter in activities for which they earn more money or instances where they’ve spent their money. It’s a virtual allowance bank you can take with you wherever you go.

Intuition: Mom's Personal AssistantThe free Intuition: Mom’s Personal Assistant iPhone app is a really cool and interactive to-do list for busy moms on the go. Keep track of tasks by category including calls, errands, grocery shopping, wish lists, family activities and more. My favorite part is the "Tasks by Location," which shows you if you are near, say the dry cleaner, if you need to pick something up while you are out and about town. Never forget to pick up a kid from soccer practice again!
