13 iPhone Apps for Graphic Designers If you’ve found a greater purpose for your iPhone besides calling or Googling directions, then you’d probably like to explore what your iPhone can offer you in the realm of graphic design.

CameraBag: This app allows you to simulate several different camera styles in a unique way. 4. 5. 6. ZeptoPad is a sketch pad tool for your iPhone. 7. 8. iBlueSky 9. 10. iPhlickr 11.
