What good is an iPhone if you can’t run a tricorder on it? Hiding out in the app store is this little gem called Tricorder TR-580, with realistic sound effects and a hidden trove of data. Somewhat of a cross-series hybrid, it’s not an official Star Trek studio release but definitely worth 99 cents.
You can track crewmates in the field too. Makes a good companion to the iPhone Communicator app!
