With over 3 Lac Applications available for download, Itunes is the largest Mobile Application Download
portal in the world today, slightly ahead of the wonderful android
market. Have you ever wondered in this gargantuan array of apps what are
the ones which rank among the most expensive ones? Can you imagine some of the Most Expensive Apps costs more than the iPhone itself! & believe me or not, some are actually worth it.
Without giving further adieu, here’s presenting WTFD’s list of the Most Expensive Apps available in the Apple itunes webstore. Have fun!
1. BarMax CA By BarMax LLC
Price : $ 999.99
Barmax is an angel in a costly disguise for law students. It is the only complete course for bar exam preparation; coupled with supplemental material and practice papers. It was Prepared by Harvard lawyers
in association with the iPhone Developers. The app is more than a GB
in size and covers as much material as 50 pounds of books and journals
would do for you. The scantily numbered reviewers of this hefty priced
app suggest that it was actually worth it!
2. iVIP Black By iVIP Ltd
Price : $999.9
You are now reading the description of the first ‘Millionaire App’
on iTunes store. You must be thinking it’s called so because of it’s
mighty price. Nope, the app actually requires you to authenticate that
you are a High Net Worth Individual (HNWI) , with Net Assets in excess of 1 million GBP. & considering the benefits of being in this exclusive millionaire club, you might actually feel cheated if you are not a HNWI.
Kudos to the millionaires though as
for this price the app has certain ego boosting services and surprises
for you to offer, along with the savings and upgrades you get with iVIP
partners in the hospitality business, which include Gordon Ramsay
Restaurants, Virgin Limited Edition (Necker Island, The Lodge Verbier,
and more.), Firmdale Hotels, and many other premium brands, venues and
services around the world.
iVIP covers all aspects of the luxury lifestyle
including butlers, theaters, personal trainers, private jets, a
concierge, casinos, personal styling etc. So, if you got it.. Go for it!
3. iRa Pro By Lextech Labs
Price: $899.99
Ira pro is one of the best surveillance apps available on the appstore which gives you direct access and control to your security cameras,
This iphone only app has a easy to use interface which gives you swipe
motion tilt and pinch to zoom control of unlimited number of security cams with a max of 6 thumbnails at a time.
The live feeds are made more
useful by the ability of the app to take screenshots. Yes, it’s
expensive, but it can be a huge pain reliever for those required to sit
and monitor security cams all day long on Huge monitors and LCD’s.
4. MATG – SAP BusinessOne By MyAccountsToGo
Price : $449.99
MyAccountsToGO (MATG)
– Accounting and financial information from the SAP BusinessOne
financial Management system are now directly accessible from your Apple
iPhone with this business oriented app. Designed for sales reps as well
as sales, marketing or finance executives, this app allows you to access
customers, sales order transactions, accounts receivable statements,
item master and item warehouse information.
The sales transactions include quotations, sales orders, sales invoices, back orders and returns. Tight integration with other iPhone features, such as e-mail and Google maps, will provide you with the ability to communicate effectively with your corporate office about any of your accounts.
5. PDR Quote By Labra PTY LTD.
Price: $349.99
PDR Quote is business management software
targeted towards PDR or Auto mobile repairs, allowing the user to
create professional Quotes and Invoices straight from their iPhone. The
app has limited functionality and we see this one as an inaptly
and exorbitantly priced application. Buy only if producing mobile invoices of professional quality is your prime concern.
6. MobileCamViewer client By mobiDEOS, Inc.
Price : $349.99
This is another mobile surveillance solution for
your iphone. The featureset includes Multiple user simultaneous access,
wide device support and the ability to control several cameras at the
same time. you can call this a downgraded version of the iRa pro app
& thus not highly recommended.
7. Lexicomp By Lexi-Comp
Price : $299.99

of Lexi Comp at the touch of a button. Lexi comp suite gives you access
to more than 20 different databases including Lexi-Drugs, Lexi-Interact

8. TuneLab Piano Tuner By Real-Time Specialties
Price: $299.99
Coming in at number 7 is another $300 app and is suited only for Professional Piano players
or technicians. The app is highly customizable and has the ability to
create separate profile for different pianos. I’d rather buy
professional tuning equipments than investing money in an app that can
even get accidentally deleted on the touch of a button.
9. Lexi Dental Complete By Lexi-Comp
Price: $285
Another Comprehensive clinical app
from the house of lexi-comp which features extensive databases in the
Dental field. One year subscription of this suite will set you back by
$285 . I did not quite like the official thumbnail image though.
