3. CRASH BANDICOOT NITRO KART 2

Plenty of mayhem to keep you entertained on your morning commute
Crash Bandicoot returns for more race track mayhem in this action-packed game, which is bigger and even more chaotic than the original. The goal is to beat your fellow road users to the finish line while attempting to avoid a series of obstacles along the way.
You can race either as Crash himself or one of nine other characters and you can even race against up to four of your mates at one time thanks to the nifty multi-player mode.
Price: £1.99

4. GETTAXI

A great app for cab commuters
As any city dweller knows, attempting to hail a black cab during rush hour is like trying to win the lottery without buying a ticket. You can end up waiting around for ages, only to find that every passing cab is either occupied or the driver isn't in the mood to stop.
That's where GetTaxi comes in. This app acts as a beacon that sends an alert to the next available cabbie closest to you. Simply activate the signal and the taxi will make its way to your location. There is also a tracking tool that allows you to track your cab, and a driver profiles feature which provides you with a profile of your driver - mugshot included - so you can quickly identify them once they've pulled up.

5. INSTAGRAM

Take retro snaps, just not of kittens
The retro-style photo app - a staple in every blogger’s iPhone - has been given an update that includes added support for the iPhone 5, so it fits perfectly on the device’s 4-inch Retina display.
For those who’re unaware of its smarts, Instagram allows you to add retro-style effects to your images and share them with your friends and family online, as well as with 80m other users. The firm recently decided to cut off its photo-card functionality for Twitter, so you cannot directly tweet Instagram snaps until further notice.
