Hi all,
I'm planning to venture into the land of smartphones via a new iPhone (prob 6 plus), which I will plan to use at least in part as a camera to keep on my person.  
I'd welcome any latest thinking re. apps for more than the basic automated controls for shooting - don't think there's been a thread on this for some time.  
Cheers in advance,
Dave

645 Pro if you want complete control of the camera as well as access to the RAW data from the sensor in a TIF file
Pro HDR X is the best app I've found for high dynamic range photography as it allows you to place the exposure bias point for three regions (generally a highlight, midtone and shadow region) and then adjust the HDR effect, color, contras, filters etc.
If you have a WiFi enabled camera then get the app that allows you to control your camera with the smart phone
LightTrac or some other app that shows you sun and moon angles overlayed on a Google Map
DOF Master is handy for quick DOF calculations
There are many many more tha people find useful so I'm sure others will chime in.
