Instead of starting a new thread I thought I'd revive this one.
I've been using an app on android for a bit called waze (it's on ios too). It's been super handy for me on numerous occasions. All the users update the map with 'reports' like construction, traffic and weather conditions, police sightings, accidents, red light cameras, etc. Granted, the reports are useless while on the bike unless you have a mount for your phone, but I use it primarily in my car. It has let me know that there was a police sighting xxxx feet ahead, so I slowed down immediately and sure enough there was one. My favorite function is the gas prices. Users post prices when they're at the station and you can scan the area for a list of gas prices nearby.
On that note, I also use an app called my cars. I don't know if it's on ios. I use it to log miles, gas price, and effectively mpgs. You can also log services. It in turn illustrates your costs, usage, etc.
Check em out; hope they're as useful for you guys.
