Forum tip: Avoid using text speak abbreviations and, instead, use entire words. Such abbreviations can make your post difficult to understand, reducing the chances you'll get the help you'll need.

There are also many apps that have iPad only versions that do not scale down, so some of your apps may not work on the phone. Apps that have a plus sign by the 'get' button are universal apps that scale up and down as needed. -

If it"s not too late my I recommend getting a newer iPhone. The iPhone 4 can only be updated to IOS 7 meaning it's already two updates out of date as far as the app developers are concerned.
