The Apple App Store celebrates its first anniversary tomorrow (11 July). In the last twelve months more than 50,000 applications have been added to the site, some of which have bordered on the ridiculous. Apps like iFart, Baby Shaker and the ludicrously expensive I Am Rich app, which cost $999, have made the headlines as developers let their imagination run wild.

This got me thinking – what ridiculous apps don’t exist? Here’s a list of 10 that don’t and probably never should. Let me know if you can think of any more!

1. iDon’t believe it! – Lets ‘One Foot in the Grave’ fans hear the dulcet tones of Victor Meldrew at the touch of a button
2. Phone a friend – Fancy a rant, but none of your friends are picking up their phones? This app will murmur in agreement as you get things off your chest
3. Why iMan – Translates Cheryl Cole’s Geordie accent so that American fans of the X Factor can understand what she’s saying – according to the Mirror they’re baffled!
4. Tweets ahead – Alerts you to people twittering nearby so you can tweet-up and awkwardly talk about twitter before blocking each other’s account
5. Whatever the weather – Brings up a list of locations where the weather is worse than it is where you are, so you don’t feel so glum when it’s raining
6. Isn’t he cute? – Oohs and ahs at people’s baby pictures – so you don’t have to!
7. Bookface – Helps you connect and share with the book characters in your life
8. Rock-paper-scissors – The ultimate labour saver! Randomly displays a picture of  rock, a piece of paper or a pair of scissors  so you don’t have to go to the effort of using your hands
9. Hammer time – The world’s most untouchable app. Reads out the time in MC Hammer’s voice whether you want it to or not
10. Cloud call – Records your phone calls and presents them to you as a handy word cloud
