NY1 highlights the coolest and newest apps for your cell phone or mobile device in the twice-weekly segment “App Wrap.” NY1’s Adam Balkin filed the following report.

GoodFoodNearYou

There are dozens of mobile apps that use GPS to tell the prettiest, weirdest, fanciest and most delicious places to eat near wherever you happen to be standing. The "GoodFoodNearYou" app since it tries to help users find the closest healthiest dishes. It's not necessarily new, hip, trendy health joints, but rather healthy options in the surrounding restaurants.

For example, a user who is near a Starbucks, a Domino's Pizza and a Papa John's will be advised by the app to head over to Domino's and get the "Garden Fresh Salad." The app even lays out all the nutritional information for the restaurants' various choices. Users can also choose an eating establishment based on a number of possible criteria, including proximity or a nutritional number like fat, calories, carbs or protein.

"GoodFoodNearYou" is a free app available right now for just the iPhone or iPod Touch.

RunKeeper

Those who forgo healthy eating options and would rather work off the extra calories can use a bunch of fitness apps that track workouts based on GPS.

RunKeeper, for example, lets users choose the exercise of their choice -- running, walking,
biking, skiing, skating -- and then uses the GPS to track how far they have gone, how fast they are going and how many calories have been burned.

Users can then save and share their workouts, and those who log onto the app's website can either map out a potential route on Google Maps or see a route already taken on Google Maps.

"RunKeeper Lite" is available as a free app on the iPhone, iPod Touch and Android
phones. "RunKeeper Pro," which offers some other options like workout audio cues, target paces and the ability to take geotagged photos during the workout, costs about $10.
