Whether you are wrapping up your Valentine’s plans or just getting started, there are a lot of apps on the market to help you make the day a special one. Here’s a round-up of some Valentine’s Day-themed apps and website goodies:
e-Cards
YourCards is an app for iPhone or iTouch that allows you to send an animated app-based greeting via email, text, Facebook or Twitter. It’s actually an app you can use all-year round, with categories for Birthday, Anniversary, Thank You, Just Because, as well as Love and Dating. A bit of advice from one user (me) – make sure you preview the card before you send it, not all the cards on the home page are Valentine’s cards.
Download YourCards – Lions and Bears from iTunes – 
A super-easy way to send a quick and artsy e-Valentine is through the Kate Spade website. A gallery of e-Valentines are ready for the choosing, plus it’ll get you points for good taste.
Poetry
I Write: Love Poems guides you through the process with step-by-step instructions to inspire you to take that chance and for those of you looking for a little more adventure there is also an erotic version.

Seek inspiration from the words of others with Love Quotes 500. This app contains hundreds of quotes from the likes of Shakespeare to Judy Garland in a flip-able format. If all goes well this Valentines Day and you find yourself planning a wedding someday, check back in on this for quotes for your wedding invitation or program. :-)

Music
If you’d rather set the mood with music, check out Love Songs — 100 Greatest of All Time. The Top 100 Love Songs application plays the “full tracks of the greatest 100 love songs ever made” in shuffle mode. (Note: Whether these are the greatest is debatable – and you can take your opinions on Michael Bolton to their forum.) Top 100 Love Songs requires a connection to a 3G, Edge, or Wi-fi network to stream the music to your iPhone or iPod Touch.

Food 
Cook a meal (or make an impressive dessert)with romantic recipes from Valentine’s Recipes #2. (The first version of this app is free, but doesn’t have as many recipes.)

If you’d rather head out, guarantee your reservations with OpenTable.

Love-testing Apps
Does [insert name] see and appreciate the uniqueness of who you are? Use The Questions to find out. This app is based on a deck of conversation-starter cards designed by a psychologist. Sit down with your partner for a series of probing questions; afterwards the app summarizes the ‘session’.
Download The Questions from iTunes –
Lovetricity
This app reminds me of those promotional cards you put your thumb on to determine your stress-level. Maybe it will cause some stress if you and your partner each put your thumb on this iPhone app and you get anything less than “burning hot”.
