This week’s home screen features Geoff Barrall (Twitter). Geoff is the guy that came up with the Drobo and then followed that up with the Transporter. Geoff's a geek, like us, and love’s his iPhone. Despite Geoff’s serious job (and picture), I’ve honestly never seen him without a smile on his face. So Geoff, show us your home screen.

What are some of your favorite apps?

Apps I use all the time that aren’t on my home screen are - OpenTable (lot’s of business dinners), ETrade, Starbucks (to pay for coffee), Plex to sync video for trips from my Drobo 5N and ComiXology.

Which app is your guilty pleasure?

On the iPad it’s Castle Panic for sure. I’ve spent a lot of time on that one.

What is the app you are still missing?

The original version of Siri (before the acquisition) was really interesting. It could plan a whole trip for you. I know the founder a little and he had big dreams for the way it’d connect many many services. I’m hoping Apple get it back to that position long term so it really becomes a mobile personal assistant.

How many times a day do you use your iPhone?

All the time. I use it for notes in meetings and to hold my agenda. Even when sitting at my PC I use both depending on which is easier.

What is your favorite feature of the iPhone/iPad?

Everything in sync, contacts, calendar etc. This has really been working well for me in recent years.

If you were in charge at Apple, what would you add or change?

Sandboxing & The App Approval process. It’s at a point where the best OS X Apps aren’t in the App Store anymore. The App Store could be really awesome. I think it’d just take Apple to trust the companies making Mac software a little more (not everything needs to be Sandboxed). The new extensions for iOS was a great step in the right direction so I’m hopeful Apple is on a better track now.

What’s your wallpaper and why?

I think it’s still the default. Busy.

Anything else you’d like to share?

If there was I’d use Transporter to do it! :D

Thanks Geoff.
