Well, iBooks of course, because knowledge is power is survival. I also like the app called Educreations, which is like a smart board of sorts (there are many lessons on there already, with a few that'd be useful for a survival/rebuilding role). There are loads of different amateur radio apps that can be had that I haven't yet delved into (not until I get my HAM radio license), but there is one called RepeaterBook that shows what repeaters are near you. Star Walk is also great for astrology stuff (which will become important once again).
There are a whole host of math/science/tech stuff also. There is one called ElecToolKit for electrical stuff, Units Plus for unit conversion (which, if you're like me, you need since you can hardly ever remember the conversion math for some things). And just a regular calculator is also great. The Maps and Google Earth apps are cool also, and you can take screen shots of certain areas so you'll have a "hard" copy of them. Encyclopaedia Britannica is rather useful also.
That's a few of the apps that I have. It'd be neat to have a post-apocalypse how-to app that teaches you step by step how to make and do things that'll help you survive thrive and rebuild. You may want to think about looking into that Lewis! Cheers!
