With so many camera apps purporting to offer a fulfilling, professional-esque point-and-shoot experience to consumers, it can be fairly hard to keep up. In order to help budding photo aficionados in the bamboozling minefield that often is shopping for a camera app, the folk at Lucky Clan have scraped "features found in numerous camera apps," lumped a couple of their own unique features on top, and developed a surprisingly solid iOS app in Top Camera.
The iOS Music app (or iPod app, if you're running on an older firmware version) is a very basic amenity, and although it does exactly what it says on the tin in playing music, it's not the most exciting experience in the world. Tunebooth Music Player by mART is everything your native player isn't, and if you like apps based on gestures, customizable layouts and dynamic theming options, it sounds as though Tunebooth is the app you've been waiting for.
To celebrate a little bit of worldwide gaming history and to mark the 40th anniversary of the famous Pong game, Atari has taken the opportunity to release the first official Pong game onto the iOS App Store for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
Anyone visiting the Photos & Video category on the iOS App Store will be more than likely be aware that Apple's app marketplace is packed full of third-party camera and video apps that have been put before the public for purchase and download. Some of the offerings are fantastic and bring a whole new dimension to capturing pictures with an iOS device, while others are simply awful and don't really offer anything more than the stock Camera app in iOS. The new KitCam app from GhostBird Software definitely falls under the bracket of being a must-have for iPhone and iPod touch owning photography fans.
We live in a fast-paced, technologically advanced world at the moment and unfortunately for us - or fortunately depending on how you look at things - we always have some task to complete or some chore to run. A large number of people employ the services of productivity based applications that they run on their mobile device to make sure they keep to their commitments and deadlines and others like me just have a list of things to do and when it's done it's done. Thankfully, calendars are generally something that we can all beat our drums to and they don't really come any better than Fantastical creation by Flexibits.
Google has taken the world of Web browsers by storm in the past couple of years, with its Chrome offering quickly having become the utility of choice for surfers worldwide. The Android version has been solid from the get-go, and with the recent introduction of the iOS iteration, the Big G finally brought its famed browser to the iPhone and iPad. Despite Apple's restrictions on developers bringing their own engines to the iOS fold, the engine certainly isn't the end-all, be-all, and today's updates for Chrome on iOS today prove that point once more.
Last year, the release of 500px took the iPad world by storm. Prior to its release, there had been a distinct lack of photography apps suited to the Cupertino tablet, with devs preferring to cater to the iPhone. But 500px reminded us that a well-polished app for iPad can wind up being just as much of a hit with iOS users, and so it has proved. Now, the app popularized by the iPad has been wonderfully reworked for the iPhone, and is now ready and waiting for you at the App Store.
It was somewhat funny when I came across Tap-Translate. You see, in my professional life, my industry is actually Translations & Localization, and coming from that, I know how important it is to be able to read a foreign language write-up with the right deliverance of meaning to reach the right conclusion. This is even more important in certain industries and professions, like the financial services sector, but anyone using the internet can come across any such case where you might find some information useful to you in a language that you don’t understand, but would still want to read it. Thankfully, with browsers like Google Chrome, you can get a whole page automatically translated – complete with automatic source language detection – but what if you don’t have access to such a desktop browser? What if, like me, you, too, are a fan of browsing the web on your iPad?
Black Friday's name stems from the opportunity businesses have to turn a profit, or remain in the black, by making huge sales to customers enticed by the savings on offer. That's all very well for the companies, but on a personal level, it's important we too keep our heads above water, and as we collectively drag ourselves from the financial meltdown of a few years ago, we should take all the help we can get in maintaining financial stability. To mark Black Friday Weekend, we've had a little hunt through some of the best money apps available for iOS, and for all-round performance and ease-of-use, Budget with Back in Black has emerged as one of our favorites.
We're becoming increasingly reliant on our mobile devices to run many of our daily errands; so much so, in fact, that it can often be difficult to keep track of everything we've done. There are plenty of event-tracking apps available right now over at the App Store, but none do them quite like Last Time, a handy utility app for the iPhone.
