The Apple Editor’s Choice App for Managing Your Money
You might have noticed this on other blogs earlier today: Apple approved an app called Handy Light, which was pretty similar to other flashlight apps on the App Store. Except for one little insignificant and absolutely unnoticeable detail for American users: it allowed tethering on the iPhone.
With AT&T. For free. Boom.
You’re looking to push every ounce of energy you have into your current HIIT (High-intensity Interval Training) workout. As the intervals pass you buy, the music constantly changes to fit your tempo. One minute you’re being blasted with the relaxing beats needed to calm down and get juiced, the next minute the tempo increases to induce a heavy metal jolt of heart wrenching cardio. This is Seconds, the HIIT, circuit, and fight training utility designed to keep you in rhythm.
When the iPhone 4 was announced, there was one feature many of us were skeptical about: the gyroscope. I think the problem was that many didn’t catch the differences between an accelerometer and a gyroscope, and Steve’s jenga demo surely didn’t help in making these differences very clear. Ngmoco’s first FPS for the iPhone 4 was the first app to truly take a adavntage of the new technology.
Acrossair, developers of many AR apps for iPhone, decided to give us a demonstration of how much their AR browser can be different whether it’s run on an iPhone 4 and a 3GS.
The App Store is filling up with original section created by Apple every week, and we’ve recently noticed that this trend is growing - sometimes they even launch 2-3 section each week. Today’s one is good: Comics.
While Incipio isn’t giving anyone any freebies, they will give you five bucks towards one of their awesome cases. Macworld reports:
Incipio on Monday announced its “We Love Our Customers Too!” Bumper Trade-In Program. The short of the long is: you send Incipio your Apple iPhone 4 Bumper (which you presumably will obtain for free soon), and it will give you $5 off any Incipio product from its online store.
So get a rebate or a free bumper from Apple, turn yours into Incipio, get a $5 dollar coupon, and buy big baby.
I hate to steal headlines, but this one from Fusion of Ideas was just too good. Listen guys, you can get an Apple bumper or any of the other cases Apple will have on sale. That’s cool. But for some, we don’t want to ruin the original form factor or pocket-ability of a sexy device. That’s why Fusion of Ideas is giving away their Steal Armor side pieces for free. You heard right.
It charges your iPhone. It has its own app. If you can pony up $40 for the Jackpot Slots dock, I hear you have the chance to win a free bumper.
Mac users are always inherently curious about a few pieces of Mac software that always tend to make waves in functionality that they have absolutely no use for. If we look at products like Transmit 4, Launchbar 5, and especially something like TextExpander 3, the average consumer will have questions about its design and they’ll read really great things about the software. But, they’ll have absolutely no use for such software unless they’re power users or have a specific need.
TextExpander is probably the app that garners tons of attention. It’s really powerful, especially to customers who need to constantly implement snippets of text. But TextExpander touch becomes even more curious, as it’s implemented with similar functionality, sans the ability to directly apply snippets into any text based app. In effect, TextExpander touch for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad seems rather counterproductive in design. But I’ve found that while there’s an extra tap here and there, it’s incredibly useful for email, especially on the iPad. If you’ve been on the fence about TouchExpander touch, I suggest read on to find out how it may be useful in your workflow.
