Agenda Calendar

Agenda Calendar 2.0 has just been released and with it brings a universal iOS app compatible with both iPhone and iPad’s. Agenda is a beautifully hand crafted calendar app. The app focuses on keeping it simple whilst managing to execute the balance of form and function extremely well. If you just want a simple way to manage your events then Agenda has you covered. The layout is uncluttered and therefore really simple to follow. But if you need more advanced calendar management Agenda still has you covered with the ability to sync effortlessly with Google, Exchange and MobileMe calendars. One of the things I like...

Sleep Talk Recorder

Ever wondered or been told you talk in your sleep? Partners and friends have been telling me for years I talk in my sleep but I have always doubted them. So when I came across this Sleep Recorder app recently it piqued my interest and at only $0.99/£0.69 it was worth trying to find out. Its extremely simple you load the app set how long it should wait after being started before monitoring and it does the rest. I was surprised at just how well it works. On my iPhone 4 it doesn’t zap as much of my battery as I was expecting either. It works...

Quell Reflect

Quell Reflect is the sequel to Quell a beautiful app that had us mesmerised with its simplistic game play, challenging levels and mesmerizing music. So we were pretty excited when we discovered not much more than a year after its original release the developers have followed up with a sequel. Quell Reflect stays true to what made the original so great and manages to integrate several unique new additions that keep the game fresh and challenging. If you haven’t played the original I would seriously suggest you get both and play it first as its a timeless classic. 5/5

War Girmoire

War Girmoire is a tower defence game. The first thing you will notice when loading up War Girmoire for the first time is the level of detail and effort put into the sprites. It looks stunning. You start with an intro which can feel fairly long winded at points but helps you understand the mechanics behind the game and it can be quite technical so it’s worth paying attention. War Girmoire includes tons of options and abilities that go above and beyond your average TD game. For a start there are 60 types of weapons each of which can be upgraded in various ways depending...

Stratus: Cloud App

One of the problems I struggle with the most is getting information quickly from my Mac to my iPhone and vice-versa. I have tried a few solutions. but none are particularly eloquent or efficient when you just want to send a piece of copied text or a url. I also try to limit the amount of “crap” I have running on my Mac especially in the menu bar. But I do love & use http://getcloudapp.com for sharing stuff online and with colleagues so I was stoked to see a new iOS app called Stratus released. Not only is Stratus free it’s extremely well laid out....

Infinity Blade

The highly anticipated Infinity Blade has just been released, is there an iPhone owner who hasn’t been waiting for this game since the announcement was made a few months ago? First they gave us Epic Citadel which literally blew us away with the incredible graphics based on the unreal engine exclusively for iPhone. Infinity Blade is seriously raising the bar and we expect to see more polished, involving gaming experiences like this in the future. At only £3.49/$5.99 that’s an incredile price for what is effectively a triple A title and will no doubt have the competition (hello Sony and Nintendo) quaking. Infinity blade gameplay...

Momento

Momento is the missing iPhone app that should be included with every device. The app itself is pretty simple it’s a private diary slash life stream app for recording moments as you go optionally including various online services as well such as twitter, facebook, youtube, flickr, digg, gowalla and many more. It’s the execution of the app it’s layout and beautiful design that really make this app what it is. Every detail form the icon is beautifully crafted, the app is incredibly simple to use, clearly a lot of effort has been put into the UI and it’s paid off. Anyone familiar with any of...
