Living Earth HD
Living Earth HD is an absolutely stunning app to use. It’s universal so one purchase will get you a copy for your iPhone and iPad. It has 3 main features: World Clock, Alarm and Weather. What set’s it apart from other Weather, Clock apps though is the “Living Earth”. When launching you are presented with a 3D rotating earth not only does this show global coverage but also accurately shows where in the world it’s night-time and daylight. You can also manually rotate the Earth around or select one of your pre defined locations to instantly go there and get access to the current Weather,...
oneSafe
oneSafe is a universal app for iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad etc. It promises to keep your private information safe using 256 bit AES encryption. oneSafe is competing in an already overcrowded niche app market against some real heavyweights such as 1Password/LastPass/SplashID and many others etc. When you first launch oneSafe you are offered to set up a pass code. I like how this is presented with various methods to choose from including a pin code to a unique swipe gesture. And if one method isn’t enough you can opt to have two login methods before anyone can get in. Where oneSafe differentiates itself from its main competition is...
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...
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
SongExporter Pro
We have all done it. Reformatted the computer without making a backup of our iTunes library file. Then the realisation dawns on you and you start searching the web for software that will extract your music from your iDevice back to your computer. There are tons of applications that promise to do this free and paid they are however for the most part very hit and miss which can be a frustrating experience. Enter SongExporter for iPhone/iPad and iPod Touches. The only thing SongExporter requires is that you have a wireless network at home. It works across all operating systems and is about as simple...
Grazing – Web Browser
Grazing is a new universal web browsing app for iPad and iPhone’s. I haven’t tested it on the iPad yet so this review will be focused on the iPhone v2 of Grazing. When I heard about grazing I was intrigued. You have to be confident in your product to go up against a native app such as Safari and most browsers I have tested have failed to live up to or provide a better experience than Safari for iPhone/iPad. Grazing is about the closest to a full web browser experience I have come across in any browser app to date. That in itself is quite...
Panamp – The Music Player
Panamp is an interesting audio player for you music library. They face some steep competition in that the music player from Apple does a pretty good job as it is and has the advantage of being native. However saying that Panamp offers some interesting features that make a refreshing change from the usual way of managing your music and playlists. One of the best features is the ability to create dynamic playlists or ‘Queues’ of tracks you choose with a swipe. This feels incredibly intuitive in use. A swipe in the opposite direction will find all songs by that artist, their tracks and related albums....
Shine – Weather at a Glance
There are a lot of weather apps already on the appstore, so what’s different about shine, and why is it worth buying? Lets start with the User Interface. Shine is no doubt a beautiful app to look at. A lot of effort has been put into the UI and it shows. They haven’t just cracked the looks though, the whole interface is extremely simple and intuitive to use. At a glance you can view the current weather with an image that suggests what it may be like outside. A long with the current wind speed. Below this it shows a forecast for later in the...
