iSolitaire Update 0.4

iSolitaire There was an update last night in the installer.app for iSolitaire. This is a great update! The app now keeps your settings. Before, you would have to go into the settings and change them back the way you wanted them every time you reopened the app. Now, when you open the app, it will have kept whatever options you last set. This is great for me since I like one draw and it used to automatically default back to three draw every time!! So, update away…

MobileCast 2.1b2 Review

One of the biggest downfalls of iTunes is not being able to download podcasts over wifi without iTunes. MobileCast now allows you to! Just add the feed’s URL and the feed appears. You can choose which episode to download and listen right from the app.

Piano Update 1.4

PianoYAY!! This update to Piano is exactly what I have been waiting for!!! I’m sooooo excited. The weird staticy noise is now gone and the piano sounds great! I can even play more then one note at a time. Sean is really on the ball tonight…great job!

Piano Update 1.4


Piano Update 1.3

Piano There has just been an update in installer.app to today’s iApp-a-Day – Piano. The update vastly improves the sound of the piano…instead of the video game tones you once heard…it now sounds much more like a piano. I did find that you can only play one note at a time now. Before the update you were able to play two notes at the same. And for some reason I am still getting the weird staticy noise every time I play a note. But, I like the update…I much prefer the new sound of the piano…good job Sean.

iApp-a-Day – Piano

Piano The app for November 26th is “Piano”. This is a fun little app. It opens to a screen of a piano, just tap on the keys to hear the tone. However, you will not hear the typical piano sounds, according to the developer, the sound is straight out of classic 8-bit video games. The only issue I have found with this app is that you can get some weird staticy noise if you tap the key quickly…it sounds better if you hold the key down for a second or two. Other than that…very cool…one even the kids would like!! Screenshots:

iApp-a-Day – World

World The app for November 25th is “World”. When you open this app it brings up a picture of the world. As you watch, it shows pictures from around the world. A little red icon moves to indicate where the picture was taken from. To add your own picture just tap on the screen. I think this is a very cool idea…the only I problem I see with it is that wherever you tap on the screen, that is where it says your picture was taken from. So, if you tap on Antarctica, without knowing how the app works, and then take your picture…when your picture comes up it will say you are from Antarctica. What would be really sweet is if it used ip addresses and tracked it that way. Here are some screenshots:

iApp-a-Day – Bard

Bard The app for November 24th is “Bard”. If you have played hangman then Bard will be no problem for you. Well, I take that back…since all the puzzles are Shakespeare’s prose. To choose a letter, tap on the prose you are trying to solve. Select the letter you want and tap “Could Be.” If you would like to look at the puzzle again without picking a letter, tap “Not To Be.” Each time you choose a letter it takes it out to of the option list…so, you don’t choose the same letter twice. If you pick a letter that is not in the prose it starts to build an image of a Bard (according to wiki a Bard is a professional poet from back in the day). You can only get 6 letters wrong before the game is over. Whether you have won or lost a screen pops up with a little saying and the option to play again. Below are some screenshots:

iApp-a-Day – Leftover

Leftover The app for November 23rd is “Leftover”. SURPRISE!! I can’t tell you how surprised I was to open my installer and see tomorrow’s app already there!! But, according to the developer, he put it out early for all of those who will be up bright and early to go shopping!! YAY shopping! I think this is a very cool and useful app (especially for tomorrow). The app opens to a screen giving you the basic gist of the app. To starting using the app just tap the screen. Next, you will need to add a category and the amount allocated to that category. My category is going to be Black Friday and my allocated amount is going to be $1000.00 (because rumor has it iMacs are going to be half price)!! [Read more…]

iApp-a-Day – Songbird

Songbird The app for November 22nd is “Songbird”. Today’s iApp-a-Day is in celebration of Thanksgiving. It opens to a gobbling turkey hopping around the screen. It then plays tracks out of your iTunes. You can go to the next random track by tapping on the turkey. This is very similar to another app called iPowerHour which plays 60sec clips out of your itunes for one hour. If you like this app you might want to check out that one too!
