Vista Perfection Keyboard 1.0

Vista Perfection Keyboard Vista Perfection Keyboard is a keyboard replacement application. When installed, it will replace your stock keyboard. I did notice that when you are in the number/symbol view on the keyboard and then hit the Shift key to get more symbols, the more symbols keyboard does not show up correctly. And when in Safari, it shows half of the symbols (from the first symbols keyboard) on the first symbols keyboard and then the other half on the second symbols keyboard. So, you do not get any symbols from the second symbols keyboard. Below are some screenshots. [Read more…]

Date Hide 1.0

Date HideWhen Date Hide is installed, it will remove the date from the Calendar icon on your iPhone’s SpringBoard. It will remove both the day (Friday, Saturday…) and the number (13, 14…) from the Calendar icon. This is great for themes in which the date does not fit correctly on the Calendar icon. I was able install and uninstall this application with no problem. You can get Date Hide via the Planet-iPhones source.

Note: When you install Date Hide…it will not add an icon to your SpringBoard it will just automatically take off the date on the Calendar icon.

SpeedRun 1.2

SpeedRun The update to SpeedRun 1.2, a Labyrinth style game, makes a few changes to the application. When the application opens, you will notice that the lower menu bar has changed. Instead of the middle options being Replays it has been changed to Players (though, don’t worry, the replays haven’t been removed from the application!). When you click on players, you are able to Rename the local player (that is you) by selecting Rename in the upper left corner. You will also notice that in the Levels option, there are new Level Packs. If you select a level pack, you will see the Replays option. If you select Replays in the upper right corner, it will ask if you would like to Synchronize Results. If you select Synchronize Results, [Read more…]

IntelliScreen 1.08

IntelliScreen The update to version 1.08 of IntelliScreen makes a few bugs changes (see list below). I am a huge fan of this application but, since they added IntelliDial…it has been driving me crazy! I normally press the Home Button to turn on my lock screen however, when I do, it now opens IntelliDial. Not only does IntelliDial take a few seconds to open, I then have to hit my Home Button again to get back to my lock screen so that I can slide to unlock. I wish there was a different way to get to IntelliDial or that it didn’t activate until your lock screen was awake. IntelliScreen is available through the Intelliborn source.

Bug Fixes for version 1.08:
    •Detail Info on SMS Privacy and International Weather in Settings
    •Mail and SMS overlaps when only if new when using first location
    •Bottom of IntelliScreen too short

Penguin Panic 3.0

Penguin Panic The update to Penguin Panic 3.0 does make a few changes to the application. The info tab, on the lower menu bar on the intro screen, has some new information. Instead of having Blue, Red, Yellow and Green snow flakes…there are now Blue, Purple and Black snowflakes. Blue is +500 points and makes your Penguin move faster, Purple is -500 points and makes your Penguin slower and the Black flakes will end the game. The Settings option has been implemented in the update. You are now able to choose between Easy, Medium and Hard skill levels and turn on/off the Deadly Flake option. However, the Deadly Fake option does not seem to work properly… [Read more…]

Tetris! 3.0

Tetris The update to version 3.0 of Tetris makes a few changes to the application. When you open the app, you will notice that the lower menu bar no longer contains the options; Main Menu, Credits, Info and Settings. Instead the lower menu bar now has the options; Donate and Start. This is ok because the credits have been moved to the intro screen and the Setting menu had not been implemented yet. So, the only thing you are losing is the more Info option. Once in the application, you will notice two new options on the lower menu bar; Pause and Hold Piece. [Read more…]

CookBook 2.0

CookBook CookBook 2.0 is actually the application BettyCrocker and/or Bettys CookBook…just with a new name. The application has been taken over by a new developer and has been moved to the BigBoss source. With the change, the application has received a new icon and a few new graphics. The opening menu has also changed and the new options include; Donate Please, Contact and Leave Application (which means Exit the application). The recipes are the same as before, no new ones have been added and the Custom option has been removed. I actually hope [Read more…]

I was hoping to see some additional features or maybe some improvement in the functionality of the application. However, the only change seems to be a new icon. Sculptor is available through the iSpazio source.
