Flickr 1.1 Update Adds Two Major Features

IMG_0282
Available In: App Store       Price: Free  

FlickrThe official Flickr app has always been a let down for me. It’s missing some major features and made the app useless. There are still some features I’d like to see but I’ll post them at the end of this article. The new update adds two major features that should have always been there but props to the developer for finally getting them in there and for overall great UI design.

One of the new features now lets you upload more than one photo or video at a time. Although it’s a nice feature, the way it’s designed is not intuitive. You tap upload, select 1 picture, then it loads a screen to add info to that picture. To add another, tap “Add Item” and it brings you back to the camera roll. What’s annoying is if you are loading 10 picture from about 20 pictures ago, you have to do this for each one and have to scroll up each time because it loads at the bottom of the camera roll. Once you get them in, you can tap on each picture to edit the individual pictures info.

IMG_0020
Available In: App Store       Price: $4.99  

Aqua Forest 2 Aqua Forest 2, by Hudson Software, recently hit the App Store. It is a sequel to the first Aqua Forest game which is one of Doug’s favorite games.

Aqua Forest 2 contains two modes; Puzzle and Endless. The object of Aqua Forest 2 is to navigate water droplets. Honestly, I’m exactly sure why it is called Aqua Forest 2… it doesn’t look to be very similar to the original Aqua Forest game. You can pick up Aqua Forest 2 for $4.99 (the original Aqua Forest remains at it’s original launch price of $7.99).

App Store Description:

The sequel to the unique and popular puzzle game “AQUA FOREST” is here!

This game challenges you to guide a drop of water from start to finish across a variety of beautiful photorealistic levels, including leaves, mossy rocks, flower petals, and more. Simply tilt your phone to make the water move, thanks to the technology of the “OctaveEngine™ Casual” 2D multi-physics engine.

FEATURES
・”Puzzle” Mode
In Puzzle Mode, your goal is to guide as much water as possible to the finish. There are 50 stages in total, with

several types of stages, including ones where you must gather multiple water
drops or ones that require you to split water drops. Try to get 100% of the water to the goal, without spilling even the tiniest drop!

・”Endless” mode
In this mode, complete as many levels as possible before you run out of water. However much water you save at the end of one stage is how much you begin with in the next stage. See just how far you can get, and check your Top 10 scores to see how well you’ve done so far.

Twittelator Pro Update Brings Lists, Reply All, TwitLonger and A Lot More!

IMG_0103
Available In: App Store       Price: $4.99  

Twittelator ProSome may think this app is high priced at $4.99 but with updates almost every month or more and this list of new features you might change your mind. The biggest feature on the list is support for Twitter’s new lists. You can see others’ lists, create a new one, and add users to lists. The only problem I had was I went over my API connection limit after adding people to lists. If you want to do mass amounts of people, keep using the twitter.com website. If you just need to do some updating every once in a while or see your lists, you should be fine.

This update also added a few third party features like “What The Trend?”, Tlists, Follow Cost, Tweet Blocker, favrd, favstar, & TwitLonger. Another feature which is pretty kewl is a reply to all. If someone you follow tweets an at reply to one or more people, you can hit “reply to all” and a new tweet is started with @replies to all users. There are even more featues listed below: [Read more...]
