Available In: Cydia |  |
Price: Free |
Yesterday, Categories, an application that allows you to organize the applications on your SpringBoard into folders, received a few updates. The update to version 2.27 was the major one which basically includes an internal rewrite of the app making the app perform much quicker. Updates 2.27.1 and 2.27.2 were basically bug fixes. See the complete change log below.
After updating, I definitely notice an improvement in the app’s functionality. It is MUCH quicker and just feels less bulky. So far, I have not had one crash… which is great! Normally, Categories will crash a few times on me. I also love that when adding an application to a folder, the apps are now in correct Alphabetical order! It makes adding applications so much faster and easier!
Overall, a great update… you will want to be sure to update to update this one. You can get Categories via the BigBoss source.

Available In: App Store | |
Price: $1.99 |
A few weeks ago, we told you that Godzilab had announced a new physics game, iBlast Moki. The game hit the App Store late last week. I had a chance to test it out all week-end and I was not disappointed!
I am normally not too attracted to physics games (unlike Doug who LOVES them) usually due to the fact that they frustrate me to no end! So, when I downloaded iBlast Moki, I wasn’t sure how much I was going to enjoy the game but I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Read more

Price: $1.99 |
Yumsters! 2, a puzzle game by G5 Entertainment, has recently hit the App Store. Many of you may be familiar with the PC version of the game. The iPhone game has the same concept as the PC version… drag a Yumster to the fruit of the same color to start eating.
When I first took a look at Yumster! 2, I was slightly skeptical, I was not sure that it would give me the challenge I normally look for in a puzzle game. However, after the first few levels, I realized it was holding my interest a lot longer than I had expected. The object of the game is to drag a Yumster to the fruit that is the same color as the Yumster. A specific number of fruit is displayed in the taskbar at the top left of the play screen. You have to eat the fruit displayed it the taskbar before it scrolls to the end… if you have not eaten the fruit, it will drop onto the play field. Each fruit you eat gives you coins. At the end of each level your coins are added up. Read more
