Today, there was an update to FaceMic, an app that allows you to record audio and then send it straight to your Facebook page (posting it on your “wall”). The update adds quite a few new features (see change log below). Two of the coolest new features include the ability to upload photos with audio recording and the ability to pick a specific friend and post an audio recording to their wall! Read more

We recently did a review of FaceMic, an application that allows you to record audio and then send it straight to your Facebook page (posting it on your “wall”). Well TweetMic is the same concept only via Twitter. It allows you to record audio and then send it as a tweet. Very cool.
TweetMic functions basically the same as FaceMic. When you first open it, you will need to go to the Setup option where you will enter your Twitter info. You can also change the default phrase under the Setup option. Read more

No need to type your Facebook update…now you can speak it! FaceMic is a pretty cool application that allows you to record audio and then send it straight to your Facebook page (posting it on your “wall”). FaceMic is very well designed and extremely easy to use.
When you open FaceMic, you will notice four options on the lower menu bar; Record, History, Setup and About. You will want to start with the Setup option. Here you will need to enter your Facebook info (email address and password). Once you have finished entering your info, you will then need to select the Grant Permission option. That is all it takes to setup FaceMic. Read more

My wife and I like to play a game called “I liked it better when…” Whenever we see a movie, commercial, or something that seems to be duplicating a prior idea, we’ll say “I liked it better when…” and insert the name of the idea that’s being copied. In the case of Readdle’s Take a Note, I liked it better when it was called Evernote.
Overview
Almost eerily identical to Evernote, the opening user menu of Take a Note gives you options to add a text note, an audio note, a drawing note, and a photo note. All notes that are created on the iPhone are editable, sortable, and searchable. WiFi access gives you the option to transfer notes to and from your computer or other wireless enabled sources. Notes can be emailed directly from the program and the app uses your contacts list to add recipients. Read more
Cycorder 0.9-4 Update
| Available In: Cydia | Price: Free |
The expected update is now out for Cycorder which includes audio. I tried it out this morning and the audio quality is really good. There’s a list of other updates in the change log in Cydia like colorized navigation buttons and minor badge fixes. But a really nice feature update is TV out supported playback. I assume that this means if you use the iPhone or iPod Touch TV Out Adapter from Apple that you can watch your videos from Cycorder on your TV. Another added feature keeps your iPhone from autolocking during recording.
Overall a very nice update and great quality. Now there just needs to be features to email or send to YouTube and it will be perfect! Leave your comments below on what other features you’d like to see

| Available In: App Store | Price: Free |
Talking Spanish PhraseBook is a handy little application that translates common English phrases into Spanish. The best part about the application is that you are able to play audio of the Spanish translation. When you open the application you will get a list of topics that include; Essentials, Travel, Accommodation, Food and Drink, Socializing, Shopping, Medical, Dates and Time, Numbers, Emergencies and Copyright Info. Inside each topic, you will then get a list of categories in that topic or a list of phrases to choose from.
For example in the Essentials topic, there are phrase such as; Do you speak English, I don’t Understand…etc. In the Accommodations topic there are four categories; Locating, Booking, Requesting and Complaints. In each of these you will find phases such as; I’m Looking for a hotel, Do you have any vacancies, May I have another towel…etc. When you select a phrase, Read more
tt-clock 1.0
tt-clock is a 4-way digital clock that talks made by Jake Wolpert. When you start the application, you have to tap the screen once more in order to get to the clock. The clock is set in military time and there is no way to change that. Your iPhone/iPod Touch can be in landscape mode and upside down, or portrait mode and upside down. Either way, the digital clock will change according to the direction and it changes color according to the direction as well! Another thing I found was if you lay your device flat it will sometime go black and if you flip it over, the application will crash. If you tap the digital clock, you will hear a robotic voice telling you the time. The voice does not tell you the exact time but it Read more
