Facebook iPhone App Updated – Groups, Deals, Places Improvements

Today, the Facebook iPhone application received an update. The update includes the addition of Groups and Deals as well as improvements to the Places feature (see full change log below). The new Groups feature has replaced the Requests option on the main page. I also noticed that the News Feed now displays three options at the top of the page; Photo, Status and Check In… allowing you to quickly do one of those three things without having to leave your News Feed.

TGI Black Friday – The Must-Have Black Friday Application

Available In: App Store       Price: Free  

TGI Black Friday TGI Black Friday, powered by TGIblackfriday.com and DealCatcher.com, is the ultimate Black Friday application. I received an email about this app over the week-end and since downloading it… I have spent WAY too much time on it! I’m pretty sure it has every feature you could want in a Black Friday specific application. Not only that but, it is nicely organized and easy to navigate.

Upon opening the app, you will find five options on the lower menu bar; Home, Stores, Categories, Search and My List. In the Home option you are given a list of the most popular Black Friday deals as well as a list of the newest Black Friday ads that have been added to the application. The Store option will list all the stores (in alphabetical order) that have already released their Black Friday sales… if you scroll all the way down, you will see a grayed-out list of stores that are still due to release their Black Friday sales.

Yowza!! – Location Based Coupons

yowza We recently heard about a pretty cool application called Yowza!! Yowza!! is a location based coupon application. Not only does it display deals that are near your location, it also has the ability to display/scan coupons right on your iPhone or iPod Touch’s screen…which I honestly will have to see to believe but will be totally psyched if it works…I have always wanted to do that!! The app will also allow you to save previously searched for coupons in a “digital wallet” for future use. You can find out more about Yowza!! on their website. There is no ETA on when the app will be available in the App Store, though you can sign up on their website to be notified once it is. We do know that it will be free! So, that is cool!

Recent App Store Deals

AppStore Below are some of the applications that went on sale today. Asphalt 4 went from $9.99 to $7.99. You can check out a review of Asphalt 4 HERE. The rest of the applications were paid apps that are now free.

Note: Many of the apps below are only free for a limited time (I forgot to mention that last night). Also, I spent A TON of time going through all the ones that went on sale to pick only the best of them so hopefully that helps you from having to do it yourself. Finally, we are having a few issues with our links…we should have that fixed soon and the link will bring you directly to the app instead of just into iTunes. The links should be working properly now!
