Slotomania 1.0.4 Review

Slot machines have an oddly addictive quality. At any given time, you want to see just one more spin -- to know where it will land. The problem, of course, is that video slots are also immensely complex and the cost can add up fast. So an iPad version that doesn't cost real money to play is a perfect solution. Slotomania does a great job of translating that addictive quality to the small screen, but is it enough to warrant a download?

You start the game with 200 coins. These coins are then bet in each game on however … Read more

Surround Video 1.0 Review

Surround Video is not an app in the sense that you can actually do anything with it. There are no buttons to create your own videos and no way to edit or add content to the existing videos. The content that is provided is almost entirely technical demos of what Surround Video can do, but it is still an interesting experience. As more of these videos are added it will be interesting to see what filmmakers choose to do with Surround Video.

When you open this app, you will find four technical demos of what Surround Video does. The technology … Read more

Mad Man 1.0.1 Review

Mad Man is the newest in a long line of apps channeling the faux retro arcade feel of the '70's when many games were about space, neon lights, and time limits. In this case, you are pitted against an opponent online and must move your light across the screen without it being hit by any of the obstacles, including your opponent. The result is quick and entertaining, though ultimately lacking due to some design decisions.

The interface is fun and easy to use. The game loads quickly, the music is suitably old-school, and the graphics are both bright and … Read more

iTagPlayer 1.0 Review

There are quite a few music apps for the iPhone - apps that allow you to play your music, create playlists or download music differently than you would in iTunes or the Music app. However, few of those apps offer anything unique or different from Apple's built-in tools. iTagPlayer manages to do so, albeit in a limited package. However, despite its limitations, iTagPlayer is worth checking out because of the unique way it presents your music.

When you turn on iTagPlayer for the first time, it starts scanning your music for tags related to the genres of that music. … Read more

QQ Player 1.0.187 Review

Android's built-in video player is fine, but it doesn't support all of the formats you probably use. QQ Player supports more formats and has a few standout features, as well, but the video and audio quality aren't stellar and the app's menus can be tough to navigate, too.

The app's language is a mix of Chinese characters and broken English, which makes it difficult to understand at times. It gives you an annoying message every time you try to exit, too. When you first use the app, it can take a while for it to … Read more

Pics2Flix Lite 1.0.31 Review

Creating an animated image seems like a lofty task if you're not already an expert. Sadly, mastering heavy-duty coding and photo editing skills would probably be easier than using this app. Pics2Flix Lite has a restrictive layout and is confusing to operate. The results it gives aren't worth the time it takes to figure things out, either.

This app compiles a folder of pictures into an animation. To find your photos, you have to search through your gadget's raw file menu instead of the standard gallery -- where most of your photos will be. Once you've … Read more

Overlays 1.0.8 Review

One of Android's biggest pluses over an iPhone is the flexibility you get with home screen widgets. If you're looking for more ways to change the way things look, add Overlays to your home screens. It lets you view a custom home screen from any app you're using. It's a little tough to set up at first, but it's pretty cool once you get started.

Before you get to work setting up the app, it pays to view the tutorial. The developers' site has some helpful hints that will make the app easier to use, … Read more

Baby Brain Flash Cards Series 1 - Lite 1.0.0 Review

The selection of flash cards and other education tools for infants and toddlers on the App Store is extremely large. There are thousands of apps that promise finely-tuned learning experiences for very young children, and for good reason -- the iPad and iPhone are perfect for this age group. But not all apps follow through on their promises. Baby Brain Flash Cards Series 1 manages to fall somewhere between both extremes, offering a wealth of options but a poorly-crafted interface and lack of direction that makes it hard to manage as a parent.

When you open the app you are … Read more

Bubble Blast Easter 1.0.6 Review

A common trend with mobile games is to take classic mechanics, combine them with a one-minute timer, and challenge users to get as high a score as possible. It's immediately addictive, easy to compete with others, and makes the "freemium" upgrade model easier to implement. That said, Bubble Blast Easter manages to make it work in many ways with only a handful of drawbacks to an otherwise finely-structured, free app.

The goal of Bubble Blast Easter is to shoot colored eggs at a pattern of eggs above you to match and destroy the old eggs. It's … Read more

Eagle View Photo Capture 1.0.0 Review

The camera built into the iPhone is a powerful tool, but the software it comes with is fairly limited. Point and shoot -- simple enough. So there are plenty of apps on the App Store that provide additional tools and features that make it possible to get more out of your device. For those that need to tag their images with GPS coordinates, there is Eagle View Photo Capture, a new app that makes it very easy to do so.

The app is easy enough. There are four buttons on the bottom bar when you open the app: Camera, Save … Read more
