The developers behind Math Fractions: Introduction manage to take the same winning formula they've used in other math-based games and apply it effectively to the development and execution of a game world and quiz structure that is fun and educational for all levels of learners.

When your child first starts using Math Fractions: Introduction, they are prompted to create a character, name that character, and give them clothing. They are then dropped into a typical child's room that they can explore by tapping around. While the resulting interface is a bit messy and hard to navigate, the effect … Read more

The purpose of Math Fractions: Multiplication & Division is to make the process of learning fractions as fun as possible for children who have been weaned on video games and electronic devices for the last decade. The app as a whole does a fine job of turning learning into an engaging game and ensuring there are apt rewards in place for a job well done.

The app is designed to thoroughly involve a young child in the process of learning fractions. It does this by first asking them to create an avatar and dress them for integration into this game … Read more

In the case of Math Fractions: Proper, Improper & Mixed, we found an app well suited to many age groups and types of learners, whether preparing for a test in fractions or just learning what they are. The result is a sometimes uneven, but ultimately entertaining app that is perfect for learning these early math concepts.

Math Fractions is built for kids from the start. The interface is a child's room, complete with toys and gadgets and an avatar that your child can dress and use to maneuver the room. While it is a static screen and the interface … Read more

NeroKwik attempts to solve the problem of your images being spread across too many devices and networks, and for the most part it succeeds. Creating a single, easy-to-navigate interface for all of your photos across your iOS devices, Facebook, and Google+, NeroKwik works well, but not without some issues.

NeroKwik is designed to make it easy to access all of your photos on one device. It does this by adding every photo on each device you install the app on to an online account. You can also connect Facebook and Google+ to the same accounts so you can easily view … Read more

Math Puzzles for Kids Lite is an app with many good ideas but some major issues in terms of execution that can make it both boring and frustrating for the children who would benefit most from it. With performance issues related to the touch interface and limited gameplay options, it needs some upgrades before it can offer a truly engaging math experience.

Math Puzzles for Kids Lite comes with 36 puzzles including addition and subtraction, comparison problems, and logical thinking. The puzzles are all designed for early elementary and preschool-age children (as they learn math concepts), and the execution of … Read more

K9 Web Protection Browser attempts to fill the gap in Safari's access filters by providing a secondary browsing experience for children, combined with adjustment of some security settings. The built-in protection settings on an iPhone or iPad are fairly decent but are in some ways limited, especially for younger children. The Web browser in particular allows open access to the Internet if not filtered in some way. This is what K9 Web Protection Browser strives to fix.

The K9 browser looks identical to the Safari browser built into the iOS design, and while there are certainly some limitations as … Read more

Black & White Master takes one of the most frustrating components of photo editing on the iPhone and makes it as intuitive and easy to do as possible, using swipe and touch gestures built into the app's interface. It is not the best photo editing app on the App Store, but certainly a very fun one to use.

Black & White Master performs exactly as it sounds, allowing you to turn your photos into black & white images (or take new ones in black & white). When you open the app, you will select or take an image, and … Read more

Snap'd Us is a perfect tool for anyone that wants to take advantage of the surge in visual memes and share more images with their friends and family. It is easy to use, customizable, and doesn't try to do too much. Combined with a basic interface, it is a well constructed app for captioning photos.

Snap'd Us is not a feature-rich app, but what it does, it does well. Open the app and you can quickly take a photo with the "Camera" button. After taking a photo, it will automatically assign a caption to the … Read more

StashPixFree automatically recognizes faces on the screen and adds a mustache to them, even as the camera is moving. Such a concept could make for a fun app, but unfortunately StashPixFree never builds on this basic idea and the result is ultimately forgettable.

The app does nothing else, the interface is very limited, and the ads are intrusive, but the delivery of the primary draw in this app is well done. It effectively displays and tags each image with a classic curlicue mustache as you take the photos. Of course, being a one-trick app has its limitations. You cannot edit … Read more
