Notability Review: An Excellent Note-Taking, PDF Annotation Tool

Let’s be honest, taking notes probably wasn’t one of the possible uses that got you most excited about getting that new iPad. It’s easy for productivity apps like Notability to become overshadowed by all the great gaming, photography, music, and entertainment apps that litter the App Store… But some of us are interested in taking [...]
iMovie for iPad Review: Great for Casual Filmmaking

Is anyone still debating about whether or not the iPad is a consumption-only device? It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about blogging, photo editing, or movie making—it seems that the App Store is now chock full of software that makes the iPad a powerful tool for accomplishing work and completing creative projects… Today’s case in [...]
iPhoto for iOS Review: A Dead Simple and Powerful way to Edit your Photos on the Go

iLife suite enthusiasts were pleased to learn that iPhoto, Apple’s photo editing application, has finally made its way to the iPad and iPhone.

Tweetbot for iPad Review: The Best Twitter App For iPad

I have been using Tweetbot as my Twitter client of choice for iPhone and iPod Touch since I first gave it a 5-star review last year.

Clear for iOS Review: Stroke of Genius- Who knew a to-do list could be so Sexy!

It usually only takes a few seconds to get a feel for an app once you launch it for the first time. For the apps that undeniably contain that “it” factor, they get moved to the front page of your iPhone for use on a regular basis—while others might be vanquished to some folder where [...]

Pimp Your Screen Review: It enables you to do just that…

If you’re at all like me, you change your iPhone’s screen about as often as you change your socks; which is to say, quite a bit. Now, I’m not exactly the most creative person when it comes to design elements and color schemes. I can’t design anything my mom would want to put up on [...]
Keynote (2011) Review: Getting Better

Back when the iWork apps released in 2010, I was fairly harsh on Keynote , which I found to be the worst of the trio, especially with its complete lack of PowerPoint support beyond basic file opening. Over the course of 2011, Apple made many improvements to the iWork apps, and it’s time for me [...]
Snapseed Review: Most powerful Photo editing app in the App Store?

If you read my last review about Instagram, you’re quite aware of how much I love the app. It’s easy to use and incredibly fun to experiment with. That being said, you are kind of limited in what you can do with your photographs (though that isn’t always a bad thing). Enter Snapseed, from the [...]
