120 BPM iPhone App Review – Music, Sweet Music

Tuesday, November 9th, 2010

In the same way that a games fanatic can’t take their games console with them when they leave the house, a musician can’t take their entire studio with them either, hence the popularity of music apps for the iPhone.  It’s surprising that a mobile phone can be used to create music that doesn’t sound terrible,

neu.Draw: Finger-friendly Vector Drawing Awaits

Tuesday, November 9th, 2010

Those who want a more complex drawing experience should give neu.Draw a try. This is not just another app for doodling or making casual pictures. From the same developers that brought us neu.Notes , this iPad app is designed for those who want to create vector drawings with a high level of precision. The controls are designed to be finger-friendly, though it won’t hurt to check out the available hints and tutorial to become familiar with all everything that neu.Draw can do. For example, those who are used to using two fingers to rotate an object in Pages or other apps will instead have to re-train themselves to do this differently. Rotating and other manipulations of graphics are done through tapping one of the many symbols that surrounds each of the objects or photos.

My3D Turns Your iPhone into a View-Master

Tuesday, November 9th, 2010

The 3D ‘revolution’ continues with the apparent revival of another technology that has been around for years, the stereoscopic image viewing binoculars or, if you’re of a certain age; the View-Master.  If you’ve never heard of the View-Master, it was a popular toy during the 80s – but had been around for years before that

Use iLIVEx for Remote Access to X Applications With iPad

Monday, November 8th, 2010

The iLIVEx app for iPad and connected suite of solutions is a good, low-cost way to network a small business or organization. StarNet Communications has come up with a straightforward method for those who want to use an iPad to stay connected to a remote desktop. Use the iLIVEx app to connect to and display a Windows, Macintosh or Linux desktop or to work on an individual X11 application. In comparison to most of the App Store, iLIVEx is at the BMW price level: the two versions are $14.99 and $24.99. For personal use these are the only costs you would incur as each copy of iLIVEx includes a free account on a StarNet Linux server to host applications such as FireFox and OpenOffice. However, there are additional costs associated with establishing a network through the parent company.

Find Your Voice with Voice Changer

Monday, November 8th, 2010

Interested in a voice changing application for your iPhone? Voice Changer by Hurryforward Ltd. is a plausible option for just .99. Featuring 18 different sound effects including helium, robot, megaphone, and reverse, Voice Changer utilizes a basic recording function and then lets users apply any of the different sound settings to the recording. Voice Changer also features the ability to edit sounds by adjusting pitch, rate, tempo and gain, as well as apply and adjust echo and chorus effects. Sound effects applied to the recordings can be saved and shared by email as a sound file or ringtone. Beyond this meager bit of entertainment that might be amusing to a point, it is pretty difficult to figure out any other uses for Voice Changer as creating a voice mail message or using it with the phone function appears unlikely.

Thump Football Puts Your Predictions to the Test

Friday, November 5th, 2010

Thump Football is a true original, so it requires more explanation than your typical iPhone app. Let’s start with what it isn’t: Thump Football isn’t fantasy football, and it isn’t a football video game. It is, however, a fun way to follow a game with friends, online or in real life, and a great way to introduce a spirit of friendly competition to the typically passive experience of watching a game. Here’s how it works: During any NFL or NCAA game that’s playing live on television, use Thump Football to predict what your team will do next. Choose between options like Run, 1st Down, Sack, etc. For every move that you correctly predict, you earn points. Thump Football knows the likelihood of each play, so the player will earn more points for daring, improbable predictions that come true. If you’re playing with friends, then the player with the most points at the end of the game wins. If you’re playing alone your score will be rated against other players online.(…) Read the rest of Thump Football Puts Your Predictions to the Test AppCraver.com, 2010. | Thump Football Puts Your Predictions to the Test | Best iPhone Apps | Best Free Apps
