Fresh Apps is a brief summary of the interesting applications I’ve discovered over the past week.
April 2008, Week 1
Mac Applications
• Camouflage :: Donationware
Hide all icons from your desktop, great when you have a beautiful wallpaper you don’t want covered up
• Clarion :: Shareware ($15)
Small and simple musical pitch/interval ear training app
• iFlash :: Shareware ($15)
Make your own flash cards for studying or download other user’s flash cards
• Ziphone :: Free
There are a bunch of iPhone jailbreak utilities out there; I used Ziphone a few days ago to effortlessly jailbreak a client’s iphone; also installs installer.app!
• Personal Brain :: Free – $250
A really cool looking interface for project planning, outlining, or organizing your thoughts and ideas
iPhone Applications
• Snapture :: Donationware (on installer.app)
Camera replacement – includes burst shooting, 3x zoom, b/w & color, 5 second timer, silent mode, toggle auto rotation; and this is just version 1.0!
• Twitxr :: Free (on installer.app)
Thought I already mentioned this because it’s one of my favorites; this app lets you take a picture, type a short message, and send to your twitxr page (instant photo bloging). FYI, it’s pronounced “Twitcher.”
• Wallpaper :: Free (on installer.app)
Share your wallpaper with everyone; see and download everyone else’s wallpaper!
• Ants :: Free (on installer.app)
Stupid and mildly entertaining app that adds ants to your iphone screen; squash them, scare them, watch them walk over your apps – not sure why, but i like it!
