Here it comes! Wait for it…yep, it’s best iPhone apps of the week! Now, you might think that’s a bit hyperbolic for what is, let’s be honest, just a column recommending six cool new iPhone apps to you. How wrong you are.
This week’s best iPhone apps has some incredible apps waiting for you to grab them. There’s augmented reality insects, the most physical iPhone game ever, a personal trainer shrunk and stuck inside your iPhone and much more. Read on and marvel at the latest wonders hitting out best iPhone apps library…
Flip It! Gyro game
£0.59 | iTunes
Making ingenious use of the iPhone’s gyroscope and accelerometer Flip It! easily hops into the Games section of our best iPhone apps library. Similar to Bop It, Flip It! makes you move the entire iPhone to complete it’s challenges while you’re hectored by a rather shirty American drill instructor. You’ll want to prove him wrong when he shouts “FAIL!”.
Live Butterflies
£0.59 | iTunes
Another app prime for inclusion in the experimental games subsection of our best iPhone apps library, Live Butterflies is a piece of augmented reality genius. Using the live feed from your iPhone camera, it superimposes butterflies onto the real world which you have to tap to catch. There’s also a relaxing viewer option which is exactly the same but without the need to catch those virtual butterflies.
Splice
£1.19 without ads | iTunes
£free with ads | iTunes
We have already elevated the iMovie iPhone app to the best iPhone apps library but it looks like it will have a new rival on the virtual shelf where the video editing apps are filed. Splice is just as fully featured as iMovie and handles transitions in a more intuitive way. It’s also available in both a paid version (no ads) and a free version (subtle ads). A definite thumbs up from us.
Findagram
£free | iTunes
If you do crosswords (go on, you can admit it) or just generally like anagrams, Findagram is a brilliant app. It slips nicely into the section of the ever-growing best iPhone apps library dedicated to wordplay iPhone apps. It’s simply a single text box where you type in a word or words and it fires out as many anagrams as it can generate. It’s ideal for cryptic crosswords and finding hilarious alternative names for friends.
DropIt
£free | iTunes
Another incredibly simple app, DropIt lets you download files from the web straight to your Dropbox account. That’s what it does and boy does it do it well.
Flowd
£free | iTunes
Flowd is another social location app…we know, we know but listen for a minute. It ecnourages you to check-in to locations but is tied up with musical taste with a growing number of artists joining the service to communicate with fans. So far the biggest names are Armin van Buuren, Markus Schultz and…shudder…The Wanted, but more indie and rock acts are sure to migrate to the app in the near future. Another good feature with Flowd is that you can use it to create a group of friends and then communicate with them via it. Handy!
