Got a new piece of tech over the holidays? Looking for some great apps?
Here are some of our favorites.
The Onion
Show in App Store (Free)
The Onion has your back when you're left wishing that satire such as The Daily Show & The Colbert Report had more than 4 shows a week. Also, the production value on all of their stuff is astounding.
Golf Channel
Show in App Store (Free)
A dedicated golfer with a smartphone and/or tablet has to have an app for staying up to date.
Iowa Hawkeye Sports
Show in App Store (Free)
There's plenty of Hawkeye fans out there, and this app is there when you need it.
Snapseed
Show in App Store ($4.99)
Obviously, desktop photo editing software can't simply be copied over to a mobile device. Snapseed brings all of the functionality that one might need for touching-up photos in a touch-friendly app.
Instapaper
Show in App Store ($4.99)
Instapaper is the best service for saving articles & videos for later. Their editorial picks are an added benefit.
True Food
Show in App Store (Free)
There is a lot going on with the food we all eat that goes unnoticed. You might wonder how it's produced, whether or not it's modified, and other important aspects. True Food serves as a helpful guide as well as a way to take action & shape legislation regarding the safety & nutritional value of our food.
SpellTower
Show in App Store ($1.99)
SpellTower a supremely polished and enjoyable game. It's as if Boggle were mashed up with a falling block game. Also, it works perfectly on tablets & phones.
Yelp
Show in App Store (Free)
Yelp is nothing new, but hasn't gotten any less essential as time goes on.
YouSendIt
Show in App Store (Free)
File storage & sharing is totally essential, and this app has become essential for those that use YouSendIt.
Key Ring Reward Cards
Show in App Store (Free)
Loyalty/membership cards & coupons can be great. The thing is, we're carrying around an all-in-one device in our pockets. Why not have Key Ring take care of that for you?
Simplenote
Show in App Store (Free)
I take a lot of notes, and I want them to be no more complex than simple text-based notes that save previous versions, can be managed quickly & easily, and most importantly... are available & up-to-date across all of my devices within seconds (literally).
