The EMS Alert app has undergone a name and icon change. They’ve partnered up with www.ice4safety.com and will be using the ICE (In Case of Emergency) icon and will now be known as “smart-ICE”. The ICE icon will make the app easy for emergency personnel to recognize. Go HERE to read my review of the [...]
Now this is the type of coloring book app that I like! There’s nothing complicated about it, exactly what you want for young kiddos. You choose a theme – bugs, jungle, farm or ocean – then you choose a picture to color. The pictures are simple without tiny, extra details. Now tap one of the [...]
Beware of this game!!!! If you put Stoneloops on your iPhone you just might find yourself unable to stop playing it. At all. If you’ve ever played Zuma on an Xbox then you’ll have a bit of déjà vu while playing Stoneloops. The two games are very similar. The idea behind Stoneloops is to shoot [...]
Looks like there’s a possibility of the iPod Touch getting camera and microphone capability. Put that together with Skype and you’ve basically got yourself a phone. Read about that HERE. Yet another reason to ditch the land line.
I read this cnet.com article today and will be downloading Triazzle onto my iPhone tonight. This app looks fantastic and like something that will appeal to both everyone in my family. Once I’ve given it a try I’ll post my thoughts. For now follow the link to learn more about the app. Triazzle on the [...]
There are some very funny jokes in the 18000 Cool Jokes app. But moms with kids that can read should be warned – there are some dirty jokes too. In fact there is a whole category of jokes called “dirty”. As I was using the app, and chuckling to myself, I was thinking it’s too [...]
Here’s a neat trick for those of you with a brand spankin’ new iPhone 3GS. If you’re tired of staring at the battery icon you can change your settings to show you the percentage of battery life you have left. Pretty Slick. Brian Tong shows you the trick here!
I found iColoring Book Lite to be confusing. My four year old uses it and seems to enjoy it well enough but when I play around with it I just don’t get it. You start by choosing a coloring page. It’s probably not saying much but I have trouble getting the pages to open up. [...]
The Barnes and Noble app is very cool. I usually check Amazon.com for book ideas then reserve them at the library. (Although if I told you how much I recently had to pay in library fines to get our cards unlocked you’d ask me why I don’t just go ahead and buy the books already. [...]
I know it’s only July but for me it’s time to start stocking up on school supplies. I think of it as part planning ahead and part looking forward to the end of summer vacation. Besides, who wants to be on that school supply aisle the first week of school searching for glue sticks and [...]
My 9 year old daughter told me about an iOS 5 feature that I was totally unaware of until last week. Miss S. showed me how to set up individual text tones for my contacts.
iOS 5 Gets Its First Update Thanks to my husband Zack for getting this post out about the new iOS 5.1 release. I’ve yet to install the update…but I’ll be following his instructions below. Shortly after the iPhone 4S hit the market a bug was discovered that severely impacted battery life on those new devices. [...]
I review iPhone apps for moms. I have a decent grasp of techy things but the technical guts (for lack of a better word) of how the apps work are beyond me. So my reviews will be practical and purely subjective. Reviews for moms by a real life, actual mom. My kids will vouch for me.
