ESRB Rating

   The ESRB Rating app comes straight from the ESRB – Entertainment Software Rating Board. This is the group that puts the ratings on video games and computer software. They are the ones who decide whether a game is rated E or M. And there is a big difference between those two ratings. I found [...]

 

Picky Eater

  The name of this app, Picky Eater, is deceptive. It’s not about dealing with a finicky two year old who won’t eat anything orange. Here the picky in Picky Eater refers to watching what you eat because of food allergies. The app provides allergen information for over 100 different types of food and nearly [...]

 

WeetWoo!

   WeetWoo showcases children’s videos from YouTube and it is one of the best kid apps that I have seen. The combination of YouTube and my kids makes me extremely uncomfortable.  The potential for them to stumble upon serious filth is too great for me to give them complete access to it but there’s no [...]

BabySitter Connect

A little while ago I reviewed the app Baby Connect. It was an app that really impressed me and I think it could be extremely helpful for mom’s who work outside the home.

ICE4me (In Case of Emergency)

ICE4me was created by the maker of smartICE 4 Family and smart-ICE. The only real difference between ICE4me and the original EMS Alert app, which turned into smart-ICE, is the pink color. This is an app that stores all of your key personal information, medical information, emergency contacts, etc. Everything that you’d want someone to [...]

The Merck Manual: Home Edition

I put the Merck Manual: Home Edition on my iPhone and as I was reading through it I began to wonder why my iPhone didn’t suddenly weigh fifty pounds! This app has soooooo much information in it that I just envision the book version being of a very impressive size. I’m constantly using Google for [...]

What I Do

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.
