Gift Guru is a free app that helps you keep track of special occasions and who you need to buy gifts for. You can enter your own “recipients” or import them from your iPhone contact list. For a free app, Gift Guru had a surprising amount of layers to it. It seemed like as I [...]
ManGo is an app that helps you find locations for stores, restaurants, banks, etc. It’s easy to use and has a couple features that I really liked. If you touch the "Feature" button at the bottom of the screen you’ll see some ManGo picks. I don’t think you can go wrong with a list that [...]
I’m the first to admit that my sense of fashion is somewhat challenged. I’m sure that I need some serious help with my sloppy jeans and T-shirts. I keep wishing/dreading that one day Stacy and Clinton from TLC’s "What Not to Wear" will show up with hideous footage of me and the funds and coaching [...]
Last week I updated my Grocery Zen app and it appears they have fixed my biggest complaint! Now when you delete an item from the master list it stays deleted. No more reappearances. I can get rid of anchovies and clams for once and for all. For my first review on Grocery Zen click on [...]
If you are a shoe girl- Lucky is an app for you. I am not a shoe girl but I could still appreciate the cute and sassy shoes and the nifty service this app provides. You open it up and it shows you the March 2009 Shoe Guide. You can browse shoes by trend, brand [...]

The Godiva app is a mobile way to order chocolate from the online Godiva store (www.godiva.com). Chocolate shopping from your iPhone. Or as I’ve been using it, chocolate drooling/window shopping. Don’t forget to wipe off your screen. Start with the “Shop” button and choose your shopping category. Next you choose the chocolate item you’re craving [...]
When I first got my iPhone I immediately started looking at grocery apps. I was looking for something that would do the actual shopping AND pay the bill but it seems no one has perfected that concept yet. Darn. After doing some research on iTunes I decided to give Grocery Zen a try and I’ve [...]
Chalk Walk is a very unique iPad app. It has been developed to help your children improve the pincer grip they use to hold a pencil.
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.
