Sometimes, an app just doesn't need to be complicated. And that's definitely the case with both Flashlight and myLite.  There's nothing fancy here--just two free apps that turn your screen into a flashlight so you don't have to go fumbling around in your purse for your keys. It can also help you unlock the door at night. Basically, both apps work ... continued »

Just yesterday I mentioned the grim outlook for a mobile version of WoW for the iPhone, and today I see this cool app. No, it's nothing official from Blizzard, however, it looks like it will be a useful tool for those wanting to know details about various characters and such. continued »

iWant is a free iPhone app that helps you find what you're looking for. Now, this could be anything from car rentals to restaurants. The GPS finds your location, then show you the nearest places to you. Granted, there are many other apps out there like this--Yelp, Nearby, urbanspoon, just to name a few. But I think iWant is interesting ... continued »

One thing that has been notably missing from the iPhone is the ability to use MMS. Sure, the SMS has a great interface, but you still can't send picture messages through it. And while you can e-mail photos to your friends, that can be cumbersome at times. But what the iPhone can't do, an iPhone app just might. Palringo is ... continued »

I recently reviewed a few recording and note-taking apps, but none have tried to be so all inclusive as YouNote. This little app lets you take note of the world around you in five different ways, which, if you ask me, is pretty impressive. Especially for a free app. You can take standard notes, first of all. Just type in ... continued »

As you probably know by now, free apps make my day. Even simple ones. So Labyrinth Lite Edition is very simple yet totally entertaining (and frustrating, in a good way!). The object of this game is to get the ball bearing across the wooden board without letting it fall into any holes. Sounds simple enough, right? But what I really ... continued »

Remember that old game where you had a triangular piece of wood with 15 holes and 14 golf tees? You had to jump each peg in such a way that only one was left. I think you can still find those on the tables of your local Cracker Barrel restaurant. Well now you can frustrate yourself with this puzzle on ... continued »

Apple have been especially strict with programmers who want to release 'beta' software to iPhone and iPod Touch users; right now, the company will reject submissions with 'beta' or 'test' style descriptions. However developers must have a way to send out beta or review copies of their apps to beta testers and reviewers. Up until now, the only ... continued »

If you are a lover of Vegas-style casino slots, then Lucky 7 Slots is the app for you. It’s only $1.99 and helps you satisfy that gambling urge from anywhere right on your iPhone. But it’s not all flashing lights and coin drops. In fact, it’s lacking these things entirely. And for a paid application, I was expecting a bit more ... continued »

I love free apps. They give you the opportunity to try out an application without any risk. I mean, the only thing you lose is a little bit of time, but that’s not even much to complain about when you get right down to it. So when I downloaded Jott, I was excited. Here’s a way to take verbal notes ... continued »

Have you been looking for a simple, easy-to-use voice recorder on the iPhone. Well, $0.99 can get you Recorder by Retronyms and it's truly just a recorder, and that's what I like about it. While I love add-on features and extras, sometimes all you want and need is a big red record button and that's precisely what Recorder gives you. ... continued »

I had big plans today. I was going to give a glowing review to Pandora, an Internet radio application for the iPhone that surpasses just about anything else like it. But this morning when I attempted to open the app, all I got was a dialog popping up that said, "Pandora cannot be opened." It looks like after a weekend ... continued »
