Scratch C@rd

Posted on 07. Mar, 2010 by Alli Flowers.

Not too long ago, I told you about iFavorites. Its developer has now released another app, that while nowhere as useful, can provide some entertainment – especially if you have children in your lives. Scratch C@rd allows you to create a personalized greeting card on your iPhone. This, in itself, is not terribly unique or unusual. [...]

Module for a Better Grip on your iPhone

Posted on 06. Mar, 2010 by Alli Flowers.

I’m a one-handed iPhone user. It took me longer than most people to get used to the iPhone’s keyboard because I want to hold it on my right hand and type only with my right thumb. I always figured that was the point of having a very small device. I don’t mind using two hands [...]

DirecTV App

Posted on 27. Feb, 2010 by Alli Flowers.

DirecTV has made it easier to find and record a tv show from your cell phone than from your television. I’m sure the original intent of this app was for those moments you find yourself away from the tv and suddenly remember you forgot to set something to record. But they’ve given us something so [...]

Zagg Custom Skin

Posted on 18. Jan, 2010 by Alli Flowers.

When I first got my iPhone back in April of ‘09, I couldn’t decide whether or not to put a screen protector on or not. I eventually decided to try it, and when someone gave me a Zagg screen protector, I eagerly installed it. I’d used Zagg skins for years on my Palm Treos and [...]

Proporta Shine

Proporta has a great lineup of accessories. Some of them are really unique, so when they offered to send me the new Shine case to review, I jumped at the chance. I don’t particularly care for leather cases. The sides typically come up impeding the swiping motion, necessary to move from page to page when using [...]

Ming Thins

Although “Ming Thins” sounds like a cross between a cookie and a space villain, they are actually a stick-on face-lift for your iPhone or iPod Touch. Not a case. Not exactly a protective cover (although each set comes with a screen protector). Allow me to show you mine, and I’ll elaborate further. Ok, so it [...]

iBookmarks

The developer of iBookmarks, Guy Gubi, was kind enough to offer me a promo code, so I’ve been giving it a test drive. I have to admit, I really don’t use my iPhone all that much for web browsing. Sites that are handheld optimized are stark, and full sites are just too…big. Nonetheless, there are sites [...]

TaKePhOnE on your iPhone

Posted on 25. Oct, 2009 by Alli Flowers.

I get very excited when I see one of my favorite developers bringing a favorite app from my Palm days to the iPhone. So I was, of course, thrilled when I got the newsletter from shsh software back in June mentioning the iPhone version of TaKePhOnE. I spoke briefly to Shimon Shnitzer, the developer, who [...]

iFavorites for iPhone

Posted on 11. Oct, 2009 by Alli Flowers.

Notice the icon in the primary slot of my dock where the phone usually goes? It has been replaced. Quite possibly permanently. There’s a good possibility that the Messages app will go shortly, and join its brother Phone somewhere around page ten of my springboard. It really didn’t take me long to make the decision, [...]

Ascendo Data Vault

Posted on 03. Oct, 2009 by Alli Flowers.

While perusing my favorite forums the other day, I noticed that Ascendo had a new version of Data Vault out for the iPhone. I had never heard of Ascendo, so I went straight to the source. I have always used programs like Data Vault, from Splash ID to eWallet, so I was anxious to compare. The [...]
