First, this is an interesting iOS prototype app, definitely expensive but has some nice touches. A way better option is to do some prototypes on quartz composer. [demo] [tutorial].

Second, can we all plz quit instagram? ill give you some options: [dmesh for that DT branded look] ||[glitche for that i haven’t slept thanks to finals look]

Third, how you share documents and links? i use CloudApp and this on my Phone.

FInally, most of you guys have iOS developer accounts, get some VLC glory  // also i like this idea of getting apps that are not accepted by apple without jailbreak.

Monday app

“Finally the overly attached girlfriend has her app”

Couple me!

This is an interesting and creepy app at the same time. I think the video in the main page could have shown a different scenario. If the app shows a long distance relationship interacting with it I find it more interesting. I’m not a person of stereotypes but the app only appeals to me for a needy relationship where I need to be constantly in contact with my girlfriend. How about missing your significant other; that is also a very important part of the relationship. Needless to say, it looks like a clustered of different features that other apps have. I think the concept and the pitch could have been better and really hit the right scenario.

Monday Play

Moves for iPhone is a simple app that tells you how many steps you take in a day.  I love this app for it’s passive activity:  it just sits in my pocket and records the number of steps I take, in the morning it tells me how many steps I took the previous day.  The design is simple and elegant and the content easy to read.  I never really kept track of my steps before but now that I have this app I find myself excited to see how many steps I took and secretly hoping I beat my record.  The only problem I have with the app is that sometimes it tells me I cycled even though I didn’t, not sure why this is.  Either way lovely and easy to use app!
