Latest iPhone App Reviews
Hangman RSS (for the brave only ~ play with...
Hangman is a simple game—one of the first non-board strategy games that many children learn. I’ve reviewed quite a few of the hangman games available for the iPhone, some good, some not so much. By far, Hangman RSS is more clever and challenging than the half-dozen or so I’ve tested, both formally and informally.
Brothers In Arms® 2: Global Front
Gameloft continues to develop high-end games for the iPhone with titles like NOVA, Avatar, and Modern Combat: Sandstorm. Now, with the release of Brothers In Arms 2: Global Front, they add to their impressive library of graphically impressive titles. The compelling cast of characters, gritty action, and intense combat of this World War II combat simulator recall "Saving Private Ryan" rather than something you'd typically find on your mobile platform. The camera shake...
AutoStitch Panorama
I’m not a gifted photographer in any sense of the word. I just replaced an ancient 1.2-megapixel Fuji camera with a nice, shiny red Kodak Easyshare. Besides being easy for mere mortals to use, one of the features I really like about my new camera is its ability to combine multiple photos into a panorama. And that attracted me to Cloudburst Research’s $2 AutoStitch Panorama app.
My Med ID
Emergency medical personnel are trained to look for an ICE (In Case of Emergency) contact on a mobile phone if they cannot communicate with the the victim. My Med ID from Imadjine takes this concept a step further by providing more detailed medical information. Still, there are some downsides to the app you should be aware before relying on My Med ID.
Alice In Wonderland – An Adventure Beyond...
Inspired by the recently released film from Disney and director Tim Burton, Alice in Wonderland is a remarkably clever 2-D adventure game that is more than a mere movie tie-in.
Cyclemeter GPS Cycling Computer for Road &...
At one point in the very near past, if you wanted to track your speed and distance over a bike ride or run, calculate your calories burned, listen to music, share exercise data with friends, and view your route afterward, you’d need a cyclometer, a calculator, an iPod, an e-mail program, and, of course, a map. Today, however, all of these functions have been rolled into one device, the iPhone, thanks to great fitness tracking applications like Runmeter and Cyclemeter...
Runmeter GPS Running Stopwatch / Sports Watch
At one point in the very near past, if you wanted to track your speed and distance over a bike ride or run, calculate your calories burned, listen to music, share exercise data with friends, and view your route afterward, you’d need a cyclometer, a calculator, an iPod, an e-mail program, and, of course, a map.

Tiki Golf 3D
The 3.0 version of Tiki Golf 3D from Arb Studios is just as fun and imaginative as the mini golf game’s original incarnation. Sadly, though, the new edition requires ample bug fixes before it’s up to par.
NOBY NOBY BOY
There are two kinds of people in this world: Those who understand and enjoy the appeal of Noby Noby Boy for iPhone, and those who are entirely sane. I’m in the latter camp. Developed by Namco—who really should know better—Noby Noby Boy is less of a “game,” and more of an art project. That being said, I wouldn't bet on seeing this at the Museum of Modern Art anytime soon.
Audubon Birds - A Field Guide to North...
The National Audubon Society’s iPhone Audubon Guides offer access to four major reference tools—Birds, Trees, Wildflowers, and Mammals—as well as several smaller, regionally-based guides to birds and flowers. All of these guides are based on the AudubonGuides.com Website and the user interface is exactly the same for each app. Data in the apps is the same as what’s offered for free on the Web.
