The App Store takes delivery of hundreds of new apps per day. The overwhelming scene makes it possible to easily overlook an exciting game, valuable productivity suite, etc. However, we have a solution. Today’s Best Apps tackles this problem by providing you with a handpicked and tested list of apps that are truly worth your consideration each and everyday.
Remember: Even though in-app purchases typically require your iTunes Store password for processing, you can further prevent them and other unauthorized actions by enabling local restrictions using the passcode locked iOS parental controls.
Foresee by BorderLeap, LLC ($1.99, 16.2 MB): Make it easier to plan your outdoor fun and exercising with this smart weather-based activity scheduling app. For example, during the summer months, you may enjoy frequently going on bicycle rides. Indeed, you can easily watch for rain or snow in the forecast, but it's tedious and precipitation isn't the only factor. Strong wind as well as high humidity and temperature are not preferred either. Foresee automatically checks these and other weather attributes, such as cloud cover and UV index, then reports how much you'd likely enjoy performing that specific activity during each hour of the day using a color saturated ring graph and a line of emoticons. The bolder the color, and smiling, the closer conditions are to being favored. In addition, there's a slide out details section that outlines how conditions compare or meet your preference. The app features an easy to read flat UI, simple two-point slider system for preference adjustments, support for monitoring multiple locations and activities, more than 70 activities available, the option to change activity identification color, sharing via Twitter or Facebook, and allows monitoring of up to three attributes per activity.
Budget оn the Go by ELITE SOLUTIONS LTD ($0.99, 7.3 MB): This simple finance tracking app allows you to very easily keep an eye on your bottom line. With it's straightforward flat UI and quick three step entry process, all it requires is a couple of seconds after a purchase, deposit, etc and you'll always know precisely where you stand, money wise, that is. As for the report, items are grouped by category, which are collapsable for better overall viewing, and time: week, month, and year. The app features color-coded expense and income sections, about a dozen pre-defined categories, custom category addition with a selection of more than 50 icons, integrated calculator available during every entry, and optional 4-digit passcode lock.
