Upon first launch, Hour Journal will ask you a few questions about yourself and your daily activities to help streamline the process in the future. You must then record the time spent on your activities at least once each day. After enough data is collected, you’ll be able to see the average amount of time spent on each activity and where you can allocate more time. The app includes the ability to edit and create activities, daily reminders, and goals to achieve. Hour Journal is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 8 ratings. Just take a photo of what you want to capture and allow SmartScan Express to automatically detect the edges. You’re also able to manually adjust the selection if need be. You’re then able to adjust the contrast and color of your scan, and rotate it. Scans are automatically saved to the in-app library. They can also be shared as JPEGs, PDFs, or PNGs via email, or you can upload them to Facebook, Twitter, or your favorite cloud service.

Aruku, the island chief, needs your help getting the tribes and creatures of the island to live in harmony once again.

Universal:
When the game begins, the center square will fill up with a random color. You must tap outside of the square to change the background color and get it to match. When you have found a match, tap the center square again to earn points. Try to string together matches to earn multipliers. If you don’t choose the right color, you’ll lose points. The game also includes leaderboards via Game Center. Taptocolor Fun is available for free for a limited time. It has a 5-star rating with a total of 17 ratings. Take a stroll through the town of Smallbridge and enter different buildings to challenge the locals to games of Ricochet. The basic idea is to place your launcher in the best possible position and fire your token across the table to collect the stars and end up in the capture zone. You want to do all of this in as few shots as possible to earn a perfect rating. Each Ricochet table offers a different challenge, like destructible walls, punching gloves, and gravity bending buttons, so you better be up for the task. The game includes 72 levels, more than 50 tokens to unlock, and achievements via Game Center. Gentlemen...Ricochet! is available for free for a limited time. It has a 5-star rating with a total of 10 ratings.
iPad:
Place your finger over the top of a ball to grab hold of it. You’re able to adjust the size of the ball and its weight by performing common pinch gestures. Then fling it with a swipe and watch how it interacts with the other balls. The app features advanced physics, elastic collisions, vectors, and the ability to adjust the amount of balls on the screen at once. BounceBounce is available for free for a limited time. It has a 3.5-star rating with a total of 10 ratings. You must first import songs from your library so Turnplay can turn them into virtual vinyl records. You can then shuffle or set them up in the queue, play them back at different speeds, and even scratch away to create your own sound. And, just like a real turntable, you can drag the arm to anywhere on the record to start playing music from that spot. The app includes two playback speeds, pitch control, and album art.
