Fit Simply makes fitness fun. It allows you to compete with your friends via Game Center to see who can achieve the most steps over an entire week. Since it utilizes Apple’s M7 chip, it’s able to track your motion without draining your battery down to zero. This also means that Fit Simply only works on iPhone 5s or above. The achievements you earn for your dedication can be shared via Twitter, Facebook, or Messages.

Your job is to guide a little black square safely through neon mazes via magnetized points on the screen. Touch and hold your finger on the screen to activate the nearest magnet and latch onto the square, and release at just the right moment to nab the white squares and make it to the other end of the maze. The game includes a total of 80 challenging levels, and leaderboards via Game Center.
Magnetized is available for free for a limited time. It has a 3.5-star rating with a total of 223 ratings.
This is about as close to playing with real cards as you can get. The game plays a little differently depending upon what types of iDevices you have sitting around. If you only have iPhones, one will act as the host device. Everyone else will connect to it and will be able to see the community cards on their own screens along with the cards in their hand. Cards can be interacted with and peeked at with a swipe. If you have an iPad, it’s pretty much the same process except that the community cards will be shown only on the iPad and all other of the players will be able to utilize their iDevices as just their hand of cards. The game includes a handful of customization options as well.
Pokerrrr – the poker dealer is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 14 ratings.
This electrifying racing is from Remedy Entertainment, the same team that brought you the likes of Max Payne and Alan Wake. Death Rally is a high octane thrill ride that includes gorgeous graphics, a single player career mode with loads of unlockable and upgradable vehicles, two camera angle options, a ridiculous amount of weapons to unleash upon your opponents, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center. You can also take your skills online, allowing you to trade paint with your friends in fast-paced road wars.
Death Rally is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 17393 ratings.
The great thing about Eureka is that it can be used by just about anyone. It doesn’t even have to replace your current go-to productivity app. You can use it in addition to it. Basically, whenever you have something you want to remember pop into your head, launch Eureka and record it. That idea or task will then be instantly transferred to Notification Center where you can always see it. Ideas and tasks within Notification Center can be marked off as complete and even moved to the top with a right to left swipe. That’s really all there is to it.
Eureka: Quick Memo & To-Do List is available for free today only (05/20). It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 40 ratings.
