Before you do anything else, grab a pair of your favorite headphones. Without them you simply won’t get to experience all of the fantastic stereoscopic 3-D sounds Sunny has to offer. The sounds were encoded in the highest quality 256 kbps AAC, allowing for a completely engrossing audio adventure. You’re able to customize each beach scene by mixing in as much or as little rain, rain beating against a tent, music, and bird sounds as you wish. Sunny’s first beach is unlocked from the get go. The other five can be unlocked with sun rays, which are earned simply by interacting with the app and listening to the sounds on a daily basis. If you can’t wait, you can unlock all of the sounds immediately via in-app purchase.

iPad:

SCRIPTUS ($0.99 → Free, 5.3 MB): This innovative text editor allows you to quickly and easily record your thoughts. It’s suitable for people young and old who simply need a way to take notes.

Scriptus strikes a nice balance between usability and feature-rich. It brings you straight into the composition field, allowing you to quickly record text or audio notes. The toolbar at the top of the screen makes it easy to quickly search text, create bullet point lists, adjust the font size, view stats, and even speak what you’ve written. But what makes this app really stand out is its extra row of keys across the top of the keyboard. Each key has multiple keys within, requiring you to simply tap and swipe to select one of five different options. It’s truly an inspired design and remarkably easy to use. You’re able to save your notes within the app itself or upload them to Dropbox.

SCRIPTUS is available for free today only (07/26). It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 16 ratings.
