We really like this app because it makes it easy to discover and relieve pain using trigger points even if you know nothing about skeletal muscles. You’re able to hunt down specific muscles or simply point to areas of pain to discover what’s causing it and how to fix it. The app includes over 80 muscles with more than 150 trigger points, so you will be able to relieve everything from tennis elbow to abdominal pain.

Runtastic Mountain Bike Pro’s real-time data is second to none. You won’t find a more accurate ride tracking app in the App Store. It’s able to record your trip, duration, distance, altitude, and calories burned.

The app even includes weather data, Pebble support, voice detection, and automatic pause detection.

Taijitu is inspired by the mythology of yin and yang. The screen is divided into two sections by a white line with shapes on each side. The shapes that are pulsing are the ones that can be swapped with a tap. The idea is to balance the two sides by ensuring the colors are equally distributed. The game includes more than 100 levels that become progressively more complicated.

Week Widget isn’t a standard calendar app in any way, shape, or form. It taps into your iDevice’s native calendar app in order to populate a Today view widget with everything that’s coming up on your schedule. When you launch the app itself, you’re greeted with ways to customize the look and content of the widget. Week Widget includes a day timeline, a week timeline, and the ability to scroll through days and weeks.
