Why we picked this?

The main reason we’re recommending Boximize today is because of its universal appeal. All you need is some type, any type, of information that’s important to you, and Boximize will help you organize and recall it with ease. New collections of notes can be created by selecting from the 27 templates. Each template can be customized by adding or removing fields, or you can build your own from scratch. You’re able to enter up to 20 different pieces of information, including everything from date and time to sketches and voice notes. All of the information can be searched for, sorted, and protected with a passcode.

If you have an abundance of information that’s important to you, check out Boximize. It’s customizable fields make it easy to record and organize just about anything

Creating collections can be a bit time consuming, especially if you’re going to be thorough, so if you’re not fond of entering mass amounts of information on your mobile device, you’ll want to look elsewhere for your organizational needs.

There sure are a lot of system monitoring apps available in the App Store, but none compare to the visual style and ease of use of ActMonitor.

If you’re always worried about your iDevice, ActMonitor is the app to ease your troubles. You’ll never again wonder how much space you have left, what’s running in the background, and how much time you have left before your iDevice runs out of juice.

Discovr - discover music

David McKinney Pty Ltd

Discover new tunes to listen to based on what you already enjoy with Discovr. Check out Discovr today if your current album collection is looking a little stale.

FREE ($3.99) For a limited time FREE ($3.99) For a limited time

Why we picked this?

We really enjoyed getting recommendations from Discovr thanks to the unique way they’re represented. Instead of just receiving one big list, you’re able to expand an ever-growing web of recommendations by tapping on different artists. If you double-tap on an artist you can view their bio, songs, videos, and other details. Artists can be marked as favorites as well, and you’re able to listen to previews before taking the plunge.

If your taste in music is very specific, Discovr is absolutely worth your time to download. Just type your favorite artist’s name into the search field and see what’s related.

If your taste in music is broad and ever-changing, Discovr really isn’t the app for you. You need to have a specific artist or genre in mind to get the most out of Discovr.

Flash Study

Lorenzo Modolo

Study anytime, anywhere with your own set of digital flash cards with this educational app. It’s the perfect app for anyone looking to get a little studying in whenever they can.

FREE ($0.99) For a limited time FREE ($0.99) For a limited time

Why we picked this?

What makes Flash Study a great educational tool is that it’s clean and easy to use. You won’t find a ton of unnecessary features to dig through here. Just create a deck and start adding cards with questions and answers. You’re able to create as many decks and cards as necessary. Then when it’s time to study, you’ll be shown the question and the answer can be accessed with a swipe. If you were correct, you can check it off your list. If not, you can leave it unchecked and come back to it.

If you don’t have a lot of time to study, Flash Study is the app for you. It allows you to take your studying on the road and quickly access it whenever the time is right.

Flash Study is pretty bare bones, so if you need more than a deck of flash cards to flip through, this is not the app for you.
