Went Free on

Ride your war turtle into battle and wipe out the evil goblins in Shellrazer. We also have a do-everything photography app, and an app that can turn your photos into living planets.

BreatheSync

Breathe Sync Ltd

Get your breathing and heart back in sync with this health app. It monitors your heartbeat in order to help you find out how stressed you are. It’s the ideal app for anyone looking to reduce stress.

Why we picked this?

With Breathe Sync, it only takes three minutes each day to feel more centered and become more relaxed. Just place your finger over your iDevice’s camera and LED and start the timer. Try to follow along with the icon and relax your mind and body. After the time is up, you’ll receive a WQ score, which will help you determine how stressed out you are. The higher the score, the better. You’re able to track your progress to find out what’s working and what’s not. Breathe sync also includes a daily reminder.

If you’re always stressed out, Breathe Sync will help you find out why and remedy the problem. The relaxing background music will help clear your mind while getting your body back in sync.

If you don’t have an iDevice equipped with a camera and LED flash, Breathe Sync is completely useless for you, so just skip it.

Truefilm

Marvin Lee

This photography app provides you with the tools to set your creativity free. Truefilm is a do-everything photography app intended for just about everyone.

$2.99 $2.99
Why we picked this?

Even though it’s loaded with a huge set of tools, creating something truly amazing with Truefilm is fantastically easy. It allows you to make minor adjustments to the color, vibrance, brightness, and saturation of your photos via sliders. You can then go big and completely change the look of your photos using loads of different brushes, filters, frames, shapes, and patches. The best part is, every time you select a tool for the first time, Truefilm will quickly explain the most effective way to use it. A history view is also available, allowing you to jump back to any point in time.

If you’re looking to make some big changes to your photos, Truefilm will help you accomplish just that. The only problem is that your friends on Instagram and Facebook will be asking you how you were able to create such awesome works of art. Point them to Truefilm.

You could pass up on Truefilm if you already have a similar app installed, but you might want to take a look at it anyway. There are few apps that can compare. It’s actually hard not to recommend this app to everyone interested in photography.

Shellrazer

Shellrazer

Slick Entertainment Inc.

Ride your war turtle to victory in this side-scrolling shooter. Your massive war turtle charges ahead all on his own, but it’s up to you to man the mounted weapons to take out the goblins. Shellrazer is for gamers that are tired of the same old shooter experience.

$2.99 $2.99
Why we picked this?

Almost everything about Shellrazer is ridiculously over the top, including it’s visuals, gameplay, and soundtrack, which is why you absolutely must check it out today. You’re able to charge into battle on a giant turtle and fire upon your enemies just by sliding your finger around the screen. The loot that is dropped from the fallen goblins can be used to recruit new fighters and upgrade their abilities. Your war turtle also has some pretty incredible powers itself, which can be unleashed by feeding him chow. The game is loaded with more than 75 levels and 50 enemies to battle.

If you’re tired of the same old side-scrolling shooter formula, Shellrazer will help you break out of that funk. The crazy cartoon graphics will keep your eyes attached to the screen, and the gameplay will keep you coming back for more.

Shellrazer can be a bit of a grind, especially if you choose to play it on a higher difficulty setting. If you’re looking for more of a breezy side-scroller, this isn’t it. It will consume you.

Pure Pinball

Legendo Entertainment

Prepare yourself for a Pure Pinball experience with the epic T-Rex Savage table. This arcade game was designed for any and every pinball fanatic.

$2.99 $2.99
Why we picked this?

Everyone loves Pinball, and this table is so pure it’s epic. It’s loaded with jackpots, special rewards, combo shots, and even a crazy multi-ball mode. The built-in manual allows you to quickly see exactly where you need to aim your steel ball and how to control the table so you can jump right in.

If you’re a fan of pinball, whether it’s digital or physical, Pure Pinball is a great addition to your collection. The controls are super easy to get the hang of, and you can choose to play for mere moments or sink some time in by playing on the big screen via AirPlay.

Pure Pinball is just one table, so if you’re looking for a more fleshed out experience, this isn’t it. It also doesn’t allow you to download additional tables through in-app purchase like other apps. What you see is what you get.

Living Planet

Samer Azzam

Create tiny planets from your photos or videos with this entertaining photography app. It’s for anyone looking to do something more than add a few filters and effects to their photos.

$1.99 $1.99
Why we picked this?

We love how easy Living Planet makes it to take your photos and videos from boring to extraordinary. You’re able to import content from your library or capture a new photo or video from within the app. Living Planet will then automatically transform your chosen content into a tiny, circular planet. An inverted wormhole options is also available.

If you want your photos and videos to stand out, Living Planet will help you accomplish just that. Seriously, what’s cooler than turning your scenery photos and videos into a Living Planet? Nothing. The answer to that is nothing.

Living Planet is kind of a one-trick pony, so if circular photos and videos aren’t your thing, you have no reason to download it.

Remember To Buy!

Evandro Muller

This practical grocery list app will help you fly right through the store. It’s for anyone looking to keep things simple and avoid complicated menu systems.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

Our favorite thing about Remember To Buy is its streamlined entry system. All you have to do is type out the name of the product you want to buy and add a quantity. Then tap the “Add Item” button and move on to the next. You won’t be brought out of the entry system unless you want to be, allowing you to quickly add multiple items. Items in your list can be highlighted with different colors with a left to right swipe, and you can mark them off your list with a tap. A progress bar at the top will indicate how much of your list you have left to take care of. Your lists can also be edited and shared.

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to put together grocery lists, Remember To Buy should be on your download list today.

Some grocery list apps have a built-in database of items, but not Remember To Buy. If you would like the convenience of auto-filling your grocery list with items from a database, this won’t be able to handle the job for you.
