Crank it up to 11 with this digital turntable app.

Vinyl Tap is for music lovers that want an extra level of interaction.

Why we picked this?

Vinyl Tap allows you to enjoy your favorite tunes just as you used to. You’ll have to decide on one of the seven different table styles, each with seven vinyl colors to choose from. Then select an artist or album from your library and hit play to start spinning your vinyl. The needle must be dragged to a point on top of the vinyl for your turntable to start playing music. The position of the needle will determine the point in the song.

If you miss the days of vinyl, you’ll want to check out Vinyl Tap. It may not be the most practical app, but it’s a lot of fun to spin your records.

If you need precision from your music player, skip Vinyl Tap. Since it’s trying to be authentic, it’s nearly impossible to pick the right spot on the vinyl to select a song.

Why we picked this?

Who says conversion apps need to be ugly and dull? Convertizo breaks the mold by offering an icon-based interface that’s not only easy on the eyes but also easy to use. All of its conversion categories are laid out on a single screen. Just tap on the one you want, choose your two units, and enter a value. Units can be flipped with a tap, and you’re able to jump to the next category via a button in the lower right corner of the screen. The app also includes eight themes to choose from, and live currency updates.

If you like stylish apps, no matter what category they fall under, you’ll truly appreciate Convertizo.

If you don’t need to convert units all that often, stick with Siri. This will just clutter up your home screen.

Can’t decide on just one photo to share? How does 100 sound instead? Fliptastic Pro allows you to gather up to 100 photos, which can be pulled from Instagram, your photo library, or your camera roll. There’s no need to limit yourself. Tap on a photo to add different filters and captions to help it stand out from the rest. You can finish up your slideshow by adding cool animated transitions and some background music. Your slideshows can be shared on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube. Additional transitions and effects are available via in-app purchase.

If you want to share a lot, Fliptastic Pro will help you do it the right way. The best part is, you won’t need to jump in and out of apps in order to create your slideshow since Fliptastic Pro has all of the editing features, effects, and transitions you’ll ever need.

If you despise in-app purchases within photography apps, you’ll want to skip Fliptastic Pro. It basically teases you with new content on every screen.

Plan, monitor, and track your projects with this business app.

It’s ideal for architects, contractors, and even home owners that are constantly juggling projects.

Why we picked this?

Project Reno provides you with complete control over all aspects of your projects. You're able to attach contacts to your projects, provide details, outlines costs, update statuses, and define start and due dates. Photos and geo-location information can be attached as well to provide more context. The projects in your main box can be filtered out by status, number, name, or contact to keep things tidy and help you stay focused.

If you’re a business owner, you’re going to want to at least give Project Reno a try. It does a great job in helping you keep all of your projects in order, and helps you stay focused on the task at hand.

If you need to monitor specific tasks within projects, Project Reno falls a bit short. It’s more for general project management.
