DailyCost isn’t just easy to use, it’s also easy on the eyes. Just pull down on the receipt tape to add an expense. You can then define an amount and pick a category. The amount entered is accompanied by the category icon on the receipt to allow for quick reference. You can also swipe left and right to tear the tape and see your totals from other days. The app also includes 13 different wallpaper options.

Sit back and relax, because you’re about to take on the zen experience that is Zero Lives. The game dives right in and asks you to start collecting hearts without any instructions whatsoever. The reason is that the gameplay is so simple; there’s no need for a tutorial. All you have to do is tap the open circles to move the black dot and collect the hearts. The black dot can only travel through each circle once, however, so in order to collect all of the hearts in each level you’ll have to think ahead.

This puzzle game will really get your brain juices flowing. Numbers are scatted all around the grid. It’s up to you to slide them together to add them up to 10. You can not exceed 10, and you are required to use all of the number tiles on the board to complete each level. As you progress, other factors like blocked out grid pieces and tiles that reduce your total will be added, making it rather difficult to complete all 300 levels. Hopefully you’re up for the challenge!

Notes Pro allows you to add some structure to your note taking. Instead of just creating one big list, it allows you to store notes within specific folders. You’re able to create an unlimited number of folders, and each one can be passcode protected. The entire app can be passcode protected as well. Notes Pro seamlessly syncs with iCloud, so there’s no need to import and export your notes.

Ice Cream Truck is certified child friendly. You won’t find any outside links or in-app purchases here. Just pure entertainment. The app includes five different activities, allowing your child to drive the truck, sell ice cream, make frozen yogurt, stack scoops, and whip up cotton candy. Each activity includes loads of interaction methods, which means your child should have no problem staying busy for hours and hours.
