Pocket Travel is the only traveling companion you need. It’s actually three apps in one, allowing you to quickly convert prices between currencies, calculate tips, and calculate discounts. It’s able to automatically detect what country you are in and identify the currency so you don’t have to. It also supports more than 240 countries and 150 currencies, and you’re able to utilize it offline.

Busy is fast. Real fast. Whenever a new task comes to mind, just tap on an open field in your list. You can then assign it to a category and project list. Tasks can be reordered by tapping and dragging them into place. You can also move them between project lists if necessary. Daily reminders can be set up to ensure you start your most important task.

Skullduggery! doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is what makes it so much fun. The premise is totally out there, having you play as a semi-organic autonomous skull who is a collection agent for the IRS. This skull has the special ability to utilize its brains as a flinging mechanism. It’s up to you to pull back and launch your way through each level as quickly as possible while collecting all of the loot. You’re able to play through the levels in single player mode or go head-to-head with a friend.

Unlike your golf game in real life, you’ll actually have full control over where the ball goes in Flick Golf HD. Just swipe from the bottom of the screen towards the top to smash the ball off of the tee. You can control the curve of the ball while it's in the air and put some spin on it to grab the green by swiping some more. The game includes three modes, eight courses, varying wind conditions, stat tracking, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.
