This photography app allows you to share what you see in a whole new way. You’re able to choose from five different camera lenses. The fisheye and crystal fisheye lens effects are done in real-time, so what you see is what you get. Retro filters and colorful tones can be applied as well. Once you’ve captured your masterpiece you can share it via your favorite social networks.

You’re put in control of a large circle that goes around a ring all on its own. As it goes spinning, bullets will fly out from the middle of the screen. To dodge the bullets and collect the squares, hold your finger on the screen to expand the ring and release to contract it. Running into bullets will cause damage while collecting the squares will reduce it. Try to survive for as long as possible. The game includes a handful of control options, allowing you to experiment and see what works best for you. It also includes two difficulty settings, and leaderboards via Game Center.

There are so many ways to play Flick Kick Field Goal. It offers five single player modes, including precision and time attack modes, and local and online multiplayer modes. All seven included modes simply require you to kick the ball through the uprights as accurately as possible. You’re able to do so with just a flick. Keep in mind that the direction of your flick will control the angle of the ball, which will come in handy when the wind starts to pick up.

Everyone is invited to the party in Partyrs. The only problem is, not everyone is going to get along. It’s up to you to ensure the party is successful by moving the attendees around the room to make them comfortable in their surroundings. You can see what will make each character happy or uncomfortable with a tap. Characters can be swapped with a swipe. If you swap too many times, the party will die, so think before you move.

It features a built-in web browser that allows you to hunt down content, or you can bring in your own via Instapaper, Readability, or Pocket.

The app includes the ability to change the text size, a night mode, stat tracking, and the ability to share content via Twitter, Facebook, or email.
