Why we picked this?

Kiwake ensures that you will get out of bed in the morning thanks to its three step wakeup process. Start off by creating your alarms for the week. You can create multiple alarms if necessary and have them repeat as often as you like. Kiwake then requires you to pick an object that’s away from your bed and take a picture of it, choose from a handful of mini-games, and create some goals for the day or add a motivational message. When the alarm sounds, you’ll have to return to that object and snap a picture, successfully complete all of the mini-games, and read your goals or message before you can disable it.

If you’re always tempted by that snooze button, check out Kiwake today. It doesn’t even have one.

Kiwake is great for building a strong morning routine, but if you already have one, you can probably skip it.

Juggle: Pocket Machine

This juggling machine fits right into your pocket.

It will help you work on your hand-eye coordination wherever you go.

Why we picked this?

The game features three modes, all of which require you to keep the colored disks in the air by bouncing them off your laser bumper. Disks are constantly being added to the mix, so try to keep as many on the screen as possible to earn bonus points. The game also includes a fantastic retro-inspired look, and leaderboards via Game Center.

If you enjoy games like Pinball and Arkanoid, Juggle is for you. It takes seconds to go from pure boredom to juggling fun.

The paddle may feel a little laggy to some, and with no way to adjust the sensitivity, what you see is what you get.

Orderly Check Lists

Tekton Technologies (P) Ltd.

Keep your life in order with this gesture-driven productivity app.

Orderly is for AppsGoneFree users who want a more fluid way to manage their tasks.

$1.99 $1.99
Why we picked this?

Orderly is all about prioritizing tasks to ensure you complete the most important ones on time. When creating a task list you’re able to title the group and add as many items as necessary. The menu bar icons at the top allow you to quickly change the background color, text, and font to make the list stand out. A priority level, reminder, and proximity reminder can be attached as well. All of your task lists will appear as little notes on the app’s home screen presented in order of importance.

If Apple’s native Reminders app feels too limited and clunky for you, check out Orderly. It was designed to streamline your task management instead of making it more difficult.

Orderly utilizes a bookshelf paradigm, meaning if you have a lot of lists it will feel rather cluttered.
