Why we picked this?

Stride and Prejudice is an endless runner based on Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Go full steam ahead as a pixel-art version of Lizzy Bennet, and tap to leap onto platforms that are made from the text of the novel. Marathon mode challenges you to see how far you can get, and you will always start from the beginning. Reader mode allows you to pick up where you left off so you can finish the entire novel.

If you want to utilize your time wisely, there’s no better way to do it than by gaming and reading at the same time. You’re also able to customize the speed of the scrolling text to ensure you can read every last word.

The gaming mechanic is relatively simple.

ParkIt is not only useful, it’s remarkably easy to use. Whenever you step out of the car, simply tap the big green “ParkIt” button to mark your location. You’re able to attach a note and a photo if you like to make it easier to spot your vehicle. If you have an Apple Watch, you don’t even need to take your iPhone out of your pocket to mark your location. Just tap your wrist. When it’s time to head back home, ParkIt will provide you with the fastest route back to your vehicle. The app also includes the ability to record parking meter expiration times.

If your frequent parking lots and utilize meters, this is the app for you. Especially if you own an Apple Watch.

Like similar apps, you’re at the mercy of your wireless connection.

Most finance apps are all cluttered up with unnecessary options and data, but not Easy Spending Expense Tracker. The app’s home screen only displays your current account balance and two buttons: Add Income and Add Expense. When adding income or an expense, you simply have to define an amount and choose a category. The amount will automatically be added to or subtracted from your total. You’re able to look back through your transaction history, and create reports from all of the data.

If you’re looking for a more convenient way to track your expenses, look no further than Easy Spending Expense Tracker. Its home screen is clutter-free, allowing you to focus on what matters most. You can, however, dig into the menu system to set up multiple accounts, reminders, and passcode lock your data.

If you’re worried about losing your expense data, avoid this one. The option to sync your data via Dropbox is an additional $0.99 in-app purchase.
