We really enjoy using Anchor Point because of its simplicity. Just tap the “Add Anchor” button to pinpoint your location, and attach a name and icon to it. The location will be stored in your personal list where you can also share it with your friends. When you want to make your way back to your anchor point, just follow the compass or view the directions on the built-in map.

The app allows you to work with all of the essential document types including PDF, Word, Excel, Text, HTML, Pages, Numbers, and images. Documents can be imported from the cloud, web, via email, and even scanned. Docs and Works features robust annotation tools including the ability to highlight text, type or write overlay remarks, and add stamps and shapes. Signatures both written and scanned can be attached to documents, and PDF forms with editable fields can be filled out.

The app can be as basic or as advanced as you want it to be thanks to its myriad of features. Tasks can include a due date, list, notes, priority, recurrence, reminders, and an unlimited number of tags. You can also organize tasks into folders, and view them in list or calendar form. The app also includes 20 themes to choose from, passcode protection, custom icon badging, and search.

Sago Mini Monsters allows your child’s creative side to shine. They get to start off by painting the face of a colorful monster. It will then grow horns, eyes, and a mouth. Just tap and drag each piece to switch it out with another. The monster can be fed with the food that floats to the top of the goo from which it came. Once the monster has had its fill it will need its teeth brushed. Other objects will also randomly float to the top of the goo, which can be applied to the monster before it gets its photo taken.
