Smart Alarm Clock monitors your sleep phases to determine exactly when your body is ready to wake up. Just set a time range for when you want to wake up, pick a track to fall asleep to, and then place your iDevice next to you. The next morning you’ll be able to review your stats and listen to your recording to discover any disturbances. The app includes more than 150 downloadable melodies, six sleep tracking modes, and cloud backup.

Your GPS may tell you how to get to your destination, but iExit will tell you all about the stops along the way. As you approach each exit, iExit will display the businesses, amenities, rest stops, hotels, and more within the area. You’re able to view the data in list or map form. Want to plan ahead? No problem. iExit allows you to search the next 100 exits for your favorite businesses.

Snap Markup allows you to grab a photo from the web, your library, or your camera roll. You’re then able to mark it up using a wide variety of tools including shapes, arrows, numbers, curves, and text. Snap Markup also allows you to draw freely with a wide variety of colors, blur and focus on sections of your photo, and crop photos.

You're able to choose from six canvas sizes before starting on your work of pixel art. You can then import an image from your library to use as an outline, or you can just go freehand. The app also includes a color picker, a thumbnail preview of your work, undo and redo, and the ability to share your creations via Facebook, Twitter, or email.

After selecting a collection of photos from your library or camera roll, you're able to frame them in different ways, apply filters, and add custom speech bubbles and stickers. You can then share your final creation via email, Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr. The app includes three canvas sizes to choose from, five background colors, more than 100 stickers to choose from, and nine speech bubbles with a whole bunch of font, color, size, and border options.
