Why we picked this?

It happens to all of us. Over time our inboxes become a cluttered mess of terrifying text that, at some point, you know you’re going to need to handle. Flow will help you get the job done. Flow supports Gmail, iCloud, Outlook, Yahoo, 163 mail, QQ mail, and all other IMAP services. When adding multiple accounts, you’re able to determine which is your primary one. Then Flow will pipe in all of your emails as one big stream. As you scroll through them, you’ll be able to see snippets of text that can be expanded. Swipe right to left over an email to reveal additional options like forward, star, snooze, and delete.

The native Mail app just isn’t cutting it. Flow provides a more streamlined way of reading, organizing, and replying to email.

You’ve mastered your inbox. Flow introduces some concepts that just aren’t for everyone.

Devious Dungeon 2

Ravenous Games Inc.

Defeat the summoner and claim the lost treasures of the castle in Devious Dungeon 2.

Fans of action platformers like Random Heroes.

$2.99 $2.99
Why we picked this?

It’s your job to eliminate the evil creatures that have infested the halls of the dark castle. Grab your trusty sword and run, jump, and slash your way through pixelated dungeons using on-screen controls. Every enemy you take down will earn you experience points, which can be used to upgrade your character. You’ll also want to look for secret openings and collect loot to unlock new weapons and accessories. The game includes five worlds, boss battles, iCloud support, and achievements via Game Center.

You’re a fan of retro-inspired platformers. It’s just like the original, but bigger and badder.

The idea of playing a platformer without a control seems absurd to you. Devious Dungeon 2 lacks MFi support.

Visualize your tasks with Cuecard.

Why we picked this?

Cuecard focuses on visual cues instead of text. When recording a new task, simply choose from a vast library of built-in cues or create your own from a photo. You’re able to attach notes if need be, but the idea is to keep things simple. Then whenever you want to see what needs to be done, just glance at your grid of visual cues. Cues that are more important than the rest can be highlighted in red.

You find task managers to be cumbersome. Cuecard simplifies the process.

You require advanced features like subtasks and cloud syncing.
