Why we picked this?

Wi-Fi Widget is one of those apps you never knew you needed. You’ll first want to launch the app and store your Wi-Fi password since it can’t access it on its own. Then make sure to add the widget to your lock screen. Any time you want to see what Wi-Fi connection you’re on, how fast it’s operating, or share its password, simply access your lock screen. Tapping on the widget can bring you straight into Wi-Fi Settings on your iDevice as well.

You are frequently jumping from Wi-Fi connection to Wi-Fi connection or have visitors at your home who you want to share your connection with.

You don’t want to share your Wi-Fi password with anyone, ever.

Why we picked this?

It’s not often that you get to play as an evil overlord, so make sure to relish this opportunity. In Cursed Treasure 2, it’s up to you to defend your gems from the likes of knights, druids, ninjas, and all the other greedy heroes that consider themselves “Warriors of Light” by erecting towers and casting spells. Towers can evolve from three basic types as the evil in you grows stronger, and you’re able to master 30 different skills. The game also includes 21 levels, and a night mode where the darkness works against you.

You enjoy classic fixed-path tower defense gameplay.

You’re easily frustrated. The later levels require high amounts of skill or you’re going to have to spend some money.
