AR Synth Music will help you put on a show. First, grab a crisp dollar bill from your wallet and place it on a hard surface. Then hold or place your iPhone about eight inches away from the dollar bill in landscape orientation. You’ll see virtual buttons appear all over the dollar bill. Simply tap and slide to play. The app has seven programmed sounds, a synthesizer, and eight keys.

Beams of light are constantly moving about the screen. You're able to interact with them by tapping and dragging your fingers all over the place. You can switch between the five modes and toggle other options on and off in real-time to see how they affect the pattern. The app includes TV-out support, multi-touch support, and the ability to save your favorite patterns to your photo library.

Santa’s reindeer are refusing to fly, so now it’s up to a boy named Palti and his overnight delivery service to save Christmas. You’ll see numbers indicating how many gifts are needed for each balcony. Just tap to launch gifts towards them. Direct hits on birds will cost you points, and you don’t want to waste any gifts since you have a limited supply. The game also includes an endless mode, and a variety of delivery vehicles to unlock.

Blox 3D Junior’s intuitive control scheme allows anyone to create. They start off with a single block, and they can build from there by tapping and pulling to create new blocks. Make sure your child creates their base and moves upwards first, otherwise it can be difficult to navigate the blocks. The blocks can be rotated with a swipe and zoomed in on with a pinch. Double-tap to delete any blocks that have been created. Your child’s creations can be played out within the app or saved to the photo library. There are four pre-built modes included for inspiration.
