Start typing and ShoppyList will suggest items using its built-in library. Add a colon right after your item name to attach a quantity or note. You’re also able to add items by browsing by type or recently added. You can mark items off your list while wandering around the store with a tap. ShoppyList also allows you to create multiple lists, duplicate lists, and share them via email, Messages, or AirDrop.

Taskcode streamlines the way you record tasks and notes with its unique data input system. You’ll first have to learn the six codes for input. They’re essentially a set of special characters that allow you to enter data via lines of text instead of jumping from option to option. If you forget a code, don’t worry, there’s a quick reference guide built into the app. Taskcode also includes batch editing, sorting, auto-suggestions, a dark theme, and much more.

A Dark Room starts you off with basically zero instructions. All you have is a black screen that offers you a single choice: lighting the fire. From there you will have to dig deeper and deeper into the winding, unpredictable story. If we told you anymore it would ruin the entire experience, so just tap that download button and enjoy the hours of entertainment ahead of you.

Sago Mini Puppy Preschool is good clean fun. It will introduce your child to numbers, shape recognition, matching, and music through fun activities with adorable puppies. The four engaging activities and 10 excitable puppies provide hours of open-ended fun.

Drum Pad allows you to tinker with sound. It features 18 types of drum sounds including bass, snare, tom, cymbal, high hat, and even cowbell. Just tap to make some music. On iPhone, you can switch between two different nine-drum sets. On iPad, all 18 drums are available on a single screen.
