Catch colors to recreate a sequence in Linia.

Fans of puzzle games.

FREE ($1.99) For a limited time FREE ($1.99) For a limited time
Why we picked this?

Linia’s gameplay is refreshingly unique. Your job is to recreate the color sequence at the top of the screen by tracing a line through colored shapes. The difficulty is that the shapes don’t just stand still; they’ll revolve around each other, change shape, slide behind each other, and more. It’s up to you to time your moves and catch the shapes in the right order. The game includes 80 levels.

You want something a little different from your puzzle game. It’s familiar yet unique.

You prefer competitive elements.

Why we picked this?

Planett provides simplicity in a complex world. When adding a plan or a task, you’re asked to enter a description, location, date, and time. Your item will then be placed in a scrollable list on the main screen, where you can check it off, delete it, or move it to another day with just a swipe. Across the top of the screen you’ll see your entire week at a glance. As an added bonus, you can swap out the photo within the planner to either inspire or reflect your day.

You can’t keep things straight. Planett’s week-at-a-glance is super handy as well.

You require more features like cloud syncing and subtasks.

Why we picked this?

Week Widget isn’t a standard calendar app in any way, shape, or form. It taps into your iDevice’s native calendar app in order to populate a Today view widget with everything that’s coming up on your schedule. When you launch the app itself, you’re greeted with ways to customize the look and content of the widget. Week Widget includes a day timeline, a week timeline, and the ability to scroll through days and weeks.

You’re always in a hurry. It easily handles complicated events that overlap, and assigns colors to allow for quick discovery.

You value your lock screen space.
