Little Secrets Manager can be used to store just about anything you want. You’ll first want to create a master password, or you can simply utilize Touch ID. You’re then able to enter notes, passwords, contact information, and sensitive financial information. Have photos or videos you want to keep locked away from friends and family? You can import them as well. All of the information and media added to Little Secrets Manager is safely stored on the device behind a wall of encryption.

Cognition Game puts you inside the mind of a troubled inventor. Guide Click and Cogsworth through the whimsical levels and recover pieces of the inventor’s memory in order to bring him back to reality. Click and Cogsworth rotate around each other, and every tap you make attaches the other to the surface. This allows you to spin your way through the 45 handcrafted levels. The game also includes hidden neurons that unlock stickers for iMessage, five original soundtracks, and the ability to share your journeys.

Minimize is pure casual gaming bliss. The object of the game is to match the colored blocks by changing gravity until none remain. All of the blocks will move in unison, and if any one block gets left behind, you’ll have to start all over. The game includes 140 handcrafted levels, a gorgeous minimalist design, and online leaderboards via Game Center.

Drop Flip is back and better than ever. Like the original, Drop Flip Seasons requires you to get a single white ball into the bucket below by moving, flipping, and generally manipulating obstacles of all kinds of shapes and sizes. But don’t let the minimalist visuals fool you. The levels range from quite easy to maddeningly impossible.

The iOrnament Crafter allows you to experiment with geometric patterns. It includes more than 130 sample ornaments to choose from, or you can import your own creations from iOrnament via in-app purchase. Once you have a pattern selected, you can create 3-D models, kinematic kaleidocycles, spirals, circle limit pictures, animated GIFs, videos that loop endlessly, and more. Your creations can be shared digitally, or you can choose to create paper cut models that can be assembled by hand.
