Apps That
Went Free on
2017-09-03

As the name implies, Universe of Movies and TV showcases the embodiment of the film industry, or most of what you'd be interested in seeing anyway. In fact, the app not only presents to you what movies are upcoming and which are currently being displayed in theaters, it showcases which movies, television series, and even actors are the most popular as well as which are the highest rated. Of course, looking beyond that, there's billed cast and crew, trailers, stills, video clips, genre categorization, plus budget and revenue numbers.

Blink’s minimal and clean design will help you get things done faster. Tap on an open space on the page and type what you want to record. The item will then be added to the top of the page. Tap on any item to give it one of two colors, which can indicate priority or whatever else you wish. Double-tap to archive items. Tap and hold to bring up additional options like editing, sharing, and the ability to move items to the top of the list.

Pixel Boat Rush requires you to not only race but also destroy your opponents. Touch the right side of the screen to accelerate across the choppy waters. It’s in your best interest to stay close to the water, but you will need to utilize waves to clear obstacles. The left side of the screen is devoted to your weapons and defenses, which can be upgraded along the way. The game includes 15 tracks, 116 events, 64 unlockable and customizable boats, and MFi controller support.

Watch the waves roll in as you look out over the ocean. Their rhythmic, light rumble and sloshing almost hypnotic enough. Then, accompanying this natural sound, a beautiful, serene symphonic and vocal melody rushes onward as well. Your troubles washed away, so to speak. From here, you can choose to have landscape or portrait view, switch to any one of the 10 included musical tracks, set a sleep timer to have the music fade as you slip into sleep, or even set an alarm and awaken to the soothing sounds.
