Manage tasks and take notes with Taskcode.

Anyone with a lot on their plate.

FREE ($0.99) For a limited time FREE ($0.99) For a limited time
Why we picked this?

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.

You’re looking for a more efficient way to manage your life.

The native reminders app is good enough for you. Taskcode will be overkill.

Levitate the subjects in your photos with Levitagram.

Anyone who wants to have a little fun with their photos.

Why we picked this?

To make it seem as if your subject is levitating, start off by taking two separate photos. The first photo should be of your subject in its environment, and the second should be the environment without your subject. Make sure to keep the camera steady between photos in order to get the best results. Levitagram will automatically align and stitch together the two photos, so all that’s left for you to do is cut out the parts you don’t want. When you’re finished creating your magical photo, you’re able to save it or share it via Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Messages, or email.

You want to share your crazy creations with the world. The app includes a bustling community that you can interact with and get inspired by.

You’re don’t like fiddling around. It takes some time to get great results.
