Why we picked this?

The Grid is your schedule at a glance. It provides event text right on the calendar itself, and you’re able to see your entire day at the bottom of the screen. A bar across the top of the calendar allows you to filter out other distracting portions of your life and focus on only what you want. When creating new events, you’re able to attach all kinds of useful information or you can create a template and use it over and over. Rescheduling an event is as easy as dragging and dropping it into a new location. The Grid also includes natural language entry, time zone support, search, and the ability to share events.

Your schedule has become overwhelming and you need more from your calendar app.

The native app is cutting it for you.

Why we picked this?

Essence helps you focus on relaxing by keeping things as simple as possible. The moment you launch the app you’ll see a blue circle begin to expand, telling you to inhale. Then hold your breath and exhale on cue. You’ll also hear guitar strings being strummed in the background as the circles go in and out of existence, indicating when you should be breathing in, holding your breath, and exhaling.

All you need is a way to calm down.

You need more. Essence is void of customization options and additional features of any kind. No timers, no additional background sounds, no varied themes.

Why we picked this?

Open Bar will provide you with instant gratification. The moment you launch the app you’ll begin to appreciate its slick design and animations. The basic idea of the game is to drag and drop bars onto the board in order to create completed lines of the same color. The bars can be rotated with a tap, and merged when crossed over one another. Each puzzle can be completed in three moves or less, and you’re able to use a hint at any time in case you get stuck.

You’re into indie puzzle games.

You prefer competitive elements. It doesn’t get more relaxing than this.

Superimpose X has all of the tools to help create out-of-this-world images. Load up a background image, a foreground image, and then mask out the unwanted portions of the foreground image. You can smooth edges, move, scale, resize, rotate, and adjust other parameters of the foreground image and even add addition ones. Superimpose includes a wide variety of filters and non-destructive effects to use as the finishing touch for your creations.

You have photos that belong together.

You don’t have a lot of time to waste. Even though it’s easy to use, Superimpose X still requires some patience.
