Are you in school studying for your MBA and still searching for that perfect study aid to help you with completely your degree? If that fits your description then you may find Pocket MBA Full Course (Part 1) an app would reading about.

This app is developed by Intersog and is similar to taking a course at your own pace. It is really nice, clean, in depth, and does a great job of offering something for different learning styles.

First of all you’ll notice when you launch the app that it has a great interface to it. It defaults to the main menu, which lists out the different courses that you can choose from, with a brief summary of each one. From here you will pick the subject you are interested in studying and proceed to Launch that course.

Once you choose and go into a course you’ll see it’s even broken down into chapters. After that it goes into pre-course expectations, which I think is great, so you will know what to expect to learn from each chapter. In addition, if you look along the bottom you’ll see that they offer the chapter in modes to read the text, study through flash cards, and even to take an exam.

A few things worth noting about this app ..

1. You can bookmark your progress or just any sections you would like to refer back to.

2. You can search for topics throughout the app through a handy search button.

3. There’s a handy glossary (specific to the application) so you can look up new words quickly and easily as you encounter them).

4. The app is quick, smooth, really clean, and just overall very nicely laid out. You can tell the developer put a lot of time into fine tuning this application.

Mobile Words ($0.99)

Version 1.0

mobile words iphone app review 1 Mobile Words iPhone App Review

Love word games? Looking for something quick and fun? If so be sure to read about this app!

Developed by Mobeso the concept behind this app is simple .. letters are scrolling across the screen and your goal is to make words as letters appear on the screen. Let’s look ..

mobile words iphone app review 4 Mobile Words iPhone App Review

There are three rows of letters, and the rows alternate directions in which they travel off the screen. As you scan through the letters, when you find a word simply click on the series of letters that form the word and then tap on the checkmark icon. After that the letters will clear from the bottom and then you can start forming the next word. The goal is to see how many words that you can make within a 60 second time period.

One you are done it will show you some stats, such as your score, the rate at which you formed words, and so on. This gives you motivation in order to try and keep beating your previous scores.

Simple enough?

While the concept is simple, it is actually a pretty fun game to play. Plus you only play round in 60 seconds so this is really good when you don’t have a lot of time to spare. If you’re interested in this game, it’s currently selling in the App Store for $0.99 so head over there and pick up your copy today!

Shut Da Mouth iPhone App Review

Sys-Cake – Shut Da Mouth ($2.99)

Version 1.0

Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iphone app review 1 Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iPhone App Review

Looking for a DJ type music app? If so then you may be interested to read about Sys-Cake – Shut Da Mouth. This app comes pre loaded with some bass tracks and gives you the ability to mix in your own touches to make it your own.

This app was developed by MindPol and comes with 5 different tracks that you can build onto. There are many different modes within this app so let’s take a look ..

Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iphone app review 2 Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iPhone App Review

The first row of icons are more informational icons, giving you information and background on the developers. The second row starts getting into more of the DJ abilities. Since the app doesn’t have a help menu or tutorial associated with it I’ll have to interpret the way some of these icons act for me.

The DJ Play icon appears to be where you pick a song and then it just plays a pre-mixed song made by the developers. When you go into Game Play, you will pick a song to start with and then you will start adding in different mixes as you choose to. Ghost is where you would save a song, if during the Game Play you end up with something that you really liked.

Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iphone app review 4 Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iPhone App Review

The banner icon appears to be a flashlight type that scrolls Shut Da Mouth across it. Twitter send you to their twitter profile. Finally the Mingame icon takes you into a minigame (obviously) where the goal is to match up icons that have three of the same one on the screen.

Ok .. my favorite part of this app was the minigame although there is no way of returning to the Main Menu without closing the app and reopening it.

The only other part of this app, to me, was the Game Play icon. Without directions I had no idea what to do at first, or even how to exit out of it. Once I started it up I had no idea what half the icons along the bottom were for, so I definitely think that this app needs a nice tutorial in it for the different section. In the middle of the Game Play screen (as you can see from below) there are a bunch of buttons for different sound effects, which you can turn on and off while a song is playing. Another note if that without digging in to the app a bit I would have had no idea how to save a song to the “Ghost” section.

Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iphone app review 3 Sys Cake Shut Da Mouth iPhone App Review

Anyway, the app seems interesting although I think that it needs a bit more content to warrant the current price it is asking in the app store. Right now it only includes 5 songs so you could use this to play around with but you couldn’t use it extensively. Also, once you create songs and load them into your Ghost slots you can’t really do anything with them except replay them. I would think it would be a great addition to make these songs exportable to an mp3 format (if Apple would allow such a thing) so they could be used in a real DJ setting. Right now it seems like a DJ toy that is limited and not transferable to anything someone could use in real life (unless you can DJ a party with your iPhone).

While I think it needs more content and possibly a lower price, if you are interested in this application you can head over to the App Store and pick up your copy today.

Spuzzle - Ask Social Questions - iPhone App Review

spuzzle icon Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

Spuzzle – Social Questions (FREE)

Version 1.2
Review – “An interactive way to update your friends. Social Questions!”

App developer: Spuzzle Inc
Website: http://www.Spuzzle.com/


spuzzle 1 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

A new way to send your updates to your friends, Spuzzle combines the fun of a puzzle into twitter and Facebook to create a sort of Trivia for your friends to solve.

We’ve all gotten used to reading our friends ‘Status Updates’ or Tweets, but now you can add the fun of quizzing your friends. Instead of just telling everyone what you’re doing, where you are, or how you’re feeling you can create a Social Question – send it out and have your friends guess the answer. Interactive Social Updates!


spuzzle 2 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

Step 1: Create your Question. This could obviously be done without Spuzzle “Guess where I am?” but is more fun when you can completely customize. While you could create any Question you want (under 100 characters), you can also choose from one of the preset questions included.


spuzzle 3 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

Next Step: Include Hints. Here you can add word clues, or picture clues. Include photos already saved on your iPhone, or take a new one.


spuzzle 4 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

Step 3 is to send out your Spuzzle. You can notify your friends that you have a new Spuzzle via Email, Facebook and Twitter. You’ll send out your status update for your friends to go to your ‘Spuzzle’ (which will be on Spuzzle.com to answer.


spuzzle 5 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

While you will need a Spuzzle account (Free) to create and send your Social Questions, also, if you post via Twitter or Facebook your friends will also need to provide Spuzzle with their email addresses in order to answer the question.


spuzzle 6 200x300 Spuzzle Ask Social Questions iPhone App Review

I think this is a fantastic concept. While obviously I could just tweet/update a photo and question, this integrates great within my phone, and is a pretty fun alternate to a twitter client. Having to go through all of the extra registration is a bit of a chore, but only needs to be done once.

Luckily, the App is totally free. So you can test it out, and see if you’ll like the extra interactiveness of sending out Spuzzles instead of regular status updates. Go ahead and grab it from the link below!

Version 1.1

MakeMy Music iPhone App Review 1 MakeMyMusic iPhone App Review

Not happy with the ipod functionality on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch? Looking for a funner and more customizable way to set up your daily listening? Well you may really enjoy MakeMyMusic then!

Developed by Tekton Technologies this app is slick. It looks slicks and it’s a new way to play your music from your iPhone or Apple Device. Let’s take a look ..

When you first open the app it goes to your music to choose a song to start. Hitting the ‘i’ button in the lower right hand corner goes in to a bunch of tweaks you can make to enhance your playback experience. That brings up the Music Options, where you can set which songs play when, the look and behavior of your app, display settings, and much more.

MakeMy Music iPhone App Review 3 MakeMyMusic iPhone App Review

First let’s look at the “My Music” button. By opening this you can actually go into your song list and define which songs you’d like to hear during different parts of the day. So, if you’d like mellow music while sitting in your office, you can set that up while keeping the fun and energetic tracks for later in the day when you need a little pep in your step.

From here let’s look at the “Time of Day” option. This is where you define the app’s different times of day .. i.e. morning, noon, evening, and night. These of course work with the customize tracks that you just set in the “My Music” options.

Going into the General and Display options let you define the user experience, from the background image, to shuffling options, slideshows, and so on.

Ok .. so you’ve set up your music for the different times of day, you’ve tweaked your settings, and now it’s ready to go. Now when you open the app, it determines what time of day it is, then goes into your music listing and retrieves the songs you’ve designated for that time slot. It not only does this but it presents it on a very rich and user – definable screen.

MakeMy Music iPhone App Review 4 MakeMyMusic iPhone App Review

In addition there are some really nice controls built into this app as well. For instance, to change a song you can either set it to act on the shake to shuffle feature or you can simply flick the screen to the next track. Want to change the volume? Just drag your finger up or down the screen and it’s easy as that! Want to change your place within a track? Grab the spinning ball in the middle of the screen and reposition it. There are all kinds of really nice tweaks built into this.

All in all for $0.99 this is a pretty slick app that really bumps your music playing experience up a few notches. If you use your iPhone or Apple Device for music as well I’d suggest heading over to the app store and grabbing a copy of this today. You will be really pleased!

Toogo – iPhone App Review

Toogo – iPhone App Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

Toogo iPhone App Review

Toogo

Version 1.1

Toogo iPhone App Review 1 Toogo iPhone App Review

I have looked through many (many!) to do lists on the App Store, trying to find a one size fits all app for what I need. I don’t have a problem making my todo list .. I have a problem remembering to pull my list up when I’m near my errands!

Guess what .. there’s now an app for that! Enters Toogo. ..

Developed by Benjamin Nelson, this app is simple and straightforward, but super handy when it comes to reminding you of your daily errands. In a nutshell this app gives you the ability to create location – based to dos .. and then reminds you of your errands when you are near them. Sounds great, doesn’t it?

When you first open the application it defaults to the map screen, which looks similar to an application like Google Maps.

Toogo iPhone App Review 2 Toogo iPhone App Review

At the top you’ll see Settings, where you can change the map view and even enable the multi-tasking option for the application (when applicable on your device). At the bottom left you’ll see an icon that you will press to find your location (again on applicable devices). In the middle you can toggle between a Map View of your to dos, or a List View. At the bottom right hand side you’ll see the ‘+’ button, which is how you add a new location.

Toogo iPhone App Review 3 Toogo iPhone App Review

By default your map is empty aside from your current location marking. Pressing the ‘+’ button will take you to the screen where you can add new to do. It asks you for a Name (which will show up on either the list or the map), Location, and a location radius to which you should be notified (either 1/2, 1, 2, 5, or 10 miles).

By clicking the Location button it will default to your current location (if known), however you can either type in an address at the top or you can simply drag the little pin to the location you want it to be at.

(***NOTE .. this part appears to only work when multi-tasking is ENABLED on an iPhone that supports it***)  Now comes the fun part. After giving your to do a name, location, and notification radius it is added to your list. When you are driving along and move within your specified radius a popup will appear and remind you of your errand. How handy is that?!?!

My only concern with this app is that it may be battery draining, since it appears to leave the GPS option on your phone active the entire time, through multi-tasking. However I have not used it long enough to confirm or deny this… but I can note a swifter decrease in battery usage and my phone, when not is use, feels warmer than it did before using this app.

If you have a device that can fully support the ability of this app I’d suggest heading over to the App Store now and grabbing your copy at the bargain price of $0.99. While I am thinking it may use a little more battery than your phone sitting idle it may be a minimal tradeoff to how handy this app can be for your every day errands.

If you’re interested in checking out a demo video, made by the developer, head on over to his website.

Enjoy!

Toogo
