The world of video streaming is fascinating. Ten years ago everyone was talking about how the growing number of cable channels would change traditional media. (Although it was worth it to finally get a Game Show Network.) And now, it seems like we have millions and millions of channels to get entertained. One of these […]
Hovercraft Takedown iOS Review
In the world of mobile gaming, I have controlled many vehicles. I’ve commanded cars, planes, ships, and many more cars. However, there is one vehicle in particular that I have not yet piloted. And that vehicle is a hovercraft. You see, hovercrafts are that perfect mixture between car, plane, and boat. They can go over […]
Problems With iOS 10?
Problems With iOS 10? It’s finally here and it’s sweeping the nation: iOS 10 mania! But while we’re all eager to get a shiny new version of iOS, are there some problems with it? Has it failed to live up to the hype? Are people running into issues with the new system? Am I going […]
Flick Golf Island iOS Review
I am going to finally get this off my chest: golf is very, very difficult. First off, you have to be outside. And no one in their right mind wants that. Secondly, you’ve got to dress in those nice golf clothes. Which is very difficult. Finally, you’ve got to precisely hit a very small ball […]
How To Use BitCam iOS
Camera apps are a pretty interesting subgenre on the app store. From the outside looking in, you’d think there’s no real reason to download a camera app if you’ve already got one. Well, usually I’d say excellent point. However, some camera apps have an extra gimmick that make it worth the download. And today, we’re […]
Finger Hero iOS Review
Our fingers are greatly underappreciated. They do so much for us! They help us pick up cheeseburgers, they help us scratch ourselves, and they let us spend way too much time on our smartphones. In fact, I’m typing this review using my fingers right now. (Crazy, right?) Now you must be wondering “Who are you […]
How To Use Hanx Writer iOS
How To Use Hanx Writer (iOS) The typewriter is one of those relics from the past that has managed to not only remain iconic, but gain a certain cool factor. Much like vinyl records or parachute pants, people still believe the typewriter, while very frustrating to use, to give their writing a certain flair. But […]
Super Mario Run Coming To Android After iOS
Super Mario Run Coming To Android After iOS I’ve talked a lot about Super Mario games in my time writing about mobile apps. And that’s mainly because I miss the simplicity of life when I was a kid, spending my days playing Mario and not having to worry about taxes or eating right. But […]
One Billion iPhones Have Been Sold
Apple is definitely one of those names synonymous with making money. After all, have you ever walked into the Apple Store? Not a lot of “Everything Must Go! Low Low Prices!” sales going on. But people still flock to the extremely clean glass stores and bring home handfuls of new iPhones. Or at last it’s […]
iOS 10 Is On Its Way
It can be very tough to keep up on all the different versions, updates, and software jargon of smartphones. My phone has been harassing me for the past month about the need for an update, but I simply won’t do it. Partially because I’m lazy. But partially because I don’t even really understand what the […]
Lifestage Now On iOS
Lifestage Now On iOS Ever since I got a Facebook, I’ve checked it pretty periodically. And by that I mean way too many times each day, Heck, I checked it ten times just while writing this article. But there’s a reason that Facebook defeated all others and has become the undisputed king of social media: […]
Mr.Jump iOS Review
It’s kind of surprising the amount of platformers that are available for smartphones. Don’t get me wrong, I realize it’s a very popular genre. But platformers require very precise controls to make the ideal jump and avoid pitfalls and enemies. Unfortunately, tight and precise controls are something smartphones simply aren’t built for. So it’s the […]
8Bit Baseball iOS Review
Playing baseball is one of the world’s’ most popular pastimes. Tossing the ball, hitting the ball, passing the ball, running with the ball. Other baseball things. But there is one major thing I’ve never enjoyed about the game: exercising. I wish there was a way to capture the fun of hitting a home run without […]
Pickcrafter iOS Review
Let me get something straight right off the bat, I have still not played Minecraft. I’ve seen the videos pop up on the internet, I’ve seen the shirts, and I’ve even seen my younger relatives play it. But for some reason I never got around to playing it myself. I guess it’s that busy lifestyle […]
Scribd iOS Review
These days, everybody wants to have the “Netflix” of something. You know, something where you pay a monthly subscription and get access to a large collection of something. There’s a Netflix for audiobooks. There’s a Netflix for music. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a Netflix for clothes. But wouldn’t that mean you […]
Ookujira-Giant Whale Rampage iOS Review
Whales are pretty cool animals. They’re huge, they’re mammals just like us, and they can make that one really cool noise. Surprisingly, there haven’t been many games based on whales. In fact, the only movie about whales that comes to mind is Free Willy. Well imagine that if at the end of Free Willy, the […]
Pitfall iOS Review
Time for a lesson in nostalgic video games. (Yaay!!) For those who don’t know, Pitfall! was originally released for the Atari 2600 back in the early 1980’s. It was supposed to be a platforming adventure game full of vine swinging and alligator avoidance. It was a big hit, and became known as one of the […]
Pinchworm iOS
Have you ever thought there could be too much of a good thing? Too many superhero movies? Too many types of ice cream cake? Too many sentences that begin with “too many?” Well, there definitely can be too much of a good thing. Trust me, I was out until four in the morning last night. […]
3D Robot Rampage iOS Review
A dystopian wasteland. Bullets exploding zombies. Power-ups and coins. Finally, an experience that combines all three of those things. While also liberally taking from the intellectual property of others. 3D Robot Rampage is the perfect title for this game. It’s 3D. You’re a robot. And you rampage. However, maybe it should also be called 3D […]
3D Pixel Racing iOS Review
Ahh, racing games. The constant thrill of the road captured in a small gaming package. It allows us to do what we never could in real life. We’ve all had those urges to see how fast our cars really can go. But unfortunately, society dictates that we go the speed limit. Racing games are a […]
Ninjump iOS Review
It must be difficult to be a ninja. You have to be in great shape, be specially trained, and always ready for battle. However, you do get those awesome outfits. And ninja stars. Tough choice. Anyways, let’s talk about ninjas. Ninjas are in this game. This game for iOS devices. It’s called Ninjump. That is […]
Neko Atsume iOS Review
For weeks now I’ve heard my sister rave about Neko Atsume. At the time I didn’t care too much, as I didn’t really know how to even spell the game. Then I realized I could review the game for the entertainment of my many fans. I know you’re out there somewhere, fans. For the uninitiated, […]
Marvel Comics iOS Review
Have you heard of Marvel Comics? OK, of course you’ve heard of Marvel Comics. Every other movie that comes out these days seems to be related to Marvel in one way or another. I swear I even heard they were trying to make a movie about the origins of Spider-Man’s aunt. I don’t have proof, […]
Angry Birds Go iOS Review
Another day, another Angry Birds review. If I’m not mistaken, 20% of all games available are Angry Birds in one way or another. Well this time the bird-flinging franchise has tried a new format: kart racing. I recently reviewed Poppy Kart, a surprisingly good Mario Kart ripoff. Is Angry Birds Go! for iOS as good, […]

My phone has been harassing me for the past month about the need for an update, but I simply won’t do it. Partially because I’m lazy. But partially because I don’t even really understand what the […]
The OverDrive App – A Library In Your Pocket
Have you ever seen anybody on the bus reading a paperback book? You feel like you went through a time machine by accident. You would look to check a newspaper for today’s date if we still had newspapers. Perhaps the reason some people haven’t ditched those papercut-giving former trees is because they haven’t discovered the […]
Angry Birds Epic Review
Have you ever heard of Angry Birds? It’s an obscure little mobile game that not many people have heard of. Oh you mean you’ve heard about it every day of your life for the past five years? I must have been thinking of something else. Yes, Angry Birds is everywhere. And they’ve decided that the […]
