By Leanna Lofte, Saturday, Sep 17, 2011 | Every week a few of us from team TiPb will bring you our current favorite, most fun and useful App Store apps, WebApps, jailbreak apps, even the occasional accessory, web site, or desktop app if the mood strikes us. As long as they’re iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch related, they’re fair game. To see what we picked, and to tell us your pick, follow on after the break! I love Amazon. I visit the site multiple times a day, whether to order things for my home or the office, or just to browse and do some product research. I’m also an Amazon Prime member, which only fuels my compulsion even more, allowing for free 2-day shipping of almost anything. As a fully-grown child with instant gratification issues when it comes to purchases, Prime can’t be beat. But mostly, I like being able to Read More

WorkSmart Labs already makes some of the most successful health and fitness apps for the Android platform, with a total of 7 million users gained over three years.

WorkSmart Labs, which makes some of the most-loved Android fitness and wellness apps, is appearing on iOS for the first time with the launch today of its app Calorific Lite. Calorific Lite tries to improve users’ diets without calorie counting, taking pictures of or weighing food, typing in portions, or really doing anything that requires a lot of effort. Rather, each time a user eats, they log food into red, yellow and green categories, based on its approximate healthiness. That may seem a little odd, but WorkSmart thinks the point is to make logging as simple as possible so people stick with it. WorkSmart also makes some nifty activity logging apps, but to date they have been Android-only. In total, the company has more than seven million users. WorkSmart recently announced it had raised seed funding from Kleiner Perkins’ iFund, and now it is further disclosing that the total amount of the Read More
