Editor’s note: This guest post is written by Alex Ahlund, the former CEO and founder of AppVee and AndroidApps, which were acquired by mobile application directory Appolicious. About this time last year, he gave us his picks of the best iPhone apps of 2009 up until then, so we thought we’d make it an annual tradition. I’ve been involved in the iPhone app industry since it first began in 2008 and I have to say that it has come a long way. I’ve seen it grow from a meager launch of 500 applications in the App Store to currently over 225,000. In only two years, the industry has matured at hyperspeed. It spawned an entire ecosystem to support it from a multitude of news and editorial resources to developer engines, promotional services and ancillary niches. With over five billion app downloads and a billion dollars at stake, it’s no surprise that Read More

Das in iPhone-Kreisen mittlerweile hinlänglich bekannte Entwicklerstudio ‘Tap Tap Tap‘, welches sein Portfolio-Regal mit Apps wie Digg (kostenlos; App Store-Link), Voices (1,59 €; App Store-Link) oder Convert (0.79 €; App Store-Link) schmückt, schraubte für die kanadische Fotografin Lisa Bettany eine Fotografie-Anwendung. Camera+ (2.39 €; App Store-Link) dürfte mit dem iPhone 4 und seiner veredelten Knipse noch einmal wertvoller werden, spielt jedoch schon jetzt kräftig mit den Software-Muskeln. Aus der App heraus lassen sich Schnappschüsse abfeuern, die gegenüber dem mitgelieferten Standard-Programm von Apple mit einer Gitternetz-Ansicht, einem Stabilisator und einem (digitalen) 5fach-Zoom die Foto-Erstellung erleichtert. Richtig spannend wird es jedoch erst, wenn die Fotos auf den Leuchttisch geworfen werden. Hier lassen sich Bilder mit Effekten versehen, unterschiedliche Lichtverhältnisse simulieren oder die Abzüge in digitale Fotorahmen stecken. Sehr dunklen Aufnahmen gaukelt man mit Geschick einen digitalen Blitz-Effekt vor. Wer nur einen gewissen Ausschnitt der Momentaufnahme verwenden möchte, stutzt sich die Abbildung entsprechend zurecht. Read More

by A couple of weeks ago, Digg (finally) launched its official iPhone application to much fanfare. Like all first versions, however, it suffered from a couple of glitches, some of which have been addressed in a recent 1.1.0 update. The list of improvements and fixes is as follows: The ability to comment from the applications is, unfortunately, still missing, but the Digg dev team promises to include it in the app “very soon.” You can get the app here [iTunes link].

Digg has finally decided to release an iPhone app and after looking into it, it is definitely sure to please. The site is still on the rise in popularity and has brought interesting articles, pictures, and videos to many users of the web. Now, it is easier than ever to keep up with the latest and greatest by downloading the Digg iPhone app. This app is pretty straight forward in terms of design and navigation. The app allows users to sign in via their personal Digg account and they will immediately be able to browse the latest news. The app presents all the top stories for each category with the number of Diggs and other information at a glance. Tapping on a story will immediately link to the original site where the content was found and the bottom bar will update to allow users to digg or bury the story along Read More

We kick off our "Friday Five" feature and take a look at five interesting new apps and games from the past week! The App Store is a busy place, and every week brings a slew of new apps. Keeping up with all the new releases is almost impossible at this point. To that end, we’re going to be starting a weekly round-up of five new apps that have caught our interest for one reason or another. Hopefully, you’ll be interested in each member of the “Friday Five,” too. Please note that this list is not at all exhaustive, so feel free to chime in with your own suggestions! We Rule by ngmoco There was no way that We Rule wasn’t going to make this list. ngmoco is the powerhouse behind popular games ranging from Rolando to Eliminate, and like most of their recent games, this one is freemium. We Rule is Read More

Browsing the App Store this weekend?  Here are ten new or updated apps worth taking a closer look at if you are: The application is free, but as it contains well-known music, you’ll have to use in-app purchasing to play further levels.  Likwid calls itself an interactive puzzle game, where you guide streams around the screen to unlock the music. Issue 0 of a new iPhone comic, centered around the stars of WWE wrestling.  From the screenshots, Tom Nguyen’s artwork looks really fantastic.  It’s free for now, but we expect future issues to have a price tag attached. If you use MacJournal on your computer, then you’ll probably have been waiting for this app to come along.  It’s going to set you back $4.99, but you will have access to the popular blogging sites and syncing with the desktop version. Digitally sign important documents without having to print them out and Read More

by On Wednesday, Digg finally launched its iPhone app, and within about 24 hours, it’s shot to the top of the app store’s “news” category in many countries around the world, including the US (where Mashable’s app [iTunes link] currently sits at #16). Now that the app’s live [iTunes link], there are a few notable features to mention that we didn’t know about when we obtained some exclusive screenshots earlier in the week. In addition to the ability to browse, search, and Digg/bury stories, there’s also options to save stories for later viewing, an in-app browser, and a “preview” feature for each story. Digg provides a full demo of the app in the video below: In a blog post, Digg says that users can also expect an Android application soon, plus updates to its apps across mobile platforms as it rolls out the features of the new Digg.

By Jason Fanguy on March 25th, 2010 Finally! Digg's free, native iPhone app hits the app store! After years of waiting, Digg.com’s much anticipated native iPhone application is now available in the app store: And it’s FREE. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Digg, it’s a user-driven news/information site that features online content from well-known, popular sites, to obscure blogs, posted and voted on by its users (users “digg” stories they like, thus determining the “value” of the site’s content). As a result, only the most popular content (stories with the most “diggs”) makes it to Digg’s front page. Click HERE for more info on Digg.com. Speculation regarding the app turned to fervor, when Kevin Rose, Digg’s founder, mentioned it in an October 2009 interview (Slippsies!): After downloading the app, I was relieved to find it a very good port of what Digg.com offers. It doesn’t offer everything the Read More

Digg released its official iPhone app this morning, and after playing with it for a little while, I can tell you that it does what it says on the box: it will let you browse, interact, and comment on the popular news aggregator without many problems (there was one major issue -- I'll mention it in a second). However, in general, the app isn't all that different from the interface they released a while back. Sure, there are a few app-y touches, but mostly the app just feels like a Digg-specific browser. I suppose that's what they were going for. The app works pretty easily -- you can dive in and view the top, recent, or upcoming stories in any of Digg's categories, and clicking on each headline sends you to an in-app browser with the page displayed (as best it can be -- of course Flash movies don't work, and Read More
