So, this time around, we have a new chat app from Google — who would've thought — an interesting privacy solution from BlackBerry, a fun new way to share videos with friends in Uptime, Cyanide and Happiness smileys, and much, much more!
New for iOS
New apps for iPhone and iPad
1. Uptime
Download
Uptime is an app that lets you share videos with your friends. Yeah, yeah, nothing new, but the twist here is that you can interact and chat with your buddies in an overlay window, which displays over the live video. Eh? Eh?
2. BritBox
Download
This app claims to have "the biggest streaming collection of British TV… ever". Dare we argue? You can check it out for free for a week, then it's a $7 monthly subscription.
3. PABLO.
Download
Pablo lets you make "Light paintings". In other words, it keeps the camera's shutter set to really, really slow and exposure to really low. Then, you need to hold the phone steady and have moving lightsources in front of it – like cars on a highway, fireworks, or just you waving a flashlight in front of it. The result is a picture with light trails and patterns just smeared over.
4. Hangouts Meet
Download
What do you do when you already have a bajillion chat apps out? Make video-conferencing apps! Hangouts Meet is a split-off from the Hangouts platform, dedicated to bussiness. It's a part of the G Suite and syncs with your Google Camendar and Gmail seamlessly to set up meetings. It supports up to 30 participants, all with HD video.
5. Skoove
Download
Skoove is an advance piano-teaching app. It'll teach you to play your first melody at first use and will then proceed to feed you 250 interactive lessons. The app will listen to your playing and keep track of your progress, and will also feed you information about proper playing technique throughout your adventure.
Subscription is a bit on the expensive side, but you could say that piano lessons are much more expensive. It starts from $13.95 per month and goes down to $6.95 per month if you pay for a full year in advance ($83.99).
6. LayR
Download
LayR is for the iOS musicians – a multi-timbral synth that can delivers up to 256 different voices. It has a crazy amount of presets to get you started, but is certainly not limited to them.
7. Complete
Download
An elaborate to-do list, which syncs with Amazon Alexa, Apple's Today widget, Facebook, and Contacts. Lets you bring in other people on your tasks, gives you timely reminders for things you need to do, warns you about weather changes and birthday, and has an "auto-complete" button for simpler tasks.
8. Cyanide and Happiness Emoji
Download
Love C&H comics? You can now create your own avatar, styled after the famous baldies. The app is full of emoji, which you can copy and paste into your chats.
