Snapicon eLite – Share your Emotions – Free, developed by Wissr, Inc., is a new way to add emotions to your photos.

This application allows you to take any picture and add emotion to it. You can add captions, speech or thought bubbles, and also use over 400 emoticons. It is super easy to use and can be tons of fun. Just open a picture from your camera roll or quickly snap a picture to begin editing.

Once you have your photo up, just simply select the emoticon you want to use, position it where you want in the picture and save. You can use as many emoticons as you want, but this free version only has a select few to choose from.

Snapicon eLite allows you to take the app to the next level with in-app purchases that allow you to use and enjoy even more emotions. Since this is just the free version you wont have access to that many emoticons unless you purchase more.

This is a fun and easy to use application that you can quickly add creativity to any photo and share it with friends and family. With Snapicon you can share your photos using the most popular social media sites, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Flickr. You can also share your photos via your blog!

Snapicon eLite is a FREE application available on the Apple App Store. Snappify all of your photos within seconds – give every single photograph a new and different emotion!

Pic Light, developed by Make A, is said to be “The most powerful and artistic vintage camera app.” Based on that I would have to agree with them. There are a ton of photo editing apps on the Apple App Store and all of them do pretty much the same things such as pick a filter and adjust it. Pic Light goes into much more detail.

With Pic Light you can really customize your photos to make them look amazing using the built in filters, adjustments, lens flares, and light leaks.

The included filters, Vintage, Modern, Olden, and HDR, are pretty similar to the standard filters you see in all other photo editing apps.

The adjustments include: Bright/Contrast/Saturation, Exposure, Contrast, Gamma, Highlight, Sharpen, and Hue. Again you will see most of these in other photo editing apps, but not always together. Pic Light Also makes it super easy to use them. You just click on the adjustment and use the slider and keep moving it until you are satisfied with the look.

The features that set Pic Light apart from the competitiors are the lens flares and light leaks. Pic Light offers Anamorphic Flares, Natural Sunlight, and Subtle. You can also use 20 standard light leaks and 40 premium light leaks to really tweak your photos and make them look gorgeous.

Pic Light is currently priced at $1.99 and is a must have app to check out if you love photo editing.

This is a very simple and easy to play game. It features over 25 levels of fun puzzle like mazes. To control the magical wagon you just slide your finger to the direction you want to travel. You can slide either Up, Down, Left, or Right. The controls are fairly easy to use but I did notice that they were a bit difficult at times. Sometimes it would not recognize which direction I actually wanted to go. This could be a bug on the iPhone 5 though. I notice that the app has not been updated to take advantage of the iPhone 5 and I am sure the developers are working on that and will release an update soon.

With the gears that you collect you use them to unlock other levels and worlds. If for some reason you do not have enough gears to unlock the next level you can either replay the level or purchase more gears via in-app purchases.

Overall I would have to say the 3D graphics are pretty good. They just need to be updated for the iPhone 5. The music is very well done and not distracting at all. You can purchase Dungeon Wagon 3D on the Apple App Store for the very low price of FREE. It is ad supported and and some times can be a bit annoying. Since the game is free the developers need to get paid. If you are into maze games the Dungeon Wagon 3D is an app you should check out.

In this review I will go over the positives and negatives of the BabyPing Wi-Fi baby monitor and explain why it is one of the best baby monitors on the market today. First off, having a newborn baby is a major change in your life and you want to make sure everything is perfect so that you can take the absolute best care of your child. Having a baby monitor tied to your cell phone makes your life that much easier. Since almost everyone has a cellphone with them or within a few feet at all times of the day, integrating the baby monitor into the phone makes perfect sense.

Nobody likes to carry multiple devices, this is why we have seen the smartphone evolve into one of the most important devices in our lives. It has replaced PDAs, calculators, portable gaming systems, and much much more, combining them all into one device. Just as Apple says, “There is an app for that,” there really is an app to monitor your baby at all times and from anywhere in the word.

Since I do not currently have a baby at home that I needed to monitor for this review, I decided to setup the camera to watch our dogs who are basically our little babies. I opened the package which was very well designed and everything was very well organized. Inside the box you will receive: the BabyPing camera, a power adapter with US/UK/EU adapters, a monitor stand, 1m network cable, cable clips, mounting screws & feet, as well as easy to follow instructions.

If for some reason you are having a hard time with the instructions, you can always jump onto the BabyPing website and watch their tutorial videos. I am guessing most people can figure it out because setup was super easy. All you have to do is download the BabyPing application from the App Store, plug the Ethernet cable into your router, plug the power supply into the wall and camera, and then follow the onscreen instructions.

At first I was expecting the app to find the camera via Wi-Fi, but soon learned that you had to plug the Ethernet cable into your router and then it would save the Wi-Fi settings to the camera. If I would of read the instructions first I would of caught this. Overall setup took only a few minutes and the video feed was live.

Inside the app you have a few different options including a SmartFilter and Night vision. The SmartFilter, when set to on, allows you to only hear you baby crying and will filter out other loud sounds. If you set the SmartFilter to off, you will hear everything. With this feature, you can now sleep comfortably since the device will just alert when your baby has started crying.

Also within the app settings is the ability to set Night vision to Automatic, always on, or always off. Having control over the Night vision is a great feature as you may have a darker room but do not want the camera to automatically switch over to Night vision. Speaking of Night vision, this camera provides an amazing image with Night vision off as well as on. It can be completely dark in the room and it will look as though a light is still on in the room.

I do want to mention that the BabyPing app that you download from the App Store will only work on your Wi-Fi network. If you want to view the camera from anywhere in the world or share the video feed with Grandma and Grandpa, you will have to download the app BabyPing+. This will allow you to set up a secure password and you can limit the access to certain people keeping your camera secure.

Currently the applications work on all iOS devices that I have tested, but they have not been optimized for the iPhone 5. The BabyPing+ application works just fine, but seems to be a bit buggy. I am sure the developers will have an updated copy out soon, so this should not deter you from purchasing this camera.

One of the best features of the BabyPing application is that you can monitor your baby and still use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch at the same time. You can exit out of the app and it will continue to run in the background. If there are any errors with your connection or camera, you will get a push notification so you can immediately check to see what is wrong.

The only issues I had with the BabyPing Wi-Fi Baby Monitor is that you must have reliable internet access. If you have a weak wireless signal you will want to run a network cable directly from the camera to your modem/router. When using the application to watch video, you will want to be aware that there will be a slight delay due to network speed. It is a very slight delay, but something you should be aware of.

Overall the BabyPing Wi-Fi Baby monitor is an excellent choice for those who want to stay connected to their baby and not have to worry about extra devices and for those who want the ability to monitor their baby from an iOS device. It is great for parents who are at work and want to check-in to see how baby is doing with the spouse or babysitter. With the Instant Connect feature, you can keep in touch with your baby anytime you want.

BabyPing – Secure Wi-Fi Baby Monitor for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch works over 3G, 4G or WiFi is currently priced on the BabyPing website for $199.99, but you can get it onsale right now via Amazon for $179.99. This is a must have app for parents and I would highly recommend it. Once your baby is grown up and out of the crib, you can use the camera to monitor your house or find other uses for a Wi-Fi camera. It is definitely worth the investment and should be on the top of your baby registry list if you are expecting parents.

There is not a thing that can ever compare to the joy and happiness that the presence of a baby can bring to one’s life. Parents will always want to see their bundle of joy every now and then just to make sure that he or she is safe. What better way to do that than by using a Wi-Fi baby monitor.

If you are like me and hate having your slim and sexy iPhone 5 ruined by a big bulky case, then you need to check out the iPhone 5 Suede Jacket by WaterField Designs. This is the best possible case you can purchase for your iPhone 5 if you want the original feel but with a bit of protection from lint and dust.

Before I started using the iPhone 5 Suede Jacket I wont constantly use my pockets to store the iPhone 5 and noticed that I was getting lint stuck in the headphone jack or speakers. Overtime you may even start to notice the aluminum edges of the iPhone 5 start to wear. Luckily the Suede Jacket saved the day. This ultra suede material is perfect for protecting your iPhone 5 from scratches as well, especially if you have keys in the same pocket.

The iPhone 5 fits snug into the case and can be quickly slid in and out. While doing so, it will also clean the screen as well. If you have some stubborn smudges just take your Suede Jacket and wipe the screen.

When you first fit the iPhone Suede Jacket onto your iPhone 5 you will notice that it is extremely tight and may be a bit tricky to slide it in and out. Give it a few days and the fabric with stretch and fit like a glove. I truly enjoy using the Suede Jacket and using my naked iPhone 5. All I have is Ghost Armor clear protection and the Suede Jacket.

In the event that your Suede Jacket gets dirty, you can easily rise it it water and then let it drip dry. It’s better that your case gets dirty instead of your iPhone!

The iPhone Suede Jacket can be purchased at SFBags.com and is available in 3 different styles with the optional pocket.  Pricing starts off at just $10! Typically I like to get just the plain black version without the pocket, but decided to change it up this time and added the pocket. Originally I thought I would never use the pocket because that would just add more bulk that I hate. The pocket is actually really great. You can store your ear buds, money, ID, credit cards, or whatever else you can fit in the mesh pouch.

If your someone who prefers a little more style that just plain black you will want to check out their Zebra or Cheetah prints. They will cost you $2 more, but hey, you have to pay for style right? So, they would cost $12 or $16 with the pocket.

I am very careful with my iPhone, but you may have the occasional accident where you might drop the phone, luckily the Suede Jacket will offer some protection but not that much. You can also choose to get a Suede Jacket that works with the bumper case if you want a little extra protection for your device.

WaterField Designs make a ton of great cases for the iPhone, iPad, and other electronics. If you are looking for a super slim and sexy case be sure to check out the San Francisco company WaterField Designs.

Once you have decided which cities you are going to use, you can log into your Craigslist account or just browse Craigslist using the beautiful grid picture view. It will show you a picture of the item if it has one along with the price so you can quickly find what you are looking for. If you want a little more information showing you can change to list view and see a smaller picture but more details.

One of the best parts of this application is the ability to log into your Craigslist account to manage items you have currently posted or even submit new posts directly from the app. Just click on Post at the bottom, choose the category you want to post in and your set. Now just set your post title, price, and description. You can even take a picture right from the app or browse your camera roll. That is it! It is so simple to use Craigslist from your mobile device.

Smobile for Craigslist is currently priced at $2.99. It is a universal application so you can purchase it one and use it on all your devices including the iPad. If you would like to check out this app for FREE they have a free version available that is ad supported.

Original owners of the iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, and the 1st-3rd generation iPod Touch who were turned down for warranty replacement due to the little sticker inside turning a shade of pink or red. Apple owns the patent to the indicator strips but the 3M company who makes the strips indicated that humidity and not water contact could have turned some of the white stickers pink, misleading customer service representatives who examined the devices.

The settlement is set to be filed in a San Francisco federal court in the coming weeks. We will provide more details on this case as soon as we get it.

Baby Wishlist, developed by ilan lewin, is an application intended mostly for expecting mothers. It offers a checklist of baby goods, helps you find the right products, and allows you to create a wishlist or baby registry which you can share with friends and family.

To get the most out of this application you should use the iPad version, but the iPhone version works just as well. For this review I will be mainly talking about the iPad version.

When you first launch the app you will notice the easy popups that help guide you through the app. You will see a visual checklist that lets you see what each item looks like and what situations you would use it in.

Just swipe across the screen and you will see all the different rooms in your house. Tap on one of the grey shaking objects and it will tell you what it is. You can say you have one or want one.

If you say you want one it will show you a list of best sellers and top rated products. It will give you pictures and even full reviews. You can then add it to your wishlist or buy it now.

When you add it to your wishlist you will be able to change the quantity, set it private so it doesn’t show up on your public registry, and even add notes for anyone who buys it for you.

If you decide you want to turn your wishlist into a public registry that you can share with friends and family, just create a profile. Once you have your registry you can post the link to Facebook, Twitter, or email it.

Overall this is a great app for anyone expecting a baby. I am expecting a baby soon and having this app as a tool to help find out what products to register for has been very helpful. I love that I can get product suggestions and read reviews.

The first time we went to the local baby store to scan items for our registry we were completely lost and just scanning random things we had no information on. Now I can instantly find the top products and keep track of it all in this handy app.

Baby Wishlist is currently free on the Apple App Store so you should check it out now if you are expecting a little one.
