Ever find yourself staring at the stars, wishing there was someone to help identify the constellations? SkyView Free is an augmented reality (AR) app that functions as the perfect stargazing companion. What makes SkyView different from other skywatching apps, is its AR functionality. This makes it a lot easier to find what you are looking for, since its 3D interface matches up to what you see on your screen via your device’s camera. Tap on objects to read more and even follow the paths of both the sun and moon around the globe.

 

 

 Color Effects

 

The latest version (5) of Apple’s iOS mobile operating system might enable you to crop, rotate and enhance photos, but as can be expected a number of enhancements are still missing. Color Effects is the app to get if you want to add a bit of selective colouring (making one object stand out from a monochrome background) to your pics. And you don’t need a course in Photoshop to do so - only a few swipes of your finger. Users are able to import photos from the photo library or directly from Facebook, but we should say that sometimes we wished we had a stylus.

 

 

 

Spider Monkeys are commonly referred to as the trapeze artists of the jungle, swinging gracefully from branch to branch. On your iPhone/ iPad it might be a more clumsy affair, as you try to get this rubbery armed primate from tree to tree and into his hut. In the process you need to also collect bananas (of course) and stars, all while trying your best to contend with bees, and the ground. The game features four differently themed worlds ranging from the Jungle through to the City, offering a whopping 32 stages to emulate Tarzan’s daring swinging feats through.

 

 

 

Having trouble making letters out on-screen? Simply activate the zoom functionality of your iPhone by going to “Settings” > “General” > “Accessibility” > “Zoom”, to magnify whatever being displayed on the screen. To zoom you just need to double tap with three fingers and then drag three fingers across the display to move around the screen.
