Pixntell Allows You To Tell An Audio And Visual Story [iOS, Free For A Limited Time]

There are a slew of applications on iOS that allow you to share photos with friends and loved ones. In order for me to stand up and take notice of a photo sharing app, it has to have something that makes it special. It needs to do more than simply upload photos to a social network or apply some simple filters that make a photo look rustic. I want to see an app that actually does something cool with my photos. With Pixntell, you get an app that actually brings something new to the table.

3 First-Person Shooters That Actually Have Great Stories [MUO Gaming]

First-person shooters (or FPS) have long been a genre that is based around competition. Ever since the invention of multiplayer gaming, it only made sense to have shooters as a key genre. I once wrote an article about the best multiplayer shooters here on MakeUseOf, and while I stand by my choices, I think some shooters get lost in the shuffle. Not all first person shooters are about connecting to the Internet and shooting people with your friends.

MixerBox Lets You Listen To Tons Of Music On Your iPhone [iOS, Free For A Limited Time]

There are plenty of apps that allow us to just stream music without even having to sync with iTunes. With apps like Spotify, Rdio, and the one I'm going to talk about today called MixerBox, it made it even easier to listen to music on the go. MixerBox uses the power of YouTube and Facebook to find lots of music to listen to whenever you want. Best if all, the app is normally $4.99, but you can pick it up for free for a little while.

FolderEnhancer Makes iOS Folders Better Than You Ever Imagined [Cydia, iOS]

I still remember when Apple rolled out folders in iOS. It is, without question, my favorite addition to the interface since the mobile operating system came into existence. Personally, I like to install a lot of apps, but I always hated having pages and pages of apps to scroll through, so I found myself deleting them just to keep the number of pages down. Then, folders launched, and that was not a problem for me anymore.

Use TabFinder To Find Songs To Play On The Guitar [iOS, Free For A Limited Time]

One of the coolest things ever invented for playing guitar is tabs. They make it a lot easier to learn to play famous songs by popular artists. Instead of reading music, tabs are much quicker to understand. If you are a guitar player, I am sure you have played with tabs at one point or another. Once you understand how to use tabs, you can quickly learn how to play almost anything with your guitar.

DreamBoard Makes Your iPhone Look Like You Never Thought Possible [iOS, Cydia]

If you own an iPhone, you are probably happy with the interface. Apple has done a fantastic job of making its iOS interface clean, easy to use, and functional. Personally, I think it's the best user-interface ever designed on a smartphone. The simple icon interface offers users enough control, while keeping everything streamlined in way that even the least tech-savvy users can pick up the device and figure out how to use it.

Offline Pages Pro Lets You View Websites Without Internet [iOS, Free For Limited Time]

Sometimes, you need to go places where you don't have data available on your iPhone. Whether its due to a bad cell signal or lack of a Wi-Fi connection in the area, facing a situation where there is no data is often unavoidable. For me, the worst part of this is being bored. I feel like there is nothing to do on my phone without data. Sure, I can play a game, but sometimes, that just does not cut it. Usually, I prefer to read something interesting on the Internet to kill time.

3G Unrestrictor 5 Lets You Take Control Of Your iPhone's Data [Cydia, iOS]

Some iPhone users are grandfathered into having unlimited data on their devices and the limitations of not being able to do what they want with their data is really annoying. If you are paying for unlimited data shouldn't you be able to use it to download large applications and play any game on the Internet? Personally, I think you should, even if your friendly local cell phone provider would be quick to disagree with me.
