Movies Now HD for iPhone and iPad sports a simple yet eye-catching, almost Pulse -like, interface that makes discovering movies a breeze, at least on the iPad
With Color Splash for iPad still going strong as one of the top paid apps in the Apple App Store, I recently had the opportunity to discuss the app with its creator, Hendrik Kueck, owner of Pocket Pixels Inc . Very simply, Color Splash for iPad allows users to enhance photos by making most of the photo black and white while keeping the more important content in color for more drama and emphasis. The end result is a unique photo. I have often used Color Splash to edit my photos
