The days of the cigarette smoker are almost numbered. This generation will more than likely be the last where it's a natural thing t buy a packet of smokes after school given the massive worldwide anti smoking campaigns, rising prices, restrictions on where you can smoke and packets that feature grotesque pictures of dying patients. That's all very well for the youngsters who won't take up smoking up in the first place (and good on them) but what about the long term addicted smoker? They need all the help they can get to kick the habit. KwitHD is a health and fitness app for iOS that ... More

Choose a character, dress them up, play musical instruments and get them to dance just by tapping on them. This multi award winning ... More

Somehow, up until now, the concept of fishermen and a social network didn't quite sit right with me.

While games like Sudoku have totally revolutionized numerical brain training there really hasn't been anything take off in the same way when it comes to word games.

So it's very pleasant to find a game like Anagrams HD - iBrain being released for iOS. For the uninitiated, anagrams are those tricky little word puzzles where you ... More

It's often said that critics are simply failed performers who got out of the bed the wrong way before they saw the film, played the game or visited the restaurant but that's not really fair. There are some great reviewers around these days with a pure passion for the things they love - but they are getting few and far between. Personally, I have a rule that I never review anything that I don't like, whether it is an app, a movie or a piece of music. But, with everybody seemingly having an opinion about everything these days, it seems the most reliable form of reviewing might well be by ... More
