Jetpack Impossible - iOS (iPhone) & Android - Collect Green Gems, While Dodging Asteroids

We've all seen countless Flappy Bird clones, enough for a lifetime... If you're looking for similar games in terms of the controls and difficulty - here's a new one for you to try:

Jetpack Impossible By Nitako LTD. Is a new challenging game with a similar playing style, but no darn pipes or birds!

As you may have guessed from the title, you're on a jetpack, one that will need you to tap/hold on either the left of right direction of the screen to stay afloat. The mission is simple - collect the green gems, while dodging the asteroids.

Just like the title says, the game can feel impossible! It can be very tricky to control the jetpack, and just like Flappy Bird, don't count on getting a very high score. But at least in this game, you'll probably last a bit longer before seeing that game over screen.

Jetpack Impossible is a great fun and challenging game. Download it if you love jetpacks, space and impossible games like Flappy Bird.


Jetpack Impossible is FREE to download and is available for iOS (designed for iPhone) and Android devices.

Could The iPhone 6 Be As Thin As The Current iPod Touch? - Comparison Video

Video: Unbox Therapy (YouTube)

Latest rumors and leaks about the next iPhone (presumably called the iPhone 6, or maybe the iPhone Air) all point to a larger screen, most likely 4.7 inches. But even more interesting is that one leaked renderings, supposedly for case-makers, point to a thickness of only 6mm for the iPhone 6. That is the same thickness as the current generation, iPod Touch.

If the leaks are real, the next generation iPhone, although it would be bigger in terms of height and slightly in width, would be super thin! With the camera, antennas, and battery, is that thickness even possible? Is it necessary? I've never head anyone say, the iPhone is too thick. I have heard, the iPhone's battery sucks, on the other hand. Maybe Apple has their priorities wrong...

YouTube channel Unbox Therapy, has gotten one of the cases made possibly from the leaked renderings for the rumored iPhone 6. In the video above, he compares the case to the current iPod Touch which shares the thickness of 6mm. The case shows, that although the iPod doesn't fit (for obvious reasons of height and width differences) the sides fit well, and even the alignment of volume keys match.  

Is the leaked rendering real? Or has someone just made a fake 'perfect' mockup to fool eager Apple fans, and case manufacturers? If real, the iPhone 6 will be impressibly thin - 1.6mm thinner than the iPhone 5s and even 2.1mm thinner than the Samsung Galaxy S5.  Of course there is no way to tell for sure until Apple CEO, Tim Cook, takes the stage the to unveil the next iPhone, presumably in September of this year.

If you wanna see more videos about iPhone 6 leaks, be sure to head over and subscribe to Unbox Therapy's YouTube Channel.

New iPhone 6 "Nitelight" Featuring 5.7" Screen, a 3D Stereo Camera & More... [Concept Video]

Check out this concept video by Mindspi Vision, of a new iPhone with a 5.7 inch screen, dual 3D camera, full aluminium body with curved edges, and with a look of something out of the movie Tron - illuminated bezel, home button and Apple logo. 
Pretty cool design. I like the shape and appearance of the iPhone. A 4.7 inch iPhone would be a much better choice in my opinion. Also I don't see the need for a stereo 3D camera, as I doubt 3D photos has caught on anywhere. Still a nice concept design.

Help Cure Cancer By Playing A Video Game On Your iPhone/iPad or Android - Play to Cure: Genes In Space

What if you could help cure cancer by playing a space flying game on your iPhone / iPad or Android device... Would you play? Because there is an app! It's called Play to Cure: Genes In Space By Cancer Research UK.

"Every day, scientists across the globe are painstakingly analysing the genetic faults in thousands of cancer samples. They are looking for clues that will help develop new cancer treatments. This game let’s you help."

In this space game, you pilot a ship through a course of 'Element Alpha', shooting asteroids that come your way. The element that you are collecting is actually genetic cancer data. The data is the significant genetic changes in individuals. Analyzing this data can help scientists discover cancer causing genes and develop life saving treatments.

"Instead of one lone scientist analysing a cancer data set by eye for hours, a group of gamers can get through that data simply by playing this space themed game and collecting a valuable and tradable substance dubbed, Element Alpha."

This is not the best game in the world - it very far from it. But you do feel great just by playing it. Just thinking that by playing video games, you could be contributing to something like curing cancer, is amazing.

Play to Cure is unfortunately buggy. I experienced a lot of crashes and maps/game not loading. It's hard to help out when the app doesn't even work. It's a shame, because I think if they had made a really cool game they could of got a lot of people playing.

The game features a couple of space-ships, which you can upgrade and customize with items, weapons and colors.  Game also features ranks, which you can go from a recruit to a 'galactic legend'. For a lot of the features to work you will need to make an account and sign in - which is a bit of a bummer. You can play in guest mode - but nothing will be saved.

Cancer is something that affects everyone in life, either directly or indirectly.  I highly recommend everyone download this app. Play some games - help out some scientist - so they can make this world a better place - for everyone.

Play to Cure: Genes In Space is FREE to download and is available for iOS (iPhone/iPad) and Android devices.

iOS 7 How To Not Zoom In Wallpaper - Tutorial - iPhone/iPad

A big problem in iOS 7 with the new parallax / perspective zoom feature was it would mess up your wallpapers. It would also require you to have an extra boundary on photos to allow the 'movement'.

Apple has 'fixed' this problem in iOS 7.1 by allowing users to disable the perspective zoom feature on the wallpapers, while not disabling all other motion on your iPhone/iPad.

For the following to work, you must have iOS 7.1 installed. If you haven't updated already, go to: Settings > General > Software Update.

iOS 7 - How To Not Zoom In On Wallpapers

Disabling Perspective Zoom on wallpapers is really quite simple. Whether you choose your wallpaper through; Settings > Wallpaper & Brightness, or from the Photos app.

On the Wallpaper Preview page, you'll see a new button in iOS version 7.1 which says: Perspective Zoom. All you need to do is switch this option to "Off".  You'll also notice that by just pinch and zooming and moving the image around yourself, the option will turn itself off or on - depending if the current zoom would support the parallax effect.

Dots: Puzzles - New Game For iPhone/iPad By Betaworks One

From the developers who brought you the addicting minimalist puzzle game; Dots: A Game About Connecting, is a new spin-off game - Dots: Puzzles by Betaworks One. 

(*game does not appear as dark gray as in image...)

You may of played - or still play the iOS/Android game Dots: A Game About Connecting. It's a simple looking puzzle game of colored dots. You play the game by drawing lines through the dots (of at least three, and the same color) which collects them.  The best strategy is to connect the dots into squares which will remove all the dots of that color from the grid.

The new Dots: Puzzles game keeps the dots - but turns them into individual puzzles. Each level gives you a required quota of colored dots, which you must collect to move on to the next level. 

The best way to describe Dots: Puzzles is it's a combination of Dots: A Game About Connecting and games like Candy Crush or Candy Mania. 

The games story follows "two brave dots as they traverse arctic tundras". Dots: Puzzles features 60 levels (with more coming soon). 

The gameplay is like Dots, but a little different.  You can collect dots of two and up. You are still aiming to make squares to maximize you score. But in this game, the grid is smaller and you have a limited number of moves available. You also have lives. If you lose a game - you'll lose a life. 

Dots: Puzzles is a fun and challenging puzzle game. Download if you like games: Dots, Candy Crush, Candy Mania, Bejeweled, and other similar apps...


Dots: Puzzles is FREE to download (contains in-app purchases), and is available for iOS (designed for iPhone and iPad) devices.  

Best Video Downloader For iOS (iPhone/iPad) - Download Streaming Videos From Sites - App Review

Video Downloader Pro - Download Manager & Media Player by Devstar Apps is a great video downloader tool for iPhone's and iPad's.

Video Downloader Pro has recently gone FREE in the App Store (at the time of posting) - a saving of $4.99. If you interested in downloading the app (for free) - go now!

Video Downloader Pro is a great app with a bunch of useful features. The app has a built in web browser and can download videos from major streaming video sites (like YouTube, Dailymotion, Metacafe, ect...) Although be aware that unless you're downloading your own videos - it's against the policy/terms of use of many online streaming sites to download videos. Use the app with your own discretion.

The app also says it'll work on any; streaming video sites,  file sharing sites, sites with downloads, and cloud storage sites. With the ability of up to 10 simultaneous downloads.  Resuming of interrupted downloads, and downloads in background.

Video Downloader Pro also acts as a download manager. You can watch the files download, and then view all in a dedicated tab.

You can play videos, make playlists, send it out to a TV, open in another supported app, export to your devices Camera Roll, or email.

There are also the settings to transfer files to your computer via Wi-Fi. Set a pin lock on the app to keep out prying eyes. And some browser / player customization options.

The only things I can find to complain about is - You can't select video quality stream (unless the option is on the site) it's really whatever is playing. So unless the site streams the file, say in HD, you'll save whatever it streams.

Video Downloader Pro is a really good app. Easy to use. Great user interface. Works on many sites like they claim. If you want a video downloader for your iPhone or iPad - download this one!


Video Downloader Pro - Download Manager & Media Player is available for iOS (iPhone/iPad), and is regularty priced at $4.99 - but is FREE at the time of this post. - Download Video Downloader Pro from the iTunes App Store.

Selfies + Drawing = French Girls - Free iPhone App

What do you get when you combined selfies with drawing? You get the app French Girls by Appek LLC.

French Girls is a sharing, drawing app (not just for girls) that encourages you to upload your selfies. Other users of the app will then see your photo and will draw a portrait of you.

The basic concept of the app is - upload your photo (which will share it to the world), and wait for someone to draw a portrait of you (which will also be visible to everyone). The other half of the app is: pressing the draw button - and drawing an portrait of someone else.

There are 4 main buttons in French Girls.

- Draw (pencil) - Randomly get given an photo of a person to draw.  

- Upload Your Picture (camera) - This is where you can take a selfie and upload it to the app. 

- View Gallery (eye) - See a feed of all the photos and drawings by everyone. 

- Your page (French man) - This is where you can see all the drawings you've made and all the photos you've uploaded.  

You can also share photos from the app to various social sites like; Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Or download photos - and report inappropriate pics. 

The app has a simple and easy to use interface.  And while there are some good artist on the app that draw some nice pictures of their subject (they are rare), most of the drawings are all crude, people advertising their social network pages, or are inappropriate. 

I recommend downloading the app if you want to laugh at a crappy drawing some random stranger has drawn of you. Or if you like drawing strangers. 

French Girls is a FREE app (with in-app purchases available) made for iPhone. Download French Girls from the App Store.

How To Set Up & Use Password Manager - LastPass (via TWIT)

If you take your online security seriously, which you should! You'll want very good passwords protecting your internet information.  Re-using passwords from site to site, is not a good idea because if one password is compromised, all your logins are compromised.  Also if you are using passwords like 123456 or password, you're also unsafe.

But how do you remember all these different passwords... Not by writing them down on paper! The best way is to use a good, secure password manager.

There are two great password managers I'd recommend. 1Password, and LastPass. They both work across multiple platforms.  You can find more information about 1Password here. And LastPass on their website.

I wanted to share this video to you all from TWiT.TV. It's a special with tech expert Leo Laporte, who shows you how to download and set up LastPass.  It's a must watch, and it's a great introduction to the password manager and all it's great features.

Narwhal features a iOS 7 inspired design, using a color palette similar to the official Reddit colors. The interface is clean looking and well thought out.

iOS App: How To Tie A Knot - 3D Instructions - iPhone/iPad

How to Tie Knots 3D By Sergey Burlakov is an iOS app all about - you guess it! Tying knots!

Regularly at the price of $1.99 - How to Tie Knots 3D is currently on sale, and you can download the app for FREE!

This app which has been designed for both iPhone and iPad devices, features over 40 of the most essential knots that you may need to know.

Some of the types of knots taught in the app are:  Figure 8, Bowline, Reef knot, timber hitch, double fisherman's, and many more...  If you know the name of what you're looking for, there is search bar that you can type into.

The app shows you step-by-step instruction with 3D animated images. It also includes the text instructions. In the settings, you can even control the animation speed.

The knots are ranked with ratings of: Easy, Middle and Hard. You can mark knots as favorites, and even share by them via Facebook or Twitter.

The interface of the app could use an update, and I have certain dislikes with the app, like the way the text instructions is displayed... But, the instructions and knot animations seem pretty good.

Whether you're a scout, a fisherman, a climber, or for whatever the purpose - this app can probably help you out.

How to Tie Knots 3D is available for iOS (designed for iPhone & iPad). Originally priced at $1.99, currently FREE at the time of this posting. Download the app now, from the App Store! 

New Release: Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff - For iOS & Android

A new Family Guy game has been released for iOS and Android! The game is called: Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff and is made by TinyCo, Inc.

The Quest For Stuff is a FarmVille type game ... or a better description is - The Simpsons: Tapped Out. The game is A LOT like Tapped Out.

The story is; the city of Quahog gets destroyed during an epic fight between Peter Griffin and the Giant Chicken. Now it's up to Peter and other characters from the TV Show to rebuild the town.

"It’s Free! Freakin’ free? Freakin’ sweet!" is what the game says in the description. Is anything really free? No, not really. While it is free to download - the game does contain in-app purchases.

"Game Features:

•  It’s Free! Freakin’ free? Freakin’ sweet!
•  Create a living Quahog that fits enjoyably in your pants
•  Unlock hilarious outfits for your characters like Mermaid Peter, Bikini-Clad Quagmire, and  Rambo Lois
•  Send your characters on ridiculous quests  
•  Keep Quahog safe from pirates, evil chickens, and other invasions
•  Peterfy your town with decorations such as The Petercopter, The Peterdactyl, and The Hindenpeter
•  Unlock hundreds of brand new and classic animations"

Personally I'm not a fan of these town building games. I didn't like The Simpsons: Tapped Out and this game isn't too different. These games are all tapping, 'doing chores' and 'tasks', collecting coins, and waiting around for things to get done, with a slow progression. All while most of the 'cool items' will end up costing you real money.

If you like town building games and the TV show Family Guy, you will love this game! If not, I'd suggest you pass on downloading this game.

Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff is FREE and available for iOS (iPhone/iPad) and Android devices.

How To: Stop iTunes From Automatically Opening From Websites In Chrome [Mac Tip]

Is iTunes automatically opening when you go to certain webpages in Google Chrome? This may because of an option you chose when this first happened. You may of check an option from a pop-up, to auto-open iTunes when you visited certain  websites - like the iTunes Preview webpages.

This option can be reversed! But not as easy as you probably would of liked. It is a little advanced for the basic user, but if you follow the steps right, you should be fine.

How To Stop Google Chrome From Auto Opening iTunes (Mac Tip):

1. The first thing you'll need to do is quit Google Chrome. So it may be a good idea to copy down the instructions, or open this page in a different web browser.

2. From your Desktop home screen, click "Go" in the Menubar.

3. Then hold down the "Option" key. "Library" will appear in the list. Click "Library". Then you can let go of the "Option" key.

4. Next open the folder "Application Support", then "Google", then "Chrome".

5. Find the file called "Local State", and open in Text Editor. You can do this by 'Control-Clicking' (right click) the file and selecting "Open With" - then "Text Editor".  

6. Find the line with "itms" it will probably say "false" / or "true" after it. (Quick way to find the term: press 'command+f' and enter the term).

7. Delete that whole line. (example; " itms: false, ")

8. Close the files / folders. Now next time, instead of iTunes opening automatically, you'll be prompted with a "External Protocol Request". You can choose to open the application - or say "Do Nothing".

Puzzle Game '2048' Strategy Guide To Win The Game - iOS & Android

The iOS game 2048 which has become a huge hit in the App Store, is a addicting number puzzle game. The iOS game is created by developer Ketchapp, but the original version is by Gabriele Cirulli who created and released the game as a desktop version. The app version seems to be a carbon copy.

In '2048' you have a grid of appearing numbers with every move you make. The aim is to slide the grid either in a up, down, left or right direction to add the numbers of the same value together, merging them into one tile. The challenge is to get up to the "2048" tile. If you fill the grid with no more possible moves - it's game over.

If you're having some difficulties 'winning the game' - check out this video by YouTube user SC Runner who shows his three simple rule strategies. The strategy seems good. On first try I tripled my old high-score. Try it out!



2048 is a FREE app, available for iOS (iPhone/iPad). There are also about 500 different versions of the game available for Android devices.

Poll: The iPhone 6 Screen Size Should Be...?

Over the past few weeks, we've asked what are your design preferences for the next iPhone. Should the iPhone 6 have curved or sharp edges? Which the majority voted for sharp edges. Should the next iPhone have a bigger screen? Most people said, yes.

Todays question is, since most people want a bigger screen size on the iPhone 6, what should that screen size be? There have been rumors of Apple working on a 4.7 inch screen, and a 5.5 inch screen. The 5.5 inch is highly unlikely to be released.  That screen size is just stupidly big. The 4.7 inch is more believable.

So now I'm asking you! What is the perfect size for the next iPhone? 4.7 inch? Or 5 inches and bigger?

One of my all time favorite strategy, puzzle games is Monster Island by Miniclip.com.

Monster Island is a game about the creatures who inhabit a colorful island that is unbeknownst to man. But one day monster thugs get loose and start and start harassing the monsters. Playing as a inhabitant of the island, using an arsenal of rocks, mini-monster bombs, and more, it's up to you to find a way in each level to eliminate the monster thugs.

Monster Island is a fun, challenging, puzzle game. It has cute monsters, weapons, strategy, and great art work. There are 315 levels divided into 5 worlds; Yellow Jello, Purple Jam, Monstrocity, Frozen Mellow, & Lava Lamp.

Playing as one of the 'good' monsters, you have a certain group of arsenal at your disposal (depending on the level). Using this equipment, you must figure out how to throw them so you take out the thug-monster(s). You control the throws. You can move the red arrow around and adjust it's strength - and when ready - throw at your target.

To get three on each level, you must complete the levels using the set minimum amount of moves possible.

You also get coins for completing levels. Coins can be used in the Store to buy: Monsters to play with; there are about 16 different monsters that you can buy. Monsters with all sorts of looks and personalities. You can also buy - Solutions; which shows you how to complete the level. Skips; lets you move on the the next level. And 'Unlock Worlds' that you haven't gotten up to yet.

White Tile - Don’t Step On It! For iPhone / iPad & Android Devices

White Tile ~ Don’t Step On It! is a addicting (Japanese viral) game by Cheat Master And Friends Words Cheats LLC.

This app claims to be the original "don't step on the white tile" app. I have found a older app by Ayumu Kinoshita called "Don't step on the white tile" that does date back in the App Store further, however I can't be certain that the app has not changed...  Either way it seems White Tile ~ Don’t Step On It! is the app that has gotten the most attention.

The game is simple, yet challenging. It's a test of reaction times, and your own speed and accuracy. Basically, like the title suggests, the aim is not to step on the white tile. The game is a moving grid of tiles. You job is to tap only the black ones.

There are three different playing modes:

Survival: a moving grid that gets quicker - game ends once you make a mistake.

Time: see how quickly you can complete the course.

Distance: see how many tiles you can tap in 30 seconds.

White Tile ~ Don’t Step On It! has Game Center integration so you can see how you rank with the world (even though Game Center is pretty useless because top scores are just full of cheaters).

A fun, simple, fast reaction game. Great for passing some time, or to help your own reaction times improve.


White Tile ~ Don’t Step On It! is FREE to download, and is available for iOS (designed for iPhone & iPad) and Android devices.
