[UPDATED: Mon - Feb 22, 2010 @ 10:00am Mountain time] Apple has made a move recently at making the App store more family friendly. They are looking to remove all “Overtly Sexual Content” as they put it, but no clear definition was given. There are numerous apps in the App Store that are nothing more than pornography deliverers. We have also seen an influx of the number of “Digitial Girlfriends” available via the App Store. However, these days are numbered as Apple has recently sent a letter out to all developers of these apps, warning them that these apps are thus forth, no longer appropriate for the App store.

Have you wanted to get in on the iPhone app craze, but can’t, because you simple aren’t a coder? Well for all of you that feel that way, your future is looking very bright. We have already heard that the new version of Adobe Flash that is to be released later this year, will have the option to export to iPhone App format. The problem is that a copy of Flash will set you back about a minimum of $400, plus it is still going to require you to use some code (albeit actionscript).

Now there is a new option, an app that will allow you to create an app without a single semi-colon of code, it’s called App-o-mator.

This is by far the coolest app we have ever seen come to the iPhone. The idea is so original and so much more advanced than any other app on the market right now. Parrot, a french company (view english site here), has debuted a new augmented reality app for the iPhone and iPod touch, that lets you control a remote  controlled helicopter using the wi-fi from your iPhone or iPod touch. The controls are “intuitive” and “user friendly” as told by the companies promotional video, however we haven’t been able to get our hands on one yet for a full review (wink, wink Parrot).

Anyone that has purchased an app within the past few hours, or even someone who browsed the app store looking for say… free games (Appvent Calendar: free iphone game every day until christmas) will notice a new look in the app store. Apple has just released this new look and is starting to make the change to all of the apps. Not every app shows these changes just yet, but the greater part does.

So what’s the big deal? What is new? Am I even going to notice? Yes! These are big changes, and you will notice them. Read the rest of this entry »

You probably won’t notice most of these missing Apps, but the news is still very newsworthy. Apple has decided to actually cut some of the apps in the Appstore. As appalling as it may sound, the reason is actually a very good one. Every app developer that is caught “spamming” or in Apple terms, performing “iphoneography” will be banned along with all of their apps.

What is iPhoneography?

This isn’t a joke, it isn’t a scam. Quite simply, you can get an exciting new iPhone/ iPod touch game every single day this month until christmas day. You have all seen or heard of those advent calendars, well this is an appvent calendar! Blacksmith games is hosting the calendar, and will be releasing minimum of 1 free game each day until Christmas.

The games are only free on the day that they are released, so you need to check back often, but it is an exciting and fun way to get some new games for your iPhone or iPod touch. Read the rest of this entry »

However pointless this post may seem to be initially, I can promise you that sheer creativity on behalf of some iPhone app developers warrants it.

Have you ever felt so out of air that you couldn’t blow out your own candles?
How about so tired that you couldn’t blow herbs across the table to… umm… where-ever you wanted them to go?
Have you ever been in a remote location and instantly wished you had a very low powered leaf blower in your pocket? Read the rest of this entry »
