On a regular basis, Apple World Today posts a list of notable new apps or app updates that have been released. They may not necessarily be new, but they’re popular and deserve mention. Here are today’s picks.
iOS Apps/Updates
Heiko Wichmann has launched Emojiplode 1.0. In the arcade-style casual game, players blast emojs before they touch the ground. They twirl, blink and increase speed to outwit you. When you push a button without hitting a falling emoji, the button is blocked. Emojiplode is free, but does tout in-app purchases.
Windmill Games Studio has introduced The Shadow of Devilwood 1.0. In this free puzzle-solving adventure game, players must take on the role of detective Linwood to find all the clues that lead to a missing person as well as to the crown.
Wurqs has debuted Ping 1.0. It’s a free digital business card app that removes the dependency for two people to both have the app for it to be useful. Ping doesn’t only allow individuals to share their profile and information; it also allows users to learn more about the people they connect with, and keep track of the people they meet both using notes and a timeline. The app includes a selection of customisable prompts to inspire new conversation or further connections.
