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
Maysalward has conjured up Magic Painting 1.0. It’s a free augmented reality coloring book app. Magic Painting is based on a live texturing process that applies the captured texture from a 2-D colored drawing, and then turning it into a 3-D character in real time. The drawing is detected, tracked and augmented with an animated 3-D version of the character texture according to the child’s coloring.
PixelSplincher has launched Motion Graphix. It’s a $2.99 (for a limited time) 2.5D keyframe animation app for the iPad. Motion Graphix lets iPad artists compose images, text, animated GIFs and curves into multilayer animations with depth.
macOS Apps/Updates
Aquarius Computer has released TurnTable 2.0, a feature update to their music player for macOS. The update presents record albums as real albums.
