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 deserve mention. Here are this week’s picks.

iOS

NextObject has released KidsScript Ver. 1.0 for iOS. It’s a programming language designed especially for children and teens from ages 8 to 18.

As a text-based programming language compatible with JavaScript, KidsScript has been developed so that even young children can develop an early familiarity with JavaScript. KidsScript offers a full-scale programming experience that includes figure drawing, user event processing, animation & game creation, and communications processing on our unique block editor.
