Refurbished iPad and iPhones - Apps every iPhone 5s user should own - buyEtail.com





Given that there are over 900,000 apps in the App Store, it’s hard to narrow that list down to just ten. So here are a few honorable mentions for app categories we haven’t mentioned above:

CALCULATOR: PCALC ($10) PCalc has long been a great calculator for the Mac, and an equally great one for iOS. For math nerds and anyone else who needs a bit more than the stock Calculator app offers.

CALENDAR: FANTASTICAL ($5) iOS’s first calendar with natural-language processing, Fantastical is a great tool for quickly adding events and viewing your calendar if you want something a little more powerful than Apple’s included Calendar app.

DOCUMENTS: GOODREADER ($5) Need to download a .zip archive, PDF, or other odd file to your iPhone? Chances are, GoodReader can handle it. The app supports full PDF notation, downloads from FTP, and more.

WEB: CHROME (FREE) Safari is a fantastic Web browsing tool, but Google’s Chrome can be a good alternative if you use the company’s browser on your computer. Besides, you never know when you might need a different Web browser.

NOTES: SIMPLENOTE (FREE) If you’re looking for a few more features than the included Notes app offers, Simplenote is your app. It offers simplicity, sleek design, automatic iOS and Mac sync, collaboration features, and more.

RADIO: PANDORA (FREE) If iTunes Radio isn’t quite doing it for you, Pandoraoffers a different spin on curated radio, using its Music Genome Project to create stations from artists and songs.

TWITTER CLIENT: TWITTERRIFIC 5 ($3) Twitterrific is an elegantly designed, fun-to-use Twitter client that takes iOS 7’s design cues to the next level.

SOCIAL: FACEBOOK (FREE) If you’re a Facebook fan, the company’s appdoesn’t get much better. It’s been redesigned for iOS 7 and supports almost every feature available on the Web.

FOOD: YELP (FREE) Hungry? Yelp can help you find delicious food in your neighborhood based on recommendations from local users.

VNC: SCREENS ($20) Your iPhone can do a lot, but sometimes it’s just not the tool you need for the job. Screens lets you view your home computer’s display—no matter where you are—and work remotely with ease.

Refurbished iPad and iPhones - 5 Must Have Apps For The iPhone - buyEtail.com



5 Must Have Apps For The iPhone image apps for iPhone

 

There are literally a million apps available in the App Store for iPhones. As of October, 2013, Apple was proud to announce they had grown from their initial offering of 800 apps in July of 2008, to a total of 1,000,000 (475,000 native to the iPad).

Obviously, it will take quite a while to get through that huge list of “helpers”. These are the tools that make your phone the truly powerful tool it can be. Okay, so it can also be a great time waster with the endless amount of games and other amusements, but we’re going to stick with some of the more productive options out there.

Google Maps This is the app I find myself using more than any other. Having an Atlas and GPS in your pocket at all times is a convenience it’s almost hard to believe I lived without. Google Maps is still by far the best free map app available for the iPhone.

You can look up addresses and get turn-by turn directions in real time. There are tips to avoid traffic, and safer bike routes (in select areas). What more could you ask for? Well, plenty, probably. But it won’t be long before that’s available, too.

Snapseed is the most versatile camera app available today – at least for free. It offers a nice range of editing tools and cool filters, along with strong photo correction, non-destructive editing and localized adjustments.

Besides integrating well with all of the social networks, Snapseed is the only iPhone app that comes close to a desktop photo-editing program.

LinkedIn continues to be the best business networking tool available. Whether you are very active in the professional world, or just looking for a job, LinkedIn can be a priceless aid.

Having full access to your business associates and all their information at the ready can prove to be invaluable.

Regardless of your field, as the smartphone and networking worlds grow so does LinkedIn. It is an important online network for anyone serious about their profession, and offers a very thorough iPhone app.

Dashlane is a very simple and effective password manager app. Like with any other password app, you’ll have to create one strong password to remember for you Dashlane account. All other passwords can be generated (on another device) and saved automatically to your account.

The app allows you access to your login credentials, and a copy and paste function for the encrypted passwords into apps and mobile websites when you need to use them.

There are some limitations to the free version, but a premium account can be had for $4.99 a month, or $39.99 a year. The premium account includes syncing which is vital to using the iPhone app. Dashlane is extremely secure, and if you perform sensitive transactions on your phone, it is worth the extra security.

Dropbox is, for many computer users, synonymous with file sharing and synching. It has been around for a long time, and as probably the most recognizable name in file-sharing, it integrates with literally hundreds of other apps and services.

Dropbox is a great way to have access to, and share, files of all types for you and your team – whatever the project may be – and wherever you may be. If you already use Dropbox as a computer user, the app is a must. You have access to all the files, wherever you are, in your pocket.

Twitter. Yes, this is a list of 5 Essential apps, and this is number 6. I debated adding Twitter, but decided to add it because of its ever-growing omnipresence in every facet of our culture.

We all need our distractions from time to time, and there is no question that Twitter is indeed a never-ending stream of that.

And, unlike Angry Birds, it can be legitimately used for business opportunities – or, at least that’s always a fair excuse.

Refurbished iPad and iPhones - Mind-boggling iPhone and iPad Apps - buyEtail.com




For every jaw-dropping, must-have app for iPad and iPhone there are dozens more that are mad, bad or just plain wrong.

We've rounded up just 10 of our favourites. We're sure you can find many more.

Sexy Piano

There are loads of piano apps on the iPhone, but few are as bizarre as this. Hit different keys and you're greeted "a beautiful woman's sexy sound", which turns out to be the kind of 'oohs' and 'ahhs' you last heard in a dodgy movie. Also available on Android. Rated 12+
Sexy piano

Auto Will

It's statistically very unlikely that you'll get run over by a bus tomorrow, but are you ready to take that chance? Worrywarts can console themselves (a bit) by filling out their last will and testament on their iPhone or iPad and then pinging it off to their friends, relatives and solicitors just in case. Don't try filling it in when you're crossing the road though, eh?
Auto will

Is Career Women More Divorce

Apple proudly boasts that there are 250,000 apps available from the iTunes Store, but an awful lot of them seem to be made up of crud like this. The app description explains why marrying a career woman is more likely to end in divorce (feeling bitter Mr. Developer?) but then fails to really explain what insights you'll gain from downloading the app.

Bizarrely the app is rating 17+ for its 'frequent/intense sexual content or nudity', while the developer website points you to a GoDaddy domain name parking page. We'll pass, thanks.
Is career women more divorce

BedRabbit

Think you're a star performer in the sack? Then prove it by firing up this app and then lying your iPhone on the bed while you get jiggy. BedRabbit will assess your performance based on intensity, rhythm, progression, diversity and artistic (?!) criteria and also listens in to the sounds you and your partner(s) make.

Once this 17+ app has totted up your score you can email the results to your friends so they can point and laugh at you next time you're down the pub.

Refurbished iPad and iPhone - Weirdest Apps Ever Made - buyEtail.com



 

With over a million mobile apps now available in the app stores, app developers should be proud of their honourable contribution to the global tech community. Their apps have made a huge difference in the lives of users around the world, both increasing, and severely decreasing, the productivity of us all.

Today we honour the eccentric people who have brought us the most outrageous, quirky and clever apps around. Without further adieu, I give you the 12 weirdest apps we could possibly find:


Drunk Dial No!

We all have a few contacts in our phone that should NOT be called at 1am on a Friday night. With Drunk Dialer No, you can hide contact phone numbers from your belligerent self for up to 48 hours. Never again will you wake up regretting the calls you made the night before. For all you singles with your brain below your waist, block your ex’s and say “NO” to that late night booty call!

 

Paper Racing

Now that you’ve released that pressure, its time to snag some TP and clean up the mess. This addictive game pairs you up against your friends to find out who can spin-off a roll of toilet paper the fastest. Which technique will you use; the Fast Tap or the BIG BEAR SWIPE?

 Game for Cats

Scientific Fact: Cats play video games; their favourite machine is the iPad 3.

This iPad app is world famous. It’s gotten press from the New York Times, L.A. Times, WIRED.CO.UK, Gizmodo, ABC News and more. It’s simple: cat chase laser on screen, owner like happy cat, owner get duped with in-app purchase and buy “Mouse Level”. Cat now chase small rodent on screen and catch with paw. Needless to say, this app developer has touched the hearts of crazy cat ladies worldwide.


Annoy-A-Teen

Does your teen son or daughter act like an irrational animal? If so, it’s time to treat them like one. With Annoy-A-Teen, you can blast out irritatingly high frequency sounds that will drive them nuts. The beauty of it is your old ass ears won’t hear a thing! This app even works covertly; hide it in your pocket and those little SUCKAZ won’t know what hit ‘em!









The Brostache

This app is perfect for Ron Burgundy wannabe’s and the poor folks who can’t grow facial hair for ‘Movember’. Step 1: Choose one of the seven stache’s suitable for a variety of occasions: a business meeting, raging party, or hot date. Step 2: Place the phone over your mouth and speak - the moustache mouth will

mimic your words.

Refurbished Apple iPad and iPhone - The Most Expensive Apps For iPhone And iPad In The World - buyEtail


 

Apple's App Store is dominated by free and cheap apps.

However, there are more expensive options in the store, too.

While compiling this list, we realized that there are more super-expensive apps that we thought.

They show the App Store can be a really big software market for a number of different industries.

Surprisingly, others are poorly designed gimmicks and don't justify the sky-high price.

Despite that, these apps show the long-term potential of iPhones and iPads to up-end lots and lots of markets. 
$99.99 — Sexy Finger Print Test HD lets you find out your "sexy score." The app claims it can tell you the perfect time to meet members of the opposite sex. The app says you should use it once a day to get results in 30 seconds.

Refurbished iPad and iPhone 5 - Three Things Apple iPads Do Well For Seniors - buyEtail.com




My 4 year old grandson is facile and very  adept with his Dad’s iPad.  His generation knows nothing of clunky desk top machines that weighed 60 lbs. out of the box.  He knows only of a slick one pound device with brilliant color, great sound and video right at hand that can transport him to wonderful entertainment, challenging games and great educational opportunities for 10 hours without a plug. 

I was a late adopter of anything Apple and only came into the fold earlier this year.  One reason I bought my iPad was to be able to read many magazines on line and the weekend newspapers when on my boat and away from a newsstand or home delivery options.  Another was the amazing array of tide and weather information available through NOAA websites and those of others who take the NOAA data and massage it in meaningfully useful ways to form independent and very useful weather predictions.  There is no longer an excuse to be out in a bad storm when you can tune into radar displays that show storm cells as they form and head in your direction. That means plenty of time to get your sails down and head for a safe port in a bad storm.  All you need is the telecom carriers to support your device while you are out on the briny.  Unfortunately, that isn’t always a given in the Northeast. 

I was quite surprised at the advantages Apple and its tablet competitors offer to senior citizens with diminishing senses. That includes people with reduced mobility. It is also user friendly for those whose hands, wrists, and fingers, twisted with arthritis,  no longer want to cooperate to open doorknobs or to secure or open buttons or shoe laces.  For sure, Apple’s fine designs have made Motorola, Dell, and Hewlett Packard retreat from their early efforts in this product category. Amazon and Barnes & Noble have had more success with their book readers, Nook and Kindle which cost a fraction of the price of an iPad even if they can’t do all the same tricks.

 The Three Things Apple Got Right:

1. As eyesight fades and it becomes harder and harder to see the printed page, what a wonderful facility tablets offer to their users to simply expand the type to a size that is easy for you to read.  There is no embarrassment to have to ask for a large type newspaper or book. You can simply push your fingers apart and make the type whatever size works for you.

 2. If the senior is comfortable with the internet, it is still possible for them to easily read email from siblings, children and grandchildren who want to keep in touch with them.  Even if they cannot type themselves, they can at least receive and enjoy communications from their friends and loved ones.

3. Friends and family can load in large photo albums of old photos or new ones that can be easily viewed by the senior.  I recently met a woman who had just been to Florida to visit her 89 year old father, now in a nursing home.  His hands are gnarled with arthritis and he surely cannot type but he could easily swipe his hands across the pictures he was viewing to move along to the next one.  He was thrilled to be able to control the device by himself on this simple level and asked if he could have one of his own.

Refurbished iPad and iPhone 5 - iPhone 5 in-car: Everything you need to know - buyEtail.com


iPhone 5 in-car: Everything you need to know

 

Unless you've been living under a pile of discarded iPhone 3GSs, you'll know by now that Apple's new iPhone 5 is out of the bag. But is it good news for car owners?

Here's everything you need to know about using the new iPhone 5 in your car.

Dock connector
Lightning


One of the big changes with iPhone 5 is the dock connector. Out goes the old 30-pin item that's been around since 2003. In comes the new Lightning port.
Apple has been quick to point out that it has come up with an adapter to allow the new handset to work with old 30-pin sockets. It even showed an iPhone 5 hooked up to an Audi during the keynote launch presentation. 
But here's the problem. Some cars hook into the 30-pin's analogue audio and video outputs, including some BMW and MINI models, for instance. But Lightning is a digital interface.
Fortunately, the Apple Lightning to 30-pin adapter (yours for £25) does allow for analogue audio output, but not analogue video. So features such as iPod out on MINI Connected will be permanently borked unless someone makes an adapter that converts video as well.

Bigger screen
iPhone 5

The old iPhone's 3.5-inch screen ensured maximum portability. But it's pretty scrawny in an in-car context.
The new iPhone 5 has a bigger 4-inch, 16:9 screen with an even higher resolution 1,136 x 640 pixel screen. The latter won't help much with in-car viewing distances.
But the larger four-inch diagonal can only be good if you plan to slip it into a dock and use it for things like navigation. And on that very note...

Adios to Google maps
iPhone 5 nav

Google maps is a gonner with fresh installs of iOS 6 and the iPhone 5. In comes Apple's own mapping app, with data supplied by TomTom. 
That should be a very good thing for car drivers as TomTom is one of, if notthe, leading sat nav makers for the auto industry. For starters, you now get turn-by-turn navigation as standard in an iPhone.
You'll also get really detailed traffic info, thanks in part to crowd-sourced data from Waze. Add in the larger 4-inch screen and you've got what should be a great in-car sat nav.

Siri voice control
Apple Siri
 

This one isn't actually iPhone 5 specific. But it's a feature that's rolling out as the iPhone 5 arrives. Siri is coming to cars.
Several manufacturers including Audi, BMW, Toyota and Jaguar will be including voice-command buttons on steering wheels to activate Siri on synced iPhone handsets.
You'll get full Siri voice control functionality using the car's integrated mics and speakers. Since Siri is one of the better voice-recognition solutions on the market – and generally better than the efforts most car manufacturers have come up with – this is a good thing.

Do not disturb
 
iPhone 5 in-car

Gadget-related driver distraction is becoming a major safety headache, as the social networking-obsessed attempt to text and tweet from behind the wheel.Will power would seem the obvious solution. Back in the real world, a phone that isn't constantly pinging you with tempting notification noises would help.
That's where the new Do Not Disturb feature comes in. It uses the iPhone 5's accelerometer and GPS features to figure out when car and driver are on the move and slips into minimum-distraction mode, silencing alerts and keeping the screen blank.
It's not the first time we've seen such a feature to combat driver distraction from smartphones.

Refurbished iPad and iPhone 5 - Worst iPad Apps - buyEtail.com




野菜写真集 for iPad



 
by akio

This is strange app to say the least. It's a collection of photos of Vegetables. That's it picture of vegetables in from Japan. It seems to have no point or purpose. There's a lite version though. To make it extra bad and not just strange is that there are only 24 photos.
Chocolates!!
 


by Appster

This officially may the worst app. They want you to pay a dollar for a virtual box of chocolates. News Flash the reason a box of chocolates is appealing because you get to eat chocolates. How delicious is it tapping on images of chocolates? Seriously such a waste of space.
 
Large Desktop Wallpapers

 

by Yummy and Yummy, LLC.

All wallpaper apps seem pretty pointless. Seeing as you have the entire internet on your iPad with access to any images, even the ones included in these apps. Just as and hold on an image for a menu to pop up to save as background. This one in particular seems extra bad with wallpapers that actually make your iPad look worse. There are free better wallpaper apps to if you have to have one.
Mirror HD-Full Screen

 

by Spencer Brown

The iPhone version is one of the lowest rated apps ever as it just takes you picture and puts a frame around it. The iPad doesn't even have a camera to do that. The iPad is reflective enough as is to use as mirror without any app that costs a dollar to do nothing at all. BAD.
Modern Clock XL


 

by 4getMeNot

It's a digital clock that doesn't even look that great. It lets you play music while looking at the lock that takes up the entire screen. The iPad has this built in music player, maybe you've heard of it, and iPod. While in the iPod you can see the time at top bar. This app gives a new meaning to useless.

Refurbished iPads and iPhones - iPad Apps for College Students - buyEtail.com





 

The iPad is hot Many college students will be hopping onto the bandwagon, and so we asked our friend Ryan Wood, a graduate of theUniversity of Findlay in Ohio, and now working at 148Apps.com, for some his top picks for college students. (Reviews of the apps listed below are available at 148Apps.com.) 

Here are some of the winners:

1. Dictionary.com. (Price: FREE) This made the list of top iPhone apps and is a must have for the iPad as well. Added functionality and an updated inventory of almost 1 million words makes this app a great companion in the college atmosphere. The entire dictionary, as well as the added thesaurus, is available offline. Additional features are available during Wi-Fi connectivity. 

2. Pages. (Price: $9.99) With Pages, Apple has created an extremely powerful word processing application on a mobile device. Containing Templates, advanced layout tools, and easy-to-use touch commands, Pages makes putting together papers easy and efficient. Pages also offers the ability to export documents to Pages '09 for the Mac, Microsoft Word, or PDF, ensuring compatibility regardless of what your specific campus uses. 

3. Numbers. (Price: $9.99) Numbers is the spreadsheet version of Pages, with the same compatibility and feature list offered with its word processing counterpart. It makes creating spreadsheets on the go simple and effective. Numbers offers exporting compatibility with Numbers '09 for the Mac, Microsoft Excel, and PDF. 

4. The Elements: A Visual Exploration. (Price: $13.99) This one is a little pricey, but for anyone with a science major, it's a must have. This powerful gem of an app provides detailed information in high-definition graphics for each element on the periodic table. See visual representations of each element, read about their specific attributes, and find examples of them in day-to-day life, all from the convenience of the iPad. As a political science undergrad, I still found myself mesmerized at the detail of this app. 

5. Things for iPad. (Price: $19.99) Things for iPad is another return hit from the best iPhone apps for college students. It's the most expensive app on the list, which made putting it on this list difficult. Then I remembered what it was like to have 18 credit hours, six clubs, fraternity meetings, dates, studying, campus events ... you get the idea. Things for iPad provides the same great time management that the original Things did, in a bigger, prettier, easier to use iPad-specific format. You'll be remembering which club event is where and how much time is available to cram for that economics midterm in no time.

 
6. Articles for iPad. (Price: $0.99) Articles provides a gorgeous user interface to help search Wikipedia on the go. I appreciate the debate about Wikipedia's relevance on college campuses and was told by plenty of professors not to use it. That said, it provided me with excellent starting material and a great list of resources to investigate all information. Added functionality, such as shaking the iPad to bring up a random posting, makes Articles fun even on those days that you're bored and trying to find something to do in your dorm room.

If you have children and run a household, chances are you're constantly trying to think of clever ways to convince your kids to help you empty the dishwasher, clean their rooms and take out the trash. Giant posters and smiley-face stickers may be out of style, but iRewardChart is the award-winning iPad application that's cool with kids. iRewardChart motivates children to assist with responsibilities around the house by giving them custom rewards for a job well done, like "one hour of television" or "$5.00 allowance money." As chores are checked off, parents can track kids' progress and see which child deserves a pat on the back -- or a chocolate chip cookie -- for good behavior.

Grocery IQ

It happens to the best of us: You carefully write a grocery listbefore heading to the store but still forget to pick up toilet paper. With the Grocery IQ iPad app, shopping at the supermarket is fast, simple and you'll never forget the TP again. Jot down items as you need them, and use Grocery IQ's database containing millions of products to build lists quickly. You can add notes about quantity, container size and prices, and this app also categorizes your grocery lists by store aisle, so you'll never wander aimlessly around the supermarket looking for an elusive item again.

Grocery IQ can even save you money! The app features an integrated coupon book that updates regularly, allowing you to print coupons at home or add them to a store loyalty card.
 

Remember the Milk

Remember the Milk is an iPad app that helps you stay organized with day-to-day activities. Take your to-do list with you and organize appointments, deadlines and chores on the go. Prioritize important tasks with an easy-to-use, color-coded system, and you can label tags with custom titles to help you quickly find notes related to items on your to-do list. Remember the Milk can also remind you of pending deadlines by e-mailtext or instant messenger. Just be careful that the app knows what time zone you're in, or a reminder might not make it to you in time to get the job done!
