Manage your tasks while satisfying your hunger for 8-bit gaming with Quest. This easy-to-use app turns every task into a "quest" for your blocky avatar to embark upon. As you complete more and more tasks, your character will grow, gaining new items to keep you motivated. And while the graphics, sound effects, and gamification are all top-notch, so is the intuitive interface, making the app both useful and fun.
There was something sublime about the one-use cameras of old — the rickety construction, the fun of blowing through the last few shots, the joy of getting the prints back to see what you captured. Disposable Camera aims to bring at least some of that experience to your iPhone. Like the real thing, you can't see your photos after you've taken them, and also like the film equivalent, you're limited to a set number of shots (27 in this case). Best of all, you don't need to do a thing once you've hit the end of a roll: the app automatically uploads your shots, and you'll receive your high-quality 4"x6" prints in 10 business days, at a cost of $13 per roll.
Hardcore collectors and footwear enthusiasts in general will get a kick out of Sneakers: The Complete App. Based on two prior books from U-Dox, this encyclopedic app features in-depth looks at over 500 shoe designs from the likes of Nike, adidas, Puma, Saucony, Asics, Converse, and others. There are 360º rotations of every sneaker as well as high-res images, and you can filter the listings to drill down for a certain segment of shoe, or view them all in a timeline. An interactive look at the anatomy of a sneaker and a look inside a collaborator's studio rounds out the iPad-as-coffee-table-book offering.

Coders, managers, illustrators — whatever your job, odds are you've had to deal with a whiteboard before. Now you can carry one with you with the Wipebook Pro. This notebook holds 20 writeable pages that work just like a normal whiteboard, letting you write, erase, and re-write countless times. Brass binding lets it lay flat, cow-friendly faux leather front and rear covers help when it's time to digitize a page, and unlike the board at work, you can take it home without ever having to worry about an overzealous janitor "cleaning" away your valuable notes.

Yes, it comes preloaded with some recipes. But you're not downloading Highball for yet another Old Fashioned how-to. Instead, this well-designed app is meant to serve as a repository for the recipes you've picked up near and far, from books, magazines, and crafty old barkeeps at out-of-the-way speakeasies. What's more, it's super-simple to share a recipe, and every time you do, a high-quality image is created sporting a QR code that makes it super simple for your friends/followers to add it to their own collections.
It's true: every photo app on your phone can handle black and white conversions. Hell, some are built into iOS itself. But none of those tackle B&W quite like Black. Built from the ground up to emulate black & white film, it uses carefully analyzed and reproduced films from the likes of Fuji, Agfa, Kodak, Ilford, and others to recreate the effects of those classic rolls on your own photos. In addition, it offers built-in vignette, fade, and curve controls, ensuring that your monochrome masterpieces look just right without the need to fire up a second app.
