Nuance seems to like the iPhone because they have just released their second app in the app store, dragon search, which can search popular websites such as google, Twitter, wikipedia, and YouTube.

It is really simple, press the red button and speak. That’s it! It will automatically Start searching for what you said and it’s really fast.

iVideoCamera

Jeremy — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 20:36:51 +0000

iVideocamera is an app made just for the iPhone 2G and 3G both of Which are lacking a native support for video recording. But all that is changing now that apple has allowed usage of the private API that allows an app to get the contents of your screen.

What does this mean? It means Go download this app! It allows you to record video on your phone.

The app is limited to only recording 1 minute of video at a time. And it only records at 3 FPS (frames per second) so the video isn’t all that great. But laan labs (the creator of the app) is working on an update to increase the frame rate and video quality… Of course I hope they update it soon

reMAIL

Jeremy — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 18:53:14 +0000

I didn’t think I would use this app when I saw it, but as soon as I used it I knew I would use it all the time.

reMail downloads your email to your phone so you can have it even when there is no Internet Connection. There is a search feature that promises that you can instantly search all your downloaded emails. I have tried the search and it is Crazy fast!!

You can pay to have an ad free version (it’s an in-app purchase). You can also pay to use IMAP email addresses.

WeatherBug

Jeremy — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 04:40:00 +0000

I love this app. Why? Because it’s awesome. Weather bug is a good app for everything weather related.

Some great features include:
Live map view of weather
7 day forecast
High and low temperatures
Video of the latest weather reports
Camera view from selected locations.

It also shows wind speed and direction.
It shows active weather alerts such as: tornado alert, flood watch, hurricane warning.

The live weather view is great i can see where the storm is. I got to use that today when the canals in Metairie, which is right outside of New Orleans, were filled all the way up. It flooded so bad I saw houses partially flooded and I saw a mail truck submurged. I had to drive all the way around the city to get to my house because one of the streets had 2 feet of water!

iCall

Jeremy — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 17:21:54 +0000

If you have problems with AT&T’s service and you don’t like the sound quality of the calls then this app is for you. Personaly I love AT&T and I hardly ever have any issues, but some people live in areas that has a huge population of AT&T users which causes problems.

iCall is a voIP (voice over IP) application that gives you free outgoing calls to anyone in the united states and if you pay a small fee you can get all your incoming calls pushed to this app.

This app features a contact list just like your contacts app so you feel right at home. You can just dial a number and the phone you call sees your cell phone number (or if they have your contact in their phone they will see your name).

iSashimi

Jeremy — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 21:23:04 +0000

When I downloaded this app I was astounded at how stupid this game is.

Object: touch the sashimi to put a flower on top of it… That’s it!!!!

I wrote a review on the app store saying what I thought about the app. I said that the app was stupid. You can see my review and the “developer’s” reveiw below. I can honestly say that the developer Made another account just to say goody things about his app.

Please if you want to try the app out and see what I’m talking about please only download the app when it’s free normaly it’s $6.99. I downloaded the app when it was free which is December 11, 2009

Awesome Note

Jeremy — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 02:26:58 +0000

Awesome note is a great app for note taking.
You can have as many folders as you like. You can use any font. You can use themes. Basically you can do everything!

It supports syncing with google docs and backing up to google docs. It can also sync with EverNote
Another good note taking app.

Awesome note can also be a todo list with badges for upcoming events.
This app is really good, and I recommend this to every one!

iTimeLapse Pro

Jeremy — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 21:50:20 +0000

My expectations for this app were completely blown away by this severe awesomeness that I saw when using this app.

I have already made multiple videos, and I have come to the conclusion that this is by far the best Time lapse app for the iPhone. I will never feel remorse for buying this app… EVER!

This app allows you to take a bunch of pictures and make a video… And that’s the understatement of the century!

To see how good the app works here is a video I made

Update: I have had this app for less than a day and I am in love with it!
