EOC Week 6: 9 Apps


3 apps great
Infinity blade is a very popular app that is a game for a specific market that is into games. Most of the target market belongs to teenagers, teens, and college students, looking to play with something to try to pass the time while they aren’t bored. In addition it’s also entertaining to play. “Infinity Blade is by far the best looking game ever to appear on the iphone. Developed by Epic using the same engine that powered the incredible tech demo, Epic Citadel, it is no surprise that Infinity Blade is visually on par with modern console games.” http://techcrunch.com/2010/12/26/top-40-iphone-apps-2010/

Amazon is a very good app when you’re looking for something to purchase, whether it be a book, music games or anything that has to deal with lifestyle, or just a hobby.  http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/completelist/0,29569,2044480,00.html

Another app I think is great would be the Netflix app. Since we are in a technological revolution we always watch TV. shows and movies on the internet so why not have an app on your phone where you can view it on your hand. http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/completelist/0,29569,2044480,00.html
3 apps dumb
Poop the world is the stupidest app ever because with GPS navigation systems it is able to target where you are in order to tell everyone when and where you’re doing your business, that’s disgusting!  This just tells us there are a lot of programmers who might be good in code but dumb when it comes to ideas on what to develop. Yeah or might be smart to fool a shallow user to buy their apps.” Said consumer,

Fat burner 2k is a really stupid app, it just turns your phone into a work out machine it’s not really that smart. Besides it’s tricking you, if I were to do this vs. the gym I would totally hit the gym. “FatBurner's secret: The app makes your iPhone vibrate. Apparently, that tiny vibration, placed upon your massive belly, will magically transform you from Mr. Jiggles to Mr. McConaughey.http://www.pcworld.com/article/170157/the_10_most_idiotic_iphone_apps.html

“If rating your smooching skills isn't enough, a new app called Passion promises to judge how good you are at going all the way.http://www.pcworld.com/article/170157/the_10_most_idiotic_iphone_apps.html  Honestly this is a really really stupid app, no one can really judge how well you have sex, unless you want someone who wants to judge you, and you have a really insecure girlfriend.
3 apps good ideas
an app I think that would be of great use would be a locator app for when you’re shopping, that’s perfect because if you can’t find a store they should have something to find the store near you.

A good app I would come up with would be a personal shopper app where you could have your personal shopper who will mix and match outfits to help pick out the perfect outfit for the perfect place you’re going to.

A cool app would also be something like an buyers app where conventions are actually held online and 
personal buyers are able to buy clothes from the producer so everything will be easier to the buyer and the manufacturer.
