More great apps by you!

It’s that time again! Had another great group of apps submitted this past month, and I’ve enjoyed playing with all of them! Our apps for this month include:

  • A sweet guitar game to put your thumbs to work.
  • An app to get you off the couch.
  • A sweet app for when the inspiration strikes.

But that’s not all of it – there’s much more! Read on for awesome apps and games made by your fellow readers!

InstaMedi

InstaMedi is a powerful application allowing medical professionals to share and find photos related to their field and specialty.

Finding information is fast and accurate using the powerful search functionality. The community can come together for peer advice with conversations attached to each image.

Recent industry news and white papers also appear within the app keeping medical personnel up to date.

Honey Bears

Honey Bears is a fun level based game that gives you not one, but two characters to control.

Each level has you trying to knock a bee hive down. The twist is you control both the knocker and the catcher and toggle between them to successfully collect bee hives.

The trick is to figure out how to use both bears quickly and effectively as the levels call for more and more complex combinations. ;]

RopeSkipping Pro

Skipping rope is easy. Counting, tracking, and recording stats is a whole different beast.

RopeSkipping Pro is an app that helps solve that problem. Simply turn on the app and slip it in your pocket while you exercise and it counts every hop, jump, and skip.

The app can record a simple count until you’re done or it can set off applause when you reach your goal.
