If you want to shoot b&w, get this app now
Every now and again you find something on the App Store that brings a smile to your face because you know it’s new, it’s different, and it does something that no other app has done before. Hueless is a one dollar black-and-white camera app that meets all those criteria and more, and after just a day of shooting with it, I think I’m in love.

Fotor: yet another all-in-one camera app
Another day, another all-singing and all-dancing photography app. This one is called Fotor, priced at one dollar. Do we need more of these? Probably not. Is this one any good? Yeah, mostly. But it doesn’t stand out in the crowd.
Get Your Gmail Backed Up Where You Need It [Review]

A few rough edges, but it works
BackUp Gmail does what you’d expect: it backs up your Gmail account to your desktop computer. It’s a simple Menu Bar app that works in the background. It’s only $2 in the Mac App Store, but does have a few problems.

Why hello there little furry... snakey... thing...
What’s Snabbit? I’ll tell you what it is: it’s Snake, all over again. Is gaming still all about collecting stars? This game is.

That's my kitchen that is
Looking for a “pro” camera app for your iPhone? There’s no shortage of options on the App Store. This week, we’re taking a look at one that has the most descriptive name: ProCamera.
Make Music With A Wave Of Your Hand [Review]
![Make Music With A Wave Of Your Hand [Review]](http://cultofmac.cultofmaccom.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/soundwand.jpg "soundwand")
There's more to this app than meets the eye
I’ve tried a lot of “anyone can make music” apps in the past, and they’ve not always lived up to the hype. That’s why, at first, I didn’t hold out a lot of hope for three-dollar music app Sound Wand – but I should have been more optimistic. Like a real instrument, you need to spend some time learning how it works.
Open Your Ears For Radioline, A Cute Radio App [Review]

Clean. Simple. Radio. Mmmm.
Your iPhone is many things. My iPhone is many things. For each of us, the most important functions will differ. Some people might think it’s most useful as a mobile messenger client, others as a GPS device. For me, one of the most useful functions of my iPhone is that it can also be a radio.
Radioline is an internet radio player app for both iOS and OS X, with a focus on speed and simplicity. Let’s take a closer look.
NotesTab Pro: Nice Idea, But Improvements Needed [Review]

NotesTab Pro and begging "join our mailing list" window. Could have been worse; could have said "Please rate us five stars!"
Do we need any more notepad apps for OS X? Of course we do, what a foolish question. We always need more notepad apps. But if a newcomer to the notepad app scene (what, you didn’t know there was a notepad app scene? tut tut) wants to make any impact, it needs to be really, really good at what it does.
NotesTab Pro is one such newcomer, and although it has some appealing features, it doesn’t offer enough to make it stand out from its rivals.

Burning sensation inevitable; actual flames unlikely
Got a tattoo? Want one? Want another one? Want something unique? Once more, iOS comes to the rescue in the most unexpected way: a one-dollar app that designs tattoos for you. Oh yes.
Google+ App Makes Social Networking Add Up [Review]
![Google+ App Makes Social Networking Add Up [Review]](http://cultofmac.cultofmaccom.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/gplus.jpg "Google+")
My hangouts never look like this
The general reaction to Google’s release of its new Google+ app has been very positive. Lots of people have been saying how good it looks and how nice it is to use.
Yes, it is pretty. Pretty enough to give Google+ the usage boost it seeks? Now that’s a very different question.
