Many thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks to A for the wonderful present!

And after I got everything set up, I went ahead to do my app shopping.
Here are some of the awesome apps I have on my iPad (and some on iPhone as well).
Some of you have been asking me which app I’ve been using for the photos in my previous blog entry,
I’ve shared that AMAZING app in here too.
Here is a header I made, decorated with pictures from my Instagram!
Follow me on Instagram if you haven’t!

Hope you guys love it!

FLIPBOARD

This is where you can combine Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr and other stuff into one app.
The presentation is absolutely gorgeous too with the pictures displayed in a magazine format.
I always dislike how you cannot scroll the pictures in the Instagram app
(can only see them in thumbnails and click one by one).
Well, with this app, you can do it now!
Find out more about this app here.

美图秀秀

This is the app where I do all my photo editing.
Photoshop has always been too cheem for me, so this one is totally up my alley.
So easy to use and there are lots of functions to play around with!

Here are also some new photos I took of my new knitted cropped top from The Outliers!
The colours of the photo are edited by this app.
Oh! And this app helps you make collages too!
I love this top and I’m looking forward to pairing it with my new sheer long skirt! 😀

PAPER by FIFTYTHREE

This app is recommended to me by Evonne.
“THANKS DEAR!”
I love this app because I can now doodle, design banners for my blog, write and scribble on it!
You will have to buy more tools and brushes though because the free version only comes with the basic pen tool.
Each tool costs 1.99USD by the way, but it’s worth it!
Check out what I doodled!
I wanted to check out another cafe called The Coffee Daily today so I drew this banner.
(The cafe was closed when I got there today though, damn. Will try again tomorrow)

PHOTOSYNC

This app is great if you have a lot devices and you wanna share pictures among the devices.
The best thing is, the app doesn’t require you to transfer photos using the ftp way,
all you need to do is drag and drop!
Easy peasy.

KEYNOTE | PAGES | NUMBERS

OK, I know I’m cheating here but this three is a package.
Welcome to the classier version of the good ol’ Microsoft Office.
This three apps works very well on the iPad and if you’re using a Mac,
do use it on your computers too!
Rocks balls.

FUNSHION

I l.o.v.e Funshion!
I was a huge fan of it when I was on my PC, and I was really upset when I couldn’t use it anymore on Mac.
Now that it’s available on iPads, I am thrilled!
I tried it out and it works really well.
The live streaming is fast and there are lots of movies, drama, variety available on the app.
It works on both WIFI and 3G, try it out!
Oh, the app is in Chinese though.
The movies are not dubbed though, and they all come with Chinese subtitles.

iTELEPORT

If you are a teacher, or if you wanna control your computer at home when you’re out,
OR if you wanna spy on your kid’s computer while you’re at work,
say HELLO to the amazing iTeleport app!
You can connect to your computer (after you install it on your computer as well), control it,
and see your desktop on your iPad or iPhone.

E I G H T
AIRBNB

This app would be perfect for you if you’re a seasoned traveller and you’re a fan of Bed & Breakfast.
The app is easy to use and it’s easy to scroll through the various rooms available.
The best thing is, the app will also send you notifications and reminders with your room details
when your travel dates are approaching!

PHOSTER

This is the app I am currently addicted to!
There are templates you can choose from and you can make all your photos look like kick ass posters!
Check out some of the pictures I’ve done with this app so far!

iPHOTO

This is one app A swears by.
You can almost do anything to your photos on this app, and it’s as good as Photoshop!
The app costs 4.99USD though, but if you do a lot of editing to your photos
and wanna do it on-the-go, then say HI to the iPhoto app!

  3. Omigod the Phoster app so nice! I don’t have an iPad but this post made me very excited lol mad. Anw, you can scroll in Instagram on the phone!

    When you’re looking at a person’s profile, on the top center you’ll see an icon with 9 small squares forming a square, that’s the default thumbnail view (the one that you have to tap on to open the photos individually), but right beside it you can has the icon with three parallel lines, tap on that one and you can scroll through all the photos! ^^

    You can scroll through instagram by using the list icon on the top of the screen. There would be the thumbnail icon and a list icon, use the list one for easier browsing on instagram! 🙂
