iPhone apps: MileBug, Handshake, Chess Pro

  • MileBug - Mileage Log ($7) helps people who drive their own vehicles for business, charity, medical or other reasons track miles travelled in order to receive their reimbursement and/or tax deduction. The application keeps track of all trips made and which category each trip falls under; users may then choose to email any of these records to either themselves or employers.

  • Handshake (Free) allows users to quickly exchange contact information over either a 3G, EDGE or WiFi connection. When near another person using the application one must simply select their name from a list and hit send information. A contact card will then be transfered to the other iPhone/iPod touch with no need for typing.

It allows players to play against a friend in two player mode or face a computer of three difficulty levels, easy, medium or hard. The game also has a save/load feature allowing players to answer a call or move to another task without losing the progress of their game.

  • Brain Jogging ($5) gives users a way of training their response times, their mind and overall improve effectiveness with certain tasks. Exercises included mental arithmetic and memory games that get the brain active. Brain Jogging offers three different levels of difficulty and for each game played a compressive evaluation is given.
