The "My Favorite iPad Apps" Thread

We Rule

We Rule newbie question:
Do you need to wait for an invitation to visit a friend's kingdom?
I don't see anyone's kingdom on my "social" map 😕

Figured this out . . . Never mind 🙂

BTW, this is a cool game. Anyone who likes Cafe World or Farmville would probably like We Rule 😀
 
All I need is 2 iPads and a microphone!

OMG. If DJ's don't jump on these. lol
I was in the lab today looking for more music apps and ran into BabyScratch!
Cool app. The sounds are amazing. Old School.

The dev has another one that lets you load your own sounds called FlareScratch, but the skin is butt ugly.

An iPad ready version with a Technic 1200 Skin would be really nice to have in the studio!

I have been too occupied with finding new apps to use any one app very long, 🙂 but I really love Netflix and the Kindle app so far.

I keep looking at Scrabble but can't bring myself to buy any $9.99 app yet (too many good free ones!). I was hoping there would be some "lite" version or some scrabble-like game that's free or 99 cents. The funny thing is, the amount of time I have spent looking for this is worth far more than ten dollars. Anyway, if anyone knows of a free or cheap knock-off version of scrabble, let me know. Thanks!

I just use the iPhone version that I bought over a year ago in 2x mode since it's cheaper and runs on both just fine.

ClaireL,

It's 'meh'...I can't use the onscreen joysticks very well...not hard points or tactile feedback. I got it when it first came out for iPhone (free). The graphics are pretty good for a small app.

They have the COD: Zombies out now...but have't messed with it..since I sucked so hard at the original.

Now, if we were talking COD on the XBOX 😎
MW2 5th Level Prestige Level 70
Silenced M16 and AT4 are my little friends 🙄
My favorite matches : HC-TDM
My clan tag : OTC (Old Timers Clan)
My motto : "If we play I might not win..but you'll know you've been kissed -
Noobtoobers suck pipe" 😱

Yes! That app is bad ass. My friend at work can't put it down.

A Zip disk!? Talk about old school. And right next to an iPad.
 
This is an addicting Free App called Deep and is Free for one week, so check it out. It is for the iPhone/touch BUT when I doubled the graphics it looks just fine and is fun. You have to move your iPad so your character who is falling down a deep hole or well, doesn't hit the walls or obstacles causing him to die You can try to get him to touch coins as he falls for points.

bought Scrabble this weekend and played it with my girlfriend using the iPhone tile racks. Very cool app! I got $10 worth of fun out of it over the weekend alone. Will be cool bringing it to my family's house this weekend and showing it off.

One gripe about the Scrabble app is the lack of online multiplayer. Words With Friends is an amazing app because of it... not sure why Scrabble is lacking this ability. It makes it from being a perfect app.
 
Here's a killer notes app:

Search the store for School Notes Pro

It's free right now, so get it while it's hot.....
 
AIR VIDEO! If there is one app you must buy it is this one! Everything works perfectly and has saved me $200, because I don't need to buy an 64gb or 32gb iPad, as there is no more point for me. Since I can use Air Video for watching movies.

Goodreader by a longshot. I actually feel bad for only paying .99 for it.

I'm frustrated beyond belief that I can't import iWork '08 files into the iPad, so I have to rather ironically copy them into Office first and then transfer them onto my iPad. So I'm slightly peeved at Pages and Numbers so far.

Have you tried Downloader?
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downloader-download-view-share/id318884764?mt=8
Let's you download and edit in iWork...

It's not a complete solution, but it's getting there.

I bought Words with Friends. Playing with strangers who take days to make a move or finish a game isn't too much fun. I'm playing with someone now on a game that started over a week ago. 22 letters left and painfully counting down the time.
I might get Scrabble and play against the computer or friends.

Wow, that does sound like a terrible idea. Won't be buying that one, thanks.

Do you not have friends with iPhones? I haven't played a stranger yet. But I have 8 games going with friends and family and we make a few moves each day in each game. Keeps it fun and lively.
 
It's not about friends vs. strangers for me, it just sounds about as interesting as watching paint dry. To each their own.
