Review: Ulysses Mobile (iPhone-specific review)
Ulysses has long been one of the best text editors on the Mac and their iPad counterpart is a stunning example of high-quality software on a tablet. I love using both of these apps on a daily basis, and they are where most articles you see written here originate. One glaring omission from the

Review: Remember the Milk 4 (It's Amazing)
According to my App Store receipts, I bought OmniFocus in early 2012 and it has been my go to task management app ever since. I own it for iOS and the Mac, and while I have experimented with other task managers since 2012, I'm always quick to go back to OmniFocus. No app

Day One 2 Review
Day One originally launched in March 2011 and it has been on every iPhone and Mac I have owned since then. When you talk about "the best apps on iOS" the conversation has to include this delightful little app. It's been a world class app since it's debut almost

Apple TV (2015) Review: Is it "the future of television"?
The new Apple TV is a very good streaming video player, but it is not the revolution in how we consumer media as a people. Because Apple is Apple and they feel like they have to pitch everything as "the next big thing", their tagline for the Apple TV is "The future

MacID Review
MacID, developed by Kane Cheshire, was released on January 15, 2015, yet it didn't make it onto my iPhone until about a month ago. Oh, how I had been missing out! MacID facilitates a very elegant way to interact with your Mac in a way that is so good, you wonder why Apple

iPhone 6S Plus Review
“The new iPhone X is the best iPhone Apple has ever made” is a silly statement and one that we always hear in iPhone reviews this time of year. Of course it’s the best iPhone ever, it would be pretty embarrassing if it wasn’t! It’s also a little silly to say that

Review: Sony PlayStation Silver Headphones
Sony makes a couple headsets for the PlayStation 3 and 4, and Sony loves to boast about them. With simulated 7.1 surround sound and a built in mic, these headsets seem like a pretty good fit for gamers. The Gold model is $99 and is wireless and the Silver model is $69. However, the

An iPhone Lover's Review of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
Samsung offered iPhone users a 30 day test drive of one of their high-end Galaxy phones for the low, low price of $1. I'm hopelessly curious about devices/apps/services outside of the ones I use, so this was a great opportunity to dive deep into Android once again after being away

Review: Grave Suspicion by Aaron Mahnke
Grave Suspicion excels as a summer weekend read. It’s a tight thriller that keeps things fresh and interesting from start to finish. It’s the sort of book that I feel comfortable recommending to just about everyone.
The story follows Sam, a generally average guy (by his own intent) who has the decidedly non-

Inside Out, You Have To See This Pixar Gem
Almost all of Pixar's films are about growing up in one way or another. Some films hit this more on the head than others, and those tend to be my favorites. Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc, and Toy Story each come to mind as standouts. Inside Out follows in these films' footsteps, and

Running with Apple Watch
I have been using the Apple Watch to track my workouts for the past 3 weeks, and I’ve run it through its paces as a workout companion. I’ve logged 13 workouts (10 runs, 3 walks) both indoors and outdoors. This is easily the most active I have been all year, and it’s

Apple Watch Review
I've known that I wanted an Apple Watch since long before Apple unveiled the Apple Watch last September. I actually owned an HTC One M8 last summer, and was eyeing some of the Android Wear options just hitting the market with much interest. I also owned a Pebble for a few months, so

Review: Bloodborne
Bloodborne is my current favorite game of the year. I truly love this game!
Most people correlate Bloodborne with “difficult” or “hard-as-nails”, but I think those words over-simplify what makes it a great game. Bloodborne demands more of you than most games. It’s a game that punishes you if you don’

Mini Review: Infinit for iOS
Infinit is an app designed to easily share files between your devices. Until today, it only existed on the desktop, so I couldn’t make much use of it. However, they released their iOS app today and the service finally makes sense to me. I’ve been testing the app for the last couple months,

Video Review: The Order 1886
I've never done a video review for the video game before, but I wanted to give it a try this time. I think it turned out pretty well, but this is definitely something that I would have to practice more to really refine. Let me know what you think!

Game Review: Alto's Adventure
Alto’s Adventure is a beautiful, addicting, and challenging endless skier[1] that you should buy…like right now. Seriously, don’t delay, it’s just $1.99.
Okay, how about a slightly deeper dive?
Alto’s Adventure is from Snowmen, the creators of the reminders app Checkmark, and the brand new Shifts app which

App Review: Mail Pilot 2 for iOS
I guess this is email season, because this is the second email app review I'm writing this week. Mail Pilot 2 is a major update to Mindsense's innovative email app for iOS. Back in January 2012, the concept of triage get your emails by swiping them was a new concept (and

App Review: Outlook for iOS
Microsoft released Outlook for iOS today, and it's a really good app. Wow, I can't believe I'm saying this! But it's true, Microsoft Outlook is an email app that scales well from basic email users to those who live in their inbox. Microsoft introduced the app on
