App review

My app was called pages you could use it in art, or just to snaz up an assignment. It is used to make posters, cards, or other documents. A drawback would be that it isn't easy to download pictures because you can only get them from photo library on you device and it wouldn't let me get pictures from google images so I couldn't get any pictures on the poster that I was making. And a good thing is that you can print what you create as long as you have wifi, and it doesnt need wifi if you are just playing around on it, and I also like how it lets you create and design your own and it isn't just one design.

App review

* all the different effects it gives you a lot of variety to chose from
* you can take any picture and make it your own by putting your own personal effect on it cause of all e things that this app can do with a picture.
*you can take any picture and put any not one effect but plenty of anything you want
:( would be some of the effects don't work all the time and it really makes you

Overall: I really like this app it gives you a lot of great effects to use . I really like it cause it let's you put your own personal touch on it and it really makes things standout. What I mean by this is it if you put certain effect on it you an make the words stand out or face. It makes. Everything look so cool and the only problem I had would have been the rotate feature casues sometimes it doesn't work or it doesn't sta where you want it too.

Name of app: I brainstorm

Subject: Lang. Science history

Three stars:
*handy tool that you can use without alot of effort
*very easy to use and figure out
*use it for just about any subject


One wish:
:( I wish that there was away to make the writing on the sticky notes bigger that way that it is easier to see and read


Overall: this app is very handy. It helps to keep you thoughts in order and organized. You could use this for example when you write a speech, you could write all your ideas down on separate sticky notes, and then go through them and put them in the proper order. It is just the same as taking notes but you could move them around and delete the ones that where not relevant to the topic. You could also use it for science and history because you would be able to take notes. I think that this's app would be mostly for people who can spell and need to take notes or brain storm about a particular thing.

App Review

HT Recording
This app is useful for many subjects like music, language, and French for recording music and recording some ting you need to remember and you can go back and listen to it again.
This app does things like record you voice or sounds you can edit your voice to a different pitch or if you had to add some thing to your recording you can add on to any of your last recordings, also it picks up the surround sound/background noise.
3 things I liked about this app is one you can record Evan after you already record something. Second you can share your recording with other people. Third also I liked that you can sort your recordings in order. A thing I would add is it would be really cool if you could play your recording backwards.
Overall this app is pretty awesome.

App

My Bruche

The app my brushes allows you to draw anything on your I-pad.

* You can choose any colour to draw with that you choose , you can even change that shade or brightness or the darkness
**You can pick from a variety of different brushes even brush sizes, thickness or thinness, or you can pick the different type ofbrush you want to use
*** It allows you to zoom in or zoom out and you can even pick the background that you want
:( I wish that if you were to shake the I-pad then it would erase it all and I also with that you could add a picture into your creation

Overall I give this app 4 stars because the app isn't as well made as I wanted it to because there are a few things that i wish the did have and I have seem better art apps that have my wishes and almost the same things on it as this app did. This app is Avery good app fording art because of all the different utilities is has. So this app is probably on my top 3 list and would pic it first or second.

App Review

Name of app: Merriam Webster Dictionary

Subject: Language

What it does: The Merriam Webster Dictionary allows you to search up word(s) when your on the go. It also allows you to be able to get the word(s) you are searching to be played back to you

* If you can't talk you can search for word(s) using "Dragon"
* Helps you find word(s) very quickly
* If you can't talk it can pronounce the word(s) for you
:( When you search word(s) using "Dragon" it takes to long to load when your in a rush

Overall review: The overall review from me to this app has to be that's it awesome. This app is awesome because most dictionary's don't allow you to get the word(s) played back to you on the app it's self, usually if your able to get the word(s) played back to you it would usually open something else on the Internet and it takes for ever to load. Also this app is awesome because there is thousands of words. That is what I thought on the overall review because of these things that's why I thought this app is awesome!

Book creator

I was rating the app book creator it's subject area was Language and I thought it was a very great app that has great abilitys. On this app you can make your own book about anything you want,and it allows you to make it as long as you want and import pics within seconds. It is very fast and easy to do for kids of any age. it is also fun to use and can be shared with others. I would recommend this app to all readers and wrighers of all ages. I would give this app 4 1/2 stars. I love how it is easy to add things like pics, and almost everything elts one wish would be that there was better graphics

Comic Life!!!!!!!!!!!!!

App: Comic Life

Subject Area: Can be used for any subject.

What it does:
* You can make cool comics!
* You can use it for education purposes!
* It makes your that you put in a lot more interesting!
:( If you animate stuff!

Overall Review:
Overall I think Comic Life could be useful because say you need to make a project instead of drawing a comic you could use Comic life to make it look even better and you can even import images from the internet. It is also good to use for fun and make up cool different comics.

Name of the App: Google Earth


Subject Area : History,Geography,Language


What it does:
*. I like how you can have and overview of pretty much anywhere on earth
*. if you were going on a Vacation you could use Google Earth to see what it is like there before you leave
* I love how most of the areas you search are clear and you can see all the features of the earth
:(. I wish when you search for an area that it would come up with it in stead of it saying "not found".

Over all Review: I think this app is very handy and it fairly easy to use. It is for all age. If you where doing a project and need to find the area or describe the landscape you could just search it and it will bring you to the ait is a very cool app. I would probably give it 4 out of 5 stars if we hade to rate it. I highly recommend this app for anyone who has or is buying an iPad to iPod.

Review of the App Show Me

I did the app Show Me. I think it would Be useable for school uses. First I think it could be used to think about pictures and stuff. So people could use this app to interactively write their thoughts on a picture or photo, so it could be used for areas such as language. It also might work for certain types of art (Drawing shapes). With Show me you can take or choose pictures, draw lines, and erase. A star would be that you can choose a picture. Another star is that you can draw on it. The third star is that you can just clear the board instead of having to erase it all. A wish would be that you can move the pictures more easy. An over all would be about a 8 out of 10.

Reviewing Apps for the iPad

Connected to this post you will find links to student reviews of the applications we have been using for the past month on our class set of iPads. Hopefully these will help other users discover new and useful apps, and also save time, avoiding apps that are not very helpful. Enjoy!
My name is blily bob

The app that I revived was called NFB. This app was basically all about videos that people post. You can watch videos about history, science, kids videos and many more. If you look at the bottom go the app you will see five catagories. These catagories are featured, channels, kids videos, search, most viewed, favorites, and watch later.If you go to a video you have the choices of adding the videos to your favorites, watching the video, saving it so you can watch it later, learning more about the video, or seeing the related videos. You can post the videos to facebook, twitter, or mail the video to someone. If I had to change something about this app it would be that people would have to actually post a video that has actuall info to it instead of just posting a video that is totally random. I like how you can search for videos instead of you having to search look through all of the videos until you find one you want to watch. I also like how you can select to watch the video later so you don't have to go through all th videos later. I think we would be able to use this app in science or history so we can see if there are any videos about the subject be are on. Overall I would give this app 4 stars

App for ipad

Name: my calculator Subject area: math. What it does three stars and a wish. Star you can use it as a real calculator Star you an edit it and make it like a colorfull one or black and white. Star you can edit back round to so you can make it a different colour evry day. Wish. The top area were the # go you can't edit that so that sucks. Overall I like this app I like that you can edit most things but I dont like it when I tried to edit the area were the # go and it did not work it sucked so I like this appand I hope you try it thanks.
