Smart Merge 1When you sync your desktop contacts with your iOS contacts and then throw your Facebook contacts into the mix, you will inevitably end up with duplicates. Just like a physical address book, every time one of your friends gets a new email address or phone number, you end up with multiples from the same person.

Mosaique is one of those apps that transcend traditional puzzle games. With its minimalistic design and innovative gameplay, you'll be drawn into its relaxed structure and simple design. According to the app's summary, colonist engineers on the moon of Vraxis play this game, so you are in good company…(...)

Days 2Whenever I head out on a road trip or drive into the City for a day of record shopping and urban adventuring, I take pictures. If I see a cool sign or some really fancy graffiti, I whip out my iPhone and snap a quick pick. I'm always thinking I'll show these pictures to someone, someday. Most of the time, they never make it past my Apple TV screensaver.

Days – Your Visual Photo and GIF Diary lets you gather all of your daily antics into one collage so that you can share it with others without making them scroll through hundreds of individual shots of your pizza dinner…(...)
