Which code were you looking for? I might have some extra Charlie Brown codes if that's the app you wanted.

Yeah it was, and afterwards I tried pocket booth and sonic and all those were taken too. I have PM's if you're feeling generous.

So is iMovie the app I want for low effort vid making and futzing around, or is there something better out there?

Is Game Your Video still free?

I downloaded 1 Second Everyday and it hung for AGES "loading my photos" or whatever. Eventually I killed the app (it'd been 15 minutes and I do NOT have much photo roll content, let alone videos.)

Anyhoo, in restarting the app it claims I have no video content on ANY day (and I do).

Any way to make it rescan my photo roll?


Edit
(deleted app and am re-installing. Hoping that helps...)

That worked!

I thought about buying this app but then read the reviews which were all talking about stuff like this. Glad I dodged that bullet.

e: welp, whaddya know.

Awesome. Yeah, whenever I'm driving on 394 in Minneapolis, I always smile when I see those freeway signs for Xenia Avenue that were in the background of the scene outside the restaurant where Jerry Lundegaard is explaining how his wife got "kidnapped."

There's this app called AppGratis that features paid apps that are dropped in price to free "for 24 hours"; I just got Angry Birds Rio for free on its list of previous deals, which usually are still free for a while after.

Didn't it get pulled?

Yeah, it did. I find AppGratis a little less convoluted. I got AppShopper before it was pulled and my search criteria when browsing was basically what AppGratis does anyway. It's a good app and it's free, just try it out.

No, just free, because I'm a cheapass, so it suits me perfectly. The only app I've ever bought is Sleep Cycle.

Question Mark Mound posted:

Anyway, Vine looks neat, but it's missing some really obvious stuff that would've made it awesome, like front-facing camera options or the ability to record in chunks throughout the day. Or, worst of all, being able to save a video for later uploading if you don't currently have internet access.

Regarding recording in chunks, can't you just press the home button and come back to it later? I agree with everything else though.

I will say this about Apple's native maps app, short of the podcast app, it's probably the worst performing app on my iPhone.

There are times when it just locks up for handfuls of seconds at a time. And scrolling around isn't smooth, but instead nonreactive, and after a few seconds it catches up.

And this is where Data is fast and in abundance.

Maybe it's the provider. Do you have AT&T? This happens to me from time to time too. Plenty of LTE to go around where I live too.

I'm late on this, but I'm a fan of Articles. The universal version is $5, but if you just want the iPhone version, it's only $3. It's been my favorite Wiki app for years and well worth the measly few bucks.

Just bought this awesome, awesome app. Hopefully I never get an iPad because I got the iPhone only version.

I like wunderground for radar, but their highs and lows are usually off by 5 degrees where I am. Also their popups showing county by county snow/rainfall is an ugly block of text they get directly from the NWS.

Wow. Simply amazing. The hour-by-hour scroll down function is amazing, and seeing that today I have a "chance of rain" followed by "rain" it was even more amazing to watch.

Why can't I use dictation on the Facebook message app? The button for it is grayed out. I've googled this a bunch of times to make sure it's not some setting that I have turned off or something, but I couldn't really find any answers.

Anyone else actively using Mailbox?

I am finding more and more that I will NOT be notified I have an email unless I open the app and look. What the poo poo is that all about?

Notification settings are accurate. It USED to tell me.

Anyone else?

I think it's just overall iffy. It still works fine for me. I have a special tone for when I get an email in my default mail app, so when I hear it, I just open Mailbox and pull down to refresh. I don't have to do this that often though.

I think you might mean "burned in" or something like that. They'd be like open captions, which, as opposed to closed captions, cannot be turned off.

AirDrop only works between same OS devices right now: iOS to iOS or OS X to OS X. I'm not sure if that's going to change with Mavericks.

So my iPhone still won't be able to airdrop with my MacBook come iOS 7? Guess I'll give the app a try if I'm understanding that correctly.
