Decim8 App Turns Art Digital 

I discovered the Decim8 app from my friend @utmostfrog'sInstagram feed. He was posting the most intricate and detailed art pics and I followed the scent to Applifam, which is an Instagram andTumblr site that posts a photo per day to which people make edits to the original and repost. It's very interesting to see what people post.  There is some really beautiful art and I'm including those screenshots in this album so you can see this brilliant underground world of art and creativity being made from our phones right now!  Get Decim8 here for iPhone:https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/decim8/id392720563?mt=8 Follow @applifam on Instagram.

It's All In A Name...App

  This App is weirdly right on the money with much of their descriptions! Type in your name or your friend's names and see what the deeper meaning of the name pattern suggests. I'm not in love with the ux and ui of this app but the accuracy of the name descriptions is rather impressive. This app is made by a name society in Canada called the @kabalarians and their online webpage offers further name descriptions. What does your name mean?

Repix is a well made art app for adding brush strokes to your photos. With a stylus pen you can get in there for all the itty bitty details and add your unique signature. I like this app because it's ux is clean and pretty and it offers photo detailing that you can't get on other apps. Get it on iPhone here.

The Facetune app really ups the game when it comes to taking pics with your phone. It's the first app I've seen with an incredibly good ui for editing your spots and wrinkles if you want to get spruced up before you post to your Instagram. It gives you the editing ability that was previously only possible for pro photoshop wizards. But this app covers it all. It will smooth your skin, allow you to add eyebrow and eyelash color, gloss your lips, defocus the other bits, and you can even raise your cheekbones or widen your eyes. This app brings photo editing to a whole other level, but word to the wise: it's easy to get carried away with this app and end up looking like a plastic alien! Enjoy: Get it on iphone here.  Not on Android yet.

ibis has just released an app that tracks your sleep patterns and turns it into artwork. You set the alarm and then put the phone somewhere in your bed (which deserves an essay unto itself), and then go to sleep. In the morning you wake up to a visual description of how you slept. I tried it out last night and the green art piece below shows how that went--very accurately perhaps. This app is fun to experiment with, at least to see how you roll. 

Get it for your iPhone here.

It's feels so good to be healthy. The GoodGuide app is a must for conscious products that protect your health, your home and the environment. This product guide also gives you the social impact your making with each purchase. Put your money where your heart is with this app for everyday purchases. They make it easy to scan the product, look it up, and find better alternatives if you suddenly discover your favorite lipstick is not protecting animal welfare. Honestly, this is a good one to have so you can learn about the products you use every day and make good social and economic decisions.
