As you can see on the video, the refrigerator has a webcam on it that you can control with your iPhone. It allows you to point the fridge in the right direction to shoot you your drink.

iPHi — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 02:04:05 +0000

BugMath is a new app available at the app store to help teach your kids basic math skills that they may be having trouble with. The app was developed in Singapore, where their math curriculum has consistently ranked in the top three in the curricula worldwide. The app uses the same principles that are taught in the classrooms.

Yvong Foong is the CEO of Zixxe Pte. Ltd., which is the parent company of the brand that came up with this app, TotsMobile. She stated that, “BugMath approaches mathematics from different angles – particularly through a story that engages and the systematic practice of math skills through the ease of repetition. The goal is to boost kids’ confidence while having fun!”

The whole time kids are using the app, they will be playing as Ug-ug, a friendly alien that crash-landed on planet Aliennz, which is completely inhabited by bugs. Kids can help Ug-ug escape the bugs by playing the games and getting the questions right.

BugMath has 5 fun games your kids can play- Bug Attack, Counting Game, Big and Small, Plus and Minus Bugs, and Matching. The app is for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad and runs on iOS 4.1 or later. BugMath is $1.99 and is available in the app store under the Education section.

Apps That Make Christmas Shopping Easier

iPHi — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 21:03:57 +0000

Here are a couple apps that can make your Christmas shopping a little easier than it was last year. The first one is called ScanLife. This app changes the camera on your iPhone to a barcode scanner. You can then scan the barcodes of items and compare their price at the store to their price on amazon.com. The app then takes the price of the item and shows the prices from others stores, as shown on milo.com. Coupons.com is also checked to see if there are better prices available to you. It is available in the app store for free.

The other app that will help you with your Christmas shopping is called Black Friday. With this app, you can look and see items that will more than likely be on sale for the upcoming holidays. Black Friday gets you ahead of other shoppers because it has information that many people have to wait to see until they get their newspapers. This app is free, as well.

Both apps are good ways to help you relax a little during your holiday shopping, so go download them today! They’re free, so why not?

Breast Cancer iPhone App

iPHi — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 04:54:00 +0000

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. What better way to be aware than to have an app on your iPhone that reminds you to do your routine checks?

The iBreastCheck for iPhone was designed to better women’s understanding of and give them information about the disease. It allows the user to set an alert to do routine examinations. Dr. Sarah Rawlings, the head of policy at Breakthrough Breast Cancer, said, “While most breast cancers are in women aged over 50, a woman can develop the disease at any time so it is vital that all women are breast aware.”

A survey done by Breakthrough Breast Cancer showed that nearly half of the women who were questioned did not examine themselves on a regular basis. Also, according to the survey, 53% of women didn’t know that drinking alcohol can increase their risk of developing breast cancer, 47% didn’t think gaining weight will increase the risk, and lastly, 44% didn’t know they could reduce their chances of getting the disease by exercising regularly.

You can download the iBreastCheck iPhone application for free from either the iBreastCheck website or from iTunes.
