After all, so much of what makes those notebooks special is the physical features of the texture and design.įortunately, when you open up this beautiful calendar and planner app, it’s abundantly clear that Moleskine has translated the unique premium feel of its products to the screen. There’s no doubt that bringing an iconic brand of physical notebooks into the digital space can be a huge challenge. The premium pricetag isn’t probably necessary for everyone, but if Twitter on iOS is part of your daily life, there’s no reason to not have Tweetbot 4 on your home screen.-CC 2.

Tweetbot remains the king with the fourth iteration, and if you use it daily, upgrading is a no-brainer. Normally I’d complain, but when I’m this happy with the day-to-day experience, I find myself willing to shell out the cash. But there’s a price for progress, as each iteration of Tweetbot forces you to pay up again for each and every upgrade. It’s so entwined with the way I use Twitter that people often ask me what theme I’m using for the original app, and I kind of pause in confusion. I’ve used Tweetbot for what feels like ages now-I can’t imagine using another client. If you want the ultimate productivity email app, Outlook is it.-CC 3. All in all, Outlook feels just as good as Gmail or Mailbox, and the calendar features put it over the top. Microsoft wants you to use its services and apps, regardless of what device you’re using. It’s all a part of Microsoft’s new Google-inspired strategy to compete for the attention of iOS and Android users. Last week, Microsoft released what could be one of the best email apps out today called Outlook (you may have heard of it before…). Google Calendar is a bright and crisp calendar app that just might make you wish Google was doing all the software design on your iPhone.-LL 4. Fortunately, if you love your iPhone, but want the fantastic design sensibilities of Google engineers we now have the final piece of the complete Google software picture for iOS. Many of the proprietary Apple mobile apps are famously lackluster, which has led to the enormous wealth of third party apps that attempt to replace them. I never thought I’d need a second browser, but now I think it’d be hard to go back.-LL 5. If you use Twitter or Facebook to find articles to read and love filling your queue with lots of articles, Flynx really is the best solution out there.

Fortunately, that kind of user is definitely me. Flynx seems like a browser for a very specific kind of user.

It essentially replaces those built-in browsers in Twitter or Facebook that were made just to avoid having to switch apps. Flynx is a mobile web browser, but not one like the ones you’re probably used to.
