Doing Good Works – iPhone App Review

Doing Good Works (Free)

Version – 1.1

Review – “Learn to be a better person with this free app!”


If you’ve ever wanted to change things for the better, but felt powerless to do so, you might want to check out the Doing Good Works app for your iPhone. This app is a book that packaged into an easy to access app for free! It has some basic tools to help you navigate through it quickly, and it offers a link to their website where you’ll find more information about the book and it’s Author.


The app starts up pretty much instantly and offers a couple of different options at the menu screen that pops up. If you touch anywhere on the screen that is not a button you’ll start reading the book either at the beginning, or if you’ve been reading it before, at the place where you left off when you were reading it last.


In the center of the screen you’ll notice two small buttons: “Chapter Select,” and “More Info.” Touching the chapter select button will bring up a scroll bar at the bottom of the screen with a list of all the chapters that are available in the book. To skip straight to a chapter all you have to do is select it with the wheel and then touch the top half of the screen. If you touch the more info button you’ll shown a screen that basically directs you to the website for the book. You’ll find a variety of information, as well as find out how to purchase physical copies of the book if you’d like to give one to somebody you know.


The book reading interface is pretty simple, although it is a little different if you’re used to the interface of most book reading apps such as the Kindle app or the iBooks app on the iPad. Instead of turning pages from left to right, in this app you scroll down as you read the book. Something that is pretty nice though is that the book is separated into the actual physical pages of the book. In most electronicformats the “pages” are determined by what font size that you are reading the book at.


Another thing that I did notice is that, because the book is divided into the actual pages from the book, that the font is extremely small in portrait mode. Thankfully the latest update for the app will allow you to read it in landscape mode so that you can zoom in a little more on the text. It’s still a little bit smaller than I would have liked but it is definitely readable at this size.


Overall, the message of the book seems to be positive. It focuses a lot on taking an honest look at what you have and at what you can give easily without much effort. I have not read the entire book, but what I did read seems to be pretty on target. If you’ve always wanted to make a difference in the lives of others, but never really sat down and thought out how then what are you waiting for? Grab a copy of this normally $14.99 book from the App Store for free!
