iPhone App Review - Moodagent icon

Moodagent (Free)

Version – 1.0

REVIEW – “Let your mood choose the music!”

iPhone App Review - Moodagent 1
If you’re like me you probably have a lot more music than you actually get around to listening to regularly.  You also probably get tired of programming lists of songs to play.  What if I were to tell you that there was a way to listen to your music library based on the “mood” they set without manually going through iPhone App Review - Moodagent 2your library?  Well now you can!  Syntonetic Media Solutions has just released Moodagent into the App Store, and to celebrate its release it is free for a limited time!


When you open up Moodagent for the first time you will first need to “sync” your library with their database.  What this does is download “profiles” for all of your songs so that Moodagent can help create custom lists based on the preferences you set.  This process takes a little while, especially if you don’t have good internet so I would recommend that you do it while you have access to a WiFi connection if possible.


Once Moodagent was finished syncing it notified me that it was able to download profiles iPhone App Review - Moodagent 3for about 60-70% of my library.  At this point you can either start using the app with the profiles that it did find, or you can head to Moodagent.com and download their free utility which will actually create profiles for the songs that did not already have Moodagent profiles!


Once you have your library synced it is very simple to get started.  At the top of the screen you see five different bars.  Each bar starts out in the middle and represents a different “mood.”  The five moods are “Sensual,” “Tender,”iPhone App Review - Moodagent 4 “Joy,” “Aggressive,” “Tempo.”  To create a new list of songs all you have to do is change these five bars to where you want them.  A list of 25 songs will then be generated based on where you set them.


The new lists automatically start playing as soon as they are generated.  Another great feature of this app is that if you want to create a new list based on the mood, genre, and tempo of a specific track all you have to do is touch the Moodagent logo to the right of that track.  The mood bars will iPhone App Review - Moodagent 5automatically be adjusted to those of the song selected and a new list will be generated.


If you want you can also browse your library to find a specific seed track as well.  There is a little magnifying glass in the bottom right corner of the screen that will take you to a list of all of your songs.  You can quickly browse by Playlists, Artists, Songs, etc. and find the song that matches what you want to listen to.  While Apple’s “Genius” playlists are good, I would venture to say that Moodagent does a better job of selecting songs that have a similar feel because that is exactly what it is designed to do!


The features of this app are worth their weight in gold.  If you have been looking for a simple way to manage your music Moodagent is one of the best solutions I have found.  There are no guarantees how long an app like this will stay free either.  So what are you waiting for? Check out Moodagent today and start letting your music fit the mood!

What to Expect from the iPhone 4 Press Conference today

No Comments »

Just in case you’ve been hiding under a rock for the last month or so, Apple just recently started introducing their newest iPhone, the iPhone 4 into several markets around the world. While the device itself is amazing, and most people that have one would never go back to their old phone, it has a hardware design flaw. It’s antennae is easily interfered with because it is on the outside edges of the phone!

While, at least in my own opinion, the problem seems to be marginal (I get as good or better reception as my old 3GS even while “holding it wrong”) there are still a fair amount of people that have been upset about the problem, some of them even demanding a resolution from Apple.

Ok now onto the news… Apple has planned a press conference for 10pm Pacific time (-8 GMT) today. The only thing that we really know about this press conference is that Apple has confirmed that it is about the iPhone 4. Many people hope that this press conference will mean that Apple is going to do something like give away their “Bumpers.” These seem to fix the antennae problem by covering the antennae with a non-conductive rubber material and would probably cost Apple a lot less than a full-scale recall.

Anyway, there will be several well-known blogs, and even some hard-news sources covering the event live and I’ve included some links below if you’re interested. And while you’re waiting on Apple to get the press conference started we’d appreciate it if you would take a look at some of our latest app postings!

IK Multimedia has come up with a great solution for mobile guitarists. They have released an app called “AmpliTube,” and they are preparing to start shipping an accessory to allow you to plug your guitar into your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad.

The iRig hardware will cost $39.99 and is scheduled to start shipping the first week of July.   The accompanying AmpliTube app comes in 3 different versions which vary from Free to $19.99. The more you pay the more effects and amp models you will get in the app. If you don’t want to pay the full $19.99 but have a couple of pedals you’d like you can also buy them individually via in-app purchases!

IK Multimedia was kind enough to send me a unit before they actually start shipping them at the beginning of next month, and I was blown away! If you’re as excited as I was hearing this news you’ll want to check out my full review and thoughts at http://www.appshouter.com/amplitube-iphone-and-ipad-app-review!

iOS4 releasing today, June 21st!

No Comments »

If you have an iPhone or an iPod touch, chances are you’re sitting at your computer right now waiting and wondering when Apple will release the latest firmware update labeled “iOS 4″! The big day is already here for most (June 21st), but the question is what time will they finally release it?

I thought it would be appropriate to go over what new functionality you’ll find in iOS4, and give some basic information…

How Much is it?

First of all, if you are an iPod Touch user, iOS 4 is still a free update for you! While previously Apple has chosen to charge $9.99 for major updates, this one will be free.

Will it work on my iDevice?

According to Apple iOS 4 will run on all iPhone and iTouch devices except the original iPhone 2G, and the first generation iPod Touch. Multitasking, however, will only run on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, and 3rd generation iPod Touch. This is due to the memory constraints of the older devices according to Apple.

What Does it do?

There are literally hundreds of changes and tweaks in iOS4, but here are a few

of the major things to look forward to!…

  1. Multitasking! – iOS 4 implements a custom version of multitasking that will allow app developers to push certain tasks into the background and keep them running, as well as offer the ability to save “states” to help launch apps more quickly and to take you back to the same state where you left them(again this only works on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and iPod Touch 3rd generation).
  2. Better HTML 5 video support – Video will be able to play from within the browser without launching the “quicktime” window.
  3. Software Orientation lock – While there is no hardware switch for this like on the iPad, iOS 4 will include software support for it when you double tap the home button and swipe left.
  4. iTunes file sharing – iOS 4 includes the ability to sync documents associated with various apps through iTunes for access from your computer. The ability to open up files inside of specific apps like on the iPad is also enabled.
  5. Bluetooth Keyboard Support – People have been waiting for this feature for a long time. This will make mobile document editing much more viable on the iPhone and iTouch
  6. iBooks – Apple introduced the iBooks store on the iPad. iOS 4 opens up the ability to read these books on your iPhone and/or iPod Touch.
  7. New Email functionality – iOS 4 supports threading messages (yay for Gmail users!) and a unified inbox much like in the Mac OS
  8. iPod update – iOS 4 includes several updates to the iPod app, including hte ability to create and edit playlists directly from your device!
  9. Folders – Sort all of your apps into folders using a simple drag and drop interface!
  10. Game Center – Apple’s new gaming network to help you make and connect to friends that play games on their iDevices!

These are just a few of the new features included in iOS 4, so which ones are you most excited about? Do you feel that iOS 4 will live up to all the hype? Leave a comment and let us know what you think!

Apple quietly reveals info on iPhone 4 at WWDC
Tags: announcement, Education, iPhone 4, News, Reference, wwdc
Blog
No Comments »

There have been several reports online recently(1, 2) that Apple confirmed the fact that the new iPhone 4 has 512MB of RAM, which is double the amount found in the iPad and in the iPhone 3GS. Up to this point there had been rumors, but many people believed that the new phone would have the same amount of memory as it’s predecessor.

Apparently several journalists have actually tracked down and confirmed that Apple did in fact tell developers that the new phone has 512MB of RAM. Many people have complained that the iPhone 3G is perfectly capable of multitasking, but the chart below illustrates the significant difference in RAM from the 3G to the new iPhone 4.

Not only does this show us that the newer devices have included more memory to support future features like multitasking, but it also shows us a possible reason that the new “iMovie” app will work only on the iPhone 4 and not on the iPad.

I don’t know about you, but knowing that the new phone has double the memory makes me even more excited about getting one! While I’m sure multitasking on the 3GS is going to be great as well, just imagine how it will work with twice the memory!

I’d love to hear your thoughts. What feature(s) are you most excited about the iPhone 4? Or are you disappointed in what Apple has amounced? Leave your comments below, or email me your comments/questions at david@appshouter.com!
