Are you a WordSpy??? Then prove it!

WordSpy is a fun word game where you must find hidden words which are embedded in scrolling text across the screen. As you find more words, the scrolling gets faster and faster adding to the difficulty.

There are several levels that you can play

• Easy – One row of scrolling letters with one hidden word
• Medium – Two rows of scrolling letters with one hidden word in one of the rows
• Hard – Three rows of scrolling letters with one hidden word in one of the rows
• Super-Hard – Three rows of scrolling letters with THREE hidden words total (one in each row). You have to find them all!

There are over 25,000 words included in WordSpy, so you are sure to have plenty of hours of entertainment.

If you are a word lover, looking to find new words, studying for verbal exams, or are looking for some fun and educational entertainment, then WordSpy is for you! If nothing else, you are sure to learn some new words.

For each word that you correctly identify, the words will scroll slightly faster. For each word that you miss, the words will scroll slower. You get three misses before the game is over.

Prank your friends with LookAlike! The ‘facial recognition’ application that allows you to make your friends ‘Look Like’ anyone!

LookAlike is a great way to play a Prank on your friends and get a bunch of laughs in the process. You can take their picture with the iPhone, and LookAlike will pretend to ‘process’ their facial features, looking for a matching person that they look like…The trick is that you are allowed to configure what the resulting match will be before hand!

Here’s how the application works:

1. Double-tapping any of the hidden buttons in the four corners of the screen will allow you to configure the resulting person for that corner.
2. Single-tapping any of the hidden corner buttons will ‘activate’ that corner. The person configured in that corner will be the result of the next LookAlike analysis.
3. Take a picture and begin the analysis…
4. LookAlike will then take several seconds while it pretends to analyze the face of your friend, then it will indicate that your friend’s face matched to the person that you setup for that corner.
5. A few seconds later, LookAlike will show the image of that person from Google Images (which you can also configure by scrolling to the image you want to use)

You can configure multiple corners, and prank multiple friends in a row for more realistic results! If you make a few of the results believable, and the last result absolutely ridiculous, your friends will be rolling on the floor laughing!

I have tried this on many of my friends, and I have had them all laughing hysterically at the results. Try it today!

TimeTrak is a simple and elegant time tracking utility to help you stay organized. A perfect solution for consultants, physical therapists, contractors, or anyone else who has to keep a precise running log of their activities! At the end of the day, with the push of a button, you can have all of your time tracking information emailed to you!

TimeTrak lets you track your tasks like a stop watch. When you start a new task, you simply specify the start time of the task and the tag for the activity. While the task is running, you will see a real-time counter showing the duration time of the activity. When you are done with the task, you simply press a button to end it, and the information is saved. When you are ready to store your task information somewhere else, you can email all the data to yourself right from the application!

You can even use TimeTrak as a calendar, as it allows you to enter tasks that you have scheduled for the future.

In addition to task entry, TimeTrak has multiple ways that you can view your data, including a summary view mode (grouped into future tasks, tasks in the last 24 hours, task in the last week, and older tasks), and a view by date mode. TimeTrak enables you to add, update, and edit the tag of the tasks simply and easily with the swipe or push of a finger.

Here is a list of the great functionality you will get with TimeTrak

• Stop-watch style time tracking with sleek user interface
• View your data either by day or in a summary view. Easily scroll through all of your tasks.
• Email all of your tasks to yourself. You can either email all individual tasks (tag, date, and duration), or you can group by the date and tag
• All previously used tags for your activities are saved for easy entry later. This is great for when you perform the same tasks more than once
• Edit / Delete your tasks right from the views described above
• You have the option to automatically delete your emailed tasks upon application re-start (it will ‘clean up’ your previously emailed tasks)
• An ‘email icon’ is shown on each task row that has been emailed to you. This will make it easier to manage your tasks that you have already emailed.

This application is made for one thing –tracking your time — and it does it very well! If you need a simply utility to track your time, then TimeTrak is for you!
