WiFiPhoto is an alternative to syncing your photo's from your iPhone via iTunes. Plus its a LOT faster!
You can add
pictures from your camera roll by simply tapping on them to activate the red tick. Click as many as you want and then click done at the top.
Then all the selected photo's appear in a list. At the bottom is a URL link to your photos. Open your web browser on your PC and enter the address.
After going to the link in your web browser the following page appears. Click each image individually and download them, or click the download zip button, and download them all in a compressed zip file.
Its fast and effortless. Unlimited photo's, no quality loss and only 59p. Another app you'll never know how you lived without!

Air Mouse allows you to control your laptop/pc/mac with your iPhone. Acting like a mouse you can control the cursor, right and left click, scroll, and thats just the beginning!
Air mouse was recommended to me by a friend who had found it for 59p in the app store. It allows control of the mouse via 2 different ways
This is the trackpad. It works in the exact same way as the one on a laptop. Touch it to move the cursor around the screen. Touch the arrows at the bottom and scroll your finger up and the down the screen and you have a scroll function. The buttons to the left and the right of the scroll are your left and right click.
The Keyboard is fully functional, allowing CTRL, ALT and the WINDOWS key for extensive functionality of your computer. Shake your phone up and the keyboard appears. Shake it down it is disappears. Press the arrow key on the keyboard (Top Right) and we move on.
This is the function screen. Using the computer software that coincides with the app, you can change the functions keys to represent different programs. For instance, itunes, firefox, safari etc. Clicking the appropriate button will open the program on the computer that its associated with.
The buttons at the bottom can control programs on the computer. The arrows represent forward and back for instance in firefox. The home key will take you to the browsers home page. The enter key will do the same as if you had pressed enter on the actual computer keyboard.
The button at the top right of the screen switches the trackpad, the scroll in now directly in the middle and a lot bigger.
Turn the iPhone landscape and you get a wide trackpad. The left and right clicks are at the bottom and the scroll function is on the right side.
This is another function screen, this one controls the a web browser with a series of buttons.
Back, Search, Home, Forward, Refresh, Stop and Favourites.
The second way of controlling the computer is via the "air mouse". It uses the accelerometer built into the iPhone to move the cursor around the screen. Very tricky to get the hang of, but once you've got it, it works amazing well.
Currently this app is only 59p. It would criminal to miss out. Its taking pride of place on my iPhone, and although it won't be used too often. Its there when i'm sat on the sofa and my laptop is on the other side of the room hooked up to the tv and i need to pause the movie.

When I heard rumours that firefox for the iPhone was nearly here, I decided to check out what other browsers are available on the app store..
I came across perfect browser 2.
Reading through the features it sounded amazing! Tabbed browsing, claiming to be faster than safari. Fooling web pages into believing it was an actual browser; no more cruddy mobile sites.
Priced at 59p I gave it a whirl.. It's not quite the amazing browser it made itself out to be.
It's slow, clunky and does not like remembering passwords or history.
Tabs are slow and do not like being closed. Facebook made the browser freak out.
It's not a safari killer.. But use it if you fancy a change. It tries to hard to be safari. You can't beat the best.. So why try?

Apple has released an update for the iPhone today. If your not on a good broadband speed be warned. Its over 3oomb.
This update contains bug fixes and improvements including the following:
- Resolves sporadic issues that may cause iPhone not to wake from sleep
- Resolves intermittent issue that may interrupt cellular network services until restart
- Fixes bug that could cause occasional crash during video streaming
Nothing visually changed as far as i can see. Was hoping for better battery life update tbh.
