Readers’ App Reviews – June 2014
Check out apps released by fellow readers this month – from a brain testing game, to a must-have app for students! By Ryan Poolos.
Uni
Uni is a student’s best friend. Uni offers a weighted grade calculator, reminders for classes and asignments, and a snapshot graph view of how you’re doing so far in each class.
With Uni you’ll never wonder what you grade is as teachers implement complicated weighted grades. Just input the scale and add your asignments. You’ll get reminders before asignments are due and before classes begin.
You can come back and put in your grades to see your current class grade and see which classes need extra attention on the beautiful graphs.

Shifty – Calendar Assist
Shifty makes it easy to set up your calendar with recurring schedules that might not be the same everytime.
The built in calendar lets you setup recurring events easily but only if they’re the same day each week or month. Shifty lets you quickly create events with the same name and information but on completely seperate days.
Simply tap each day you’d like to add an event. Then enter information about the recurring events all at once. Export to your favorite calendar, including iCloud shared calendars so your family and friends can keep up.

Honorable Mentions
Each month tons of our readers submit awesome applications they’re made for me to review. While I give ever app a try I don’t have time to write about them all. These are still great apps. Its not a popularity contest or even a favorite picking contest. I enjoy getting glimpse of the community through your apps. Take a moment to check out these great apps I just didn’t have time to share with you.
