[AMOBIL.NO] We in by Amobil.no editors tests every week a large number of different applications. Not everything is as good. In order to avoid having to search through large amounts of “junk” we pick every week out the goodies and apps you should steer clear. In addition, we find an app by the rare variety.
Here is the weekly app recommendations:
week recommended:
GeniusScan
Format: iPhone, Windows Phone and Android
Price: Free (Available in the ad-free version with more functionality)
Travel expenses. It is a bother. All receipts must be scanned one by one. As we will have lost half of the trip, especially the receipts that you incurred on official tasks, …
Thank goodness for that cell phones have gradually been equipped with camera
Eventually we also got some apps that make it easier to take pictures of such receipts, even in some bad light and angle. GeniusScan is one such app and is available for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone.

Proper cut
GeniusScan makes it super easy to scan receipts, notes from meetings or other things that are on paper that you want digitally. The files are saved with your notes. You can save multiple images in the same note.
Before saving the images you can choose which sections to be included by pulling the corners. The picture adjusts itself in roughly the right angle. Sharpness and color balance are the auto settings. We like that mostly runs on autopilot in an easy and understandable interface.
images you can send to yourself via email as a PDF. There is also a pro version of the app where you can drop directly to dropbox or similar. Then you also advertising.
So unless you are going to take pictures of LOL cat scan (!), then you can gradually replace the scanner GeniusScan.
Week peculiar:
365days Push-ups
Format: iPhone
Price: Free
It could be that you need to exercise more than key muscles. 365days Push-ups contribute least to do push-ups fun and can get you started. Then you have the least utility in care
Up – down
Put your phone on the floor and press to start the workout. Standard workout is 15 push-ups in one set, but you can set this yourself. One of the coolest with this app is that it can count pushupsene your behalf – either by physically brave haka on the phone (touch) or by bending you over the phone with your upper body (camera).
Tapping her chin worked best if there was bad light to the camera, but in daylight it was okay to not have to press. You can also get medals for push-ups. It’s always nice with a small prize for their efforts.
The only drawback to the app is that it was a bit much hassle. In true Japanese spirit is a bit much and animations may not always understand what to do when and where.
You also need to buy all the extra features in the app, for example, to be able to freely control how many push-ups you want to take.
fact, it is not that significant app does in the free version, but we think that the way the app keeps count of push-ups are nifty enough to warrant mention.
Then there are other push-ups and treningsapper that certainly works better for the pros.
Steer clear of this one:
Art Gate
Format: iPhone
Price: Free
Good intentions do not necessarily lead to good apps. Art gate is an example of this. Seven institutions have joined forces to create an app that can promote learning and art interest among (mainly) young people. Here are several of the major museums in Norway – from the Munch Museum at Henie Onstad Art Centre.
Least Common Multiple
We applaud that museums have joined together under a common label and name – instead of creating their own app application has been given a tasteful and elegant graphic profile. Unfortunately, it seems that art institutions have spent most of the development time to reach agreement.
Dull and heavy
application has not much more containing than opening and a little engaging video with bad sound. A few museums have added responsibilities, but this is too boring and lackluster. And what happened to use functionality of the phone as a GPS or camera.
It also seems a little unclear whether you can use the app before you arrive at the museum, or if it only has value when you are at an art museum.
When the app also counts the 256 MB in download size? ease. That says it all. Steer clear – for now. Think we either go out and counting yellow cars.
Week games
Riddick: Infinity Blade III
Format: iOS
Price: 49 million
The original Infinity Blade, then developed by Gears of War developer Epic Games and Chair Games, was something completely new when it arrived. It was the first mobile game to run on the Unreal 3 engine, and had a picture he had not seen before then.
Since then we have seen a large and very good sequel to Infinity Blade II. Now the trilogy rounded off with a bang.
Anyone who has played one of his predecessors know what they go to. Here you pick, swing, block and stab your way through monsters and enemies of varying size and difficulty. Some whack you almost before they can find her weapon, while others break up the toad flat before you have time to think about your countermove.
The controls in the game works very well, they are easy to learn and gives good response. Weapon Combinations flows for each light, and it’s fun to fight against seemingly impossible odds.
The varying difficulty, however, a major weakness. There are many times you beat your head against a brick wall, and further progress is almost impossible. The flow and progression of the story gets a little disjointed that repeating the same content multiple times and you lose a bit of commitment.
I understand that at times have to play the content again to come to a suitable level. But that by using their own money, skip this tastes a bit sour. Personally, I decided to bite the teeth together and fight on without buying my way again, what you do is up to you. Regardless, Infinity Blade III a good ending to the series.
