Tom's Hardware

Content great, app lacking Content great, app lacking

Tom's hardware has great content, but the interface to read is poor. On my desktop it chops the bottom part of the article off so I can't read a full article. On my surface, switching orientations causes issues. In that case, I'd rather read it in a web browser.

Borderlands 2 Shift Codes

Cluttered Cluttered

The idea is good, but the implementation can be much better. There's a lack of visual cue to see what I'm looking at. Can't see if a SHiFT code has expired or not (and why would I want to see expired?) There's a orange/red bar at the bottom with no apparent meaning. If it were possible, it would be useful to combine this with a users account to see if shift codes have been used or not. And if I'm a PC user, why would I want to see PS3 and Xbox codes? Finally, what's a premium user and why would I want to pay, to get rid of the ads at the bottom? I think scouring Facebook or twitter from Gearbox might be just as easy.

After installing this application, it asked me for details about my Google account. Why would I need this to read my EPUB offline? I uninstalled this application immediately after without testing it further.

Taptiles

Addictive and well thought out. Addictive and well thought out.

Lovely background music and an addictive, but simple puzzle game. Works best on touch screens. Some parts get very difficult though.

Kindle

After using an Amazon Kindle DX for some time, I had hoped the App would be on par. What I miss most is the bar at the bottom showing where I am (ok easy to swipe in) that also shows me where the next chapter is.
