Tips & Tricks - iPhone Secrets - App Review



The App reviewed here is iPhone Secrets Lite, the free taster version.

This could be the place to find some real gems...

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
The home screen is split into a number of areas, which give you access to various information, or information from a variety of access points.

iPhone Secrets Lite
This is the information that you have been looking for. Each topic is illustrated and well explained, as well as being conveniently grouped into sections.

News
This is basically a selection of 'Apps of the week' .

Favorites (sic)
This is an excellent place for you to shortcut those little tricks that you have either found particularly helpful, or that you need to revisit.

Introduction et al
This is the whole of the information from this limited edition of Tips and Tricks, but accessed by subject heading.

Search box
Find the information you want without the need to trawl through the whole lot.

Cost
The basic App is free and sponsored by advertising. This includes a splash screen every time one opens the App, as well as a two line text advertisement at the top of every screen. There is also an opportunity to upgrade to get more 'secrets'.

Indispensability
This depends on how you like to get your information. The App is undoubtedly particularly useful when you do not have Internet access and are looking for a shortcut.

Dependability
There's not really anything to go wrong.

Security
There are no major concerns, although any individual tip can be shared of Facebook, Twitter, or via email.
