Last week’s best iPhone apps

The Apple App Store is working overtime every week. New apps, updates to existing applications and games appear all the time. You probably don’t notice this much, because most of the programs are not worth downloading. iPhoned therefore separates the wheat from the chaff every Sunday. Here are the best iOS apps, updates, and games from last week.

1. Serania: Path of the Scion

Do you love stories and don’t get intimidated by a lot of text? Then you probably can’t have your fun with Serania: Path of the Scion. This game mainly consists of reading text and making decisions by choosing one of the answers. The story unfolds based on your choices. Speaking of which, Serania takes place in a fantasy world that has been taken over by enemy armies.

You take on the role of an ordinary villager who is being hunted by these soldiers. As if that wasn’t spicy enough, you also try to find out your family history. Only in this way can you do something about the siege of your country. You can try the game for free, but after the first quarter you have to pull the wallet (4.49 euros).

2. Procreate

Procreate, the award-winning iPad graphic design app, made the switch to iPhone last week. So you can also draw, illustrate and design on your phone. The developer has thoroughly overhauled the interface so that all buttons and options fit on the smaller screen.

The iPhone version of Procreate does broadly the same as its bigger brother for the iPad. However, the developer has added some specific functions for the iPhone. including a widget for iOS 14. That way you can access Procreate directly from your iPhone home screen.

3. TechniCalc

Are you professionally busy with numbers, or are you following a technical study? TechniCalc is a new math calculator app that is packed to the brim with features. For example, the app can handle extensive formulas, logarithms, trigonometry and all kinds of units and ratios.

In addition, the app looks very stylish and can handle a wireless keyboard. A nice extra is that TechniCalc works on all your Apple products, including the Apple Watch. In addition, the app has a dark mode, split-screen mode (so that you place the calculator on the right of the window, for example) and many more functions.

4. Oolong

Do you want to get a better grip on your finances in 2021? Then Oolong might be a must. This ‘housekeeping app’ describes itself as the most efficient of its kind and aims to provide a global view of your wallet.

Where other household book apps go into specific categories in great detail, Oolong provides a more global overview. The purpose of the app is to show at a glance whether you can afford that new apartment, pet or vacation. The app does this by calculating your monthly deficit or surplus and spreading this number over the next 24 months.
