Preparing for the holidays did not stop iOS-developers release in December a host of new applications for devices Apple. In our monthly collection includes the best of them – what about, for example, the conversion of iPad to an external display for “poppy”, video recording 4K “iPhone” or set of “live” alarm?

Duet Display

This the first of its kind program turns your iPad or iPhone, connected with a normal cable USB, a second display for the Mac. Similar programs to display images already existed, but for their work on iOS device and computer were connected to Wi-Fi, which is why the image on the second display shows the long delays and often of poor quality. Duet Display also works on the cable – just plug in the USB “poppy” tridtsatishtyrkovy connector or lightning. Thus, you do not depend on the availability of Wi-Fi network and connection quality, as well as not to burden your Wi-Fi transmission of video data.

“Mac” with a touch screen for the current moment. However, connecting to a device iPad, you can manage it this way. This can be particularly useful, for example, for artists. However, it is desirable that he “MacBook” was connected to the network, since such a system significantly accelerates the discharge of the battery, and generally spend a lot of computer resources.

In order to reduce the load, you can turn on “saving” mode with reduced twice 30 Hz frame rate on the i-connected device. In addition, iPad with Retina-display screen can make the picture is not pixel-to-pixel, and a resolution of 1024 by 768 pixels. Nevertheless, even in this case the video driver software Duet Display loads, for example, the processor MacBook Air sample in 2012 by 30-40%, which significantly reduces overall system performance. That is not cheap in a good application makes sense to buy a MacBook Pro owners or not the oldest iMac.

Client for Mac is available for free download, the application for iOS have to buy for 900 rubles.

Wire

In 2015, we should not forget about security and privacy on the Internet. Remember the lessons Snowden – can monitor every senseless and merciless. To avoid this, a team of former developers of Skype released in December Wire – new messenger to conduct encrypted communications. The app allows you to make audiozvonki, exchange messages, photos and other information with a group of friends.

Data security program provides technology-through encryption for all data types, including voice and multimedia. Wire offers cross-platform synchronization messages, the ability to add to the list of contacts from your address book smartphone. Also, the application can create groups that accept push-notification when a new message, share and play files from YouTube and SoundCloud thanks to built-in player.

Yomapic

Ultrakam 4k

This app turns the iPhone into a digital camera capable of shooting video in ultra-high resolution 4K (3264 x 2448 pixels). Developers have achieved this result by removing the software restrictions imposed by Apple, and lowering the frame rate when shooting video up to 30 fps. Also had to develop special codecs.

The main drawback of the iPhone as a 4K-camera can be called a limited amount of free space on the drive. Rollers in this resolution really weigh very much. If you have a model with 16 or 32 gigabytes of memory, have to constantly reset the captured clips on your computer to free up memory.

The program is available for owners of the iPhone 5 and later for 618 rubles.

Lingua.ly

The new application for learning foreign languages ​​aims to apply their language skills into practice as soon as possible.

SimCity BuildIt

The legendary town-planning simulator reached the platform iOS. Developers managed to surprise thoughtfully adapt the game to the specifics of the mobile platform, so the game really comfortable and pleasant. The graphics are also not far behind. However, the spread of the game raises questions on the model of “freemium”. After a few days of play without the use of built-in shopping you suddenly realize that you desperately for anything short of money. So if you are going to build a city seriously, get ready to buy virtual currency.

The application is available for free download from the App Store.

Workflow

Users “poppies” have long been accustomed to the utility Automator, allows you to program automatic execution of various sequences of tasks. However, on iOS for a long time nothing with similar functionality was not until I came Workflow.

You can set the program to the whole sequence of actions that it would take on the team. For example, you if you have made four pictures on the camera, the software automatically collects from them “SIFCO” and send you an e-mail. And there are many such algorithms – service automatically displays the most popular among users to help make the decision.

The program is available for download in the App Store for 186 rubles.
