Mac Apps
We’ve collected the top five reviews, roundups and how-to articles from across the AppStorm network in January. Whether you’re interested in Mac, iPhone, or Web apps, there’s bound to be something you didn’t spot over the course of the month.
Now would be a good time to explore a part of the AppStorm Network you’ve never seen before! Don’t forget, you can always keep track of the whole network via the AppStorm Dashboard.
A big thank you to everyone who entered our Cocktail competition last week. We’ve picked the five lucky winners, and I’m pleased to announce that they are:

I’m pleased to announce that we have five full licenses of Cocktail to give away this week. Cocktail is a great way to gain easy access to some fairly complex system settings, and there’s plenty of information about the application in our in-depth review posted last week.
Entering is very simple. All you need to do is follow our new site on Twitter (iPhone.AppStorm), and post your Twitter username in the comments. The competition will run until Monday 8th February, and we’ll be selecting the five winners at random.
Good luck, and stay tuned to find out if you’re a winner!

Apple’s System Preferences are fairly extensive, and certainly allow you to quickly alter the most common settings related to your Mac. Though this is perfect for most users, occasionally it becomes necessary to dig a little deeper into your system configuration.
This is where Cocktail comes in. It’s a standalone application that provides all manner of advanced options for you to configure – everything from how the interface of various apps behaves, to adjusting Spotlight, Time Machine, and emptying caches.
We’ll be taking a look at just how powerful this little utility is!
We’ve been waiting, preparing and speculating about this product for – quite literally – years. Shrouded in secrecy, it’s been the main focus of the Internet rumour mill for far too long. Today, Apple finally unveiled the product they’ve been working on – The Apple iPad.
In this article, we’ll be outlining several of the most important and impressive features of the device, and getting you fully up-to-speed (complete with some gorgeous pictures!). Are you as excited as we are? Read on for all the details!
Welcome to our coverage of Apple’s “Latest Creation” press event. We’ll be collating news from across the web, and keeping you updated in real-time here. Discussion is open so click “Make a Comment” below and, if it’s good, we’ll post it for everyone else to read and respond to!
Today we’re going to be taking a look at several audio recording applications for OS X. Although GarageBand has become the bundled application for sound recording, we’ll also be investigating a number of smaller and more specialised pieces of software.
If you ever need to record audio – be it for a podcast, interview, radio broadcast, or for any other reason – some of these apps may be particularly interesting!
Thank you to everyone who entered our competition to win a copy of the excellent ColorSchemer Studio. It would be great to give you all a license, but unfortunately we had to pick three winners.
The results are in, and I’m pleased to let you know that we’ll be sending a license to the following three commenters:
- Syphadius
- DeliXe
- Ethan Wright
