95.8 Capital FM App for iOS 4

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 19:28:30 +0000

As iPhone OS 4 was released to general public, many of us upgraded their iPhone OS from either 3.1.2, 3.1.3 to iOS 4.0 but with this upgrade, many of apps did not work. Capital FM was one of the apps that did not work with iPhone OS 4.0. Today i.e. 29th June the team behind Capital FM iPhone App have updated their app and thus the Capital FM app is now iOS 4 tested and working.

I am currently using the iOS 4 on my 3G iPod Touch and thus I can say that the app works on iOS 4.0 operating system.

Hipstamatic for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad

admin — Thu, 06 May 2010 21:17:30 +0000

The iPhone App of the Week is Hipstamatic , an app made by Synthetic Corp. This application for iPhone specifically makes the use of different combination of filters to bring back the old times.

History Behind Hipstamatic

Back in 1982, the Hisptamatic was legendary- well, with at least a few hundred small town kids in Wisconsin. Known for its ability to swap lenses and take multiple film formats, this plastic camera was well on its way to being a big deal. Sadly less than 200 cameras were produced. Today, a digital reproduction is brought to the iPhone with lots of added features.

Digital photography never looked so analog. The Hipstamatic brings back the look, feel, unpredictable beauty, and fun of plastic toy cameras of the past! The Hipstamatic keeps the the quirks of shooting old school but gives you the ability to swap lenses, film, and flash settings all with the swipe of a finger.
Characterized by vignettes, blurring, over saturation, discolored images, Hipstaprints have a casual and seemingly accidental snapshot feel. The Hipstamatic can be downloaded to any iPhone sporting the 3.1 or beyond software update. For $1.99 you can download the base model Hipstamatic 150 which includes the John S, Jimmy, and Kaimal Lenses, as well as Blanko, Ina’s 1969, and Kodot Verichrome film and two standard flashes complete with humming sound. Additional lenses, films, and flashes are bundled within the app as ‘Hipstapaks’ and start at 99 cents. Each Hipstapak includes multiple items.
Pictures taken with the Hipstamatic have their very own look and unique character. Artistic and painted with light and quirk, Hipstamatic images are sometimes surprising and offer a delicate beauty turning any iPhone into an instant art making machine. Images can be uploaded directly to Facebook, Flickr, or emailed to your friends and family..

What’s New in Latest Version 150
