Description
Star Guitar Pro is an AUTOMATIC GUITAR + VOICE RECORDER, brought to you by Amidio Inc, the developers of the iPhone's best sound synthesizer "Noise.io Pro" (http://amidio.com, http://noise.io)

*** #1 guitar app in terms of simplicity, usability and sound quality ***

***PRO version now allows to create your own patterns/rhythms right on the iPhone!***

AppCraver.com Editor's Pick [8/10]: "Another shining music app from Amidio"

iPhoneTunes.net [5/5]: "I can hear how a song is supposed to sound and imitate it on a real guitar"

148Apps.com "Inspiring" [4.5/5]: "Star Guitar does provide an interesting musical solution if you don’t happen to have your guitar or keyboard."

All the interface takes 1 (one) single screen. There are 7 root notes and 5 modifiers - 144 chords in total. This is more than enough for most songs.

What can you do with those 144 chords? You can play your favorite song (chords are easily found in the internet, try chordie.com) with just a few taps, or create your new hit!

Rocky Artue 1.0

License:Free
Price: Free

Description
Rocky Artue is on a quest to find his father, and only you can help him in this exciting new iPhone adventure with a heartfelt mission!

Rocky was born in the 1940s in Roswell, New Mexico, by the hands of Dr. Artue, a French scientist who was developing a design for a rocket ship. After the famous UFO crash of Roswell took place, Dr. Artue became inspired to create an aerodynamic saucer and abandoned poor Rocky forever, leaving him sealed away in a top-secret warehouse near Area 51. But that wasn’t the end of Rocky.

You see, stored along with Rocky were the remains of alien beings that accidentally landed on earth. No one suspected these beings might have properties of life, but they did, and they imparted these properties to Rocky.

Rocky sprang to life!

There was just one problem. When Rocky came alive, he learned the U.S. government had abducted his father and hidden him away in the bottom of a mine to keep him from sharing too much knowledge about the Roswell crash and his work. This discovery, coupled with his early abandonment by his father, left Rocky feeling very angry. He decided he must rescue his father and show him what an amazing rocket ship he is!

But Rocky can’t find his father alone. He needs your help! By tilting your iPhone left and right, you can help Rocky race through the mine on the quest for his father. Rocky has several useful features that will help you in the mission: his amazing agility and speed will help you swiftly maneuver through the levels. Plus, he can see for miles and miles, despite having only one eye!

Along the way you can collect nuggets to help him gain extra powers such as jumping, turbo speed, and extra lives! While he may have access to all these amazing powers, keep in mind that our friend Rocky is bitter, and from time to time you’ll hear him grumble in a thick French accent he picked up from his estranged father. He means well, though, and he just wants to be loved again. Won’t you help him?

Gate Maps 1.7

License: Free
Price: Free

Description
Gate Maps was designed with the expectation that you'll usually refer to a terminal map while in-flight or in areas with limited connectivity, and therefore works in Airplane mode (no network connection needed for terminal info), on either an iPhone or iPod Touch. Also, given many airport sites use Flash for their maps, accessing such content from your iPhone/iPod Touch is currently not possible. PDF is another popular format, but the download time negates a quick lookup when you're rushing to make that connection!

If you need the added convenience of displaying your arrival and connecting gates on the maps and saving a shorter list of airports you'll be visiting in the near future, consider upgrading to My Gate Maps.

Its primary purpose is to make it more convenient and less stressful to get your bearings in case of a late gate change. As noted earlier, if you're not in as much of a hurry, the airport's dining guide on their website is included as a link.

Gate Maps covers most of the major US airports and an ever increasing list of international ones, for a current total of 38 airports. Please refer to the list below to see if you're covered.

New maps and features are added frequently, driven by your popular requests on the site's project page, and are free updates to the full version.

To use:
After launching, tap the row corresponding to the city of your airport. The first screen you see is the scrollable airport overview map. *Single* tapping one of the terminal areas brings up the more detailed, scrollable view of that area, enabling you to view the layout of the gates. Tap, hold, and swipe-right on a detail map to return to the overview.

Pinch & Zoom gestures are also supported.

Once in the overview or detail view, note the "website" button in the upper right-hand corner. Pressing it will exit Gate Maps and launch Safari to the selected airport's dining webpage. Care has been taken to avoid Flash-driven pages and where airports provide terminal-specific pages, a link has been included to take you directly to that terminal's dining areas.
