3Great for sharing fun moments with friends, but it feels like the app isn’t quite finished yet
Disposable Hipstamatic Review
by on February 17, 2012
Sharing is key when using Disposable Hipstamatic, an app that allows you to create ‘cameras’ between friends. You can all snap away until its virtual roll of 24 shots is full, but here’s the kicker: you can only view the photos once every one has been shot.
Just like the older Hipstamatic, Disposable is trying to emulate the good old film days, with vintage camera effects characterising each shot. Unfortunately, it also requires In-App Purchases to unlock its full potential. Some of these, controversially, only work for a limited number of times, meaning you’ll need to cough up again when they ‘run out’. However, the app itself is free, and with three cameras included, we think that’s reasonably generous.
It’s frustrating that all those In-App Purchases you made in the original Hipstamatic can’t be brought across to Disposable. However, using the app is easy, and waiting to finish a roll is nostalgic – if a little tedious.

Ragdoll Blaster 3
The iOS equivalent of a plain cheese sandwich: does the job, but it won't linger in the memory afterwards.
iPhone
Puckerz
One for those with a careless bent, and perfect for when you want to play a game but not do any thinking.

Pulse: Volume One
Stylish, absorbing and challenging, but needs Game Center support and an injection of longevity and jolly.
iPad
Procreate
Some hugely impressive tools and an interface ideal for artists make this a great painting app.
iPhone
Print n share
Difficult to set up, but once you’ve got it working, it offers a great range of print options.
iPad
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within HD
Control issues aside, Warrior Within really is a magnificent sequel.

pxl.
The interface feels a bit out of place on iOS, but it’s a fun app, and produces interesting results.
Puzzlejuice
Absurdly challenging, sometimes brutal, but frequently brilliant (especially on the iPad); just be aware of what you’re letting yourself in for. (Sob.)
