Zapd Review
by on February 17, 2012
Got 60 seconds to spare? That’s how long, Zapd boasts, it’ll take you to make a new website with your iPhone. If you don’t count the time it takes to create an account, it’s true! Select a theme (there are 20 available at the time of writing and none of them are too ghastly), give it a name, create your first, ahem, Zap, which can be some text, a photo or a link, hit the Publish button, tell your friends via Facebook, Twitter or email and bosh! You have a web page and everyone knows.
Lack of landscape mode aside, which tends to put you off long text entries, it does the job, albeit with an extremely limited set of tools. Compared with Tumblr – the lightweight microblogging champion of the world, also available on the iPhone – it’s a featherweight. More themes (as well as premium themes), custom URLs and video are all on the way, but even with all that it’s a basic package.
It’s either really stupid or completely brilliant, and we suspect the latter: bare-bones web publishing that does just what it says on the box, right now.

iPhone
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.
iPad
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.
Android
Vivi In Stile - Peroni
Full of style and a surprising amount of substance
Android
Official EURO 2012 app
Get your Euro 2012 plans in order whether you are home or away
iPhone
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.)
