So I’m a little late, already on my second friday app reviews, but I’ll get on the ball, I swear. I am in Portland again, finally, and I’m so happy, but its been stressful looking for an apartment, as it always is. Anyway, last week I said I would get the paid version of instapaper and write a review so here it is: Also.. keep reading for a review of doodle jump (its annoyingly fun)
Instapaper has really been a godsend, and as I imagined last week, getting the pro version was really just a thin layer of icing on the cake. I feel good that I’ve helped out another independent developer who has made a great product. The added features are ho-hum, I haven’t really used them too much, and when I did try to read a wired article the app crashed. Blech… I sent in a bug report and haven’t heard anything so.. that kind of sucks.
Anyway, the service is still good, if you have extra money I would say get the paid version but you really won’t get anything out of it other than a bit of feel-goodness, which may dissipate quickly when you start seeing some bugs. 3 out of 5 stars for the paid version.
Doodle Jump is 99c, tons of fun, and will haunt you when you try to sleep, because you will definitely get a doodle jump effect when you close your eyes after playing for only 20 minutes. So watch out. 4 out of 5 because of the haunting.
