Wunderlist 2 Review: Task Management Made Simple

Released early this year, Wunderkit sought to redefine online task management and collaboration with its stunning user interface. However, down the line, 6Wunderkinder thought it best to refocus the company on the tool that made their name synonymous with tasks in the first place, Wunderlist.

POP: Turn Your Paper Mockups into Working Prototypes

Here's the dilemma: you're the kind of person that prefers to start on paper, sketch rough ideas with pencil and draft plans before you start a project. You've got sheets and sheets of great app prototypes, ingenious new user interfaces for that next game changer of yours, but you've got nothing or nowhere to test them on. You want to try them out— live— on your d...

Twitterrific 5 for iOS: A design review

Just moments ago, following a few tweets and a teaser shot on Dribbble, Iconfactory released what they're calling a "rethought and rebuilt from the ground up" version of one of the most popular Twitter clients ever built for iOS: Twitterrific 5.

Pickr: insanely simple screen color-picking

I'm a fan of apps that are straight-forward; be it a CSS minification tool, or an app that's designed to compile websites in one click. Some might call them simple, or bare-bones, at the most, but I believe that these kinds of apps— the ones that aren't over-saturated with too much features— are the kinds that get the most work done for me. I don't have to play...

Greif's the writer of an eBook for those getting into UI design, he's the designer of the French startup Sharypic (a major collaborative photo-sharing platform for events), and he's...

iTunes 11: the convergence of iOS and OS X design

The (Re)Designer’s Itch

So, let's say you're a web designer. Having just recently finished what you thought was the best client project ever, you slowly transition back into your personal work. You look at your design mockups, wireframes, your archive of personal styles and palettes of idea.psds. You look at your development sandbox, your in-progress, half-finished experiments, you look at ...

Hammer for Mac lets you build static HTML sites, minus the fuss

If there's a team with an insane attention to detail and a style of design that's almost akin to that of Apple's, then that team would be the same creators of one of the most beautiful web development tools on the market. Riot, the "super-team" behind the development of the 2012 Build Conference website, released, earlier this week, an all-new tool to build and com...

iPad Mini: From a Designer’s Point of View

It's thinner, lighter, almost half the size of the recently announced 4th generation iPad, and it's designed to fill the gap of what Steve Jobs thought as a 'receptive' position of a 7-inch tablet market. The new iPad Mini, as believed to be one of the many dubbed names put up by the Apple analysts' rumor mill (alongside the names "iPad Air" or "the Smaller iPad"), bo...
