Can’t remember the last time you “Yahooed”? We can’t say as we did either, that is why we had our doubts about this app. Yahoo’s app surprised us though with it’s top news slideshow, at a glance weather, Trending Now and latest sports scores. As you scroll down you will find several sections; News, Finance,Entertainment, and Sports all several pages deep with articles. In testing several other major networks news apps we found that while Yahoo was not always the first with a story, in general the news articles was updated more often than most. The Featured Videos and Video Playlist usually contain interesting videos and the My Favorites section allows you to add any site (Facebook,Sports,etc.) to be easily accessible. Though skeptical at first we think we will definitely be keeping the Yahoo News app around for awhile.

Ever wanted to play around with night vision without spending hundreds for the privilege? Then Night Vision Camera is the app for you. It is a pretty easy to use app that allows to use your phones camera to see in night vision with the ability to adjust light sensitivity, zoom in on objects and even save night vision images. Since true night vision uses infrared (at least not yet anyways) the abilities of this app are limited to those of your phone’s camera though it seemed to work pretty well on the phones we tested it on. While it may not be the best choice for secret missions it can definitely help you see what critters may be lurking in your backyard at night… on second thought maybe you don’t want to know!
