Best Dog iPhone Apps
Currently there are a plethora of dog related apps in the App Store. It can be a little overwhelming sorting through the list to pick out the best of the best. In our opinion, the following three iPhone apps stand out in the crowd.
Dog Park Finder
Powered by three years of DogParkUSA.com editorial research, user photos and reviews, the app gives all the information that you need for a quick trip to the dog park, or a vacation across the country.
Pet First Aid
Pet First Aid is loaded with detailed videos and step-by-step illustrations so you’ll know exactly what to do when caring for your pet. Videos include: restraint, muzzling, CPR, bandaging, and many more. All articles, videos, and illustrations are bundled with the application for offline or wilderness access.
THE DOG
Yes, we might be a little biased-but for a very good reason. The iPhone app contains over 450 photos of 92 different breeds from Artlist’s exclusive collection of unique photographs of dogs. Each breed comes with a helpful description and provides an extensive series of ratings covering key ownership facts.
Updated Apps No Longer At Top of "Release Date" Sort
Dan Grigsby with Mobile Orchard reported on Monday that updated apps will no longer move your app to the top of the release day sort.
What really ticks me off (if true) is why doesn't Apple send out a note to its developers before making these types of changes? Apple needs more transparency. Would it be too much to ask to send out a note to keep us developers in the loop?
The good news is for apps that work well out of the starting gates and with a good marketing plan, they have that much more of a leg up on the competition. However, for those more unfortunate apps that are riddled with bugs and poor marketing, it will be a much longer journey to the top.
WireBear currently submitted an update to SportsBook: Pro Football Edition last week to add the ability to view the news articles within the app (default) or to launch them in Safari. We will update everyone to let them know if the update puts us back to the top of the list.
