Scott and Eric have brought you another entertaining and informative Appslappy show. WWDC has come and gone and our crew haphazardly deals out their commentary, with gusto. Mr. Van Skyhawk also reaches dude-like levels of chillness and is able to create awesome music in spite of that. Enjoy!

Scott and Eric have once again made their weekly sage-like wisdom and information of iOS apps available for consumer downloading. Warhammers shall be swung, pots will be won, and Dots shall be consumed. Also, please remind Mr. Van Skyhawk that he needs to provide us a way to get his fancy-shmancy new AppSlappy song.

Our beloved duo returns once more to give you app review happiness. A personal highlight this episode was the fact that after about 4 years we finally have a new opening intro song by Hawkito himself. Do yourself a favor and express interest in getting that song from Mr. Van Skyhawk and we may be able to get/purchase that one soon. This episode includes reviews for Google Hangouts and the ubiquitous Candy Crush Saga, complete with the ridiculous in-app purchases. Enjoy!

They Might Be Giants, or TMBG for those who are lazily inclined, released an app about a week ago. It has fairly standard stuff, essentially it holds five of the most recent/popular tracks from TMBG and connects you to their social media fan base. For any TMBG fans, it definitely deserves a place on your home screen, and it’s free. Also, what’s pretty cool, is the artwork in the app was developed and hand-stitched by Hine Mizushima.

In other news, you may have heard that the App Store got a little to pornoriffic recently with the 500px photo sharing app and then Apple subsequently removed it. Now, this app has returned into the fold after being cleansed of all boobs. But the real question is what has actually changed? Apparently they added a “Report” button to each image so people could 500pxflag any potential problem, and what’s more, Apple raised the rating of the app to 17+. Co-founder of 500px, Evgeny Tchebotarev, drew a correlation between their app and the Vine, who also has had issues of porn popping up when it shouldn’t. The Vine, however, still enjoys a 12+ rating on the app store. Lest we forget, Apple can pretty much do whatever it likes on it’s own app store, fair or not.

With that said, Woz claims that this scene never really happened, citing that the relationship and motivations among the two of them were quite different. But he also added that “I’m embarrassed but if the movie is fun and entertaining, all the better.”
