Emergency Aus
Platform: Android
Price: Free
Australia
seems to have had more than its fair share of natural disasters lately,
but how do you know whether something will affect you? Gridstone has
put together an application that pulls live information from the various
alerts sites to ensure that users have the most current emergency
information.
Express Plus
Price: Free
The
Australian Department of Human Services has released an application to
help out the job seekers that need to report their income and other
changes in circumstances.
GoToMyPC
Platform: Android
Price: Free
Citrix
has released a remote desktop tool for Android, allowing those who
simply can't stop working to connect back to their work machines and
keep going, even while on the move.
LivingSocial
Platform: iOS
Price: Free
LivingSocial
has brought out another update to its app, allowing users to pick up a
good deal whether they're still in the country or out on a business
trip.
Policelink (Queensland)
Platform: Android
Price: Free
In
those times where you should report something non-urgent to the police,
but don't know who you should be calling, don't tie up triple-zero.
Policelink has now launched an app to help out Queenslanders who might
not necessarily remember the right number to call.
QR-WiFi Plugin
Platform: Android
Price: Free
Don't
want to keep your Wi-Fi network wide open, but want to make it easy for
users or perhaps visitors to connect? An add-in to QR droid allows
admins to create a QR code that will enable users to simply walk up,
scan, and get connected when they're on premise without broadcasting a
password to pesky neighbours.
Splashtop 2
Platform: iOS
Price: Free
Splashtop
is another remote desktop tool, this time for iOS. Fancy being able to
open up Microsoft Word, even on your Apple device? Simply remote in to
your PC and access it from afar.
ThrowMeApp
Platform: Android
Price: Free
There
are plenty of new phones coming out on the market, so should you throw
your old one away? Well, maybe. How about throwing it and taking aerial
pictures? Just make sure you catch it, otherwise, that's one expensive
shot.
