"On the hunt for some of the better new apps to arrive for iOS over the past month? Your search is over. Here\u2019s 17 of the best to hit the App Store in March.\r\nWeTransfer\r\nWeTransfer, the service for sending large files across the Web, launched its first iOS app this month, as it looks to expedite the process of sharing hi-res photo or video files from mobile.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nInitially geared towards uploading and sharing videos and photos, the WeTransfer app allows up to 10GB of files to be shared directly from an iPhone\u2019s Camera Roll.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 WeTransfer\r\nUltrakam\r\nUltrakam lets iOS cinematographers shoot at film-quality resolution, and it must surely be among the first iOS apps that can record 2K video.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWith Ultrakam, you can shoot in either H.264 (iFrame) or\u00A0M-JPEG codecs to yield up to 2240 x 1672 pixels, or 70 percent more than 1920 x 1080 Full HD. The app\u2019s ability to capture 4:2:0 full range color shows denser blacks and whites.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Ultrakam\r\nBlinkist\r\nWe brought you news on\u00A0Blinkist back in January, a subscription service that helps you get to grips with books in fifteen minutes. Thus far, Blinkist has only been available via the Web and iPhone/iPod touch, but with its latest update it now comes optimized for iPad too.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s all about manual curation and condensing, as field experts with a passion for explaining complex matters provide abridged versions of non-fiction titles that can be read quickly.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Blinkist\r\nZippy\r\nOptimized for iPhone and iPod touch, Zippy does most of the things you\u2019d expect from any half-decent to-do list app, but it delivers insights into your activities using gorgeous graphics to boot. Yes, Zippy is as much about the aesthetics as it is the nuts and bolts.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nIt won\u2019t take you long to figure out how to add tasks to your to-do list, but it\u2019s the infographics and insights on your completion rate that takes this to the next level.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Zippy\r\nFlight\r\nFlight is a gorgeous app that displays real-time flight status and corresponding weather conditions.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nTapping data from FlightStats and World Weather Online, Flight will appeal most to frequent travelers, but if you find yourself firmly in that camp, then it's worth $1.99.\r\n\r\nFlight comes courtesy of Istanbul-based InnovationBox, the same company that gave us the stunning Konvert unit conversation app last year. So we\u2019re not entirely surprised by what we see here.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Flight\r\nMicrosoft Office\r\nMicrosoft Office arrived for iPad this month, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The new apps are free to use for viewing files, but require a subscription to edit.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frpsGFQ4AIY\r\n\r\nThe apps let you store documents on the iPad itself, but you can also save them to OneDrive. This means you can retrieve your files across all devices where Microsoft Office is available.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Microsoft Office: Word | Excel | PowerPoint\r\nPhotowall for Chromecast\r\nLess than a week after Google launched its Chromecast streaming dongle outside the US, landing in 11 more countries, the Internet giant unveiled a brand new standalone app that lets you create a collaborative photo montage on your TV.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RMZhCJG3mg\r\n\r\nOptimized for both iPhone and iPad, Photowall for Chromecast is officially an \u2018experiment\u2019, one that lets anybody take a picture and send it to a Photowall on their big screen \u2013 photos can be added via the Web and Android too. It then creates a YouTube video of this collaboration, which can be shared with everyone.\r\n\r\nWith this launch, Google is trying to encourage third-party developers to use its recently-opened Cast SDK.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Photowall for Chromecast\r\nNewsbeat\r\nAmerican media behemoth The Tribune Company launched an interesting new service this month, one that lets you audio-stream text-based stories from online newspapers.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nThe core raison d\u2019\u00EAtre of Newsbeat is to \u201Creimagine news for mobile\u201D, using human voiceovers and text-to-speech technology. Newsbeat streams up to seven thousand stories each day from across the Web.\r\n\r\nWhile it is a little US-centric, it also serves up global news tidbits too, though you can\u2019t indicate a specific country other than the US. You can also narrow things down to specific publications, topics, sports teams, and more. It works just like a standard media player \u2013 you can skip forward or back if you miss an audio snippet.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Newsbeat\r\nMedium\r\nMarch saw Medium introduce its first mobile app, kicking off with a read-only affair for iOS.\r\n\r\nThe app allows users to access a myriad of published articles by signing in using their Twitter account \u2014 which comes as little surprise given that Twitter is a major component of its Web incarnation. And then, of course, there's the small fact that Medium founder Ev Williams was also partly responsible for creating Twitter.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Medium\r\nStopMo Studio\r\nThe National Film Board of Canada rolled out a neat iPad app this month, designed with budding stop-motion animators in mind.\r\n\r\nStopMo Studio is pretty idiot-proof. From the second you launch it, you\u2019re good to go \u2013 snap a picture, shift the subject slightly, and then snap the next one.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThis app is also great for time-lapse work, letting you stitch together images to show something evolving (e.g. a sunset) over time. And you can also use both the front and rear-facing camera to capture shots, while onion skinning and the on-screen grid help you fine-tune your work-of-art.\r\n\r\nStopMo Studio proclaims to be the &amp;quot;most complete stop-motion app in the App Store&amp;quot;, and though that\u2019s a rather lofty claim, it\u2019s definitely worth your time all the same.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 StopMo Studio\r\nYummly\r\nYummly finally introduced an iPad-optimized version of its smart recipe search engine this month, to go alongside the iPhone-optimzed version that arrived last year.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLaunched way back in 2010, Yummly has been serving foodies with recipes based on their exact preferences for a while already. Dislike mayonnaise AND salt? Yummly lets you exclude such ingredients from your searches.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Yummly\r\nStream Web\r\nMAZ, known for its digital publishing platform that shares the same name, launched an app called Stream Web this month. In a nutshell, it's a mobile browser that places emphasis on gesture-based controls and a unique screenshot-sharing mechanism.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhenever you\u2019re looking at a site, you can tap with two fingers to cut out part of the webpage and share it with someone else. It\u2019s a basic crop tool, but instantly you\u2019ll see a range of supported apps at the top of the screen including Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Evernote. In some cases, including Facebook and email, the image itself acts as a link for the original Web page, removing the need to share a URL.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Stream Web\r\nWonder PL\r\nWonder wants to take on YouTube with a new ad-free video platform for exclusive lifestyle content.\r\n\r\nAhead of launch, Wonder lined up content partners in the form of\u00A0Space NK,\u00A0The National Film Board of Canada,\u00A0Universal Music Group,\u00A0House &amp;amp;amp; Gardens,\u00A0Tom Aikens and\u00A0Epidemic Sound among others, to ensure there was plenty of content from the get-go.\r\n\r\nThe platform isn\u2019t aimed at your everyday YouTube videos though. Instead, it\u2019s more for professional content creators, SMEs and brands.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Wonder PL\r\nFindery\r\nAfter more than a year as a Web app, Flickr co-founder Caterina Fake unveiled the iOS incarnation of her latest project \u2013 Findery.\r\n\r\nFindery, which changed its name from Pinwheel back in 2012 following a trademark dispute, essentially lets you explore places through notes on a map, using video, audio, text and images.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nRather than tapping existing data-points such as online travel guides, Findery\u2019s starting point is that of a blank canvas, superimposed upon a map. This map can be traversed using geo-tagged notes consisting of the collective wisdom of users around the world. These notes may include anything from anecdotes and historical factoids, to personal memories.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Findery\r\nAmazon Seller [US Only]\r\nIf you frequently use Amazon to sell things, then you may be pleased to know the e-commerce giant launched a dedicated mobile app for this very purpose.\r\n\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0 \r\nThe aptly-titled Amazon Seller app is only available for iPhone users in the US for now, and there\u2019s no word yet on when this will be rolling out to other platforms either, though Amazon did say to &amp;quot;stay tuned&amp;quot; for more details on both these fronts.\r\n\r\nAt any rate, the app lets you list items for sale, contact Amazon for seller support, and respond to customer questions. You can also check current prices, sales rank, and reviews, by using text-based search or scanning barcodes.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 Amazon Seller\r\nUP Coffee\r\nHow do you know when to curb your caffeine intake? That\u2019s where Jawbone's new UP Coffee app comes into play.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAt the beginning, the app asks for information about your body and caffeine sensitivity. Gender, height and weight \u2013 it\u2019s the standard set of metrics \u2013 although you\u2019ll also need to include how much caffeine affects your body, and when you typically wish to fall asleep each night.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 UP Coffee\r\nReShoot\r\nReShoot is a free iOS video shooting, editing, and sharing app, designed to help mobile videographers of all levels get the most out of their footage, while fixing mistakes and inserting additional footage on the fly.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nA universal app that works both on the iPhone and the iPad, ReShoot facilitates the capture of variable length movies (as opposed to some consumer apps that place strict limits on clip duration). The app\u2019s video editing technology lets you pause, rewind, and reshoot portions of your movie.\r\n\r\n\u27A4 ReShoot\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re on the hunt for more iOS apps, check out some of the best ones from February, or put your feet up and peruse our pick of the bunch from the whole of 2013. Alternatively, you can also check out some of the best Android apps from this month too."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
