Apps Of The Week: Ibotta, Pinbook, Recent, Thin Reads, And Upwords

20.05.13

You’ll need an iPhone app this week to save money on those pesky necessities like groceries, so you can buy more apps.

On the iPad we call a mulligan on a Pinboard browser, and for the Mac, we have an app that gives you a quick history lesson.

On the web we’ve got a guide to short ebooks. If you’re still digging Words with Friends, but were looking for a taller challenge, try our game of the week.

iPhone/iPod Touch: Ibotta

The idea of coupons always seems like a good idea until you’re either knee deep in scraps of the mostly unread Sunday Paper, or you’re bottoming out your toner cartridge. Ibotta seeks to give you refunds and coupons without the scissors or even having to remember anything when you leave for the store. Ibotta gives you a list of products and the amount you can potentially earn from buying them. In addition to buying them, you can watch commercials, take polls, or get facts about the product.

The payouts range from $.25 to $.75, meaning you aren’t going to get rich. After you complete your various tasks, you take a picture of your receipt making sure that product codes are visible and you can get a payment sent to your Paypal account.

How do I buy Kindle eBooks for the kindle app on the iPad 2?

Aug 17, 2011 by Alex Chandler | Posted in Other - Computers

As the title suggests, I have the Kindle application on my iPad 2, however, I would like to know how I can buy new eBooks for it?

Have you registered the app to your Amazon account? If not, that's the first step. It should prompt you for the account information when you start it up. If you don't have an account, you can create one. It's free.

Go to Amazon.

Children's ebook iPad app Bookboard adds publishers, subscription ...

by Laura Hazard Owen

Bookboard, the iPad app from former Adobe executives that offers streaming access to a library of children’s ebooks , announced Thursday that it’s added new publishers to its lineup. The service, which has been free in public beta until now, also rolled out new pricing plans.

Bookboard announced new publishing partnerships with Peachtree Press and Open Road — which means that titles like the Berenstain Bears and the Boxcar Children are now available. Bookboard was already working with Charlesbridge, Orca, Twin Sisters, Illumination Arts and Bubblegum Books.

The company also announced pricing. A six-month subscription is $29.94, which works out to $4.99 per month, and includes access to all Bookboard’s content for up to four readers per iPad. A month-by-month subscription is also available for $8.99 per month.

As I wrote in January, publishers receive royalties based on number of pages read and on how well their content does within the platform. Some publishers are also receiving advances, and the licensing agreements appear to vary by publisher.

Bookboard competes with other paid children’s ebook apps like Ruckus Reader , Scholastic’s Storia and Amazon’s Kindle FreeTime Unlimited .
