Top 10 Most Expensive Apple Apps

Thursday, February 13, 2014 23:21

(Before It's News)

Ever wonder what the most expensive apps are? There is a big chance that you might be reading this story from an iPhone or iPad or even if you use a PC you might have a device that runs on Apple’s iOS operation system somewhere near you. This can be assumed since Apple Inc. reported sales of over 37 million iPhones and almost 20 million iPads in the first three months of 2013.

10. Water Globe ($219.99)

I’m beginning to think that iOS app developers think everybody has way too much money and not enough brains. Remember those snow globes we used to collect when we were children? The Water Globe app for iOS is like a dreamy snow globe. After downloading the app, you can use your finger to shake up the snowflakes, as well as physically shake and tilt your iPhone to create that snow motion. Plus, if you get bored of the same snow globe, you can change the background, gravity, snowflake size and amount of snow. And if you want a festive screen saver, Water Globe lets you set it to snow storm mode and leave it running. However, there are several free snow globes apps on the App Store, so we’re not sure why you’d pay more than $200 for this one.

9. BizjetMobile ($249.99)

Now we’re getting something cool and potentially worth the money. BizjetMobile allows people to connect their iPhone or iPad to an aircraft’s satellite phone and data link. On some smaller aircraft, they may have a satellite data link that goes relatively unused in terms of bandwidth. By connecting an iPad with this application on it to the airplane’s satellite link controller, other BizjetMobile enabled devices can connect to the SLC via Bluetooth.

This makes voice calling and SMS messaging a reality without investing in super expensive phone equipment. This could be ideal for the small charter operator to offer to their jet-set clients.

8. SafeSession Voice Encryption ($299.99)

While you’re jetting around and chatting on BizjetMobile, you may want to secure your conversation so no one can get your corporate secrets. If that’s the case then SafeSession Voice Encryption is for you. However you have to make sure that your confidants also have the software installed. Personally, I think it’s worth the money just to say to my wife on the end that we’re ‘Going Secure’. Spy-factor coolness included at no extra charge. If you’re not a high-paid spy, maybe you can opt for the Android version of cellular security.

7. Barcelona vs Madrid ($349.99)

I’m just as much of a soccer fan as the next Canadian, so maybe I’m missing something when I see that I can play a soccer game, with only two team choices, for $350. From the screen shots, it looks like a nice game and I’m sure it’s fun. But I could just about buy a ticket to a Barcelona vs Madrid game for that kind of coin. Or at least to an Edmonton Oiler’s game. This one must be for people far richer and more football savvy than I am.

6. Tap Menu ($399.99)

Now this one appeals to the epicurean in me! I’ve been known to drop as much as $50 in a restaurant including free soda refills, so you know I’m a player! But seriously though, sometimes a great meal is worth the price no matter what. I think Air Vision is definitely on to something here with their iPad menu system. Imagine having a classy high-end restaurant where the specials really are special and the menu may change nightly. You walk in with your beautiful arm-candy date, the garcon shows you to your table and instead of ratty paper menus he places iPads in your hands. Wow factor guaranteed! I’d go eat at a place that had this, just for this reason.
