Shopping List Simpe: the simplest and most beautiful grocery list app
Shopping list is one of these apps, that all the mobile Stores are full of. These apps fight for the user usually by adding features. But is this really what the user needs or wants? More features?
The app is actually just a simple list of items at its core. The main advantage is the gesture control, so the app can be easily operated by one hand. By swiping your finger right you mark items as purchased and swiping left adds items back to list. If you regularly buy the same things over and over again, you do not need to type their names again.
The app has an engaging and clear design. If you don’t like the default color scheme, you can choose from three others.
So far, the app has been getting very positive reviews, and it is on sale now for $1.29. with a free trial.
Stopwatch+ Updated: Now Without Ads!

 |
A couple weeks ago, Stopwatch+, the simple yet delightful time-keeping app, was released. This week, its first update is being introduced, which includes general bug fixes; but more importantly, the ability to remove ads.
Thanks to WP8′s in-app purchase system, the process is quite simple: you go to Settings, tap the “Remove ads” toggle switch, navigate to the Store, then complete the purchase using your favorite paying mechanism. You then return to the app, and the ads magically disappear.
This feature is running for US$0.99, which is a fair price to pay to never again see an ad. Furthermore, because there’s more screen real state, you’ll be able to see the current best lap without navigating to the lap list.
Stopwatch+ is free out of the box, so get it at the Windows Phone Store, or scan the QR code to download it directly to your phone.
