TV Movie app on YouTube
The TV guide folks over at TV Movie in Germany have made a video which shows off the iPhone app we developed for them. Whilst concentrating on the iPhone, it also shows the iPad version, TV Movie HD.
The YouTube video is German only, but it’s great to see so many of our features packed into a two minute presentation.
Your first must-have iPad apps
The Apple Store in Munich was full to the rafters at 8am this morning as fans queued to get their hands on the new iPad. Developer Alex was on hand to get this photo, but sensibly decided his iPad case could wait!
It’s an exciting day at equinux. We’ve had the iPad for a while thanks to our San Francisco office, but we hope to see a new wave of excitement over the coming days.
We already have two iPad apps on the App Store:
Firstly, TV Movie HD means that you can now use Germany’s best TV guide with high resolution images and more information on screen. The much larger screen space compared to the iPhone app means TV Movie HD is now comparable in size to the magazine itself. With data for more than 200 channels that loads in the background, it’s perfect for using around the home.
Secondly, there’s the Barbecue HD iPad app. If your weekend looks anything like ours, this app is the closest you’ll be getting to juicy steaks and kebabs. We spent a huge amount of time making sure the sights and sounds of this app were as authentic as possible, taking 160GB worth of photos of real (and often burnt!) food. Now available on the iPad, we’re glad that our users can experience the full detail and resolution for which we’d always hoped.
Both apps are available on the App Store, so show off to friends and family what your newest family member can do.
Barbecue HD – bigger, better, tastier.
Summer is around the corner and at equinux HQ that means just one thing: Barbecue season. After the success of last year’s eye-catching iPhone app, you can now get your teeth into the mouth-watering Barbecue HD for the iPad on the App Store.
Taking full advantage of the extra screen real estate on the iPad, our new Barbecue HD means iPad users can now see the steaks, hot dogs and kebabs in incredible detail and high resolution.
You can pick up and get a closer look at your steaks using your fingertips, and make sure they’re grilled exactly to order. We’ve also included new serving suggestions with new tablecloths, cutlery, serving plates and side dishes.
But above all else, it’s the attention to detail and amazing high resolution graphics that make the iPad come alive. When we originally published the Making of Barbecue, we wrote that the iPhone 3GS allowed for faster graphics processing. The sheer size of the iPad and large screen resolution means we can now showcase the best of the 160GB of photographs taken in full glory.
Every scorch, singe and sizzle can be seen and heard on the iPad exactly as originally visioned.
