A guide to latest apps for your tablet



Shufflr Free (iOS, Android)
By Althea Systems
Shufflr calls itself the app "where videos find you". We can only nod our heads in agreement. With a very touch-centric interface that pops videos at you, this app turns all the focus on the content. The app has two parts-Daily Fix that shows the trending videos from YouTube and your Facebook and Twitter accounts; and Flip Side where you can see videos being watched or shared by other users. There is also a Q button that lets you line up videos for viewing.

Tablets are in a way ideal for creating presentations as they are more hands on. And now you have an app that lets you create stunning presentations. Haiku Deck is as simple as it gets- select a theme, add text and pics before selecting the layout style. You can select a word on the page and search for images that will go best with your presentation. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to change fonts.

DocuSign Ink Free (iOS)

Create a digital signature and sign online documents easily. You can create a sign on the touch interface with a stylus or your finger. If that is not accurate enough, just sign on a piece of white paper and click a pick with this app. The apps also keeps a tab on signed documents.

Streamified Free (iOS)
By Streamified LLC
We are not sure we like this app, but the usability for social networking junkies is immense. This app can combine all popular social network streams on one screen. You also have the option of marking read posts so that they do not pop up again. However, there is no option to share Facebook posts or to quote tweets.

Fast Camera
Free (iOS)
By i4software
This app lets your tablet shoot pictures in burst mode. The app is very basic and easy to understand. From the setting you can select the continuous or burst modes as well as the speed and picture quality. On the screen there is a shoot button which once clicked will taking pictures without any time lapse in continuous mode and when you have the button pressed in burst mode. Select the frames you want to use and delete the rest.
