This week’s edition of our Apps of the Week roundup includes a tremendous resource for finding hiking trails and campgrounds, a simple todo list creator and an app-based obedience school for dogs of all ages. And as always, we’ve picked out two great new games for you to check out.
Trails.com
Trails.com is the ultimate guide to the outdoors. Whether you’re an outdoor fitness enthusiast or just love nature adventures, you’ll find something useful in this app. Features include data on more than 100,000 trails, GPS directions, guidebooks, user reviews, photos, topo maps and much more. Some features are hidden behind a subscription service, but you can access a bulk of them for free.
Listify
As long as developers keep coming up with new and interesting ways to help users be more productive, I am going to keep trying them out. Listy is an extremely minimalist todo app that allows you to keep track of your tasks with a quick and simple interface. And that’s really all there is to it—no power-user features here. Create a list, add a todo item, set an alarm if necessary, and cross it off once it’s completed.
Pawey
Enroll you and your puppy pal into Pawey School to learn a wide range of skills and fun tricks. Start with the basics and work your way through Pre School, High School, College and Cheeky courses—perfect for any dog of any age or size. Train at your own pace, get weekly training reminders and tips, earn rewards when your dog successfully completes a course, and share your progress with friends.
