Apps for a Personal Passion

For my passion apps, I chose to download apps that were relating to jigsaw puzzles.  I downloaded five different apps that were jigsaw puzzle apps, that I felt passionate about. 

The five apps that I downloaded were: 
  • Jigsaw Puzzles - I rated this app a 3.5/5. There were only a few variety of puzzles and only a few options for number of pieces that you were able to use. The app looked nice and moved well when you were doing a puzzle, but there were a small amount of options, in general. 
  • Jigty Puzzless - I also rated this app a 3.5/5. Like the last one, there weren't as many options for number of pieces and puzzle images, but the app looked nice and the mechanics of the app were really nice. But, their just weren't a large variety of options.  
  • Jigsaw - I rated this app a 4/5. There were more options for images, but there were only three different options for number of pieces, so that made the app a little less fun. Like the other apps, the app working well and had a nice interface, just lacked options. 
  • 1000 Jigsaw Puzzles - I rated this app a 4.5/5. This app had the most option for number of pieces and images, and even allowed you to make a puzzle out of your own images. This made this app by far my favorite of the five. 
  • Magic Puzzles - This app also got rated 3.5/5. Like the other ones, this app lacked options. 
For each app, I rated them on quality of the interface, the amount of options for for number of pieces you can use when doing a puzzle and the amount of options for actual puzzle images. While many of these apps have thousand of images available, they require in app purchases to get them on your device, even though all these apps are free. 

Overall, my favorite app was 1000 Jigsaw Puzzles, because it had plenty of options and even had the option to turn your own picture into a puzzle. None of these other apps are awful, 1000 Jigsaw Puzzles was the only one that I really, really loved.
