It?s still not compatible with every device out there, but features like the ability to alter your calendars on the fly and email event participants is still extremely handy.

Who?s it for? Anyone who makes regular use of Google Calendar will want the app on-hand. It makes taking down appointments as they?re made easy, as well as making adjustments to your schedule as they happen.

MARVEL War of Heroes (Free)

You?ll gather cards of various Marvel superheroes, as well as those of power-ups and other things. Combine them to make a powerful deck to play through the game?s missions.

What?s cool? War of Heroes is a bit different from other digital card games because it?s mostly about the gathering cards and ?evolving? them by completing missions. When you actually use the cards, your strategy and preparation are what matter ? not actually playing the cards at the right time, like in games such as Magic: The Gathering. War of Heroes packs some original artwork from Marvel artists, which is a nice touch, and you can team up with other players within the game.
