Royal Navy App

Royal Navy: The Navy has a new way of finding recruits: an iPhone app that tests would-be engineers’ abilities through a series of challenges including choosing how to respond to a missile attack. The app was created by the government’s Central Office of Information and the Marvellous and Glue agencies. Release.

Bauer iPhone apps: Bauer Consumer Media is debuting its first three mobile apps, for its Empire film magazine, the Parker’s car buying guide and the Kiss radio station. Empire’s Movie Guide app is £2.99 and has more then 9,000 reviews, Parker’s app also costs £2.99 and Kiss’ app has both live and streaming music. From Media Week.

Eurogamer iPhone app: For £2.39 you can download Eurogamer’s new mobile app and browse its games content “without being bothered by pesky adverts”, as the site itself puts it. News, reviews and video are all there, apparently alongside possible “infrequent/mild sexual content or nudity”.

Gopayforit: The mobile payments business has launched a new system to allow content owners to set up online payments more easily. The company says bloggers and news sites can take readers’ payments of between £10 and £0.25, which are added to users’ mobile phone bills. Release.
