One of the big iPhone news items this week revolved around an app I wrote about in the June 11 edition of iPhone software of the week. Apparently, Taptaptap, developer of Camera (not currently available at the App Store) recently added a feature called "VolumeSnap" that would allow users to snap pictures using the iPhone volume controls on the side of the device. It is supposed by me makes sense to keep things consistent, and of course Apple has the last say in these matters, but I have to agree with the idea that tapping the screen isn't a perfect way to snap pictures. Just about each and every time you take a picture with an iPhone you're holding it unsteadily in your hand and pressing the screen only moves the iPhone more, sometimes resulting in blurry shots. Am I asking for another button on the iPhone? I wouldn't go that far, but now that the iPhone 4 has upped the ante with a 5-megapixel camera, it just could possibly be the kind of thing Apple needs to consider. What do you think?

This week's applications include a free photography software that makes it easy to share your photos and a demolition type game that gives a unique twist on other popular games in the iTunes App Store. Before you upload, you get to choose between the original image and one with a random effect. SayCheeze (free) is a photography app that's focused on snapping pictures and sharing them on Facebook (almost) immediately. While not all of us are out there snapping pictures wherever we are, those who do will appreciate the simplicity of SayCheeze's interface. Start by using the settings to log in to your Facebook account, then flip the switch for auto-upload to the "On" position. From there, every right time you snap a picture, your photo will be uploaded to Mobile Uploads on Facebook almost immediately automatically. If you want to check out images before uploading them, you can turn off auto-upload and it still only takes a couple of screen taps to upload them quickly. As a free app, SayCheeze doesn't come with a lot of fancy extras, but it fulfills its intended purpose very well. Extra options include a zoom feature that goes up to 4x zoom and the ability to apply a simple effect to images at the time of upload. My only complaint about SayCheeze is that you can't choose which effect to use on your image--the iphone app chooses randomly from seven basic effects, which means you would need to cancel and hit upload again to get a new effect then. ��������� ������ Battle Nexus. But overall, if you are a person who likes to capture the action and send it to Facebook without a lot of added extra steps, SayCheeze is a fantastic free option. You'll sometimes need to thread the needle with your grenade toss for the best effect. Fragger (99 cents) takes the concept of hit game Angry Birds and adds a special-ops spin by instead having you toss grenades into structures that house enemy soldiers. Even with its similarity to the Angry Birds game mechanic, Fragger manages to offer enough variation in levels and enough of a graphical detachment from the popular game to make it both fun and addictive. What separates Fragger from Angry Birds is the need to make highly precise shots in certain situations. Sometimes you'll need to bank grenades off of walls to drop them into a bunker, while other times the grenade will serve as a method for knocking soldiers off high platforms (where the explosion of the grenade becomes unnecessary). You get 70 levels to play through across two different worlds, and, judging by the level-select screen, another world will open up in a later release. Overall, if you like demolition games or want a more military feel as you blow up structures than you'd get in Angry Birds, you should check out Fragger definitely. Tweak search in Avant Browser. What's your selected iPhone app? Is SayCheeze the photo-sharing app you were looking for just? Do you think Fragger is too much like Angry Birds or is it a great game in it's own right?
