iPhone & ipod Touch Apps - iLightr vs. Zippo Virtual ...

iLighter will set you back 99 cents to download a digital lighter with crisp and realistic flame animation, a flip top case that opens with the flick of your wrist, and 12 different case options available. And Virtual Zippo is a free app that brings the famous zippo brand lighter to your iPhone. You can choose from a wide variety of Zippo cases in a program that lets you flick your finger or snap your wrist to light up like a pro. Virtual Zippo is free and has the advantage of the Zippo brand name, but iLighter's flame animation is a little crisper and smoother and might be worth the dollar it costs to download... if you really feel like you need to have the best fake lighter available on your iPhone. Both programs are great for putting on when you're at a concert and your favorite band is playing their big love ballad... just don't try to actually light a cigarette with either one of these apps. The iPhone is high tech, but not that high tech. I'm Marc Gittleman for TekieTV.Com. Keep watching for answers and updates on all your science and technology needs. Distributed by Tubemogul.
