Reviews
Great teaching tool!
CC PSYC
This is a great resource for PSYC instructors at all levels. Lots of current videos, links, and research at your fingertips and ready to use in class. Conveniently organized by topics found in most intro texts. You definitely want to download (and use) this app!
great access to current news and information on psychological science

PsycExplorer is a nifty tool that brings together a variety of video, audio, and text sources of current information in a range of psychological science topics. It scans high quality sources to put them at your fingertips, categorized by subdiscipline (e.g., personality, therapy, cognitive, critical thinking, etc.). Allows email forwards and tweeting of entries. The only limitation I note is that you can only browse content in the predefined categories. There is no search feature. I really enjoy it, particularly when I have some free time, for entering a category and scrolling through the many entries to look for interesting new reports. Disclaimer: I was, by way of a general invitation to a psychology professors' listserv, invited to review a beta version of this app. In exchange, I received a free copy of the app. However, if I did not like the app in the first place, I would not have installed and used it. This review, to the best of my knowledge, accurately reflects the app and does not omit any issue other than the one mentioned.
All Things Psych
London Watcher
This much-needed, psych-infused app is great as is and has fantastic potential for being the iPhone/iPad-based place to go for all things psychology. The app provides blurbs about interesting topics in the different subdisciplines of psychology, and then directs you to sites, articles, and videos that provide more information about the topics. An excellent app.
Excellent app for any psychology lover!

As a psych nerd, I was very pleased with this app. Michael Britt did a great job compiling any important psychology information in the news into one simple, convenient application. Definitely worth the purchase for any fan of the subject.

Must have
Darwin A. Guevarra
I will go as far as to say that this application is a must have for any new psychology majors. Michael continously updates the information, so you will have access to new research on a regular basis. I was fortunate enough to find an article on new methods for social psychology research that the research lab I'm an assistant in found useful. Great app.
Fantastic!

I have a BS in psychology and am pursuing an MS in school counseling. This app is fantastic, as it offers many different articles regarding various specialties within the field of psychology all in one place! Also, the creator, Michael, is incredibly helpful and truly makes an effort to make this a great app. I truly recommend this app for any student, teacher, or individual interested in the field.
