Getting Started – Apple iOS Apps
This resource was developed by the Independent Living Centre Tech team. Its aim is to provide a starting point to find Apps for Apple iPad, iPod Touch or iPhone
devices. For support in using iTunes and setting up your device, visit the Apple support website http://www.apple.com/au/support/

Top tips for finding Apps
 1. Use keywords to search the App Store, then refine your selection by:
           Price
           Categories
           Rating/Popularity

 2. Look for free or lite versions of Apps so you can try before you buy the full version.

 3. Find out the developer’s name and go to their website to find similar Apps.

 4. Look for lists of Apps recommended or reviewed by others. The ILC has a list of blogs and websites we refer to when finding quality Apps. Some places to
    start are:
            Complete guide to Educational and Special Needs Apps http://www.oneplaceforspecialneeds.com/main/library_special_needs_apps.html
            Kathy Schrock’s Guide to Everything: iPads in the Classroom http://www.schrockguide.net/ipads-in-the-classroom.html
