What's new on the app stores on Tuesday 16 August 2011

A super quiet day today, with only four apps for your consideration (two of which aren't available in the UK). We're hoping for more activity tomorrow.

Virtual Voice & Electric Ears

This Android app is designed for deaf and mute people, with the aim of helping them communicate using text-to-speech and speech synthesis technology built into Android. The app is free to download and use, with its developer promising that there'll be no adverts either.
Android

Carcassonne

Board game Carcassonne has plenty of loyal fans, and it already has a version for iOS. Now Exozet Games and AMA have launched it for Android and BlackBerry too, complete with the River II official expansion content.

Amazon Student

Amazon has released a new iPhone app (in the US only) aimed at students as they go back to school. It's essentially a new client for the Amazon store, complete with barcode scanning to get textbooks as cheaply as possible.

CBeebies On The Go

There's an app for CBeebies? But wait, British parents. It's not for you – not yet at least. The new CBeebies app is being released in a limited number of countries as a pilot: Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka and South Korea.
