iTunes Gift Card Giveaway

Rules for the contest are on the video page. The reason for this is to not spam or add more attention to my channel or Twitter account. Below is the reason I am doing this giveaway.

My "How to Create a Genius Playlist For Your iPhone" video has gotten a lot of coverage, which I am very proud of and appreciative for, and I would love to see it grow more and more as well. The contest will end when the video receives over 200 views.

ISW Recorder & Editor: A Very Useful, Free iPhone App

ISW Recorder & Editor is a brilliant new, free iPhone app for recording your audio and mixing it around. I previously wrote a review of the paid version for this app on my website and thecreativeone.tv. This app is very useful for almost anyone.

Easy to Use
This audio recorder and editor is very easy to use, not to mention fun. The app has a very clean interface, which is very clearly laid out and is one of the rare apps in the App Store that is actually very well designed in both the UI and the icon. I was immediately able to use the app and navigate around with ease.

Many Uses
ISW is an incredibly versatile tool and can be used by pranksters, students, songwriters, especially with its scriptwriting feature. Another great feature is the Input Percentage Meter, which can go up to 500% and pick up even the tiniest of vibrations. This feature could be convenient for spying on people. Not that I’m endorsing this sort of behavior. Absolutely not. As I said in my review, “a student could use the arrangements feature to make one arrangement for a topic that was discussed in several lessons.”
This app really is amazingly useful, especially considering that it’s free. Of course, if you choose to go pro, then that’s cheap too, at 99 cents. Read on below to find out how to get it for free.

Promo Code
I have a promo code for the paid version of this app. If you want to have a chance of winning it, then email me at ha.alamin@gmail.com, with the subject: ISW Giveaway. Then tell me why you think this app would be useful for you. The winner will be the person with the most creative way of using it. You don’t have to write what you will actually use it for and you can make it up. I might also give it to the funniest email. You’ll just have to see.

Edit: I have two new promo codes to give away, that makes a total of three codes.
