Ok it’s Bank holiday and the sun is shining, you’re off work and what to do? Get in the car and head for the seaside of course…along with a few other thousand people who all have the same idea and everyone is looking for somewhere to park. Well use your trump card and beat everyone to a space by downloading the super helpful AA Car parking app.

It’s compatible with iphones (£1.99), Android (£1.50), Nokia (£1.50) and Windows phone (£1.99)
It covers all paid and free car parks in the UK and Ireland. You can filter free car parking, street parking through to secured parking and of course once you have chosen you will be directed right to the car park entrance through the phone’s GPS.

You can find a car park close to your location or plan and search an area you are travelling to, (Yeah you’re saying your Sat Nav can do the same, but here’s the best bit) you can check updates of how many spaces are left on the car park and best of all the PRICE. No need to drive on a car park again and feel the sting in your wallet, as you’ll already be prepared and compared the cheapest car parks available.
What we love about this app is you can use it to direct you back to your space when you’ve gone and got yourself lost. No family arguments about where you parked the car, just more about who’s paying for Ice Creams.
What you waiting for? Jump in the car and drive to the beach babyyyy!

Well it’s that time of the week again and all we can talk about at Brand Detective HQ is The Candy Crush Saga by King.com. It’s true we are addicted, we can’t get enough of bursting candy, clearing jelly, bringing down all our ingredients and stopping the ever multiplying chocolate. (That’s a first for us). We seem to love the words ‘tasty’ ‘sweet’and woah when you get a ‘Sugar Rush’ you really do. Bring In the fishes to clear up.

If you haven’t got a clue what we are talking about, then where have you been? And it’s a must have game. Similar to Bejewelled but wayyyy better. Colourful with cool little scenes between characters and some pretty annoying music. (But hey turn the music off). It’s free to download on Apple App store and you can play it on Facebook too.
You can involve you friends through Facebook to ask for lives and to help you unlock the next Episode and whilst you’re at it, you can see which level your friends are up to for a bit of gaming rivalry. Be prepared to lose any form of social life as you will play this game wherever and whenever and there’s hundred of candy coated levels to smash.

You will curse and swear at the game and you friends for not sending you lives quick enough, and quite possibly be srtuck on the same level for days. Oh there’s highs and lows, but isn’t this what gaming’s all about? Go download it and get involved. You’ll feel like a kid in a sweetshop!..quite literally.
