App update roundup: Beats Music, MovieJax, Theme+ and more!

Apps! We love apps and love them even more when they get updated. Before we send you all off to enjoy the weekend we’re going to check out some apps that have been updated today. Let’s find out what’s new with Theme+, MovieJax, Surfy, Beats Music and more!

Theme+

Head to the Windows Phone Store and you’ll see Theme+ at version 1.3. This update brings the following features:

  • New setting to preview all patterns and color combinations
  • Allow up to four colors per background.

Since we last covered Theme+, the app has also picked up a few other updates that did things like add circular patterns and a ticket system. Theme+ is a great app to make killer Start backgrounds for Windows Phone 8.1.

MovieJax

MovieJax is a brand new video editing app for those on Windows Phone 8.1. It’s already one of our favorites and has just picked up an update. Head to the Windows Phone Store and you’ll see version 1.2 with the following features:

  • Delete project button now working (was disabled in previous release)
  • Improved support for low memory (512MB) devices
  • Capture experience bug fixes
  • Improved handling and messaging around unsupported media

Don’t forget to check our hands-on with MovieJax if you need a quick primer on how it all works. Let us know what you think of the update below in the comments.

Beats Music

We’re looking at an update to Beats Music today. Dr. Dre has updated the app to version 1.10.0.0.0 with the following new features:

  • We're giving props to our playlist creators by showing their names across the app.
  • We've also improved your music listening experience, made the app even faster and fixes lots of bugs.

We really like Beats Music and are happy to see the Windows Phone version see some love. Any of you out there rocking with Beats Music?

Surfy

Not liking IE? Then you’re going to want to test out Surfy for your web browsing needs. The Windows Phone app has just been updated to version 4.3 with the following additions:

  • Quick link page – Launch Pad
  • HTML5 Game section now includes games that don’t require data connection
  • Swipe gesture to quickly switch between next or previous tab

Surfy is a great alternative browser on Windows Phone. How do you like it?

Thanks for the tips everyone!
