My Pretty Pony

My Pretty Pony App for iPhone
    Like unicorns?  Pegasus?  My Little Ponies (The new version, style wise)?  This is the application for you. You can mix and match many different colours, hair styles, accessories and such to create your own unique pony!
     This is a paper doll style application.  You have a basic doll, you customize it, dress it, save it.  Move on to make another one.
     This application is landscape only.  No portrait mode.  However you can turn it upside down, and it will spin to accommodate which side of the phone you prefer to play on.
     Let's see the options on the launch screen you can see to the right.  We'll start with the bottom options.  More: Provides other applications you might enjoy downloading.  I didn't see anything interesting on the very small list. My Favourites: The ponies you have made that you added to your favourites list.  From here you can delete, Facebook post, email or save the pony pictures.  Shop: Allows you to add more variety to your wardrobe.  There are currently 2 different sets.  Each set is 0.99. Restore Purchases: This is for if you have removed the application or changed devices.  You can restore the things you've purchased back into the application.
     Then there's the big button... PLAY!
     When you press play you'll see 3 carousel horses.  One for each set.  The middle one is the default set (Also there's music that will eventually drive you insane if you don't click something to make it stop).  The other 2 are unlocked by purchasing them through the "Shop" option.  So let's click the default set in the center, and go from there.
     The music is now different.  Much more soothing and something that I can listen to in the background for a while.  If you do get tired of the music, there are options on the left side of the screen.  one is to get rid of the music  The other two options are refresh (Make the pony a naked default base again), as well as the save pony option.  below those is the back button.
     On the right side are the various categories for things you can add to your pony.  You don't need to add everything!  Don't want wings?  Don't add them.  Don't want accessories?  Don't add them.  It's entirely up to you.
     The options are as follows, from the top down.  Pony Colour (23), Eye (20), Hat (37), Wings 19), Horn (10), Mane (26),  Tail (24), Shoes (19), Tops (23), Tattoo/Stamp (26), Accessories (21).  What I don't like is that there is no "remove" option.  So if you don't want your horse to have a horn, you can't remove it.  If you add wings then decide to remove them, you need to start over from scratch to remove them.  I really believe they should add a remove item option.
     With all of the available items, you can create some really interesting ponies.  Below are some samples.

     If you notice that the side panel looks like there's not a lot of categories.  You can swipe up and down to scroll the categories.

     All done?  Click the save option on the left.  It will put your pony in a cute frame and give you some options on how you wish to save your pony.  You can post it to Facebook, send it via email, save it to your device or add it to your favourites.  Change your mind?  Click the back button to go back to your pony customization screen.

     It's a cute application, and free.  There's even some Santa Clause style holiday items you can put on your horse.  Want to make a Christmas pony?  It could be fun!  The music is alright, the art is smooth and clean.  There's a lot of variety which is always a plus.  The additional sets are reasonably priced.  Other than the lack of an option to remove items, I'd say its a really great application.  It's worth a download if you like My Little Pony style things.
