HABU, the mood-based music app that auto-generates playlists from your library based on how you feel

, designed by Gravity Mobile leveraging music mapping from Gracenote. The emotional interface is all about intelligent entertainment, filtering information to enhance the user experience. “HABU was created for people who’d rather spend their time discovering new music than creating custom playlists,” says Jeff Benson, director of product management for Gravity Mobile. “With the average customer listening to 17 to 19 hours of music per week, we saw the need to design and develop a music app that could surface highly targeted playlists and music recommendations.” “

The Spotify app for WindowsPhone.  According to Kyle Wagner at Gizmodo, ”This is how every Windows Phone app should look” and I have to agree. It’s so much more appealing than the iOS version. Designed by the Interaction Design team at Ergonomidesign and an in-house team at Spotify, the app conforms quite strictly to the Metro design language.

The Up’s sensors collect data about how much you’ve been sleeping and how much you’ve been moving. That data is then fed into a smartphone app, which also takes in information about your meals. (You enter meal data manually, in part by taking pictures of what you’ve eaten.) Based on all that information, the smartphone program provides “nudges” meant to help you live healthier, day by day. For example, if you haven’t slept much, when you wake up the app might suggest a high-protein breakfast and an extra glass of water.
