Snoop Lion (formally known as Snoop Dogg) has released a "Sticker Camera" app, and plans to release a new game entitled Way of the Dogg for iOS and Android devices. Snoop Dogg's Snoopify Sticker Camera! is a photo sharing app which allows users to "Snoopify" their images with a variety of Snoop Dogg-inspired stickers.

The app is compatible with the iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. You can download it now for free through the App Store.

iPhone apps

Taking a page from the Shaq Fu playbook, Snoop is also bringing his Xbox Live fighting game Way of the Dogg to iOS devices. The game is described as a "rhythm-action combat game".

“It’s the way you live, it’s the way you do what you do and captures the beat, the rhythm and the spirit of my music,” explained Snoop. “It’s not just about who you are ow where you've been, but where you are headed to. This game shows how we evolve as individuals and they've incorporated the journey of my own personal reincarnation as Snoop Lion into my character, the environments and the path that players have to follow.”

Add an iTunes-Style MiniPlayer to the iPhone

The MiniPlayer that comes with iTunes 11 provides album art, audio controls and more in a compact window that saves space. Now you can bring this power directly to the iPhone home screen with the jailbreak tweak MiniPlayer. Why open the Music app if you don't have to?

The MiniPlayer interface was created by Ayecon theme designer Surenix, which means the tweak meshes right into iOS with a polished look. Swipe gestures can be used to hide, move or show the MiniPlayer, and the interface is collapsible to the right or left of the iPhone screen. Tapping the album art will open the Music app.

Secretary can be set to read specific items including a count of missed calls, count of unread messages, SMS or iMessage senders and the content of the messages. Output can be piped through the iPhone speaker or a Bluetooth accessory.
