Today, Marvel’s JARVIS iPhone app was released, which is available for free from Apple’s App Store. You may be asking yourself, “Why should I download this app out of the thousands of choices I have in the App Store?” Well, read on.
Entitled Marvel’s Iron Man 3 – JARVIS: A Second Screen Experience, this app is truly awesome as it delivers an interactive experience. Users are able to interact with Jarvis using only their voice, just as Tony Stark does in the Iron Man movies. Other features include creating customized alarms, downloading ringtones, checking the weather, posting items to Facebook, and syncing the app to your Blu-ray player in order to unlock special features and files (if you own the Blu-ray version of Iron Man 3), including the “first-ever voice controlled Blu-ray!” according to the description in the Apple's App Store. Additionally, one is able to unlock additional suit designs and other downloadable content such as wallpapers.
AppAdvice.com explains that the Jarvis app is cool and innovative enough to feature as one of two of ‘Today’s Best Apps.' Plus, it’s just plain fantastic to pretend that you are inside Tony Stark’s suit, talking to Jarvis, which, by the way, is short for “Just a Rather Very Intelligent System.”
