1. Super PAC App

While politics can be uncertain, being bombarded with political ads during election year is a guarantee! Luckily, the Super PAC App helps you to understand which PAC is supporting which advertisement. No more sneaky smear-campaigns or faulty endorsements; this app pulls back the curtain so you can decide on the candidates — and their supporters — for yourself.

Listens to any political ad being aired and then relays which organizations are backing it, allowing you to know who is reallybehind the politics.

Uses: iOS and iPhone

Price: Free

2.  Settle It!

Keep this app handy at your next cocktail party: it provides facts and answers to many political unknowns between the candidates (a little foreign policy, anyone?).

Why we love it:

Gets you the correct political facts to help settle those constant arguments that you have with your friends and family at the dinner table. You: 1. Talking heads: 0.
