THE TOOL TYPE APPMON



STANDARD LEVEL


GOMIMON

It's the trashbin! The ability to delete apps! Of course that gets a fun little homage to the assorted Dookie digimon, resembling a Garbagemon with a more Sukamon-like swirl and a big, slobbery tongue. Kinda wish it leaned more towards a Numemon, but whatever, it's fine!

RATING:




JAMMINGMON

A signal-jamming app, capable of emitting horrible noises that cause pain to other Appmon. Awkward but interesting design, with the big flaring speaker on top and that visor that visualizes sound. I don't know what a readout like that is even called.

RATING:




MIRRORMON

Oh! We've seen this weirdo as a Digimon before! Always fun, good to see more Jawa eyes again. Never crossed my mind there was such a thing as a "mirror app" though. Wouldn't that just be any camera in selfie mode?

RATING:




ONPAMON

Huh...just a color swap of Jammingmon, huh? This one is an "ultrasound" app. Does that exist? Does that even work??

RATING:




RECOMON

A recording app who looks pretty serious about it! Almost like a weird little cop or soldier with an oversized helmet. Love the single shoe for a foot, that's cute as heck.

RATING:




WATCHMON

Similar to Compassmon, but much more than just a recolor. Watchmon has a fun face design where one hand always covers one eye (what, is it broken?) and it gets a jagged, nasty little mouth. Love how it's showing off all its other watches, and its profile says it has "an annoying personality that will not shut up when talking about the time." HE DOES ONE THING DAMN IT. LEAVE HIM ALONE.

RATING:




LIGHTMON

I'm pretty sure this is another thing all phone cameras can do now without an additional app, but I don't want to tell Lightmon that, because this simple walking lightbulb with a single, serene cyclops eye is incredibly cool and lovable for something so straightforward. Protect Lightmon at all costs.

RATING:




CALENDAMON

I love this one's design SO much! It's literally just a calendar but one page forms a pair of legs, the Appmon cables form its arms, and it has two simple, purple light eyes in its "spine!" That is ALL so dang fun to look at! It also kind of looks like it's showing off, like, in a "WORK IT, BABY" kinda way. Shake it, Calendarmon!!! Woo!!!!

RATING:




DIARIMON

I'd have expected a lazy modification to the book appmon we've seen before, but instead we get a whole new fella!Diarimon is a humanoid with a book for a head, a keyhole for an eyye and old fashioned ink pens for arms. What is it writing, though?..."MroiD?" Who the hell is MroiD?

RATING:




CAMERAMON

Hmmmm.....I dunno. I think I'd have liked another object-style Appmon for the camera app. A weird robot critter with all these lenses for eyes might have looked really cool, you know? I'm so-so on this thing.

RATING:




CALCUMON

See, this is a little more like it. A calculator robot with a big long alien head!

RATING:



SUPER GRADE


CRAFTMON

Another that's just okay. Nothing wrong with this construction robot guy, but nothing I'm gonna especially remember either.

RATING:




TIMEMON

BOOOOOOOO. Don't tell me this is supposed to be superior to Watchmon! No way! Be a watch again, Timemon!!! Stop showing off your watches and BE one!!!! COMMIT TO YOUR CONCEPT!!!!

RATING:




SCORPMON

"Scorp" mon? What does that refer to? This is some kind of monitoring or spying app or something. The entire gun sticking out of its forehead is HILARIOUS, but otherwise forgettable for me.

RATING:




ROAMON

Finally something a little more interesting, this is actually a voice change app, which is why it's two totally different birds mashed together!

RATING:



ULTIMATE GRADE


BOOTMON

Yawwwwn. Don't care about this dude.

RATING:




SHUTMON

Of course a "forced termination" App would be a silly werewolf assassin guy. Gets points mostly for the ridiculous hair.

RATING:




FAKEMON

That's more like it! Finally a spooky, villainous looking Ultimate Appmon! Fakemon is an "evil clown that creates lies to deceive the whole world" with its spoofing abilities. Cool little mask-face, cool poofy jester hat, cool all around!

RATING:
