CityVille Holidaytown
Social games publisher Zynga has launched a new version of its CityVille iOS app with a festive theme. The mechanics remain the same, but the town you're building is now Santa's winter wonderland at the North Pole. Expect elves a-plenty. Players can unlock special items for use in the existing CityVille Hometown iOS game too.

Google Search
Not a new app, as such, but a big enough update to justify its inclusion in Apps Rush. Google's search app has been revamped for iPad, including Google Instant results, and a slide-in pane for websites found through them, viewed alongside the search results. There's a new image carousel, and instant previews of sites before you tap to visit them. But the app also provides access to the web versions of all Google's services, from Gmail and Calendar to Reader and Google Docs.
iPad
Secure Pass
Barclays Bank's new Windows Phone app doesn't overdo things when it comes to its Windows Marketplace description: "Secure Pass is a one-time passcode generation application". Basic, but potentially useful.

Wolfram Flight Information Reference App
Wolfram Alpha's latest iOS app is all about the skies: and specifically the planes that fly in them. It's a handheld way to look up flight times and details, a wealth of other stats, and a show-off feature to see what planes are overhead right now.
