The Apple Watch may be waterproof to some extent, but even Apple doesn't recommend swimming while wearing it. Apple CEO Tim Cook famously claimed that he showered while wearing the smartwatch, but even though some users have reported being able to go so far as to take a swim with the device, we're not sure we would trust Apple's waterproofing quite so far.

Oliver Haslam has written about technology for over a decade. His work has been published in print at Macworld and online pretty much everywhere else. If it plugs in or has a battery, it's fair game.
Good news fellow UK dwellers, because after months of waiting to hear when Apple Pay was coming to the island we now know just when it will make its long awaited appearance, with leaked documents pegging July 14th as the big go-live.
With today being the famous 4th of July and Will Smith fighting aliens and such, we thought it might be a good time to check out some premium iOS apps and games that would have cost you a pretty penny normally, but are inexplicably currently available for the bargaintastic price of absolutely nothing. You do like bargains, don't you?
The popular f.lux jailbreak tweak has had a new beta release go live, bringing its automatic screen temperature adjustments to iOS 8.4.
You can always tell when a smartphone maker is starting to get a little worried about its flagship releases when it starts to publish new TV spots that not only bash the competition, but also manage to make as little sense as possible while doing it. Samsung is usually the king of such things, and we have TV ads from the Korean giant to prove that notion, but it's not a trait that is exclusive to the Galaxy S maker. Far from it in fact, with HTC also capable of pushing out some truly awful advertisements.
Here’s how to prepare for iOS 9 public release on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch the right way. It is set to go live this month.
It's that time again, where both Apple and Google choose an app to be made free for 7 days, with the app then returning to its previous price once the offer is over. Over the months and years we have seen some truly excellent apps represented as part of Apple's free App of the Week, with Google putting its food into the water just recently. Both Google and Apple have announced the apps that they chose for their respective app store offers this week, with both likely to prove popular.
Every once in a while you hear about someone who was lucky, or unlucky enough to have a bullet hit their random piece of technology. Often this saves their lives, with them then free to tell the tale of how someone tried to shoot them only for their Palm Pre to take the bullet for them, or any other gadget for that matter. Wonderful stories, all of them, if you take the time out to read the lot.
Here's how to fix iMessage activation issue that you might be having after using TaiG iOS 8.3 jailbreak on your iPhone or iPad.
Viber, the popular instant messaging app for iPhone has today been updated with full support for the iPad, making the app much more useful as a cross-platform messaging solution. With plenty of competition to be found in the space, not having an iPad app was a glaring omission on Viber's part. Not any longer, with Viber now amongst the long list of apps that have both iPhone and iPad support in a single binary. If you already have Viber on your iPhone, the new update also brings support for the iPad as well.
