As a long-time user of the iOS operating system through a number of devices, I’ve had my fair share of run-ins with the autocorrect feature, which can often decontextualize or otherwise make nonsense of my hurriedly typed messages. It can be of immense annoyance at times, but hey, it’s there to help us type in an efficient manner, so we begrudgingly persevere. However, while the system also tries to learn certain utterances we tap in on a regular basis, there appears to be a list of controversial, edgy, or potentially inflammatory phrases and words that autocorrect simply won’t autocorrect.
Newly leaked photos appear to show the budget iPhone's rear shells alongside a colorful iPhone 5 for comparison. More details can be found right after the jump.
Logic Pro X and MainStage 3 have just been released over at the Mac App Store, with an accompanying Logic Remote app having also been made available via the iTunes App Store. Logic has long since been a big player in the game of music production and audio editing, and the new Logic Pro X, which retails for the recognized price of $199, will be looking build upon this with a host of new and exciting features.
The choice of Ashton Kutcher to play the role of Steve Jobs in the upcoming indie movie concerning the life of the late, great Apple co-founder was one which, at first, did raise one or two eyebrows. But having seen the teaser trailer and stills of Kutcher on the set as the man himself, the former Punk'd presenter actually makes for a convincing representation of the former Cupertino CEO, and now, Kutcher has spoken for the first time on why he chose the role.
We've heard so many horror stories of children managing to spend small fortunes on in-app purchases when left to their own devices with an iPhone or an iPad, and we'd hoped that such things would come to an end as Apple adds more and more security with an aim of blocking such mishaps. Unfortunately, they missed one unfortunate loophole.
A new OS X malware uses standard extensions such as .pdf and .doc to disguise malicious files as basic, harmless subjects. Discovered by F-Secure, the spoof technique uses a special Unicode character found in file names that gives an app the appearance of a standard document file, and although the threat level is quite low at this point, any malware and outbreak should be treated with a dose of respect and vigilance.
Apple's iPad mini is pretty much the undisputed king of the small tablet market at this point, and with good reason. Small, light, powerful and above all backed by the App Store, the iPad mini has a lot going for it. Even with all the good though, there's one tick in the bad column that many still find impossible to ignore: the lack of a Retina display.
Every year, a new product would surface, probably a new iteration of an existing line up, that would force you to either make an upgrade to the newer model, or at least have you drool all over looking at it. Tech giants use this technique a lot to ensure that their newer products remain in demand, and the biggest example that I would say for this is the 4th generation iPad. Honestly, there’s hardly anything different in the third iteration of the iPad from the Retina display one, but still it was reason enough for a lot of people to upgrade.

The so-called budget iPhone seemed like a ridiculous concept some time ago, a notion reserved for the dreamers or otherwise deluded. But as time has gone on, the prospect of Apple creating a smartphone aimed at the budget end of the market has become a very real possibility, with various leaks and reports suggesting that such a device is indeed a part of Apple's plans.

Details after the break!
A new study by Internet auction house eBay has drawn perhaps the least surprising conclusion on our mobile usage habits, discovering that we are, collectively, addicted to apps. Having challenged 200 iPhone users to go four whole days without their favorite mobile apps, eBay found that a whopping third of participants could not go the distance, while more than half were less happy without streamlined access to their content.
