The new and updated iWork and iLife apps for iOS and Mac are now live in the App Store and Mac App Store, respectively, and are now available to download. More details and direct download links can be found right here.
Today has been a reasonably busy day for Apple, and among all of the new hardware and exciting products, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company has released updated version of its iWork and iLife apps for both iOS and OS X, covering iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand, Keynote, Numbers and Pages. Although Apple has been doing its utmost to promote its in-house range of apps in recent times - no less by making them free to those picking up an iOS 7-enabled device - the apps themselves have felt as though they've been caught in a time warp, but with newly-designed icons, cleaner UI and plenty of features besides, Apple's famed work and play suites now look very much in-keeping with the recently-released iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks.
Apple and technology fans alike are highly anticipating the introduction of the new iPad lineup at tomorrow's Apple media event. The tagline of the official event invitation suggests that Tim Cook and his team has a lot to talk about, with the update to the official Apple website giving more than a little indication what the company's iLife and iWork range of iOS apps will feature on the agenda at some point.
Apple's recent migration to iOS 7 has pretty much guaranteed that any developer who sees a future in their mobile software will be pushing out an update that brings a minimum of visual changes. We've already seen a number of Google's App Store offerings going through the update process, but today is the turn of the extremely popular Hangouts app that has been revised to version 1.3.0.
For a company that will ultimately live or die based on the interest shown in their product by the iOS community, it is vitally important to have a strong relationship with Apple Inc. In the case of Anki it can be pretty much be assumed that their bond with the Californian giants is relatively strong considering they were asked to unveil their maiden product - the Anki Drive - during the keynote speech of this year's Worldwide Developer Conference. That first Anki product managed to generate a lot of interest and it's now been announced that the innovative hardware will be available to purchase on October 23rd.
Seb Vettel may have already pretty much sewn up the Formula One driver's championship for this season, but for true F1 fans, the fun is only just beginning. F1 Challenge has just made its way to the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users, and with surprisingly few decent titles available to those who love the all-action, adrenaline-pumping nature of the world's most popular motor sport, it's something of a messiah. Catch the details, as well as the download link, after the break.
We're now just a matter of a month away from seeing Call of Duty: Ghosts' big release, and in the build-up to the very significant date in the gaming calendar, publisher Activision dropped Call of Duty: Strike Team last month for those on iOS. Today, the title has been given a healthy update, bringing support for the all-new iPhone 5s as well as unlocking Survival Mode maps for all players. You can check all of the details, as well as the download link, right after the break.
As well as dropping a tidily updated Infuse version 1.5 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users, creators FireCore have also taken the wraps off Infuse 2, which will be a free update for current users later on this year. As detailed in an official blog post on the matter, the app is in the process of being reworked from the ground up, and with an already impressive app that has yielded Infuse a steady army of fans, we sure cannot wait to see if version 2 lives up to the hype.
It has taken a fairly long time for Microsoft's Office suite to reach the mobile scene, and even though the launches for iOS and Android are now official, the Redmond company neglected to bring support for Apple's iPad right off the bat. Outgoing Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has assured iPad users that touch support for the larger displays of Apple's iDevice is forthcoming, adding that work is "in progress," and that users can still access Office Web Apps using their browser.
Microsoft has become the latest in a long list of large developers to update one of their native mobile apps for iOS 7. The Redmond company's latest update to the Skype app for iPhone and iPad is currently propagating its way through the App Store and brings the revamped and refreshed user-interface that we have come to expect from an iOS 7 app.
