It's become customary for big new movies to be accompanied by a mobile title, which offers fans supplementary entertainment whilst also ramping up promotion. We're still a couple of weeks away from the box office début of Dwayne Johnson's Hercules movie, but already, we have an action-packed iOS / Android game on our hands, the details of which you can find below.
Although the headlines have largely been dominated by the iPhone 6, we're also expecting Apple to roll out a refresh for both the iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina display at some point during the fall. Hitherto, we've seen quite a few mockups offering a glimpse into some of the new features, including an improved Touch ID fingerprint sensor for each, and now, thanks to some high-res images, we can take an even closer look at how the iPad Air 2 stands up against its would-be predecessor.
We do our level best to keep the deals rolling through, and yet again, we're back with a bunch of great freebies for those in ownership of an iOS device. There are seven in total, so join us inside, where you'll find all of the relevant details and of course, those all-important download links.
Facebook has, in more recent times, sought to diversify its range of mobile apps, and in doing so, decided to separate the messaging component the official Facebook into a standalone, Facebook Messenger app. The move has worked very much to the benefit of the Facebook experience as a whole, but while the iPhone version has been knocking around for quite a while, the iPad version has been conspicuous by its absence. Now, though, the Menlo Park firm has rolled out a version tailored to Apple's prized tablet, and below, we've got all of the details.
It’s that time of the day again, where we go on a hunt for the best free apps available for the iPhone or iPad.

The offerings that we have today include 6 paid apps available for zero bucks, with two of them being dedicated iPad titles. Let’s see what you can get your hands on today right after the jump.
Civilization Revolution has taken the mobile world by storm, with strategy fans having downloaded the popular title en masse since its original release.

Although we're always on the lookout for useful apps, it's often nice to kick back and enjoy a little game time, particularly after a long and productive day. Recently, we've brought a series of great app deals on iOS and Android, and to keep things nice and balanced, we're today sharing news of a very enjoyable, $6.99 title that has just gone free of charge over at the App Store. It has been the subject of price drops in the past, but never has it hit the magic zero-dollar mark, and below, we've got the low-down.
Apple has once again launched its Back To School promotional program, offering great deals to students looking to invest in a new Mac, iPhone or iPad. Those qualifying can expect a $100 Apple Store gift card with any Mac purchase, although this excludes the Mac mini, while students can also score themselves a $50 gift card when buying an iPhone or iPad. Whereas, in previous times, Apple has offered iTunes Store cards of similar value, this deal means that a user can spend the credit on peripherals, software, cases, and other such effects.
Apple's iTunes U, an app dedicated to helping students, has joined the rather unflattering list of largely forgotten apps and services out of Cupertino. But despite not having taken off in quite the manner that Apple would have hoped, the fruit company has today announced an update, which includes a multitude of new features and services that will begin to roll out as of next week. Full details, as ever, can be seen below.
Over the weekend, we brought you whole bunch of great iOS apps gone free, and to kick off this week, we're back with half a dozen more. As ever, you'll find the descriptions, original prices and download links below, so join us after the leap.
