Launcher, a popular widget that offered users the ability to add a number of quick, convenient shortcuts, was hastily removed from the App Store as quickly as it arrived back in September. The reason behind its ousting was to do with Apple not liking the manner of Launcher's functionality, with the Cupertino's App Store moderation concluding that it wasn't appropriate. However, it seems that Apple has now reversed this decision, and the much-celebrated Today widget app can be downloaded and used once again. More info, as well as the direct download link, can be seen below.

The native Camera app for iOS is bundled with a decent supply of features, but it's still lacking in many key areas.

If you fancy yourself as a bit of an amateur photographer, then you should really have Camera+ in your repertoire, especially given the new features that have just been added to the iconic point-and-shoot app. More details on the changes, as well as the direct download link, can be seen below.
Google's Android Wear has been designed in a way that suits the search giant, and as such, products like Apple's iPhone are not officially supported. This will probably change at some point in the future as the watch-tailored version of Google's platform matures, but for the time being, any integration between iOS and Android Wear takes quite a bit of effort and, usually, a jailbreak. One developer has managed to get Android Wear answering iPhone calls without the intervention of a jailbreak, though, and with a demonstration video also supplied as proof, we get, perhaps, a preview of how Android Wear and the iPhone may eventually interact.
