Apps that fall into the Health and Fitness, Medical or Lifestyle categories are always going to be some of the most popular options available on the App Store at the turn of the year. The beginning of January always seems to mark the time when people want to get their mind and body in shape and start the new year with a push towards physical fitness and improving their overall health. The runtastic Heart Rate PRO app may not offer any insight into healthy living or provide any insightful diet tips, but it does allow users to accurately measure their current resting and working rates simply by covering the rear camera lens with their finger.
It's that time of year again when technology fanatics and enthusiasts all turn their attention to CES to see what the biggest players in the game are going to introduce to the market. Companies are already starting to descend on Las Vegas in preparation of presenting their wares and we are seeing official press releases relating to new products starting to fly around. Griffin has acted quickly to take advantage of the hype with the announcement of their space-saving PowerDock 5 hardware that should revolutionize the way users charge multiple iOS devices.
Even though the iPhone 5 has only hit shelves a few months ago, Apple is for sure already looking a few generations ahead and getting ready to introduce the next iPhone model. We likely won’t hear a word from the Cupertino company for some long months, but it’s never too soon to start speculating.
iOS 6 Jailbreak For iPhone 5 Untethered Is Ready On iOS 6.0.2, Still Needs Some Work Done On iOS 6.1
Our readers here at Redmond Pie should know by now that we love everything associated with the legitimate side of iOS jailbreaking. Although we have historically had some exceptionally talented development teams working in the community to find exploits in Apple's iOS and produce fully working jailbreaks from them, it's hard to deny that things have seemed a little stale of late. For those that never lost the faith it seems that your positivity was well placed with legendary developer Planetbeing taking to Reddit to provide a little more insight on the current status of that elusive iOS 6 jailbreak for iPhone 5 and other devices.
Here at Redmond Pie we always love to see companies pumping resources into research and development of their own products, with the end goal of; evolving and providing a better solution to the end-consumer. We love it even more when that commitment to quality directly affects us and the products that we use, which is why we are extremely excited about the announcement from Corning regarding the third iteration of their widely used Gorilla Glass. Corning's Gorilla Glass 3 has been dramatically improved in all aspects, with the company intending to show off the product at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas next week.
Facebook's Messenger started out as an MSN-like instant-messaging service, but has since evolved into an all-singing, all-dancing service complete with its very own app. When it broke away from the official Facebook mobile app, some questioned the necessity of two separate entities, but as Zuck and his merry men have continued to pile on the features, it has become very clear that Messenger is worthy of its lone identity. Today, the popular app for iOS and Android have been updated with even more goodies, such as thee ability to send out voice messages, as well as call friends free of charge.
With three months having passed since the release of the iPhone 5, we've just about reached a period we can deem acceptable to begin talking of its successor. The rumors have gathered a great deal of this past week, with various analysts chiming into the argument with predictions of multiple color configurations and multiple screen sizes. Sticking with the theme of display alterations, the latest whispers suggest Apple will scrap the recently-implemented in-cell touch technology instead favoring a new “touch-on-display” technology created by Chimei Innolux.
It's fair to say that a great deal of us allow Google to handle our personal and professional email requirements, which is something that makes Gmail one of the most used electronic mailing systems in existence. Google has gone to great lengths to deliver a positive and reliable Gmail experience to users on mobile devices, something which has manifested itself in the release of increased mobile security as well as a number of native mobile Gmail apps that have grown significantly since release.
An increasing number of iOS 6 users have been experiencing difficulties with the automatic scheduling feature of Do Not Disturb that was released as part of the latest iteration of iOS. Users have been noticing that Do Not Disturb was not automatically disabling itself as per the scheduling instructions, something on which Apple has been quick to react to and issued a support article on their official support website.
The biggest names in the financial industry tend to have no qualms with delivering projection where Apple is concerned, which is, I suppose, only natural given the Cupertino's status as the most valuable company. Corroborating predictions made by Jeffries analyst Peter Misek last month, in which he indicated 6-8 different color options with the next-generation iPhone, Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White also thinks Apple may offer different screen sizes of its iconic handset.
