Apple's iOS does a pretty good job at performing as an excellent mobile operating system and is debatably one of the best options available, if not the best. With that said, when it comes to the finer details of how the operating system works, users are obviously going to have differing opinions on how things should be implemented. The goal for Apple, or any similar company for that matter, is to produce something that attempts to satisfy the majority.
Imgupr is a new iPhone and iPad app that makes getting images and photos from an iOS device and into Reddit or Imgur, as easy as possible. Oh, and it's free.
It's always nice to wake up to some good news relating to the jailbreak scene, and that is exactly what has happened this morning. Continuing the tradition of keeping his fans and users informed, French researcher and jailbreak producer Pod2g has taken to his Twitter timeline to let the jailbreak loving world know that the up and coming jailbreak 5.1.1 untethered should be ready for a public outing in the next few days.
The iPhone 4 and 4S are two of the best looking smartphones on the market, with their all metal and glass finish giving an impression of class. The problem with having so much glass on a smartphone though - the iPhone 4/4S has glass on both the front and back of the device - is that it can get scratched all too easily.
Camera-based apps for Apple's iPhone aren't exactly in short supply, and while they all use the same quality of camera, the results from app to app can differ greatly. Some of the more popular ones can yield fantastic results, but the indifference of many image and photo apps mean it's always good to do a little research before parting with any money.
All the talk right now is of the next iPhone. There have been rumors about everything from whether the new handset will sport a 4G radio, to how large the screen will be this time around.
Cydia is overflowing with packages, tweaks and extensions relating to pretty much every part of iOS, but one area that hasn't really received a great deal of third-party developer attention is the Mobile Safari web browser that ships as part of the OS. Granted, it is a pretty decent web browser by default, but nothing is perfect, and like a lot of other parts of Apple's mobile operating system, it needs some work.
In my opinion, iOS developers who exist within the jailbreak community should be placed high up on a pedestal and praised for their efforts in making Apple's mobile operating system a nicer and more functional piece of software to use. Don't get me wrong, a stock installation of iOS is still an iconic piece of work, but with the help of a few carefully chosen tweaks and packages, it becomes almost perfect.
While plenty of new titles have been born of the iOS ecosystem - notably the likes of Angry Birds, Cut The Rope and Tiny Wings, there's still plenty of space in our hearts for those older, nostalgic classics. Sonic the Hedgehog is an absolute classic, particularly to those who used to love collecting those golden rings on their Sega Game Gear, and with a few titles featuring Sonic and Tails already gracing iPhones, iPads and iPod touches worldwide, the second episode to Sonic The Hedgehog 4 has just been released by Sega America.
Whether you go unsubsidized or take out a contract with one of the carriers, the purchasing of an iPhone is an expensive gig, and after paying an arm and a knee for the thing, it figures you'd also want a decent protective cover for it. This, of course, means more expenditure, and although cases and sleeves can be picked up for a couple of dollars on eBay, the ones that'll actually help shield your device from the daily grind are not only fairly pricey, but can add quite a few extra millimeters of bulk to your device's form factor.
