As the days count down towards Apple's big iPad event on Tuesday, October 22nd, all the preparations are underway at the venue that will play host to be big unveiling to iPad 5 and iPad mini 2.
Back last week, Microsoft announced that a Remote Desktop app for iOS and Android would be forthcoming, and staying true to that promise, and in line with today’s Windows 8.1 release, the said app for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Android has just arrived.
The iPhone launch is, for the most part, now over, and attentions have naturally turned to Apple's secondary product releases of the calendar year. The Mac Pro, which has already been officially announced, could be just a month away from release according to a report over at French Apple blog MacGeneration, which also states that both the Intel Haswell-packing MacBook Pro and new iPads will make their way to the market by the end of October.
It seems like it was just five minutes ago when excitement levels were being raised in preparation for the iPhone 5s/5c event at Apple's Cupertino campus. With that event now under wraps and firmly in the past, the company has moved onto the next chapter by sending out media invites for the October 22nd event that we believe will see the introduction of the next-generation range of iPads.
Privacy is something that is very much the hot button topic on the Internet of late, and location privacy is possibly one of the biggest things that people are most concerned about. In a world where everything can track us in one way or another, people always feel like they're winning the battle if they can maintain a little bit of privacy.
The reception of iOS 7 seems to have been one of positivity for the most part, but despite most users liking what they see, some are still finding their feet with what is easily the most changed version of Apple's mobile OS to date. One feature that some users may have presumed omitted from the fold is the .com button, which obviously makes the process of typing in most URLs just that little bit easier in Safari, but thankfully, it's still here, and in actual fact, it's not that difficult to find. Below, we've written up a short how-to tutorial on how you can find the .com shortcut and quickly return to business as usual.
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.
When it comes to RPGs, Final Fantasy may not be considered among the best like it once was, but the engrossing, almost iconic nature of the original Final Fantasy VII on the PlayStation continues to live on today. In what must go down as the most exciting news for FF fans in a good while now, Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy VI will be heading to iOS and Android later this year. Perhaps not surprising, especially given that Final Fantasy IV and V took their respective mobile bows not so long ago, but if you enjoy playing games on your iOS or Android smartphones and tablets, then you won't have to wait too long for Final Fantasy VI to arrive.
So at this point it's no secret that iOS 7 on the iPad isn't exactly as well baked as it could be. Apple started the beta process for the iPad version of iOS 7 later than it did on the iPhone and iPod touch, and many had expected it to launch later too. Instead, Apple brought iOS 7 into the public domain across all its mobile devices simultaneously, leaving those running the software on a tablet with plenty of bugs to work with.
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.
