When Apple first made iOS 6 available to the public, it managed to open a floodgate of criticism that mainly centered on aspects of the firmware which consumers felt weren't ready for the prime time use. After a public apology signed by Apple CEO Tim Cook, an internal corporate restructure and a few point releases to the OS; the controversy seemed to have died down. However, when you're at the top of the food chain, things are never quiet, with Apple now coming under fire for inadequacies found in iOS 6.1, first with connectivity issues on iPhone 4S, which were fixed quickly in iOS 6.1.1, then with battery life, flaw in Passcode Lock Screen, and now with an issue with Exchange support.
Yesterday, we learned that the highly anticipated car racing simulator Real Racing 3 would be arriving for iOS and Android at the end of the month. However, what we didn't know was that EA had plans to release it earlier for some than others, thus it comes as a great surprise to see the title pop up in the App Store of those in Australia and New Zealand.
Electronic Arts has announced that the third release from its popular Real Racing series will be landing at the Google Play Store for Android, and the App Store for iOS, as of the 28th February. The iPhone 5 launch gave us a glimpse of things to come from Real Racing 3, but while the snippets appeared remnant of Gran Turismo, fans have had to wait quite a while for a solid release date. Now, the wait appears to be almost over, and by the end of the month - provided no unforeseen delays crop up - the mobile arena's favorite racer will be back for a third lap.
Users of Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod touch could be set to receive a new iOS update for their devices, with the news that the company is working on an update that it hopes will eradicate some of the issues that have cropped up with the recent iOS 6.1 release.
As of this writing, the iPad has been, and will probably remain, the undisputed champion of the tablet arena. Initially perceived as and mocked at being a blown up version of the already-successful iPhone, Appe’s tablet introduced the world to a product that existed for quite a while, but was never able to gain popularity with the mainstream user. Of course, the fact that Apple already had a pretty good software ecosystem going on in the form of the iTunes App Store didn’t hurt, but the iPad has a certain degree of comfort that you only wish for with other similar products.
Apple has just seeded iOS 6.1.1 beta 1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. It is available for download now for developers registered on the iOS Dev Center.
The iPad leads a fleet of tablet devices in the market, and although each vendor seems to have a different idea of what exactly a tablet should or should not entail, all seem in agree-ance of the fact that tablets are 'post-PC' devices. The market is certainly beginning to grow used to the lack of a physical keyboard -- a prominent feature of the PC arrangement - but traditionalists still much prefer the feeling of tapping on keys, and as such, the keyboard as we have always known it is still in wide circulation. Most of the market's most popular slabs have some ultra-thin variation of keyboard cover, and joining the handful of options already available for owners of Apple's iPad mini, Logitech has just announced its own svelte, $79 offering called 'Ultrathin', with pre-orders starting now.
The need for a 128GB iPad has divided opinions, especially considering it has been introduced mid-schedule, but the latest Apple slate is now officially for sale through the Apple Online Store and physical retail outlets.
The iOS 6 / 6.1 untethered jailbreak has now become a reality, thanks to the hard work from those involved in the newly formed Evad3rs jailbreak team. The release of the new userland-based Evasi0n jailbreak tool means that users now have an extremely efficient way of making a complicated background process seem extremely simple.
Those looking to jailbreak their iOS devices can rejoice, since a new tool named Evasi0n has just been released by the Evad3rs team which allows for an iOS 6.1 untethered jailbreak on almost all of the devices.
