Google News & Weather has just been handed a sizeable update, and among the usual array of bug fixes and performance enhancements, now includes support for iOS 8's new Notification Center widget feature. Full details, as well as that download link, can be seen below.
Major new releases of iOS tend to bring with them plenty of complaints of poor performance on older devices, and iOS 8 was no different with regard to how it ran on the iPhone 4s and iPad 2. Neither hardware is getting any younger, and with limited hardware at their disposal both the iPad 2 and iPhone 4s have been found dwindling in the old speed stakes.
The holiday season is pretty much around the corner, and as the trend goes every year, it's to be expected that we'll see a number of retailers offer a wide variety of sales and discounts on a number of items. Being a tech outlet, we have a vested interest in all things technology and gadgetry, so when we heard of a leaked flyer from Sam's Club that supposedly indicates that the wholesaler will slash the price of the new iPhone 6 by $100 starting November 15, we got excited, and we decided to share the news with you. Yup, on November 15, starting 7am local time, you can get your hands on a brand new iPhone 6 with two-year contract for just $99 for the 16GB variant!
The timing of the Pangu8 jailbreak for devices running iOS 8 has meant that those on iOS 8.0 right through to the latest public build of iOS 8.1 can enjoy the freedom of an untethered jailbreak, irrespective of whether they're rocking an iPhone, iPad or fifth-gen iPod touch. Apple has just rolled out a beta of iOS 8.1.1, which applies a number of key fixes and performance enhancements, but in a bit of disappointing news as far as the jailbreak scene is concerned, also appears to have patched some of the exploits that have allowed Pangu8 to reach so many.
Apple has released iOS 8.1.1 beta 1 download to iOS Dev Center. This is the first pre-release software since iOS 8.1 was released to public in October this year.
Using a traditional, metallic key in this day and age is not the done thing, particularly when you're staying at one of the finest hotel chains in the business. But while swipe cards and NFC fobs have been a part of the hotel scene for a long time now, Starwood Hotels is just introducing a system that allows iPhone and Apple Watch owners to securely enter and exit their rooms via Bluetooth LE.
As promised by the Pangu team, the updated Pangu 8.0-8.1.x Untether package is now available to download for those who have jailbroken their devices using Pangu8 on iOS 8 / 8.1.
Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have shattered a number of records in its first six weeks on sale, and as well as outselling every previous iPhone during these early stages, has also done a pretty good job of embarrassing Samsung and the Galaxy Note 4. Despite the strong beginning, Apple's iPhone 6 / 6 Plus roll-out is not yet fully under way, and having launched in the U.S., U.K. and several other key nations way back in September, the number of countries able to access the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus now stands at over 60. After posting exceptional figures across much of Asia - China and Korea seem to have taken very well to the Cupertino company's latest and greatest - the iPhone 6 will hit another nine countries on November 14th, the details of which you'll find below.
Jailbreaking is alive and kicking thanks to the behind the scenes work of the Pangu team, which has now announced via Twitter that version 0.4 of its Pangu 8.0-8.1.x Untether package will be available shortly.
The Pangu Untether package version 0.3 has just been re-released on Cydia. This package was initially released yesterday, mainly for 32-bit devices, to fix overheating and over usage of CPU. But immediately after the release, the package was found to cause booting issues on some 64-bit devices and hence was immediately removed from Cydia.
