Now that WWDC is over, we can get back to wondering what hardware Apple will announce this year. It's a given than the iPhone 6 will be brought to market towards the last quarter of 2014, but what it will contain and how it will look is still up for debate.
The weekend is officially here, and many of us like to take this opportunity to unwind, relax, and more importantly, stock up on new apps and games. This process is made a lot easier when great, paid apps are offered for free, of course, and if you're looking for something to keep you entertained, then this great, usually-$4.99 game offers an all-action experience worthy of a spot on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch's home screen.
We're still continuing to learn new bits of information all the time with regards to iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 Yosemite, and with communication being an integral part of both of Apple's main operating systems, it should come as little surprise that both iMessage and FaceTime look set for some healthy improvements.
It's the weekend again, and arguably, the best time of the week to settle down and look for some great new apps and games. Of course, there are definitely more enjoyable things in life than downloading ordinarily paid apps for free - but not many - so join us after the break where we'll be running you through a cluster of great Android and iOS apps that have just hit that magical zero-dollar price tag.
When releasing apps, developers are obligated to be transparent regarding what personal, geographical and device-based information is accessible to said app. It also helps that developers are made to explain why these apps must perpetually check our location, for instance. With iOS 8, Apple has given the user an even better insight into what goes on behind the various UI elements, and soon, apps will need permission to continue using your location data in the background.
As we are continuing to learn following the release of the very first beta, iOS 8 is full of weird and wonderful surprises, and now it has emerged that the camera of an iPhone running the upcoming software can be used to scan in credit card details.
With WWDC rolling along quite nicely, there's been a lot of talk about how developers would use some of the newly announced tools that were announced during the big opening keynote. One of those announcements was that Apple was going to open Touch ID for use by third-party developers in iOS 8, and that immediately got people thinking.
If you've been getting stuck into some of iOS 8 beta’s new features and quirks, there are undoubtedly some that you may have missed. Apple pushed some significant changes with this new release, but there remains an abundance of lesser-known alterations and additions to the latest version. Here, we run through some of them.
We love free apps here, and every time we find good, paid apps gone absolutely free, we endeavor to share them with you, our wonderful readers. Here's another healthy selection of new apps for your downloading pleasure, so be sure to check the list after the break!
Apple's HomeKit framework may be barely a couple of days old, but there are still plenty of developers around the world who are sat pondering what they could do with such a framework.
