If you ever needed proof that a smartphone doesn't need to be hacked in order for it to cause chaos, then this is probably it. After reports of iPhones being held to ransom started popping up across Australia and being posted to the Apple support forums, people started asking questions. Now it seems this problem has reached the shores of the United States, and the number of reported cases of iPhones being held to ransom is continuing to increase. So what's actually happening?
Apple's Touch ID technology may currently be something that is only enjoyed by those carrying an iPhone 5s, but according to the latest report coming out of KGI Research, that should be about to change.
With reports having already indicated that Apple's WWDC 2014 keynote will see the company unveil some new hardware along with the perceived formality of OS X 10.10 and iOS 8, the Cupertino giant has just announced that the initial announcement show-piece will be streamed live to those on Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Apple TV. In updating the WWDC site, Apple also alludes to some "exciting announcements," and although we don't know precisely what's in store just yet, we can't wait for Tim Cook and co. to tell all.
Even though Apple likes to remain tight-lipped in the run-up to any new product release, retailers, suppliers and carriers often - accidentally or otherwise - permit us to breach that veil of secrecy.

Even though we've the distraction of two brand new consoles, Google Glass, Flappy Bird and all of the other weird and wonderful goings-on in the world of tech, the details of Apple's next smartphone effort continue to dominate the headlines. But while most of us techies are pretty clued-in with the latest reports, speculation and conjecture, how would the general public of New York City react to a dummy iPhone 6? One group of vloggers sought to find the answer to this very question.
One of the more noteworthy announcements anticipated from next week's WWDC will be that of the Healthbook suite.

Today is, as may of you will be more than aware, Memorial Day, and to mark the occasion, several developers have offered their apps completely free of charge. Given that these are limited-time offers for the most part, you will need to get in quickly if you don't want to miss out, and with seven very highly-regarded titles making our list here today, we're certain you'll be snapping all of them up.
Apple's stock Contacts app on iOS may be functional, but it's not exactly the most interesting apps around. Sure, you can find who you need and then call, text or email them with the minimum of fuss, but it's not really as exciting to use as some of the other solutions out there. If you're someone who lives in the Contacts app, then it can get pretty boring, pretty quickly.
