The quality of mobile gaming is definitely improving, but some of us are old enough to remember the excitement that Nintendo's original Entertainment System (NES) and Game Boy brought into our lives. We've seen emulators galore being released over the last few weeks that bring the pleasure of the old school Nintendo experience to our iOS and Android devices, meaning that it shouldn't really come as a shock that a new Game Boy emulator from Ben Midi has appeared for iOS, Android and Windows users.
It hasn’t been a great week for Apple in terms of security. The Cupertino company is currently coming under heavy fire for a SSL security issue that was recently discovered to be present in both iOS and OS X. The software vulnerability, which is being referred to as the "goto fail" has the potential to provide malicious individuals with the ability to intercept and record data that the user believes to be secure. In addition to the "goto fail" flaw, it is now being reported that an issue has been found in iOS that makes the iPhone and iPad firmware susceptible to stealth key logging activities.
Historically, Mobile World Congress isn't the place where iOS gamers go to get the lowdown on what they're going to be itching to buy soon. Full of more Android phones than any sane person would ever want to look at as well as all kinds of things far too technical for us, iOS gaming doesn't tend to be on the agenda. Thanks to Mad Katz though, 2014 is a little different.
By now I am sure most of you will be aware of iOS 7.0.6 which was released by Apple only a few days ago to patch critical SSL connection verification vulnerability that can expose your device to man-in-the-middle attacks. All versions below 7.0.6 are affected by this bug.

We're sure this is something that's happened to you, because it's certainly something we've found ourselves doing on more than a few occasions. You've got an image or other piece of data that you can't just copy and paste, but you need to get that data into another app or simply use that as reference material for something that you're currently working on. The end result is lots of multitasking, which on an iOS device consists of double-pressing that Home button a lot and swiping around like your life depends on it. It's far from ideal, it takes too long and it's above all rather irritating.
This is just in. Apple has just released iOS 7.0.6 download for all of the newer devices. The new download is available as both OTA update and direct download for supported iPhone, iPod touch and iPad devices.
Having teased his delightful new Ayeris iOS 7 theme earlier this month, Surenix has just released it via Cydia. It offers subtle alterations from the native look, toning things down ever-so slightly for a more accomplished overall look, and if you're looking for a way to tweak your iOS 7 UI without going for the radical overhaul, then Ayeris is definitely worth looking at.
To mark the release of Rio 2,which hits theaters on April 11th, the Angry Birds Rio game has just been updated to version 2.0, complete with a brand new episode based loosely on the forthcoming sequel.
