Facebook is already the biggest social network on the planet, but that doesn't mean it has everything its own way. For every user that actively updates their feeds with new content for their friends to read, there must be many, many more that simply visit Facebook in order to keep up with what their old school pals are doing.
It may have taken the Cupertino based company a while to get there, but Apple has officially rolled out two-step verification for those users who have an active Apple ID (iTunes, App Store, iCloud etc). The initiative is essentially a process that makes it a lot more difficult for those with scrupulous morals to get access to someone else's Apple ID by implementing an additional security element. Those who are keen to implement an additional security layer will find that making purchases or logging into the ID on a new device will trigger an authentication process that takes the shape of a four-digit code entry.
Moment Camera For iPhone Is A Charming Alternative Snapper With A Beautiful And Clean User Interface
With so many alternative offerings to the stock iOS Camera app available throughout the App Store, it's becoming increasingly difficult for developers to bring something new and unique to the table. Today, I stumbled across Moment Camera, and although its feature set isn't as expansive as a lot of point-and-shoot utilities, it has a beautiful, clean, and minimalistic UI which renders it well worth checking out.
When it comes to testing the speed of one's internet connection, few do it better than Speedtest.net for obvious reasons. The site has long since been a portal for providing accurate speed tests, and in more recent times, its mobile app has helped those on-the-fly to detect the speed of their cellular data or connected hotspot. Today, the iOS Speedtest.net app has been given a significant update, and as well as belated support and optimization for Apple's iPhone 5, there's now the option to remove the ads by means of a 99 cent in-app purchase. Details, as well as the download link, are coming up right after the break.
As a music fanatic, I am always looking for new ways to enjoy my favorite artists on my mobile devices. For me, it's all about minimalism and functionality, and it's a motif to which the awesomely-named developer WhazCool also appears to subscribe. Its MorningTunes app is not only striking in terms of UI, but actually proposes a very intuitive system which purports to understand your collection of music.
Whether you like a nice, small smartphone or a tablet-like behemoth is very much a personal decision. Some like to have huge 6-inch screens in the palm of their hands, whilst others think that the 4-inch display of pre fifth-generation iPhones is still the sweet spot. People will never agree on which is best, nor should they ever need to.
If you have ever been in a situation where you've needed to time something, or see how long it takes a friend to perform a certain task, the taking out your iPhone, launching the Clock app and jumping into the Stopwatch time is in itself a time consuming task. Granted, this may have only happened to an extremely small subset of iOS users, but a problem solved is still a problem solved, and thankfully, this niche problematic situation has been eradicated for jailbroken users thanks to the Stoppur tweak.
We are getting close to that time of the year again when speculation surrounding the next-generation iPhone hardware starts to intensify. We've recently seen Samsung announce the Galaxy S4 smartphone, which may not offer much in terms of visual innovation, but definitely packs a punch when it comes to internal hardware and specifications. Those who are coming to the end of their current minimum-term contracts will be debating whether or not to snap up the latest flagship Android device from Samsung, or wait to see what Apple has in store for us with the new iPhone, or the iPhone 5S.
Final Fantasy V is headed to iOS and Android devices in Japan before the end of the month, and although there's no word on the official release for fans residing in the United States, it would seem likely to follow shortly thereafter.
An early morning alarm is by far the worst thing that can happen to a person during their day. Unfortunately, most of us have to attend work, school or some other pressing engagement which means that they are one of life's necessary evils to wake us from our overnight slumber. Still, just because the majority of us hate the morning alarm, it doesn't mean that those of us who are jailbroken can't add a little extra pizazz to that wake-up call, does it? Thankfully, Cydia has our back once again with the relatively new Wake Info package.
