Apple iOS 8 [Review]

Oliver Haslam·September 18, 2014

Another year, another update to iOS. And while things may look pretty much the same on the face of it, iOS 8 is well worth everyone's time. While iOS 7 was a big departure from what we were used to in regards to aesthetics, iOS 8 goes another route, this time preferring to take a scalpel to the operating system's innards rather than its exterior.

iOS 8 SMS Continuity Feature Will Be Available Next Month

Ben Reid·September 13, 2014

Apple took the wraps off a number of great software features at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference, and among them, Continuity seeks to allow users to work between devices with as few seams as possible. Incorporating OS X Yosemite as well as iOS 8, Continuity has promised to strengthen ties between Apple's two major platforms, and SMS Continuity, which allows SMS and MMS messages to be managed through the Messages app on iPad and Mac, is one of the most useful of them all. Unfortunately, though, this feature will not roll out until next month, meaning that while iOS 8 is just days away, SMS Continuity won't make the initial cut.

How To Find Out iMessage Cellular Data Usage Stats On iPhone

Ben Reid·September 1, 2014

If you happen to be on a capped data plan, you'll know all about using certain apps sparingly while monitoring roaming settings like a hawk. But while it's seemingly obvious that a YouTube binge is going to quickly use up that precious quota, Apple's iMessage is a comparatively silent culprit. After all, you can send images, videos, audio clips and text with relative ease, and unlike with WhatsApp and others, they're not heavily compressed. If you want to keep abreast of iMessage's data-usage habits, checking the amount of cellular MBs used is possible at stock level, and although the feature is a little obscure, you can easily access it with just a little bit of navigation.

Apple Rolls Out iOS 8 Beta 6, Here’s The Changelog

Ben Reid·August 20, 2014

Apple has just seeded iOS 8 beta 6 to testing partners, and in a decision apparently taken due to the imminent nature of the GM release, the tech giant has opted not to seed this one to developer. It's usually the case that beta releases can be downloaded and tested out by those subbed to the Developer Program, but with the public release of iOS 8 now just a matter of weeks away, this sixth beta is preserved only for testing partners.

Pangu 1.2.1 Jailbreak Tool For Windows Released To Fix Crashing Issue

Ben Reid·August 12, 2014

The Pangu jailbreaking tool, which covers iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users running iOS 7.1 right up to the current 7.1.2, has just been updated to version 1.2.1 for Windows. The bump fixes a minor issue that would cause crashes with some Windows users, and so if you do plan to jailbreak any of your devices on a Windows PC, then grabbing the very latest version would be very much advised.

Evasi0n and Pangu Jailbreaks Nominated For 2014 Pwnie Award, Which One Should Win? [POLL]

Ben Reid·August 5, 2014

To get one untethered jailbreak per major iOS release is a blessing in itself, but even though the job of the jailbreaking scene gets more difficult with each year that passes by, the fact that Evad3rs and Pangu both dropped untethered jailbreaks for iOS 7 was nothing short of heroic. Evad3rs' Evasi0n tool took care of iOS 7.0.x, and when this was eventually plugged, the self-titled tool from the Pangu team took care of iOS 7.1.x. Now, both are up for a Pwnie award in the ‘Best Privilege Escalation Bug’ category, a gathering that highlights the work of those in the field of security research, and although we've no personal affinity to one over the other, we'd certainly love to see a jailbreak team yield such acclaim.
