The official Facebook app for iPad has just been updated, adding a few intriguing new features that allow gamers to discover titles they may be wish to play, as well as entertainment topics that may pique their interest. There's also an all-new column on the right-hand side that makes the whole app a tad easier to navigate in landscape mode, and its presence follows a similar feature implemented to the desktop version of Facebook earlier this year.
If you like to watch movies and TV shows on your iPhone or iPad, then you're going to want to know about an app that's normally paid-for but now free for a short time.
In Apple's ongoing effort to offer an integrated, mutually intelligible experience between iOS and OS X, the fruit company took the wraps off its Continuity movement at the Worldwide Developers Conference earlier this month. But while the features encompassed by the Continuity umbrella term, such as Handoff, sound as though they're going to be beneficial to Apple's ecosystem as a whole, some older Macs running on OS X 10.10 Yosemite and iDevices running iOS 8 mightn't be able to take advantage due to the integral role that Bluetooth 4.0 (LE) plays.
The iPhone 6 rumor mill is showing no signs of slowing down, and even though we're fairly sure that Apple is plotting two new iPhones with considerably larger displays than the current 4-inch panel of the iPhone 5s, it is now being offered that the resolution will clock in at a whopping 2560 x 1440.
Valve's Steam Machine project is an interesting one as far as the age-old problem of making PC gaming mainstream goes. The reason people like console gaming has always been the plug-and-play nature of the systems, with no configuration or upgrading needed. Steam Machines are supposed to help close the gap between consoles and PCs by packaging machines in fancy boxes that won't look out of place next to a television, but what if you want to game on the go?
Apple is in for a busy year, especially if all the devices it is rumored to have in the pipeline turn out to be real. One of those devices is the fabled iWatch, and it seems to be getting more and more real by the day.
The iPhone's camera tends always to be among the best in the business, and with the iPhone 6, this trend will continue if reports pertaining to the upcoming handset are to be believed. But with a few months to go until Apple showcases the next best thing, we've still got a very solid shooter in the rear-facing lens of the iPhone 5s, and one YouTube channel has sought to help you get the very most out of this great snapper with a run-down of ten tricks that you probably didn't know about.
It's the weekend again, and even though many of you will be too wrapped up in the goings on with the World Cup to worry too much about great apps and games gone free for iOS, we thought we'd throw out a selection of our favorite deals for those who aren't completely glued to their TV sets. There are five in all, and as ever, the range is fairly broad, so check out he list and hopefully, you'll stumble across something you like!
The photography industry has been turned completely on its head by the emergence of smartphones packing genuinely decent shooters, and while your old, pro camera may boast plenty of features and lenses that the modern-day point-and-shoot experience simply cannot cater to, it's fair to say that there are many distinct advantages that a smartphone can laud over a standalone. Connectivity, for example, is something that cameras have only recently gotten to grips with, and as well as ease-of-sharing, owners of today's popular handsets can geo-tag every picture they take with ease. With a little bit of fiddling around, though, iPhone and iPad users can bring this useful feature to any camera, and if you'd like to turn your dumb camera into a smart one, it's actually quite easy to set up.
Samsung's announcement of the Galaxy S5 at Mobile World Congress was met with disappointment by some, and although the response since the release - in terms of both sales and acclaim - has put any early doubts from the naysayers well and truly to bed, this hasn't prevented reports from pointing to a bigger, badder, "Prime" follow-up.
