According to a new report, Instagram will be launching video sharing later on this week. Facebook is holding a big idea event on Thursday, June 20th, and with Facebook having been reportedly testing a Vine-esque feature for Instagram not so long ago, it would appear as though those plans are now being put into action.
One of the angles of iOS 7 that seems to be forgotten amongst all the noise about icons and translucency is the renewed focus on Game Center and official support for third party game controller under ‘Made for iPhone’ branding. After what felt like a half-hearted attempt in the recent past, Apple now appears to be on the verge of embracing the huge number of games in the App Store.
The release of Grand Theft Auto 5, at least in gaming terms, is not too far away, and Rockstar Games has been doing everything it can to get fans excited for its September release. As has been the case for the best part of a year now, the publisher of the famed series has recently dropped a few more GTA 5 screenshots to whet the appetite, with more insight into the vehicles, weaponry and action. Check below for more details, as well as those all-important screenshots!
Designer Antonio De Rosa regularly churns out some fantastic concepts pertaining to numerous Apple products. Adding to his growing list of great designs comes an all-new iPhone 6 mockup, which looks simply stunning with its large, edge-to-edge display and touch-based home button, and it runs Apple’s iOS 7 beta. Check it out after the break, you’ll definitely love it!
The news may be dominated by the hardware coming out of Apple, Microsoft and Sony right now but that doesn't mean that we can't get excited by software anymore, and that includes websites, social networking websites to be more precise.
With the release of iOS 7 beta 1 having just occurred, the question that was posed to a huge number of iOS device owners was whether or not they should upgrade, and lose their jailbreak just to try the first beta of iOS 7. For those not aware, many of the features found in iOS 7 are accessible already via jailbreak, thus it seems almost foolish to update. For those people that rely on a jailbreak too much however, like myself, I have some good news! A few packages and tweaks have hit Cydia in the last few days which do a great job of emulating iOS 7 on a jailbroken device.
Apple's iOS 7 beta has certainly gained the headlines this week, but while we fully expect the final release to operate across the entire iOS device range, the build released a few days back is only compatible with the iPhone and iPod touch. Why is that? Well, it's because the Cupertino company is behind on compiling the version for the larger display, but on the bottom of Apple's official iOS 7 page, you can get an idea of how the home screens of both the full-size iPad and iPad mini will look once the forthcoming iOS release is able to grace it.
The stingy Xbox One used games policy has been picked apart considerably by the media and gaming world over the past couple of days, and now it has emerged that Microsoft's next-gen console may not function in unsupported countries. While Sony has stepped out and explained that the PlayStation 4 will have no issues with used games, ambiguity and uncertainty surrounds the Xbox One, and now a disclaimer posted on the Xbox.com website throws up a potential region-locking issue.
On the day of its launch, I offered very early thoughts on running iOS 7 on iPhone 5 after I had used it for less than an hour. I was still waiting for most of my 3rd-party apps to install, so I was certainly in no position to offer a proper review of the beta version of iOS 7. In fact, 3 days later, I'm still not.
The iOS 7 beta has only been out for two days, and already, the first major bug has been revealed. Jose Rodriguez, a 36 year old iPhone owner from Tenerife, has found a rather easy way to bypass the lock screen on iOS 7 beta 1 and meddle with the photos. Although bugs are expected in such an early and apparently unstable release, this revelation will no doubt send a chill down the spine of those in Cupertino, to whom this kind of issue is all too familiar.
