We've been heavily reliant on the WWDC logo to offer some kind of indication as to the changes to be made with iOS 7, and with just a weekend now to go before Apple's WWDC 2013 kicks off in Moscone West, the Cupertino company has confirmed the logo of the forthcoming software. As we've come to assume from the reports and rumors of late, the next version of iOS will be very much a clean-up job, and this demonstrated rather emphatically by the new logo. Take a look after the break!
When it comes to delivering a steady supply of mobile games, few put in more work than Gameloft, and not only does the publisher release a varied mix of different titles, but it is also admirably unafraid of competing with some of the industry's classics. The Gangstar series, for example, is a pretty obvious clone of Grand Theft Auto in that it copies just about every theme from Rockstar Games' most famous outlet, and today, Gameloft has just dropped Gangstar: Vegas over at Apple's App Store.
What does your iPhone case say about you? Perhaps you've never thought about it. But in actual fact, if you look between the lines, patterns and vibrant colors which envelop our treasured Apple smartphones, you may notice that actually, the specifics of a device's cover/case/shell is something people take more seriously than they'd perhaps like to admit. Mashable has put together a rather interesting, slightly humorous infographic looking into the numerous different types of cases, and what they tell people about the individual in ownership of the device. Does your iPhone case offer a fair reflection of your personality? Check the infographic after the jump for more info!
Rarely does a new tweak come along for jailbroken iPhones that not only manages to become an instant favorite amongst the community but also creates demand for the creators to extend the offering to additional devices. On the whole Cydia based tweaks generally have a fairly limited shelf life and can be thought of as disposable downloads and purchases, with only a few managing to permanently manage to capture a place on a user's liberated iOS device. The original release of Auxo for iPhone and iPod touch by A3 Tweaks instantly became one of those loved packages with the good news being that the supported device range has been extended with the dedicated Auxo for iPad now available to purchase through Cydia.
Subway is one of the most popular fast food franchises in the world, and like all major chains, it has its very own loyalty system, the SUBCARD, for those who like an Italian BMT or a Meatball Marinara on a regular basis. Those more digitally aware will have long since ditched the plastic Subcard for the official app, which offers a QR code ready to scan at the tap of a home screen icon, and today, the UK version of the app on iOS has been updated to bring integration with Apple's fledgling Passbook app. More details and download link can be found right after the jump.
According to a report over at Bloomberg, Apple is to begin an iPhone trade-in program with a little help from wireless distribution specialist Brightstar. The report cites the all-too familiar sources "with knowledge of the plans" in suggesting Apple is planning such a move, but if true, would certainly help to drive up adoption rates of the iPhone 5 as it continues to edge towards the end of its tenure as the Cupertino company's flagship device.
WWDC begins next week, and during the course of the past three or four months, we've covered literally dozens of concepts pertaining to the biggest talking point at Apple's WWDC 2013: iOS 7. Designers have been working overtime to deliver their ideas and predictions in image and video form, but concept maker Steve King has gone a step further in creating an interactive iOS 7 concept which can be tested right now on a mockup iPhone 5S on the Web.
In the light of the announcements of the Google versions of the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4, the talk about Sense and TouchWiz and their associated bloat seems to have petered out. But while an AOSP update is still on the cards for current owners of these two industry darlings, consumers still have to content with this annoying added baggage. The Galaxy S4 16GB only actually offers 9.15GB of storage once you factor in the extra apps, but a new update for German users of the Korean company's flagship smartphone brings a little, and I mean very little bit of respite.
Diablo III holds the record as the fastest selling PC game of all time, but since it tends to be only the really hardcore gamers bumping up their graphics cards and battling it out on Windows, it makes sense that such a runaway success would eventually manifest itself on console. As of September 3rd, both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 gaming fans will be able to get their Diablo III fix, with Activision Blizzard having just made the announcement of the title for the two market-leading current-gen consoles. Details after the break!
When it comes to Football, or, for the sake of those in the U.S., Australia, New Zealand and others, Soccer, Electronic Arts' FIFA series has long since been seen as the authority. Pro Evolution continues to battle away, but when it comes to September-October time of the year, most true footy fans yearn for the latest FIFA. Although we're just approaching Summer at this point, now's the time of year when EA usually begins to whet the appetites of soccer fans worldwide, and right on cue, a gameplay trailer has been released of FIFA 14.
