The world has been talking about going paperless over the last few years in an attempt to reduce the strain that we are placing on the environment with all of our waste. Recycling efforts have helped reduce environmental damage but thanks to the simple but effective Paperless app, iPhone and iPod touch users can now do their bit to help save the planet and reduce personal clutter in the process. Paperless is intended to allow us to scan and save receipts in one central location, which means users don't need to carry wallets full of paper-based proof around with them.
Apple took the opportunity to add a tiny enhancement to the Camera app in iOS 6 with the addition of the native panorama feature, but although iOS panoramas have turned out to be quite successful, they in no way make up for the lack of features that some people still believe the Camera app suffers from. CameraTweak for jailbroken iPhones and iPod touches is an attempt to change that by brining a powerful set of new features to the native Camera app.
It was undoubtedly a disappointing day for the jailbreak loving world when Nicholas Allegra (Comex) publicly announced his departure from the community as a result of accepting an internship at the company he had worked so hard to circumvent in the few years prior. We will never really know if producers of jailbreak tools and tweaks do so in the hope of becoming known by Apple and ultimately offered dream employment with the Cupertino company, but after a year working the fruit Company, Allegra is officially flying solo once again.
If you were sitting back and thinking that the iOS App Store needs another photo editing app that allows you to add filters to an image from the camera roll, then today is your lucky day as we introduce you the Photo Mage app for iPhone and iPod touch. Photo Mage offers the ability to add Instagram-esque filters to images, but one of the fundamental differences over other apps of similar nature is that it concentrates only on that one feature and makes it as simple and as painless as possible for users.
The Galaxy Nexus may now be a bit of a relic in comparison to the Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note II, but it still generates quite a bit of discussion amongst Android fans. The recent Jelly Bean 4.1.2 update, which has slowly but surely been trickling through to a large portion of Galaxy Nexus owners, has seen the once Ice Cream Sandwich-inclined smartphone thrust back into the news, and in the latest, those running "takju" iterations of the handset can now get their fill of 4.1.2.
When talking about the video games industry, SEGA is a seasoned veteran, and although there's no longer a flagship console on the market, the company continues to dazzle us with remakes of those old classics.
With a mighty quad-core processor, crisp high-def display and a svelte design and form-factor, the Nexus 7 is seen as a remarkable device for its low price point, but far from perfect, consumers looking to spend small on a tablet had skimp on a few perhaps desirable features.
Although Twitter is one of the most popular social networks out there, it, like Facebook, has struggled to make its native mobile app worth downloading. While Facebook seems to finally have sorted itself out on the mobile front, the official Twitter app is, by all accounts, pretty poor, and as such, rivaling offerings from third parties continue to thrive.
There could be multiple reasons why a person would want to purchase an Android powered tablet or smartphone and then go to the lengths of using a handheld gaming controller to interact with the on-screen content. Personally speaking, I could easily imagine that Jetpack Joyride would be exhilarating if touching the display was kicked out of the equation. Whatever the reason behind wanting to introduce a gaming controller, it is now possible to get an Xbox 360 wireless controller up and running with the fantastic Nexus 7 tablet.
There are some business acquisitions that make perfect sense, some that seem a little strange but are understandable and others that we can see coming from a mile off, but the latest rumor is suggesting that Apple is in the process of acquiring Color Labs Inc. doesn't really fit into any of those categories. Color Labs is the company behind the drastic iOS and Android app called Color that managed to raise a fairly large pot of funding in 2011, but if the reports turn out to be true then it looks like the company executive have found their way out.
