Apps that allow users to quickly and efficiently edit photographs on their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch have always been popular offerings in the App Store, and as of this week, there is a new pretender to the throne in the form of the Gridditor app from Tai Shimizu. Gridditor lives within the Photography section and allows users to quickly edit and organize photographs in an attractive interface that manages to throw up some excellent filter combinations.
If you've been paying attention to the official T-Mobile Twitter account then you will probably be aware of the unexpected but not so surprising announcement which they made last night. It seems that consumers are falling over themselves to get their hands on Apple's sixth-generation iPhone, but it's actually the Samsung Galaxy S III that has been breaking records on the T-Mobile network.
If you can't bring yourself to believe that Internet Explorer 9 is one of the best looking, fastest and safest desktop browsing experiences available then worry not as it looks like you aren't alone in your thoughts. Internet Explorer is undoubtedly one of the most - if not the most - widely known browsing software available today, and once upon a time it was pretty much the accepted choice for those wanting to browse the web. The last few year’s browser trends usage statistics have shown us that IE has been losing its once dominant hold over users, with the latest surveys in August of this year showing that 16.2% of browsers do so though Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
The smartphone world may be dominated by Android, iOS and Windows Phone at the minute, but it wasn't always that way. There was a time when webOS was around and was deemed to be probably one of the best and most accomplished mobile operating systems available to users. Unfortunately, those days are long gone, and when HP acquired the software from Palm, its end was somewhat inevitable. Let's not try to get sad over the long gone days, and all is not lost, since the source code of webOS is now available for all to have and consume.
A couple of years back, before rooting of an Android device had advanced to the stage it's at now, many used to pursue the rooting of their handset without unlocking the bootloader. Nowadays, it is generally an accepted prerequisite, but in the early Nexus One era, for example, bootloaders couldn't be "re-locked" once unlocking had taken place, so alternative methods were frequently sought. If you are in ownership of the Samsung-made Galaxy Nexus, you'll be pleased to know that now it can also be rooted without the unlocking of the bootloader.
While only a very tiny fraction of Android smartphones are running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, rumors and reports of the next version of Google’s popular mobile platform are starting to emerge online.
If you've ever been interested in the stock market, but have found many of the readings and jargon difficult to grasp, then you're certainly not alone, and as well as offering up-to-date information around the clock, StockTouch for iOS aids to break things down for those feeling somewhat intimidated by your traditional stock apps.
Sources of MacRumors cite a tip from a developer in suggesting the next-generation iPad could be packing in Apple's new dual-core A6 processor, or a variation of that chip. The developer is said to have spotted signs of an "iPad3,6" device showing up in his app analytics - a model previously unknown. The device, which, taking into consideration the name, we'll presume to be an iPad, targets the new ARMv7s architecture used within the A6 SoC Apple has just showcased as powering the iPhone 5.
Apple's Maps app, which, in case you hadn't already heard, was released two weeks ago along with iOS 6, has quite a great deal wrong with it, and one of the key concerns of consumers is its lack of accuracy. Those accustomed to Google Maps may have been able to excuse many of Apple Maps' other flaws and imperfections, but a mapping application strewn with error and falling short on delivering pinpoint results serves as little use to man or beast.
It may not be everyone's favorite subject but mathematics is integral to the world around us and plays a part in all of our lives in some form or another. Giving the importance of the topic, it makes perfect sense that mobile devices like the iPhone and iPad will have some pretty powerful and complex apps that allow us to learn math and assist in problem solving techniques. Named after the legendary Greek Mathematician, the Archimedes app for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad is one of those such creations.
