This is the time of the year when we sit pretty much in the middle of when the current version of the iPad was released and when the industry expects the next generation device to be launched. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that the rumor mill is working on overtime with alleged leaked information, images and specifications popping up all over the web.
While iOS offers a far superior user-experience than mobile operating systems like Android, it does have some pretty annoying limitations. One of these limitations is its issues with handling compressed file-types like .zip, .rar etc. There are plenty of third-party solutions to this, and Zip Browser is one of the best. The app has gone free for a limited period and we’ve discussed its amazing features after the jump!
Apple's launch of Siri certainly made people sit up and take notice. There had been voice recognition and dictation apps before, even Siri in its earliest incarnation was a standalone app that offered some of the features we all now take for granted from our iPhone 4S devices.
One thing that never ceases to amaze me is the level of creativity that developers seem to muster up in order to bypass the restrictions imposed upon them by the Apple developer guidelines. In the past month alone we have seen a number of popular applications accepted into the App Store and then subsequently be pulled from sale by Apple due to a breach of the guidelines.
The Android versus iOS debate will never end. The two operating systems have their die hard fans who will argue until they are blue in the face about why their chosen OS is better than its rivals. No matter which side of the fence you sit on, I'm sure any reasonable person can concede that each operating system has its plus points.
When one considers Facebook’s colossal billion-approaching army of regular e-socializers, the fact its chat feature hasn’t really taken off has left many analysts scratching their heads in confusion.
We’ve seen facial recognition technology before as an optional tweak for the jailbroken iPhone. It never really took off; the interface was clunky and it was hit or miss. According to a patent filed by Apple, it may now be an official feature for the next lineup of iPhones and iPads.
After a couple of months anxiously waiting, the very first iOS 5 untethered jailbreak arrived in a blaze of glory just two day ago, and techies far and wide running Apple’s latest mobile OS duly obliged to the calling of the iPhone Dev Team’s ever-reliable utility.
According to a report published earlier today, Apple is slated to unveil two new iPads next month. Details available after the jump!
Since the public release of iOS 5 in October, a number of tweaks have appeared on Cydia which offer the ability to hook into iOS 5-only functions, with the most popular by far being the the new Notification Center. I can only assume most developers have been literally chomping at the bit to put their skills to the test in order to see what they can do with the new Siri technology.
