If you've ever set foot in an Apple Store, the chances are you've experienced the hugely irritating situation of knowing exactly what you want to buy – often having it in your sweaty little hands at the time – but being unable to get hold of a store employee to ring it up for you.
People take privacy on Facebook very, very seriously, and for good reason. You don't want people seeing things that you thought were private, or a larger group of people seeing something that you though was only visible to a select few.
We've said it before, and we're not afraid to say it again and if required, once more. Notification Center is quite possibly one of the most important additions to iOS since multitasking and, ironically, it's also one of the most underused aspects of Apple's latest release.
Last week, a new sort of jailbreak for iOS 5 popped up in the form of a Cydia package – named SemiTether – which you could install after performing a tethered jailbreak using Redsn0w/Sn0wbreeze. This package, once installed, would allow users to reboot their tethered-jailbroken iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with limited functionality without having to connect your device to a computer. SemiTether has received a big update today and it is what we’ll be talking about in this post.
What's better than one iPad? Well, two iPads, of course! What's better than two iPads? Two iPads and a case – a case that helps children is even better than any of that, and that's just what we have here!
Apple's latest big thing is undoubtedly Siri, the digital assistant locked deep inside the new iPhone 4S. As soon as people began getting their hands on the iPhone 4S and, more specifically, Siri, they started to ask her (or him) increasingly random questions, just to see what the response was.
Apple appears to still be in the market to revamp iOS Maps and get away from Google's back-end. With the recent purchase of 3D Mapping company C3 Technologies, they may just do that!
As simple a service as Twitter may be, sending out tweets isn’t. On iOS, you have to launch a Twitter app, tap a button to activate the tweet-input box, face unnecessary information and, finally, tap the Send button.
If there's been one polarizing feature of iOS 5, beyond the Notification Center that just won't stop notifying, and a battery issue that drains juice faster than a 4G Android phone, it's the lack of an iPod app.
With iOS 5 bringing a lot more sophistication to the experience of using an iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, we can only but hope that the jailbreak community does likewise, upping the ante in order to really take advantage of the new options available within Apple's latest mobile OS.
