Theoretically, you can crack the passcode on an iPhone or iPad, but that would take you days.

New numbers show Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are steadily taking market share away from Android devices.

The iTunes App Store is packed to the gills, featuring thousands of great (and not so great) apps and games. With such a high volume of content available, users must take advantage of the various methods of finding the best, most interesting or most popular.

iOS may have been threatened by the WireLurker malware which crawled its way into devices via Macs, but at least it was a situation which was contained till China after Apple took measures to counter it.

The legality of Popcorn Time has been questioned on umpteen occasions, but those behind the development of the free-to-use service have remained dedicated to its development. In fact, over the past few months alone, it has spawned apps across several platforms, yet while iOS users are accustomed to being served before anyone else, the opposite has been true in this instance.
