Of all the areas of our smartphones we'd call the most precious, text messages would be somewhere near the summit. On top of that, it's one of those segments we like to keep the most private - obscured from the eyes of those prying brown-nosers.
The good people over at eFusion have introduced an application to the App Store which offers the ability for users to record conversations which are taking place via services such as Skype, or through the use of other Voice Over IP services such as the iOS Viber application. The application is called SkyRecorder, and is predominantly aimed at people who find themselves on a VoIP call and need to take down notes but are unable to for whatever reason.
First it was iBooks, then came Newsstand, and now Apple has even thrown iTunes U - its attempt at cornering the textbook market - into the mix.
When using a PC or Mac, you can readily configure iTunes, VLC or your media player of choice to deliver a little bubble or popup whenever a new song played. Some like it, others don’t.
Siri has arguably been the main focal point of iOS 5 since Apple’s latest and greatest mobile operating system dropped in mid-October of last year.
Even though iOS is pretty easy on the eye for the most part, our tinkering nature entices us to make certain visual changes in order to make things a little more to our liking.
Although iOS is renowned for being a smooth and invariably seamless mobile experience, it does lack many customization features which would render it a more 'complete' operating system.
We are getting extremely close to the saturation stage in Cydia, where developers are having a difficult time creating new and unique tweaks which haven't already been thought of. With that being the case, jailbreak devs tend to be really creative and inventive or attempt to improve upon an existing solution by coming up with a better implementation of something that already exists.
I make no secret of the fact that I am a massive jailbreak enthusiast. I have owned every iPhone since 2007, and both iPads and have eagerly jailbroken each and everyone of them as soon as the relevant tools are released or updated for the new devices and firmwares. I do it not just for the sake of it, but because I genuinely believe a number of tweaks and modifications which exist in Cydia enhance iOS and make it the best mobile operating system available.
With our cherished mobile gadgets now packing in very decent cameras, many have opted to ditch the unnecessary pocket-fill of the traditional standalone camera.
