I have been using Google Music service for months now and have found it very useful as it holds my current library on the web and allows me to access it and play it via web browser at work. For those of you using Android, like myself, it also gives ability to stream music via Bluetooth to the car audio, which is perfect for those long drives.
With the boom of the tablet and smartphone markets, allied to the various online app stores / marketplaces, many now choose to create, edit, read, export, send and receive their documents and such while on-the-fly.
We seem to do this dance every time Apple launches a major new iOS release, and iOS 5 is certainly no different. With Apple bringing iOS 5 to the party last Wednesday, pretty much the half the planet rushed off to download it, with the results being Apple's own data centers curling up into the foetal position.
Alright, so it's not exactly the night before Christmas, but for techies like us here at Redmond Pie, it's the next best thing. With tons of new software releases from Apple today, we now take a look at the just released Cards app which enables users to design and send greeting cards through their iOS devices.
iOS 5 has finally started to roll out to the masses, and along with itself, it brings loads of new features and changes which we’ve been hearing about for a long time.
As promised, Apple has just released Find My Friends app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users running iOS 5. Find My Friends app will provide iOS 5 users with a handy way of stalking each other when Facebook, Google Latitude or Foursquare just doesn't suffice.
As you will already be aware, unless you've been stuck under a rock for the last few months, iOS 5 is set to launch next week along with the iPhone 4S, and although we've looked at and covered many of the key features, there are still new ones being discovered all the time in what has been a rather turbulent week for all concerned with Apple.
Behind Mail, Mobile Safari is probably one of the most used apps on the iPhone. It's one of the joys of the iOS universe - a lightweight mobile browser that actually behaves like a proper, fully-fledged (bar Flash, obviously) desktop browser. Everyone loves it, and it works well. But it's missing one thing.
When was the last time you sent a greeting card? Most likely, you can't even remember, but Apple believes it has figured out a way to get users to go back to sending greeting cards: through their iOS devices, with a new app, named Cards.
Few could argue that Apple's failed attempt at making music social had much merit. Ping, for starters, was an awful name, and was a little too close to another semi-failed social app, Ping.fm. Of course, it was only the likes of us geeks that knew that, but that's besides the point.
