I am pretty sure that if you search hard enough, the Cydia store will be able to produce an extension or tweak for pretty much any kind of situation that you can image. It is literally packed to the rafters with packages, with revblaze's HTML Editor being one of the latest commercial apps to land on the ModMyi repository.
Did you have to deal with issues brought about the Antennagate scandal plaguing the first batch of iPhone 4 devices? If you were, or indeed still are an owner of an original iPhone 4, you can request a $15 settlement from Apple.
It's almost that time again; work on Apple's next iPhone release is well underway, and, according to a report from a local news outlet in China, the Foxconn factory in Taiyuan wishes to hire around 20,000 employees to specifically work on the next-generation iPhone. The report notes that the factory is "urgently" in need of this massive workforce to meet demand for production. This should come as no surprise; we'll likely hear more about Foxconn factories expanding and hiring workers in preparation for the big release.
Although Apple pushed out iOS 5.1 along with the release of the new iPad earlier this month, it didn't really bring any earth shattering changes to delight the iOS user community. One of the additions that Tim Cook and his team talked about is the fact that they have removed the option to double tap the Home button on the lockscreen to display a camera shortcut button in favor of permanently displaying a camera icon that reacts to a swipe up gesture.
The iPhone is a bit of an all rounder, that it handles its core purpose extremely well, while managing to carry out a whole host of other tasks. However, that doesn't mean that it doesn't have its fair share of issues.
Users of a Mac, or even a Windows-based PC, will be aware of the fact that you can flick between running apps by using the command/Alt and Tab buttons together. A quick press of these two buttons will flick to the last viewed app and back again. However, if you hold the buttons down together, a nice little view is overlaid on the screen which shows all of the running apps and allows the user to toggle between them all and choose one quickly. An iOS developer known as coffeejayyy has decided to make an iOS implementation of that feature and has called it CmdTab, available in Cydia now.
One of the most favored update to be implemented into a new build of iOS has to be Apple's iMessaging system that came bundled with iOS 5 back in October 2011. The iMessage service is Apple's messaging experience on iOS devices, working across the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and soon to be officially supported by the Messages app as part of the new OS X Mountain Lion operating system coming this summer. The service allows all iOS 5 users to send unlimited messages over a data or Wi-Fi connection to other iMessage users and is bundled as part of the native Messages app.
If internet users actually took a few minutes to sit back and take stock of the amount of information they extract from the world wide web on a daily basis I think they might actually be a little taken aback. The majority of individuals use the internet to learn and acquire information as well as seeking out and watching videos of cute puppies on YouTube. With sites like YouTube and Vimeo, search engine giants such as Google and free information hubs like Wikipedia; the internet really does have something for everyone and it is a very rare instance that you can't find an answer to something you are looking for.
When you consider all of the fantastic and powerful features that the iPhone has, you quickly come to realize that it is a fairly fantastic piece of consumer technology. The latest in the series, the iPhone 4S not only has an amazing Retina display and an 8 mega-pixel camera, but it also has an awesome built-in intelligent voice assistant. We are living in a generation where consumers constantly demand more and more from manufacturers, but it is sometimes worth stopping for a moment and considering the intense technology which we already have.
It seems that the better devices get, the more demanding consumers become. Barely a week has passed since the release of the new iPad, and yet already it seems much of the blogosphere is focusing its attention on the next iPhone.
