It's one of the most exciting parts of a new iOS beta being seeded to developers, and people just love digging around for it. "It" is any kind of reference to a new iDevice or Apple TV hidden inside the latest betas to ship out of Cupertino, and iOS 5.1 beta 1 has thrown up a few interesting tidbits already.
We all know Apple's iPhone range is one of the most popular within the ever-broadening smartphone market, and with solid features allied to a sleek exterior reeling in customers year by year.
For those of you that are tired of the Angry Birds phenomenon, we’d like to introduce you to a different kind of puzzle game. Physics will still be involved but now with fewer birds getting hurt or eggs getting stolen.
We told you recently about a brand new Cydia tweak called Siri0us, which brings Siri-like dictation to the iPhone 4, 3GS and iPod touch 4G touting a jailbroken version of iOS 5. The tweak is free, and has been downloaded by a good few people since it started to receive some publicity by both ourselves and a handful of tech sites.
Android is being portrayed as the smartphone operating system for those that like to push boundaries, be their own people and not conform to the usual rules, and there may be some truth to that if a recent report about how they treat security is anything to go by.
We've barely got the Black Friday madness out of the way and now we're into Cyber Monday! Traditionally the first Monday after Black Friday, 'Cyber Monday' is the day that online retailers try to persuade customers to shop online, and Apple is no different.
Apple certainly made a splash with the release of Siri, even though it is in some sort of beta flavored flux. With nothing quite like it out there on any other device, and the decision to limit its availability to the new iPhone 4S, Apple both gave a reason to upgrade to iPhone 4 owners, and made the competition sit up and take notice at the same time.
It’s hard to keep up with online trends, they seem to change every week. Lucky for us there's always quick developers helping us keep up!
Today has been a crazy sort of day when it comes to news from the jailbreaking community. First we saw Chronic Dev-Team (CDT) - the folks behind GreenPois0n jailbreaking tool for iOS 4.2.1 - releasing a new tool called C-Dev Crash Reporter which allows jailbreaking enthusiasts to send crash report data to CDT (instead of Apple) so they could find exploits, then we saw an all-new jailbreaking tool for iOS 5 / 5.0.1 called Ac1dSn0w released, and now we have received news regarding iPhone 4S unlock. Details after the jump!
When FaceTime was introduced back in 2010, it was rightfully considered to be, at least back then, an “empty” feature. There were two reasons for this, it only worked over WiFi and only between two iPhone 4’s. Since then, FaceTime has been brought to other Apple products and it now works on the iPad 2, iPod touch 4G as well as OS X and, because of this, it has actually become a pretty useful service for folks who stick to Apple for their computing needs. Its first limitation - that of being WiFi-only - was removed thanks to a jailbreak tweak called FaceBreak which enabled FaceTime over 3G. This tweak has now been updated to support jailbroken iOS devices on iOS 5 and iOS 5.0.1. Details after the jump!
