Apple just celebrated 50-billion apps downloaded, but that number pales in comparison to the number of app updates it's delivered.
So I thought I’d examine the version history of every app currently on my phone, and even make a best guess of how many megabytes it took to keep all my apps up to date.
Since I don’t have the size of historical binaries, I’m only going to use the size of the latest version, which will probably overstate the true ...
Apple has placed design guru Jony Ive in charge of the look and feel of iOS, and speculation has never been hotter. The upcoming iOS 7 will likely feature the most significant visual upgrade of the platform ever. One rumor says that privacy filters are required during field testing to prevent onlookers from catching a glimpse of the new design.
But we don't have to wait until Apple's announcement to imagine what could be in store: users of Dribbble, a "show-and-tell" ...
Frederick Bianco, an industrious designer, has created an interesting concept video for Apple’s upcoming iOS 7. Bianco gets to work in this video, demoing both the iPad and iPhone versions of his iOS 7 concept. The best part? Most users with a Jailbroken iThing can achieve the same look and feel Bianco has achieved.
The White Stripes never sounded so good
It’s a peculiar video, as it envisions an iOS that is very much in line with what the jailbreaking community has rolled ...
On some levels I’ve never heard of anything quite as ridiculous as an iWatch. I also totally want one and I’m not even entirely sure why. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, let me give you a quick rundown. Earlier this year it was leaked that Apple was developing a smartwatch, the key component of which is flexible glass that allows it to be curved to fit your wrist. Apparently known as “Willow Glass”, this is a ...
After more than a year on iOS and Android tablets, Adobe has released a crunched version of Adobe Photoshop Touch for Android and iOS. Photoshop Touch for smartphones incorporates almost all of the image editing tools available on the tablet version, and is available for purchase at Google Play and the App Store for US$10.
Available for versions upwards of iOS 6 (iPhone 4S and 5) and Android 4, the app can be synced with Adobe Creative Cloud, which means a ...
In what can be compared to a ping-pong match, Apple has delivered an updated iOS to developers that could, or most probably would, decimate the Evasi0n jailbreak released just a couple of weeks ago. According to one of the creators of Evasi0n, David Wang, the 6.1.3 beta 2 update patches one of the five exploited bugs in iOS, as reported by Forbes.
"If one of the vulnerabilities doesn't work, evasi0n doesn't work. We could replace that part with a different vulnerability, ...
I’m lucky enough to own a Samsung Smart TV. I bought it because I believe in converged devices: I want to watch TV and hop in and out of the web and my apps seamlessly. That is our TV experience of the future. Samsung got that right with its Android-based TV OS and is streaks ahead of the competition.
Unfortunately Samsung got it right in concept only: the execution of that vision leaves much to be desired, meaning I never used ...
An update to the TomTom app on iOS devices added the ability for users to sync their device and the app to Apple's iCloud data synchronization service, for those who use GPS navigation frequently while driving or walking. The previous version 1.12 received a minor update, and the newer version 1.13 is a free update to users who have purchased previous versions.
After installing the update, users can connect to the iCloud service and back up settings on the app, as ...
Tesla has announced an app for its Tesla Model S that will monitor aspects of the car, change settings and honk the horn if you can't find it. Electric cars, especially the Tesla models, are technological marvels, perfectly suited for the gadget-obsessed and the addition of an app that lets you remote control your car adds to that.
The app has various features that will allow owners to fully communicate with the car, allowing them to precondition the temperature while not ...
