The Apple Store App was finally updated for the iPhone 5's bigger display, after being left out of the initial round of updates to Apple's in house developed apps.
No other changes were added to the app, but this change is what most have been waiting for since the iPhone 5 launched. I can confirm that the Apple Store app looks glorious on the iPhone 5's four inch display. Check inside for more pictures...
With this year's iPhone launch now behind us, and the current-gen iPad now past the halfway point in its 12-month life cycle, we knew it was only a matter of time before we started hearing rumors regarding the next iPad. And a juicy one just hit the web.
According to a new report, an iOS developer has spotted an interesting new Apple device in his app analytics log. It's labeled as an "iPad3,6," and appears to be running an A6 chip or some sort of variation of it. What is it? Well, it could just be a fourth-gen iPad...
It appears that Apple is making good on Tim Cook's promise. Just a week after the CEO posted an open letter regarding the shortcomings of the new Maps application, users are starting to see improvements.
Particularly, users are starting to notice an improvement in the 3D aspect of Apple's Maps app. Landmarks, like the Statue of Liberty, and buildings, that were once missing from the flyover mode are now present...
While most media attention about Apple Maps has centered on bridges on dry land, landmarks that don't exists and other oddities, the digital cartographers at Cupertino, Calif. have been stuffing the app with some amazing features, like offline browsing. Unlike maps in iOS 5, Apple's vector-based Maps are cached and GPS navigation work even without an Internet connection.
For instance, Apple's vector maps loaded while in San Francisco, Calif. can still be browsed on a flight from Anchorage, Alaska to Lima, Peru, according to AppleInsider. The writer was able to navigate across the state and via street-level maps as far west as Salt Lake City, Utah -- and in 3D, to boot. By comparison, Google Maps, which use bitmap tiles, would let you navigate offline for about a 10 mile radius before complaining.
Netbot, an App.net client for iOS users, and the sister client to the popular Tweetbot, has been unleashed on the App Store.
Just in case you weren't aware, Twitter has been making some changes as of late, and it's safe to say that they have't been very popular among the tech community. As a result, a few alternative services to Twitter have emerged, and one of those is App.net.
Though there are some key differences between it and Twitter's methodology, both from a technical level and a company level, the services are similar enough that it's entirely possible to confuse NetBot with Tweetbot at first glance.
Take a look at our hands-on video inside for more details...
Remember the cliffhanger scene in movies: a damsel in distress is tied to railroad tracks ahead of an oncoming train. Will the hero arrive in time to rescue her? That's a bit like the situation we have with the iPhone 5.
Analysts are trimming their sales forecast of Apple's new handset due to 'extremely limited' supplies and the all-important holiday buying period is bearing down. Can suppliers rescue Apple? Can Apple meet unprecedented demand in time to take advantage of everyone wanting an iPhone 5 in their stocking?
Folks in the UK who recently purchased an iPhone 5 will be happy to hear that in less then a month, they'll finally be able to use the handset to its full potential. It's official: the country's first LTE network will go live on October 30.
The network belongs to EE (Everything Everywhere), which is a joint venture between Orange and T-Mobile. And the new 4G service will be available to existing customers on either of the two carriers, and obviously, new ones...
Now that the iPhone 5 launch has come and gone, the rumor mill's attention has turned to the iPad mini. Apple is widely expected to unveil a smaller version of its popular tablet sometime within the next month.
There's been a lot of talk over what the slate will look like, with the most recent chatter stemming from a leaked black rear shell that reportedly belongs to the tablet. And as usual, this has inspired some mockups...
Good news today for folks in Germany and Switzerland. Reports are coming in this afternoon that Apple has recently started rolling out 'TV shows in the Cloud' in the two countries.
For those unfamiliar with the feature, it allows users to replay previously purchased TV shows through the Purchased tab in iTunes and on iOS devices, including the Apple TV...
Get ready for delays when first purchasing Apple's still-unannounced but highly-expected iPad mini. That's the word from one Wall Street analyst who tells investors today that suppliers are frustrated by Apple's specifications for the 7.85-inch tablet. The concerns will likely create "supply constraints" which blunt the device's full potential with consumers.
According to Brian White of Topeka Capital Markets, building the smaller iPad design to respond to rival 7-inch tablets powered by Google's Android operating system is "no walk in the park for suppliers." Despite the grumbling, the new iPad will "blow away what competitors are offering in this smaller form-factor tablet market," he writes...
Taptaptap's Camera+ and SmugMug's Camera Awesome are like the two most important photography and image editing apps in my arsenal. Both have been refreshed this morning, but don't let a minor version update fool you as each app enables major enhancements that add help add flair to iPhone photography.
Following in the footsteps of Taptaptap, SmugMug's Camera Awesome has been updated with native iPad support. At the same time, Taptaptap (which recently released CAmera+ for iPad and gave the iPhone version iCloud sync and other new features) has updated Camera+ for iPhone with the cool low-light boost mode Apple debuted on the iPhone 5...
Here we go again. Just as has been the case with the numerous iPhone 5 parts that leaked leading up to the September 12 keynote, we're now witnessing the same thing happening with purported iPad mini parts, all over again. The latest to make an appearance: headphone jacks, available in both black and white and seemingly fitting inside a hole on the iPad mini housing iDB told you about earlier in the week...
