One of my favorite components of iCloud is Photo Stream. I love having instant access to all of my photos on both my iPhone and iPad. Having instant access to my photos on my laptop is awesome too, but there is one major caveat.
You see, to access your Photo Stream photos on your Mac computer, you have to go through iPhoto — which I hate. It takes forever to load and the UI is terrible. Luckily, I've just come across a software-free way to access my Photo Stream photos on my computer...
MirrorWidget is a jailbreak tweak that places a mirror in iOS 5's Notification Center. The "mirror" is just an image from either the front or rear facing camera; you can switch between the two, and you have the ability to snap a photo in the process.
Making sure you look dapper has never been easier. Check out our video walkthrough straight ahead...
The battle between Apple and Samsung over patents has been going on for quite a while, and it seems there are new lawsuits every week. Yesterday, PaidContent reported that Apple has once again sued Samsung in a U.S District Court in San Jose, for two patents it was granted in December, adding to the mass of lawsuits already happening between the two companies.
The first patent pertains to Apple's famous autocorrect...
Don't you just hate it when you need to position your character in a specific spot, but you can't accurately do so due to the iPhone's lack of single character movement? I think we've all been there.
Fortunately, SwipeShiftCaret solves that issue by allowing you to swipe your finger on the screen to move a character space either left or right.
It's an extremely simple tweak with no settings, but it makes editing on an iOS device so much more intuitive...

Instagram has blown up as one of the most popular iOS apps on the App Store, allowing users to simply share moments in their life through photos.
Tonight, the Instagram app has been updated to version 2.1, which has added three new features...
Unlocking is not nearly as important to iPhone users as it once was. Over the last couple of years, Apple has opened up its popular handset to hundreds of new carriers, and has even started selling its own factory unlocked models.
But if you don't want to spend $650 buying the unlocked version of Apple's new iPhone 4S, you have a few other options. One, you could wait for the iPhone Dev team to release its unlock for the new handset. Or you can pre-order one of these...
AT&T is changing the price of their fee to upgrade handsets while on contract, reports BGR.
Originally, AT&T only charged customers $18 to upgrade to a new device, but now they want to charge $36. And to top things off, their reason is pretty bogus...
NCColors is a simple and straightforward method for customizing the background color of iOS 5's Notification Center. To do so it uses simple red, green, and blue sliders to adjust the hue proportions, which allows you to easily come up with a seemingly infinite amount of custom colors.
The RGB sliders alone make NCColors one of the best tweaks available when it comes to changing Notification Center's background color. Check out our further coverage inside...
The latest turn in Apple's ongoing patent war with Android manufacturing partners has been fairly disappointing for the iPhone-maker. A judge recently found Apple to be infringing on one of Motorola's wireless patents, causing the company to remove some of its products from its German online store.
Today, Reuters is reporting that Apple has launched a counter-attack, filing a lawsuit against Motorola in a US court. And the outcome of this trial has the power to turn the tide...
It doesn't take long to realize that your mobile provider isn't really worried when you go over your data limit. In fact, they're happy to ding you with a fee for another allotment of data.
WeeTrackData is a jailbreak app that resides in Notification Center, and it puts you back in the data monitoring driver's seat.
This is an awesome tweak that will help you monitor your data usage using a variety of intervals, and user configurable billing cycles. If you're struggling with managing your data usage, then you don't want to miss this...
The long term value of a product is largely determined by its resale value. That's why so many people will ask what the resale value of a car is before purchasing it.
Obviously it's not as big of a factor when looking for a new smartphone (unless you're paying full retail), but it's still a concern. And according to a recent report from priceonomics, no other handset retains its value better than Apple's iPhone...
