With the endless runner genre filling up the App Store with new skins on old mechanics, it is always nice when a game throws something different into the mix. It keeps the category fresh. Ruby Run: Eye God's Revenge is an endless runner that lets you shoot things along the way. Running, jumping, and ducking are no longer the only skills you must have.
When you are on a day trip and using your iPhone to take lots of pictures and video, you probably have noticed how quickly your battery drains when you need it the most. You could run back to the car for a quick juice up, or bring the juice with you wherever you go.
The UNU DX is an external battery case that lets you keep going without having to worry about running out of power. It has a sleek look and protective design that acts as more than just a case when you are far from a power outlet.
Beats 1 is a great, but what if you're not available to listen to your favorite DJ's show at the time it initially airs? Good news: Beats 1 nowallows users to replay entire shows.
Since Beat 1's inception, it's always been possible to replay a DJ's playlist, but being able to replay an entire show, complete with commentary, wasn't possible. Thanks to the recent change, this is no longer the case.
Users can now easily replay a show from their favorite DJ just by following a few steps. Admittedly, the steps aren't as straightforward as one might expect from a company that prides itself on dead-simple usage, but it seems to be a running theme with iTunes and the Music app to make things more muddled than need be.
Beats 1 may not be the only live radio station on Apple Music for long, reports The Verge. Citing sources with knowledge of the agreement, the outlet says that Apple's current music licensing contracts include permissions for up to five additional Beats radio stations.
"As part of the deal it struck with the major labels for Apple Music Radio," says The Verge's Micah Singleton, "Apple has licenses for up to five additional stations like Beats 1." So it could essentially create a lineup of 6 radio stations without needing to renegotiate.
Dr. Dre's highly anticipated Compton will premiere on Apple Music this week, says Zane Lowe. The popular DJ and Beats 1 Radio host announced on Twitter this afternoon that the album will stream uncensored and exclusively this Thursday from 6pm to 9pm PDT.
This will be Dre's first new album in more than 15 years, succeeding Chronic 2001, which went sextuple platinum. He announced the record on his Beats 1 show "The Pharmacy" late last week, saying that the music was inspired by the new movie Straight Outta Compton.

BitTorrent Sync made its App Store debut back in August 2013, its major appeal being the underlying distributed technology that facilitates secure file syncing between devices but without a roundtrip to the cloud, thus appealing to privacy-minded customers.
The mobile component to BitTorrent’s peer-to-peer file syncing product, BitTorrent Sync for iOS is receiving a major update later today with an important productivity element added to the app: you can now save various types of files created in other apps right into a Sync folder to share with connected devices via a new Share sheet action.
Apple on Tuesday seeded the fourth public beta of OS X El Capitan to testers. The release comes less than 24 hours after beta 6 of El Capitan was pushed out to developers, and roughly a month after the first public beta landed.
The new build is available to registered public testers who are already on beta 3 via the Updates section of the Mac App Store, or through the beta web portal as a standalone download. You can enroll in the program by clicking here.
I don't know about you, but I find it kind of tedious to switch between keyboards on iOS. I find it tedious, because have to tap that little language button, which requires a precise tap on the keyboard.
Instead, wouldn't it be nice if you could just perform a simple swipe gesture to switch between the keyboards that you have configured? A new tweak called KeySwipe lets you do just that.
Twenty-four hours after Business Insider claimed knowledge that Apple has been in talks to launch a mobile virtual network service (MVNO) in the United States and Europe, a company representative has refuted the claim in an official statement given to Reuters.
The company has not discussed such plans and is in fact not planning an MVNO cellular service, contrary to the reports it was planning on doing that.
When you bring up an iPhone to your ear to take or receive a phone call, the handset taps the built-in proximity sensor near the ear piece to detect that you're holding your phone up and then turns off the display to prevent spray input from your face.
But sometimes a smudge from your finger can block the path of light back to the phone's sensors, prompting the device to shut down the display because it thinks you're holding the device near your head.
A new invention Apple was granted a patent for was published Tuesday by the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), describing a smudge-detection method designed to prevent an iPhone screen from accidentally turning off due to smudges.
