The latest from Apple's component suppliers: an improved, more durable Touch ID manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is headed to the next iPhone and iPad. Augmenting Monday's supply chain rumor, another source published an image just yesterday of what appears to be next-generation iPhone, iPad mini and iPad Air devices outfitted with Touch ID...
Yo, that stupendously simple viral messaging app which lets people exchange ultra-short two-character "Yo" messages, now has over a million users.
The free of charge app, born out of an April Fool's Day joke and released just four days ago as a single-tap zero character communication tool for the iPhone, immediately got featured on the App Store's Top Free charts and is currently sitting at the ninth place...

A few days ago it was reported that a new Maps feature was discovered in the just-released beta (2) of iOS 8 called 'City Tours.' Hidden within secret debug menus of the software, the feature takes users on virtual 3D Flyover tours over major cities.
