I can honestly say that I think there's a tweak for absolutely everyone on Cydia. Case in point: StatusBarSeconds, a new jailbreak tweak that allows you to add seconds to your iDevice's status bar.
Who needs something like that? Someone, apparently. Check inside for a video walkthrough of StatusBarSeconds in action...
Looking for a cleaner look to go along with your recent iOS 5 installation? If you're jailbroken, then a recently released Cydia tweak might be right up your alley.
It's called No Icon Label for iOS 5, and, as you may have guessed, it removes icon labels from all of your app icons on your iPhone's Home screen.
Sure, other tweaks have done this in the past, but here's a free, standalone solution for those of you looking for no icon labels with no filler added...
It's been over a month now since Steve Jobs passed away, and people around the world are still trying to find ways to pay their respects to the fallen leader. We've seen several tributes to Jobs over the past 30 days, but perhaps none more touching than this.
The New York Times points to a new exhibit erected in the United States Patent and Trademark Office in Alexandria, Virginia in honor of the late CEO. The display, which is made up of 30 giant iPhones, showcases all of the inventor's 300+ patents...
In September, Facebook unveiled one of the biggest changes to its user profiles since the social networking site launched in 2004: Timelines. The new addition takes boring news feed-based profiles and gives them a storyboard-like feel.
The feature not only makes profiles appear more personal, but also seems perfectly suited for a tablet display. Given Facebook's track record with iPad releases, however, don't expect it to incorporate Timelines into its iPad app anytime soon...
According to Flickr's image upload data, a lot of people use their iPhone as their main camera. Not only is the iPhone 4 the most popular camera (not smartphone, camera) on the photo-sharing site, but Flickr's top 4 cameraphones are iPhones.
And the iPad, well, we all know how popular Apple's tablet is. USBFever might actually be onto something with its new cable accessory that connects the two products, allowing users to transfer photos from the iPhone to the iPad with little effort...
Since Apple unveiled the iPhone 4S last month, everyone has been talking about one thing: Siri. The lovable assistant is the product of over 40 years of artificial intelligence research and the US CALO program (Cognitive Assistant that Learns and Organizes).
Siri isn't apparently exclusive to Apple's handset. Microsoft's chief strategy and research officer Craig Mundie recently told Forbes that Microsoft has had similar voice control tech on its Windows Phone platform for more than a year!
We know, we didn't see that one coming either...
Steve Jobs was know for sporadically emailing fans and random inquirers from his public Apple email address. He would give famous one-liners about hot issues, like when he said that Apple wasn't tracking its users during the Location Services scandal back in April.
Jobs would occasionally send out encouraging emails, like the time he emailed the Apple Store employees in Japan during the earthquake and tsunami disasters. All of these emails, and more, have been collected in a new eBook called, Letters to Steve: Inside the E-mail Inbox of Apple's Steve Jobs.
One of iOS 5's marquee features is the ability to backup and restore devices from iCloud without the need for iTunes or any of those pesky wires. Let's be frank, we've all got hundreds of those little white USB cables, but can we find one when we need it? We know we never can!
As is so often the case with such new and ambitious services as iCloud, it appears that the process is not without its problems, more specifically, problems surrounding a possible security risk.
According to Electronista, there appears to be a real issue that could potentially reveal the Apple IDs of random users...
It’s that time of the week! We frequently comb the far reaches of the App Store to bring you awesome apps for your downloading pleasure.
This week, we’ve got a super fun game for the iPhone and iPad, an app for rating things you like best, and a movie/TV discovery tool with a unique twist. We hope you enjoy this week’s picks!
Yesterday, we started seeing Black Friday banners pop up on Apple.com. The top of the image read "Every gift list has its day," and was followed by a request for customers to return to Apple's online store on November 25th for a special one-day shopping event.
Given Apple's track record, we weren't expecting the kind of deep discounts that other retailers will be offering this week. And it looks like we were spot on. 9to5Mac has gotten ahold of a copy of Apple's Black Friday deals, and as last year, they seem fairly modest...
Apple and Samsung have been involved in quite the court battle over the last 6 months. Apple accused Samsung of copying the trademarked design of its products, and since then, the two companies have been in and out of court.
Now it looks like the war is about to spill out into the advertising arena. Although companies have taken shots at Apple's popular smartphone in commercials before, none of them compare to the Korean manufacturer's latest TV spot...
Not only does Apple make a fortune from its iPhones, iPads, and anything else with a lower-case "i," but it also spawned thousands of awesome accessories. The iPhone especially has seen some interesting accessories come its way, and "interesting" is probably the best way to describe this particular case.
Weighing in at $250 and sporting three rotatable lenses, the Lens Dial is perhaps more than a normal case, but it is also one of the more whacky.
The Lens Dial, carved from aircraft-grade aluminum, packs the three lenses shown in the picture, allowing photographic types to take all kinds of images using the iPhone's built-in shooter...
