Isn't it amazing what you can do nowadays with just an iPad and the GarageBand application? Whether you're into music or not, you can only agree that this is a match made in heaven.
A couple weeks ago I shared with you this video of a guy shredding at the guitar on his iPad using GarageBand. In the same style, I'd like you to check out this video of a guy playing a cover of the Cure's "Just Like Heaven"...
An upcoming iOS 5 feature has been leaked in iTunes. Following the rumor that iOS 5 would offer over-the-air downloads for iOS updates, MacRumors has uncovered a new Apple feature called "Automatic Download."
Currently, users have to manually update App Store apps. You can update one app at a time, or update all apps at once in the App Store app. Automatic Download would allow for OTA downloading and syncing of app updates in iOS...
We sometimes do app giveaways and every time we do one of those, there is someone to ask me how to redeem the promo codes. I really thought that we had already written a post about that, but after doing a quick research, well, turns out we haven't.
In this post, I will show you how to quickly and easily redeem promo code, either from iTunes or the App Store, directly on your iPhone.
Graphic artist Jan-Michael Cart is on fire lately with his iOS 5 concept videos. After dreaming of better speech recognition, fast app switching, and Lion-style dashboard, Jan-Michael is now introducing us to a new concept: dynamic icons.
Basically, instead of displaying a push notification alert in your face, dynamic icons can transform into icons that become the notification. Doesn't make much sense? Then watch this video and read Cart explaining his vision of dynamic icons...
Apple's iPhone has now overtaken BlackBerry devices to become the second most popular smartphone in the U.S. in terms of active users. While the iPhone has been outselling the BlackBerry family for some time now, it previously sat behind RIM's devices in both platform and hardware.
Data recorded by comScore's MobiLens service has revealed that between the three-month period beginning February and ending April 2011, 74.6 million people in the U.S. owned smartphones, 26% of which were Apple's iPhone...
Jailbreak developer Ryan Petrich just pushed SplitMail to his repo, his third tweak part of his TweakWeek challenge. SplitMail is a new tweak for jailbroken iPad that allows to display the left column of your emails in portrait mode in the same way it does while in landscape mode.
As usual, there is no icon or options in the Settings app. All you have to do is download the app on your iPad and view your emails in portrait mode...
Peter Hajas, the lead developer of the popular jailbreak notifications replacement, MobileNotifier, is now an Apple "iOS Apps and Frameworks" employee. We originally speculated that Hajas was working for Apple when he announced that he was leaving as the head of the MobileNotifier development team, and it has now been confirmed that Apple has hired Peter Hajas to work on iOS.
iOS 5 will be unveiled at WWDC on Monday, and Apple could introduce a new system of push notifications. It's unlikely that any of Peter's work will be seen in iOS 5. He is most likely working on a future update to Apple's mobile software...
This is day #2 of Ryan Petrich's Tweak Week, a friendly challenge that is going to bring us one new tweak a day for 7 days straight. Yesterday Ryan gave us DietBar, and today is coming up with a new tweak called PagePusher.
PagePusher is a very simple tweak that brings page-styled transitions to your iPhone. It's not very easy to describe how this app works, so it's best to just have you watch the video below...
What if I told you a white ninja crashed a car into an Apple Store in Greensboro, NC? You'd probably say "Sebastien, you should take it easy on this medicinal marijuana", right? Now what if I told you that I'm typing this, completely sober, and that a ninja indeed crashed his car into an Apple Store?
I know this sound a little surreal but this did happen earlier today...
Ever wondered what it's going to cost Apple to bring your iCloud dreams to life? Well, according to the New York Post, Apple is paying the record labels a combined total of around $150 million for the rights to stream their music through the iCloud service – add that to the price of its new North Carolina data center and you have a pretty hefty sum.
Apple finalized its iCloud negotiations earlier this week after it struck a deal with Universal Music Group – the last of the four major record labels to sign up to the iCloud service. It has now also secured deals with the corresponding publishers just in time for its unveiling – and possible launch – at WWDC on Monday...
We already know what the iCloud logo will look like, and now thanks to FSM, we know what the login page is going to look like. FSM claims to have had access to this from Apple's internal server, but it's still not clear to me how they got their hands on it.
Although Apple already announced iCloud, we have yet to learn what the service will be offering and how much it will cost ($25/year?). I guess we'll have to wait for Steve Jobs to tell us more about it on Monday...
While your iPhone may be way ahead of rival devices in terms of technical specifications and software, it's severely trailing behind others when it comes to radiation. A study by the Environmental Working Group found that Apple's popular smartphone only gives off an "average" amount of radiation, whereas Motorola handsets come with significantly more.
This CNN report comes after the World Health Organization announced on Tuesday that there was sufficient evidence to categorize exposure to cell phone radiation as "possibly carcinogenic to humans."
