How to See Facebook Timelines on Your iPhone

Back in September of this year Facebook held its F8 developer conference. Like Apple's WWDC event, Facebook uses F8 to announce new features and services. The big hit of this year's conference was the company's new Timeline feature.

Facebook Timelines allows you to see all of a user's content on the social networking site in one convenient stream. We've already shown you how to access the feature on the iPad, and now we're going to tell you how to see it on the iPhone.

Grand Theft Auto III Now Available in the US App Store

Besides the recent release of Infinity Blade II, Rockstar's iOS port of its classic console hit Grand Theft Auto III has been one of the most anticipated titles for Apple's platform this Fall.

We told you about the impending release of the game earlier this month, and now we're happy to announce that the wait is finally over. Grand Theft Auto III has just gone live in the US App Store...

Gather the Gems: A Surprisingly Fun iOS Game [Sponsored]

I've come across a couple of really solid iOS games in the past few weeks. First, there was Where's My Water. When Apple started giving the game away I had to check it out. Then there was Heads Up. The RockLive title is about as addicting as they come.

So, needless to say, I was a bit skeptical when I was asked to review Gather the Gems. It falls in the same quick-play category as the aforementioned titles, and there's limited space on my device. Can Gather the Gems earn a spot on my home screen? Read on...

Gmail App Updated With Signatures, Scribbles, and More

Google's native Gmail application for iOS has had a rocky go of it over the past month. The initial app was yanked out of the App Store just hours after releases due to software bugs, and the app as a whole has received tons of criticism.

But that doesn't mean that Google is going to give up on it. In fact, the app just received a major update that not only brings tons of bug fixes, but also adds some new features like Scribbles, which lets you add your own art to emails...

StyleTap Wrapper Brings Palm OS Apps to iOS

Palm fans haven't been the only ones to mourn the demise of the aged platform. Now the few developers who made it their job to create Palm OS apps have a lifeline, and it's a lifeline that could open up a brave new world of mobile app development for those who have been left behind.

StyleTap's new iOS Wrapper SDK allows developers to take their old Palm OS apps and make them ready for submission to Apple's App Store. Whether Apple sees fit to accept the submissions, though, is anybody's guess.

Popular News Magazine Zite Finally Comes to iPhone

If recent releases like Flipboard and Google Currents haven't fulfilled your need for an iPhone news magazine app, you'll be happy to hear that a new title has just surfaced in the App Store.

Zite, which was chosen by Apple as the number one iPad news app of 2011, is now available on the iPhone. Although it's similar in function to the aforementioned apps, its style is completely different...

EA Launches Daily Deals Page for its iOS Games

With Christmas just two weeks away, developers are undoubtedly going to start rolling out their app specials soon. It's the holidays, and just as publishers hosted major app sales over Thanksgiving week, we expect to see tons of deals this month.

EA, or Electronic Arts rather, was at the forefront of the discounting in November, shaving up to 80% off of some of its most popular titles. And apparently it has even bigger plans in store for December, as the company has setup a dedicated Daily Deals site...

Members of Microsoft's popular online gaming community, Xbox LIVE, will be happy to hear that an official iOS app has just surfaced in the App Store. There had been some doubt on whether Microsoft would port the app to Apple's mobile OS.

Incredible: Song Made Completely With iPad Instruments

Apple's tablet has drastically changed several industries over its nearly two years in existence. The iPad has made voting easier for handicap voters, NFL playbooks more intuitive for players, and flight bags much lighter for pilots.

It also has the potential to heavily impact the music industry, replacing rooms full of studio equipment and instruments. The EastMidWest music group proves the theory with its new video: Jason Derulo's "It Girl" (iPad Remix)...

Printstagram Takes Instagram Photos and Turns Them into Pictures, Books, and More

Instagram is definitely in danger of taking over the world. What started out as a neat little app for taking and sharing stylised photographs on an iPhone has ballooned into something more than we could ever imagine. But wouldn't it be awesome to get those great photos off of your iPhone and into the real world?

Bursting out of the digital realm and into the analog one is something that Instagram photos have done before. Not that long ago we told you about an art gallery that was opening in London. The gallery was going to be showing Instagram photos, and only Instagram photos. If you ever wondered what it would look like to take an iOS app and blow it right up, then this is perfect example. Well, this and Angry Birds.

Now you can take your Instagram photos and have them made into all manner of photographic keepsakes, and we have to say that they look pretty impressive...
