If you've got a remote control car, helicopter or airplane, listen up. The iPhly allows you to ditch the bulky and expensive R/C equipment for something more portable, like your iPhone.
We've seen remote control accessories before, but they only work with accompanying vehicles. iPhly actually has the ability to control anything from airplanes to RC cars that you already own. How does it work?
When the iPhone's consolidated tracking file was first revealed last month, it took the jailbreak community 24 hours to respond. The day after the story broke, Ryan Petrich released a free Cydia tweak that would clear the iPhone's location history.
But if untrackerd and Apple's own iOS 4.3.3 update haven't dismissed your fears of big brother following your every move, Cydia once again has a solution for you. For all the folks wearing aluminum foil hats out there, here's Footprintz...
If you were a fan of the movie Training Day, you'll love Gameloft's upcoming iOS title. The aptly-named 9mm promises to set itself apart from other open-world shooters.
Instead of the typical protagonist that runs around doing evil deeds for underground thugs, the main character appears to be a street savvy cop. Sound interesting? Hit the jump for the 9mm teaser trailer...
We reported last week on the appalling actions of Lodsys. The patent licensing firm has been sending out letters to iOS developers, threatening legal action if they aren't paid royalties for the use of their invention.
The company's claim that iOS apps with in-app purchasing options are infringing on their patent has been causing an uproar in the developer community. While everyone holds vigilant to see what (if anything) Apple has to say on the matter, the EFF decided to speak up yesterday...
Although we've shown you multiple ways to avoid your iPhone photos getting deleted, what about if your device gets stolen? The Find my iPhone service will allow you to wipe the device of personal data, but can you ever get your pictures back?
If you've ever lost a device, or feel like you've lost photos that were taken with your iPhone, you might want to check out Photo Rescue. The new Mac app will dig through all of your iOS backup files for you, and retrieve the photos you thought were goners...
Card scanners have been around for quite some time and contrary to popular belief can be very useful. But to be honest, I gave up on card readers a long time ago due to bad experiences with clumsy apps.
If done right, however, card scanning software can make adding contact information and keeping track of business contact data a breeze. So naturally, I jumped at the chance when I was asked to check out ABBYY's Business Card Reader for iOS...
Cloud services have been all the rage lately. Offerings from Amazon and now Google are currently battling it out in the "clouds," but I've got another suggestion for you. This one might have flown under your radar because it's just an App Store app that syncs with your DropBox account.
BoxyTunes isn't a brand new application, but we figured with all of the hubbub surrounding cloud services these days, we wanted to make sure all of our readers knew about this little gem...
We've all been there; your iPhone gets restored and you lose all of the app folders and page customization you spent months tweaking to perfection. Even when you restore from a backup, you lose your homescreen customization.
There's actually a nifty iTunes trick that will allow you to regain your previous homescreen customization after an iOS restore. For jailbreakers, it isn't that easy...
Healthcare company Teladoc has been in the doctor-visits-over-webcam industry for the last 8 years. In that time, the group has facilitated somewhere in the range of 80,000 patient/doctor visits by webcam or telephone.
Now it seems like the group is looking to release new iPhone and iPad apps that will allow patients to visit the doctors office, by simply making a FaceTime call. But can a doctor effectively diagnose a patient over the web?
Apple's TV line has been described as "just a hobby." However, strong sales of the company's 2nd iteration of the ATV has kind of changed the dynamics of the product.
AirPlay especially helped the Apple TV2's sales out, along with the device's $99 price tag. There are several apps available that take advantage of Apple's AirPlay feature, but this one probably does it in the most unique way...
In-app purchasing has had kind of a rocky go of it since Apple announced the feature in late 2009. Â It was the reason behind multiple lawsuits and was even rumored to be investigated by members of the FCC.
Well it appears that its legal troubles aren't over just yet, but this time it's not angry parents threatening with legal action. This time it's a small license-toting company that says that in-app purchasing infringes on one of their patents...
While the stock Camera.app in iOS lacks many basic functions, applications in the App Store and Cydia usually do a good job of filling in for the missing features.
There are apps that allow you to take panoramic photographs and there are even apps that will automatically stamp your pics with the time and date. Well, word on the street is that another tweak is on its way to Cydia, and it's bringing some interesting photo-taking features to the stock Camera app...
