In addition to allegedly working on a brand new app to enable on-the-go payments on iOS devices, called Organize, Apple is said to appease to developers by rolling out new tracking tools that will strengthen developers' privacy by not requiring UDIDs to gather usage data on their apps...
According to a new report from a well connected source, Apple is working on a brand new exciting app for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.
What does it do, you ask? You'll be pleasantly surprised, that's for sure. Read on...
Apple has taken a lot of heat over the use of the '4G' term in the name of its latest iPad. While the tablet is indeed LTE-capable here in the States, it isn't in most other places. And some folks found that misleading.
Perhaps its most public battle has been in Australia, where Apple has been getting sued by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission over the moniker. But the headache appears to be almost over...
Look, we already know Apple's iOS platform made Google four times the revenue of Android by end of 2011, courtesy of huge traffic coming from iOS device owners using preloaded search and mapping services from Google.
And as Apple is said to reduce its dependency on the search giant with a rumored in-house mapping service, Google's bottom line is becoming increasingly tied to the successes of Apple's iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.
Google's mobile advertising revenue? That's nearly all Apple. Looking at the big picture, the search Goliath will get up to two percent of its total revenue for the calendar year 2012 from the iOS platform...
Folks with Verizon-branded 4G iPads will be happy to hear that the carrier is flipping the LTE switch on in several new areas over the next few weeks. This includes both expansions, and brand new markets, in multiple states.
North Carolina and Florida residents look to be the biggest winners in this round of activations, as Verizon's 4G network will soon be available in Jacksonville, New Bern, Panama City and Palm Beach. Full list after the break...
Our friend and former iDB writer Alex Heath points us to a short clip highlighting Google's embarrassment at yesterday's hastily organized press conference to announce "the next dimension in Maps". Instead, as pointed out by MG Siegler, the search Goliath revealed anxiety over Apple Maps.
Be that as it may, the fact remains that Google put up a pretty boring show, rushing out a new version of Google Maps and looking foolish in the process...
Something awesome just landed on your iPad, courtesy of Algoriddim, the maker of cool DJ-ing app dubbed djay. Their newest release is a music video mixing program for the iPad called vjay. Now, I've been to parties where high-tech DJs perform live mixes using just Algoriddim's djay app, but this one takes the concept of fun to the next level...
Not too long ago we told you about a new Kickstarter project that caught our eye. Called the Touchtype, the project offered up a new type of iPad case that really piqued our interest.
More than just an iPad case, the Touchtype promised to offer a safe home for not just your tablet, but also an accompanying Apple wireless keyboard. If you've ever wanted to leave your hefty MacBook Pro at home when popping down to the coffee shop to do a little work, then the Touchtype aimed to make using your iPad for work a real possibility.
The thing is, and as we have all witnessed before, Kickstarter projects all look great when asking for money, but what about the finished article? We have been lucky enough to spend some time with a shipping version of the Touchtype, and we don't think you'll be disappointed...
Sparrow for iPhone, in spite of its shortcomings, has become my default email client on the iPhone.
I can't recall the last time I launched Apple's Mail app as Sparrow for iPhone beats Apple's stock app offering in terms of user friendliness, sleekness, elegance, ease of use and Gmail accounts handling, among other things.
But Sparrow's lack of native iPad interface has been ticking me off as the vast majority of my email management happens on my iPad.
Well, the wait will soon be over as the Sparrow developer just teased a new page confirming that Sparrow for iPad is coming...
Today's a bad, bad day for LinkedIn and a field day for privacy advocates around the world as someone has just managed to leak over 6.5 million hashed and encrypted LinkedIn passwords on a Russian hacker forum.
What are you waiting for, change your LinkedIn password now!
On top of that, the LinkedIn for iOS app, which was recently updated with iPad support, has an opt-in feature that lets you synchronize your iOS calendar to view upcoming events inside the app.
But similar to the unauthorized Path address book access, this feature sends your meeting notes to LinkedIn's servers without you ever knowing it...
CEO Michael Dell is known as the man of big words and bad predictions, the most infamous being his advice from fifteen years ago to give the money back to shareholds and shut down Apple. Fortunately, Dell's most recent outrageous quote at least hasn't come out of its CEO's mouth.
Another exec, Dell Australia’s managing director Joe Kreme, gets the credit for claiming that Apple's iPad is no fit for big business because it's too "shiny". He's also gone out on a limb to issue a warning to IT managers, saying issues with iOS devices in enterprise can take up to four days to resolve...
Reuters reports that Apple is planning to open two new stores in Chinese cities Chengdu and Shenzhen, regardless of its ongoing legal spat with China's bankrupt display maker Proview over the rights to use the iPad moniker in the 1.33 billion people market.
Chengdu and Shenzhen are also homes to the world's largest manufacturing sites. It's also where contract manufacturer Foxconn runs production facilities where iOS devices are being made...
