Apple will provide new developer tools that will for the first time let app makers design, engineer and compile a single app binary which will run across iPhone, iPad and Mac devices.
Pokémon GO, the popular augmented reality game, is scheduled to gain a brand new AR+ mode powered by Apple's ARKit as soon as later today.
Many apps you use on your iPhone are tapping your location to provide services or data based on where you are. While everything happens in the background, all these apps are actually using your GPS coordinates on your iPhone to pinpoint your location in the most precise way.
While an average user will never have to deal with GPS coordinates, knowing how to obtain and understand them can be valuable for some. I'm thinking about outdoorsy people or those into geocaching, for instance. If you're one of these people, or if you just want to learn something new, here's how to view GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude) on iPhone.
You can transfer any in-progress call from your iPhone to your iPad or Mac with just a couple of taps. Let's show you why you might want to do this and how.
John Poole, founder of the popular synthetic benchmark known as Geekbench, has discovered a curious correlation between the oft-reported performance issues that some owners of older iPhones have been complaining about and battery age/changes to iOS.
The jailbreak community has been brimming with potential following the release of Ian Beer’s tfp0 exploit for iOS 11.1.2, but we’re not out of the woods yet. Fortunately, developers continue to release new and exciting tweaks for those still comfily jailbroken on iOS 10.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss all the new jailbreak tweaks we’ve shown you throughout the last work week. As usual, we’ll begin by talking about our favorites in detail, and then we’ll outline the rest of them afterward.
iOS’ backgrounding capabilities leave a lot to be desired, but a new jailbreak tweak dubbed TrueBackground by iOS developer tangxianhai just might be able to help.
At its very core, TrueBackground is a background manager that permits apps to continue operating even after closing them with the Home Button. For example, now you can:
If you happen to use Spotify for your music-streaming needs on your jailbroken iOS device, then you might take an interest in a new jailbreak tweak dubbed Spodinhancer by iOS developer Codey More.
If it wasn’t already evident from the name, Spodinhancer delivers a bevy of both cosmetic and functional augmentations to the Spotify app.
If you cherished the concept of EqualizerEverywhere back in the day, then we think you might like a new free jailbreak tweak called EQE by iOS developer r333d.
As the developer puts it, EQE is essentially EqualizerEverywhere’s successor. Acting as an entirely system-wide parametric equalizer, EQE lets you adjust the sound output of practically any app installed on your device.
Security researchers from Alibaba’s Pandora Lab claim to have created a new jailbreak compatible with Apple’s latest flagship: the iPhone X. Furthermore, it appears to work flawlessly with iOS 11.2.1, which Apple just released to the public this week.
A blog post by Alibaba notes how the jailbreak isn’t semi-untethered like those released by Pangu and Luca Todesco in the last two years. Instead, it’s of the untethered variety, which means one could reboot the jailbroken device and continue using third-party add-ons without re-running the jailbreak tool on a computer.
Less than 24 hours following the launch of first developer betas for iOS 11.2.5 and tvOS 11.2.5, they're now available to public beta testers who are enrolled in Apple's Beta Software Program.
If you’ve been following the news lately, then you might’ve caught wind about a particular tfp0 iOS exploit released by security researcher Ian Beer that could potentially aid in the development of an iOS 11 jailbreak.
Many people think the jailbreak is dead, but that doesn't seem to be the case. While a jailbreak tool for iOS 11 hasn't surfaced yet, I wanted to take this opportunity to share why I’m excited about the possibility of an iOS 11 jailbreak.
