Heads up iPhone 5s owners: have you noticed that your Compass app readings are a little bit off? Don't worry, you're not alone. It seems a number of users are complaining of inaccurate sensors on Apple's latest handset.
More specifically, users have noticed that both their compass and inclinometers on their 5s devices are consistently off by a noticeable margin. The latter appears to be incorrect by 2 degrees, while the former is off by 8-10...
It's been more than two years since Google unveiled its Music service, and the company has yet to launch an official iOS client. Sure, there's been plenty of third-party apps, and a web app, but nothing native directly from Google.
But according to a new report from Engadget, that could change very soon. Citing sources familiar with the company's plans, the outlet claims that Google is testing a Music app internally, and plans to launch it later this month...
Apple's iPhone and iPad lines are both set to get larger displays, according to a new report from Korea's ET news. The outlet claims to have knowledge of the company's future product plans, and has outlined a series of sweeping changes.
For starters, the report says that the iPhone is set to get a bump in display size to over 5-inches. And it goes on to explain that the iPad is going to get split into pro and entry-level models, with at least one model getting a 13-inch display...
Snapchat has posted a new version of its iOS client today, bringing the app to version 6.0. The update only includes one new feature—but it's a major new feature, which the company is calling 'Snapchat Stories.'
The best way to describe the feature is that it's sort of similar to Facebook's News Feed. Story entries are essentially status updates that show your friends what you've been up to in the last 24 hours, using pictures...
Last summer, Spotify updated its mobile apps with a free Pandora-like radio service, and it has since seen its subscriber base grow by more than a third. Today, Rdio is betting on the same horse with its own mobile radio feature.
Rdio’s radio service—which it calls 'Stations'—will be available via its mobile apps. Like Pandora or iTunes Radio, users won't be able to choose a specific song or artist. But they will be able to listen to music based on their tastes...
Those of you who weren't impressed by Plants vs. Zombies 2 or its 'freemium' business model will be happy to hear that EA has updated the original PvZ game with support for the latest devices and firmware.
Posted late last night, Plants vs. Zombies version 1.9.9 includes support for the recent iOS 7 software update, as well as the larger resolution for the 4-inch displays found on newer iPhones and iPod touches...
Last month, AT&T hit some major milestones in its LTE rollout. As of early September its 4G network covered over 240 million people, in over 400 markets. And it's not showing any signs of slowing down.
The carrier announced another major expansion of its LTE network this week, flipping the proverbial switch on in 11 new markets. These areas are scattered throughout the US, so check the list after the fold...
In a recent interview with Techworld, Qualcomm's chief marketing officer Anand Chandrasekher told the publication that he thinks that Apple's 64-bit A7 processor is just a 'marketing gimmick' and that it adds 'zero benefit' for the customer.
The executive's remarks follow several weeks of discussion on the processor, which is the first 64-bit chip to land in a smartphone, from all corners of the tech world. Here's why he thinks it's more of a marketing stunt than a technical enhancement...
Some people collects rocks, other people collect stamps. Apple, however, likes cash. Turns out the iPhone maker, all by itself, controls ten percent of all corporate cash in the United States.
Just how much is that? New data shows Apple's bank account of $147 billion represents ten percent of the $1.48 trillion held by non-banking U.S. companies.
Here's another factoid to make you even more uneasy about that measly savings account of yours: all together, Microsoft, Google, Cisco and Pfizer - not exactly nickel and dime operations - account for another fifteen percent of all U.S. corporate cash...
Virgin Mobile, Sprint's prepaid brand, started offering the new iPhones for $100 less compared to Apple's official unsubsidized pricing.

Argus is the first app to officially take advantage of the new M7 motion coprocessor found inside the iPhone 5s. As the floodgates are open now, small wonder fitness software makers are scrambling to update their warez with support for the power-efficient chip.
If you own an iPhone 5s, it's already tracking your movement on a daily basis so M7-compatible apps have a history of what iOS has already recorded to work with.
You can now add David Smith's Pedometer++ to your list of apps which take advantage of the M7 rather than dutifully perform motion calculations day in day out using the power-hungry A7 processor...
