Testflight for iOS Gets an Update, Makes Beta Testing Even More Fun

Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated March 17, 2019

Beta testing is a pretty big part of developing iOS apps these days. Once upon a time, a developer could throw an app out there and fix bugs as they went along, but with competition at its fiercest these days, that would be suicide for most. Most apps have so much competition, users will just move onto the next big thing, or find a replacement that works better. Bugs kill apps, and dead apps kill developers.

Beta testing is vital, and Testflight makes it super easy for both the tester and the developer alike...

‘OS X Lion Ultimatum’ is the Best iPhone Theme Ever

Jeff Benjamin ∙ September 12, 2011

I've reviewed tons of DreamBoard themes over the last 6 months, and I've stumbled upon some really spectacular work.

Themes such as Asymmetric HD and AppleWeb HD set high bars for what to expect out of the DreamBoard framework.

As good as those themes are, nothing could prepare me for the meticulously detailed OS X Lion Ultimatum, which is far and away the best iPhone theme I've ever seen or used...

Epson Adds AirPrint Support, HP Takes the Feature to the Next Level

Cody Lee ∙ September 12, 2011

When Apple unveiled AirPrint last year, there were only 12 printers that supported the feature. Since then, manufacturers have been dragging their feet on supporting the wireless printing option.

Until now, HP has had the lion's share of the AirPrint-compatible printer market. But it seems like Epson is looking to get in on the action, as MacRumors reports that the Japanese company has several printers coming out this Fall that support the feature...

iPhone 4 Sales Remain Strong Ahead of iPhone 5 Launch

Alex Heath ∙ September 12, 2011

Apple has been building up to a climactic event set to take place in the next 4 weeks. In the past, new iPhone hardware had always been introduced during the summer at Apple's WWDC conference, but 2011 has proved to be a totally different year in terms of Apple's product cycle.

The Verizon iPhone 4 in February helped to throw everything off, and more factors seem to be at play. Apple is up to something different this year, and the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 5 alongside a second model this Fall.

With all of the rumors and heated speculation, average consumers are still perfectly content with the iPhone 4. In fact, last year's iPhone model is still selling better than ever...

As the industry eagerly awaits Apple's next media announcement, products like iOS 5 and iCloud are nearing final testing stages. A new report claims that Apple is set to release the final iOS 5 Golden Master build to iPhone assemblers in the next two weeks.

Previous reports from supply chains overseas have said that Apple has already begun iPhone 5 production, with the claim that suppliers are making an upwards of 150,000 units per day. iOS 5 has, up to this point, not been installed on the new hardware. But the mobile software is set to reach its final build version very soon...

The Likely Reason Why There Will Be No 64GB iPhone 5

Jeff Benjamin ∙ September 12, 2011

Yesterday, we reported that the iPhone 5 might not receive the bump in storage that some have been expecting. Rumors swirling around a screen-grab from a Vodafone inventory listing, suggests that the iPhone 5 will arrive in one of four flavors — a black 16GB or 32GB option, and a white 16GB or 32GB option — 64GB of storage capacity was nowhere to be seen.

Now, at first, that might seem weird considering that Apple's created 64GB iterations of the iPod touch and iPad lineup. But iCloud is right on the horizon, and with it, Apple has effectively eliminated the need for increased local storage capacity in their mobile devices. Check inside to see why...

Dubbed the "Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case" and set to go on sale next month, the case protects your iPhone or iPod touch while a 6-36 month-old child does its best to eat it, drool on it, or do other generally bad things to it...
