| Poll: who’s excited about black & white iOS 7 facelift? Posted: 27 May 2013 03:23 PM PDT
If you’ve been following Apple stories lately, chances are you came across a news piece last week that calls for a black and white iOS 7 redesign. You know, the facelift reportedly in the works under the guidance of Apple’s legendary design guru Jony Ive. It should be, in a word, awesome. As asserted by the very reliable writer Mark Gurman, Ive not only got rid of skeumorphism, he also eliminated the shine and transparent gloss for one that's flat and mostly black and white. And with two weeks until Apple’s June 10 keynote at WWDC 2013, we’ll soon find out just how deep the rabbit hole of visual changes in iOS 7 go. For now, we’re asking you to join the discussion and tell us where you stand on the black & white iOS 7 revamp…(...)

| Olloclip releases companion iPhone app for popular lens accessory Posted: 27 May 2013 03:07 PM PDT
In the world of iPhone photography accessories, there’s perhaps no better known name than Olloclip. The 3-in-1 clip-on lens started out as just a Kickstarter project, but it has since become a mainstay in Apple Stores and shutterbug bags alike. Fans of the Olloclip will be happy to hear that the team released a new iPhone app this weekend, also named Olloclip, designed to work with the popular accessory. The app features a mesh editor, useful modes like Video and Macro, and more…(...) "Olloclip releases companion iPhone app for popular lens accessory" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| Another tethering app sneaks into the App Store Posted: 27 May 2013 02:36 PM PDT
Here’s a nice little surprise to cap off your Memorial Day weekend. A new app has been discovered in the App Store that has a hidden tethering feature that will allow you to share your iPhone’s internet connection with your computer. The fact that an app like this has made its way into Apple’s heavily guarded App Store isn’t the least bit surprising, as it’s happened several times now. And it also won’t be surprising when Apple pulls it in the next few days, or sooner…(...) "Another tethering app sneaks into the App Store" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| Take better low-light selfies with FrontFlash Posted: 27 May 2013 01:59 PM PDT
When Apple unveiled the iPhone 5 last fall, it touted the fact that it could take better low-light photos than its predecessor. The improvement came by way of a new “dynamic low-light mode” that was built into the handset. Unfortunately, the feature only works with the iSight (rear) camera, meaning low-light pictures taken with the FaceTime camera still look terrible. But don’t worry, you can fix that with the new jailbreak tweak FrontFlash…(...) "Take better low-light selfies with FrontFlash" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| New iOS 7 concept features panoramic wallpaper, quick reply and more Posted: 27 May 2013 11:56 AM PDT
With WWDC now just a few weeks away, and more details about iOS 7 coming light, anticipation for Apple’s next-gen mobile operating system is almost through the roof. Everyone wants to know what the company has planned for the future of its platform. Well if these two designers get their way, iOS 7 will include a number of new features like support for panoramic wallpapers and quick reply for messages. Here’s a new iOS 7 concept from Christian Lue of ChanluChannel and Ran Avni of ConceptsiPhone…(...)

| Here comes the Google Glass photographer Posted: 27 May 2013 10:47 AM PDT
Although I haven't yet convinced iDB's own Sebastien Page to buy me a Google Glass, I'm a big fan of the Internet giant's augmented-reality eyewear. But just like the majority of respondents in our non-scientific poll, I too would rather wear Apple's rumored iWatch over Google's wearable gizmo. The biggest problem with Glass, as I see it, is social rather than technical. With that in mind, here’s something you could be seeing real soon: the Google Glass photographer. Go past the fold for a funny clip…(...) "Here comes the Google Glass photographer" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| Real Racing 3 Dubai update coming soon Posted: 27 May 2013 09:15 AM PDT
Electronic Arts’ free-to-play Real Racing 3, which debuted on the App Store three months ago, last month received its first major update that has brought out such improvements as cloud saves across devices, an all-new Hunter game mode, the addition of the Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Camaro ZL1 vehicles and over a hundred new events. The super publisher is now readying a second update that will feature twilight racing at the Dubai Autodrome, new cars and – you guessed right – more events. Your trailer is right after the break…(...) "Real Racing 3 Dubai update coming soon" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| Apple inexplicably pulling movie trailer downloads Posted: 27 May 2013 08:36 AM PDT
A movie buff like myself has always been a big fan of Apple’s QuickTime movie trailers web site. I’ve especially enjoyed the ability to download my favorite trailers in their full-resolution 1080p glory, useful for times when I’m without or on a slow Internet connection. Unfortunately – and in a rather surprising move – Apple seems to have started removing the download option from both past and upcoming submissions. Worse, the company appears to have effectively eliminated 1080p trailer availability, meaning people accessing the QuickTime movie trailers web site from their computer can now only stream those videos in either 480p or 720p…(...)

| MiniPlayer 2.2 released with new scrubbing and search features Posted: 27 May 2013 08:04 AM PDT
Do you really even need to use the stock Music app anymore? That’s likely what you’ll be asking yourself after trying out MiniPlayer 2.2 — an update to an already fantastic tweak by MPow and Surenix. The 2.2 update to MiniPlayer brings a couple of highly desired features to the mix, starting with search. Yes, you can now search your entire music library directly from MiniPlayer’s interface. As if that feature wasn’t enough to appease customers, we’ve also been provided with a new scrubbing ability to navigate to a specific portion of the now playing track. MiniPlayer was already one of my favorite new jailbreak tweaks before hand, but at this clip, it’s destined to make our top jailbreak tweaks list at the end of the year. Check out the details of the 2.2 update, along with an updated video walkthrough, inside.(...) "MiniPlayer 2.2 released with new scrubbing and search features" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com. |
| Former US Senator: blame Congress for tax avoidance, not Apple Posted: 27 May 2013 07:27 AM PDT
Carl Levin, the chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, ahead of a high-profile congressional hearing accused Apple of seeking "the Holy Grail of tax avoidance" by creating "offshore entities holding tens of billions of dollars, while claiming to be tax resident nowhere." Needless to say, click-hungry media came all guns blazing in support for the government’s stance. But not so fast, cautions former U.S. Senator John E. Sununu (Republican, New Hampshire), who points the finger at the United States government over instituting tax laws that discourage corporations like Apple from repatriating its $40 billion in overseas cash…(...)

| iPhone manufacturer Foxconn to build own iDevice accessories Posted: 27 May 2013 06:21 AM PDT
Taiwan’s Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. aka Foxconn, the world’s top assembler of consumer electronics, is mulling making and selling its own branded accessories in a move to diversify beyond assembling Apple products. Foxconn over the years has grown increasingly reliant on Apple contract and with increasing competition and Apple’s slowing growth, the manufacturer is starting to feel the pain, too. The Apple biz comprises an estimated 50 percent of Foxconn’s revenue, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday. And earlier this month, The New York Times similarly reported that Foxconn is looking beyond the iPhone and anticipating to mass-manufacture a rumored standalone Apple television set…(...)

| EU advances probe of iPhone sales tactics Posted: 27 May 2013 05:59 AM PDT
The New York Times back in March reported that a group of unnamed European wireless carriers complained to the European Commission about Apple’s strict volume and marketing commitments in regard to iPhone sales. Today, the Financial Times claims to have seen documents proving that Brussels is moving a probe into iPhone sales tactics to the next stage. The news couldn’t have come at a worst time for Apple, which earlier this month faced U.S. Senators who grilled CEO Tim Cook along with two other high-ranked executives over Apple’s tax avoidance tricks and refusal to repatriate revenue from sales made overseas…(...)
