Paid iPhone Apps FREE for Today!

September 30, 2014 by Noemi Leave a Comment

I don’t mind paying for iOS apps if I really want that app, and I know that I will be using it. You know, like Sim City 4 for the iPad… However, there are some apps that are rather too expensive for me, so I just wait till they are offered on discount or when […]

Funniest BendGate Tweets

September 29, 2014 by Noemi Leave a Comment

So it’s not like us to make fun of Apple, but we don’t mind making fun of things – even those that we like. One simply cannot ignore an iPhone 6 bending. It could be a flaw in the design. It could simply because the phone is so thin. We don’t know, although Apple has […]

It sure was big news when former Microsoft CEO (and employee number 30) Steve Ballmer bought the LA Clippers. Prior to him, the Dallas Mavericks’s owner, Mark Cuban, was probably the only “techie” owner in the league. (I could be wrong, though.) Source Now, in a probably not-so-surprising move, the new owner of the LA […]

Why iOS 8 Failed to Impress

September 25, 2014 by Brian Meyer 12 Comments

iOS 8 has been with us for just under 1o days now, giving everyone enough time to install it and get our feet wet. While Apple calls this their biggest update to iOS since the app store, the truth is that the latest iteration of Apple’s mobile OS is lackluster at best. iOS 8 seems […]

Apple: Sorry About iOS 8 Update Glitches

September 25, 2014 by Noemi Leave a Comment

Yesterday, we reported that Apple was getting ready for the iOS 8 update to iOS 8.0.1, and indeed, they released it. While many perhaps were expectant that the iOS 8 update would make the performance of their iPhones better, the result was quite the opposite. Source Instead of being satisfied, many iPhone 6 users who […]

Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon Star in iPhone 6 Ads

September 23, 2014 by Noemi Leave a Comment

Apple ads have always been brilliant, and to my knowledge, the company’s advertising group hasn’t stooped so low as to get back at their main competitor by creating ads that are meant to bash. From Your Verse to Strength, what I can see is that Apple ads are meant to inspire their customers, to tap into […]

1Password Is FREE for iOS!

September 18, 2014 by Noemi Leave a Comment

Remembering so many different passwords is such a pain, and that is why a lot of people just use one password or similar passwords – so they won’t forget. But we all know that that practice is a huge no-no. Knowing and doing – those two are totally different creatures, though. Thank God for apps […]

Will Emerging Markets Get Their Own iPhone?

September 17, 2014 by Brian Meyer Leave a Comment

It’s common to walk down almost any street in a country like the United States and see more than one iPhone.
