iOS 7 brings hundreds of improvements to our iOS devices, so it’s no surprise that Apple wasn’t able to preview all of them at WWDC. Don’t worry, though – one of the best things about using beta software is digging through every corner of the operating system to find those features that haven’t been publicized. Everybody and their grandmother has been…
I’ve only had the pleasure of using iOS 7 for a few hours now, but I must admit that I’m impressed. The redesign really extends to every level of the operating system – from the smallest detail (like the live clock icon) to the biggest changes (Control Center), everything feels complete, well thought out, and totally uniform. It’s still “iPhone” enough…
Apple announced a ton of great things at this year’s WWDC keynote address. Our favorite fruit company started off strong by debuting updated MacBook Air models that boast 40% faster graphics and a crazy boost in battery life (9 hours for the 11-inch model and 12 hours for the 13-inch model). The ultra portable laptops are powered by Intel’s 4th-gen…
While it is widely believed that this year’s Worldwide Developer’s Conference will be largely be focused on software, recent rumors suggest we could see some new hardware as well. More specifically, a report from 9to5 Mac claims that Apple will announce a new generation of its hyper-portable MacBook Air lineup. Both the 11-inch and 13-inch models are said…
1. iPhone 5S concept I really like this concept because it doesn’t strive to reinvent the iPhone or make it something it’s not. Instead, it capitalizes on what customers already love about the iPhone 5, and just improve upon that. By increasing the size of the screen but maintaining the overall footprint of the iPhone 5, you get the best of both worlds….
Tim Cook D11 interview Tim Cook touched on most of the things Apple rumors have been focused on over the past few months: iOS 7, iWatch, Apple TV, etc. The things that got me most excited were what Cook said about iOS 7 and what he said about an Apple TV. First, he reaffirmed that Jony Ive had a huge part in the development of iOS 7. Even though we…
1. Facebook Messenger updated Facebook has updated its dedicated messenger application to include a few much needed features. Most notable among the changes are the addition of the swipe to delete function and stickers, which are emojis but enormous and much more funny looking. I don’t personally use this app, but it’s definitely nice to see Facebook…

For most of the iPhone’s life, it’s had a consistent screen size – 3.5 inches. In the latest generation of the device, Apple finally granted eager customers a change by introducing a 4-inch Retina Display. The jump in screen size was almost universally welcomed by the iPhone customer base, but there are still some out there who aren’t yet…
