    3 Feb 2012 | 11:32 am
    Apple today updated iBooks [App Store] to version 2.0.1, bringing a fix for an issue that resulted in some iBooks Textbooks not opening in the application. Apple is not terribly specific about the issue, but it may be related to a complaint shared by USA Today almost immediately after the iBooks 2.0 launch and for which Apple had promised a fix.We're aware of a small number of iBooks 2 users having issues with the playback of the introduction movies when opening iBooks textbooks. It will be fixed soon in an upcoming software update.iBooks 2.0.1 is of course a free update to the already-free…

  • 'The Daily' Reports 100,000 Paying Subs on One-Year Anniversary

    One year ago today, News Corp. launched its iPad-only newspaper called The Daily. It was the first app to take advantage of the "In-App Subscription" feature that Apple launched the same day. The Daily is available to subscribers for $0.99/week or $39.99/year and Mashable reports that the newspaper currently has more than 100,000 paid subscribers on the iPad alone. Rupert Murdoch, head of The Daily's parent company News Corp. said when the paper launched that it would take 500,000 paying readers to break even, though publisher Greg Clayman told Mashable that profitability is in sight:…

  • Dexim Visible Green iPhone Cable Makes Charging More Visible

    Jordan Golson
    31 Jan 2012 | 1:50 pm
    While most USB-charged Apple products like the iPhone and iPad come with a USB charging cable in the box, there is a thriving third-party market for these easily lost accessories. Dexim's $20 Visible Green USB-Dock Connector cables have a distinctive twist: they use electroluminescence to "visibly show the electrical current flowing through the cable". Completing the illusion is the fact that there are multiple speeds that the current can "flow", adjusting with the battery life of the device it's charging. While perhaps not the most practical iPhone charger, particularly for bedside…

  • Steam Companion iPhone App Now Available to All Users

    Jordan Golson
    31 Jan 2012 | 1:22 pm
    Launched in beta last week, Valve has opened up its Steam iPhone companion app to all users. The app allows Steam users to view their Steam friends list, see what games their friends are playing, and chat with players in-game. Gamers can also browse and purchase from the Steam library of titles from the iPhone, to play later on a PC or Mac. However, there is no purchasing of iOS games through the app, something that, aside from the fact that Steam doesn't support any iOS games, Apple would surely frown upon. Steam Mobile for iPhone is available free on the App Store. [Direct Link]

    When Apple announced that its new Siri assistant would only be available on the iPhone 4S last October, it caused quite a commotion in the iOS community. It meant that millions of iOS users, even those who recently purchased new devices, would have to go without the feature.We’ve heard a couple of theories on why Apple chose to make Siri 4S-only, including the need for a solid selling point for its new handset, and the fact that it’s still in beta. But according to a recent CNET report, it’s all about the processor…(...)Read the rest of Another Theory on Why Siri is…

  • Random Coolness: Viewing Individual Sub-Pixels From A MacBook Air Screen

    Joe Tomasone
    5 Feb 2012 | 5:45 pm
    On a recent business trip, I bought my daughter a toy microscope, and while playing with it (such toys are never exclusively for the kids, you know), I decided to look at the MacBook Air’s screen through it. While I always intellectually knew how red, green, and blue elements make up an individual pixel, I’d never actually seen these sub-pixels before. I managed to get a (crappy) picture of it (below).As you can see, each individual pixel is made up of three tic-tac shaped sub-pixels arranged horizontally next to each other; one red, one green, and one blue. By varying the…

  • How We Use Notifications on iOS 5

    Thomas
    5 Feb 2012 | 3:00 pm
    iPhone and iPad notifications used to be limited to just pop-ups on the home screen, lock screen, and inside of apps. Then iOS 5 came along late last year and gave users many more options, including an Android-like Notification Center, five-second banners as alternatives to pop-ups, and great new slide-to-unlock notifications on the lock screen.In fact, Apple gave users a surprising amount of control over notifications in iOS 5 – enough so that one iPhone can function very differently from another, depending on the way that users have set up the flow of notifications.

  • Study: iOS apps crash more than Android apps do

    Mike Schramm
    5 Feb 2012 | 1:30 pm
    Mobile OS crash analysis firm Crittercism (Really? Who's naming this stuff?) has posted the chart above, which shows that as a percentage of crashes overall, the latest version of iOS claims the highest total. In fact, many versions of iOS show a large percentage of crashes, and clearly iOS overall seems more prone to have an app crash rather than Android. Of course, there are quite a few qualifiers here. This data has been normalized, so we can presume that this isn't just a quirk of the numbers: There are likely more crashes happening on iOS devices than Android devices, and not just…

  • Motorola wants 2.25 percent of Apple sales to license patents

    Chris Rawson
    4 Feb 2012 | 4:00 pm
    The ongoing patent spat between Motorola and Apple has reached an interesting crossroads. Just recently a German court granted an injunction against sales of many of Apple's 3G-bearing products, including older model iPhones and the iPad. That injunction held for less than a day, however, pending further review of Motorola's claims against Apple. Florian Mueller of FOSS Patents found new information that suggests Motorola has offered to end the patent dispute and license its wireless patents to Apple -- in exchange for 2.25 percent of Apple's sales. It's unclear whether this is a percentage…

  • Former Apple employee recounts how Jobs motivated iPhone team

Borchers recently gave a talk to students at a California school talking about the thought processes that were involved in the iPhone's development. Borchers says that Steve Jobs didn't have a specific device in mind, but instead gave the team a mission: create a phone that people would love so much that they'd never leave the house without it. Borchers believes that Apple has been so wildly successful with…

  • Daily iPhone App: NFL Flick Quarterback

    3 Feb 2012 | 5:30 pm
    If you want to pass like Tom Brady from the comfort of your living room chair, then you should grab a copy of NFL Flick Quarterback for the iPhone. The app is a flick-style passing game that lets you take on the role of an NFL quarterback. The game isn't a full-fledged football simulation like Madden 2012, but a passing game as its name suggests. Even though it focuses on only one aspect of the gridiron game, NFL Flick Quarterback is a lot of fun. You star as a quarterback of your favorite team and get to choose your jersey number. Your goal is to complete passes to receivers down field.

    Seamus Blackley is one of the co-creators of Microsoft's original Xbox console, and he put together a really interesting team of old-school Atari game developers recently to make mobile games. Blackley's new company is called Innovative Leisure, and while the website isn't anything more than a groovy logo, the devs he's got on board make for a pretty impressive list: Ed Rotberg (who made Battlezone), Owen Rubin (Space Duel), Rich Adam (who worked on Missile Command), Ed Logg (the creator of Astroids and Centipede), Dennis Koble (who programmed Shooting Gallery), Bruce Merrit (creator of Black…

It’s great because it’s a part of the current Messages or Texting app. For iPads and iPod touches, you’ll get a new app that wasn’t there before. For iPhones, It’s part of the same app used before for texting but won’t cost as a text through your carrier if both parties have iMessage. This will not work for regular phone numbers.

    Prizm may be valuable to those who need to carry around a stand, but don’t have a lot of room to pack it. The two flat pieces take up very little space when disassembled and are quite light, making it convenient to throw them in a bag or even some sleeves. While none of the points are sharp, some users will find the metal-on-metal sound that occurs pretty much whenever the halves are in contact grating, and we’d be careful about using…

    Rene Ritchie
    5 Feb 2012 | 10:42 pm
    Samsung has aired another of their good-natured iPhone attack adds, which should be an occasion for merriment and ego-prickly good fun. But once again the commercial feels like it missed it’s mark. Or rather, the whole series of commercials still seem awkwardly in search of a mark. This one stars the latest in Samsung’s broad-range of devices, each separate by a different Galaxy monicker and roughly 0.25-inches of screen size, the Galaxy Note. It’s something that can’t quite make up it’s mind between being a phone and a tablet — I’m not going to call…

    Nielsen crunched Q4 numbers today, and the results will likely have Apple analysts jumping up and down. The findings, focused on those who’ve purchased a smartphone within the previous three months, indicate a huge spike — from 25 percent in October to 45 percent in December — in iPhone purchases since October as an obvious result of the launch of the 4S. Conversely, the number of recent Android buyers fell by 14 percent in the same period. Of course, these numbers are directly affected by Apple’s latest product launch and by no means should be any indicator that Apple…

Sadly and surprisingly for tablet early-adopters that was not the case, with the Transformer Prime first to hop the update train to Ice Cream Sandwich Town. A week later the Xoom is now catching up, with an OTA update percolating down from the cloud to users, but for the moment it appears only American Wi-Fi versions of the slate are receiving.

      What may appear to be just another iPhone case on the surface is actually part of a series of remarkable illustrations called "Atrocities" — created by emerging Toronto artist Brad Pickard. "Shark vs Gorilla" is quickly becoming a popular iconic image that makes one wicked cool iPhone case and has already sold out as a skateboard deck. I was taken by Pickard's body of work which includes brilliantly disturbing images like "Octogirl" and "Lobsterboy", but his wildly original "Atrocities" series is a force to be reckoned with —…

    When Apple announced, four years ago, that they would be releasing an iPhone SDK (for free) and opening an App Store where developers far and wide could peddle their creations, it became immediately clear to us that iOS (née iPhone) gaming was going to be huge. As developers jumped on board and began crafting titles for the platform, many noted that a game creation environment emerged that harkened back to the early-'80s home computer days when a single developer could sit down with an idea, bang out some code, and sell his game at the store down the block -- a floppy wrapped up nicely in a…

I've found myself saying for the past year how much I wish Battleheart was fleshed out into a larger game, as saying that Battleheart left me wanting more would be the largest understatement of 2011. We've covered how Raid Leader works in our preview: In Raid Leader, you'll be taking a knight, a mage, and an archer, against a variety of damage-eating, MMO-like bosses that all appear to have special mechanical hooks. For example, there's a yeti-like monster with a freeze spell that turns its target into a…

Since then, I've spent quite some time, on and off, not only about the idea itself but also on sharing to the world the process of building the application. What if someone steal my idea? Well, this kind of thing can happen as soon as someone post about his or her work on the internet. Maybe someone is reading my blog and is waiting in the dark for my next blog post about this app so he can start coding and publish on the App Store.

There are available in standard formats for only 8$.  The last one is from http://geomicons.com/. Very nice and simple icons there too.

The catch is that the unlocked iPhones operating on the T-Mobile network don’t work that well according to most users. The reason is that the iPhones operating on the network only have access to T-Mobile’s old 2G network, because they lack the support for T-Mobile’s 3G spectrum. The good news for iPhone users on T-Mobile is that the carrier is planning to improve the support for iPhones starting on January 30, which is…

If anything, what the developer has demonstrated with it is the feasibility of releasing an app and attaching a minimal price point to it with the self-assurance that a considerable number of customers will take notice since all necessary steps were apparently…

    Anyone who uses NSDate knows that the output format can be pretty unpleasant looking. This output is not something that you would generally present to your users. So what is an Objective-C programmer to do with dates? The answer is to use NSDateFormatter to create date formats and get data objects formatted as strings that you can present to your users. You will specify date formatter dates using the Unicode data format patterns. So, let’s assume for the moment that you have today’s date set up: NSDate *todaysDate = [NSDate date]; If you want to present this you would do something…

It seems natural to try to write something like: NSString *string1 = @"A"; NSString *string2 = @"B"; if(string1 == string2) //do something else //or not NOTE: ^ the code above will not work… But, that doesn’t work because strings are objects and if you want to compare strings you will need to use the NSString object methods that Apple has made available to you.

    Commit Review for iPhone – Are you Commited?Commit is a simple app that helps you with committing to something. Features are not what this app is about. Its about committing to something and tracking it to provide motivation. The idea is to keep track of how well you are doing on your commitment.The simple interface of Commit for iPhone is what makes it so appealing to me. When I think about committing to something, the trouble I have is staying motivated. Commit aids in this process by tracking just how many days you’ve done what you’ve committed to.Commit’s alerting system…

  • Update: Scribblenauts Remix Review

    3 Feb 2012 | 5:36 pm
    Since we last updated our review, Scribblenauts Remix has had multiple content updates, offering a new sandbox skin for Valentine's Day and a DLC pack. Should you spend a dollar on this new content, and does it bump this DS classic into Must Have range? The DLC pack costs $.99 for 20 levels, all of which are taken from the two DS games, plus a new sandbox. The 20 levels chosen are mostly unimaginative. For example, one puts you on the pitching mound across from a baseball player and umpire with the direction of "play ball." Another requires you to rescue a cat from the top of a house.Other…

  • Reckless Racing 2 Review

    3 Feb 2012 | 3:45 pm
    There's not much reckless about this racing sequel. Polarbit's recent Reckless Getaway spin-off had plenty of cop chases and crazy stunts, and the original Reckless Racing played with good ol' Southern stereotypes. But there's nothing haphazard about the way Polarbit improved on every aspect of the original game for Reckless Racing 2. Reckless Racing 2, like its predecessors, uses a top-down perspective that makes this racer feel more like an arcade game than a simulation. Unless you've memorized each track, you're going to have trouble anticipating every turn due to the limited visibility,…

  • Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective Review

    3 Feb 2012 | 12:35 pm
    Shu Takumi is a brilliant man. You may know him as the mind behind Ace Attorney, the series of quirky lawyer games where you must prove a client innocent against improbable odds. His most recent work, Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, was released for the Nintendo DS in 2010. This gem won Handheld Game of the Year awards from many major websites, and now Ghost Trick has found its way onto the App Store, where it’s better than ever. Ghost Trick’s story is tough to sum up without giving away any major twists, but the premise is that you play as Sissel, a ghost who has the special gift of…

  • Gun Strike Review

    3 Feb 2012 | 11:55 am
    Gun Strike is a fairly basic targeting game with sharp, cartoonish 3D graphics and the usual three-star per level structure. The game hearkens back to the days of arcade-style gun games, and as far as pure shooting galleries go, it’s not terrible. Unfortunately, while there plenty of levels for a $.99 purchase, there’s just not much variety. While a lot of iPhone target shooters tend to stick to the range, with flip-up mock targets, Gun Strike at least throws you into the fray against armed soldiers. Each level spews out waves of three or four bad guys, all of whom will start shooting…

Now the last of them have been added, bringing the total up to the initially promised twelve. It makes for an extensive collection of mini-genres, from the “find the item” graphical adventure style of the Prequel through the old-school puzzle gameplay of The Red Weed (Part 1) and ultimately drawing to a close with the arcade-like viral infection of Dead London. It’s a collection that…

I didn’t have a live body to test this application in the 2 player mode (played on the same device), so I ventured into single player mode.

All of my blogs use the WordPress engine and while I've used the official WordPress App, I find it lacking in several areas for formatting my posts the way I like. I'm especially picky when it comes image placement. Until now my favorite iPad blogging App had been BlogPress and while BlogPress is a GREAT APP, I'm actually blown away by the capabilities of Blogsy.

    On this site I feature many different open source libraries, and with the addition of automatic reference counting to the iOS SDK getting these projects to work can be tedious. If you are trying to use a library that is not created to work with ARC enabled projects you can turn off ARC altogether for the library files, or convert the project. However, if you are working on a project, and wish not to use ARC you’re kind of stuck. Fortunately John Blanco has written a set of macros that you can use with your code that will automatically make it work with both ARC and non-ARC projects. For…

    Being able to test different network conditions is important if your app performs any networking .  The last thing you want is the user being stuck, or some functionality not working at all because the user is on a mediocre networking connection. If you’re running :ion there is a built in utility that adds a new system preferences pane allowing you to set different network speeds, packet loss conditions  and latency found under: /Developer/Applications/Utilities/Network Link Conditioner/. You’ll need to reboot after setting things up for your  network limitations to take…

As with the previous titles Minoraxis delivers a competent translation, solid controls and menus that are reliable as they are attractively designed. Sadly, there are cases where a developer can do everything right but still fall victim to the reality that a genre has grown stale, and that sums up my feelings on Soul Tamer Kiki (Out Now, $1.99 Release Sale).

      This post is fairly technical in nature, but also fairly accessible. Inter-app communication is still in its infancy. Indeed, as powerful software publishers would have it, each app or each suite of apps would attempt to lock users into a unique file format to achieve a sort of monopole. This is clearly what Microsoft was doing in the 90s with MS Office. Since then, the strong competitive and market forces got the best of the crypted files – Microsoft eventually gave way and started allowing a “clear” version of their files (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx), and even published…

  • How to Build a Fantasy App by Using Magic (Strategic Design 4)

    Josh Olson
    25 Jan 2012 | 10:03 am
    "I endorse this message" — Plato The strategic design of our next app, Languages, continues apace. In the last post we gained an understanding of our personas’ experience without an app. We now need to imagine how an ideal app could make this experience 100% better, without worrying about bothersome constraints such as money, technology, time, or reality. It’s time to build a Platonic app (Plato, as you’ll recall, thought that all physical things are fail and that their is an ideal, perfect form of all things floating in heaven). Construction materials include…

  • Mapping out the User Experience (Strategic Design Part 3)

    Josh Olson
    19 Jan 2012 | 11:18 am
    Back to Languages. So we are describing the process of strategic design, in which we figure out the company’s goals, the user’s goals, and the intersection of the two. The purpose of this is to create an app that exists at that point of intersection. First, we established Tapity’s goals for the Languages app. Then we developed user “personas”—fictional users with concrete characteristics. Now we can move on to the next step of strategic design: user experience mapping. Now that we have our personas, we need to map out their current experience without an app.

  • Startup Plays: How to market an iOS app

    Jeremy
    10 Jan 2012 | 10:04 am
    Woah, way too much me in that picture Startup Plays is a really cool concept: break down the information and processes it takes to run a successful startup into actionable “plays”, templates to success in a particular aspect of the business such as getting your company incorporated or pitching a VC. I was a bit skeptical when Scott Annan first asked if I could help build a play on iOS app marketing but, after looking through a sample play, I found that the format is really unique and valuable. It is essentially a down-to-earth to-do list your team can run through from start to…

  • Mobile Accessibility: First Impressions

    On December 5-6, I attended the M-Enabling Summit in Washington, D.C. The purpose of this conference was to consider how to make mobile devices and applications accessible to persons with disabilities and the elderly. I am new to the accessibility field, and I want to share my initial impressions and take-aways from the standpoint of an app designer: Nothing about us without us. The siren call at the conference from those with disabilities was “Nothing about us without us!” People with disabilities are used to being thrown a bone here and there so that corporations can say they…

  • Personas: some assembly required (Strategic Design 2)

    Josh Olson
    23 Nov 2011 | 1:49 pm
    Now we’ve established how Languages serves our business goals, identified the market, and sized up the competition. We’re convinced that the app is a good idea. The preliminary investigation ends. We can now pull out the microscope to analyze our potential users. We first have to identify all of their relevant characteristics. We have a leg up, in this regard, because I happen to be a linguaphile. I’ve studied various languages seriously (Espanol, Italiano, Deutsch) and have dabbled in many more (Latin, Greek, Swedish, Old English). I’ve studied languages over an…

  • iPhone/iPad App Review – Smash Cops

    Andy Boxall

    Smash Cops is a brilliant idea.

    [SIZE=1]Number of app crashes by percentage.[/SIZE] A recent report (represented graphically above) by crash analysis firm Crittercism claims iOS apps crash more often than Android Apps. But, the results aren't exactly "cut and dry." Critiercism’s chart showing the total percentage of app crashes based on iOS and version number clearly shows iOS has more app crashes than Android. The data has been normalized so the numbers aren’t statistically irrelevant (we presume), especially since they analyzed 215 million app crashes across the two platforms

    5 Feb 2012 | 11:46 pm
    Samsung’s much anticipated anti-Apple campaign ad aired during a break in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl XLVI just earlier today. The 90-second spot, which was set to the British band, The Darkness’ 2003 hit “I Believe in a Thing Called Love,” depicted Apple users being tired of waiting for “the next best thing” and decided to convert to the new Samsung product. According to an estimate provided by the financial blog 24/7 Wall St, the ad estimated out to cost roughly $10.5 million in airtime alone and included cameos from The Darkness lead singer Justin Hawkins and Chicago…

For many of us, it is the most useless application that we could have ever asked for because almost all of the subscriptions cost money - something that a lot of us don't feel the need to spend. For this reason, many tweaks have been invented to hide Newsstand to get that annoying empty and useless icon off of our home screens. One being…

    Marty Yawnick
    6 Feb 2012 | 5:07 am
    Instagram is one of the most insanely popular photo apps for iPhone. Since its introduction over a year ago, it has amassed over 15 million users. An Android version is “in the works” as is a rumored Windows Phone version as well. While maybe not the best social photo app in the store, it’s the most popular and it’s arguable that the number of people who use it as well as the community that has sprung up around Instagram are huge reasons for it’s continued popularity. It’s easy for people to connect with Instagram. I use Instagram, especially when I travel.

Right after this post went live, the prices of both apps went back up to $1.99 and the mention of the discount was removed from the App Store description. This may be another glitch (It’s rare, but I’ve seen this before with other developers). I’ve contacted MorokoshiMan to see if they’re aware of this and to see what’s up. I’ll keep you posted.

One approach is to price apps at $.99 or free and then encourage in app purchases.  This decreases the friction point to higher priced apps but leaves the room for…

This morning, a court temporarily suspended an injunction that prevented Apple from selling or distributing iOS devices believed to infringe certain Motorola Mobility patents.
