[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBQQEcfkHoE&feature=player_embedded] Business Insider says they have a friend who knows some Apple employees who say that the iPad 3 will have a 3D display. We’re definitely not convinced. What we have heard however is that Apple is working on 3G gestures which they’ve patented and could be used in iOS devices – though those would be more for an Apple TV type device. There was an app that used the iPad 2 camera to figure out where your head was and made 3D objects appear on the screen....

For me, clearing your browser cache from time to time is just good hygiene especially when you consider how easy it is to track people who visit your website. Recently when I cleared the cache on my iPhone, I realized I’ve never explained the process here on my blog. Being that I’ve described the process recently for Chrome for iOS, I figured now was a good time to walk you all through the steps on the iPhone and iPad (they are identical btw…)....

[Update: 4:58 ET: The app is no longer available on the App Store.] Despite Apple’s strict review process for software distributed through the App Store, it’s still possible for malicious actors to take advantage of loop holes in the system to scam customers. The latest example is a rather sophisticated and devious trick used by an app that claims to read your heart rate through your fingertip using Touch ID. In reality, the app (which is currently on the App Store) uses your fingerprint to authorize a transaction for $89....

http://s.wsj.net/media/swf/main.swf According to the well-informed Wall Street Journal Apple is currently working on an iPhone that is half the size of the iPhone 4 and a major MobileMe overhaul for release this summer. The report is following up on Bloomberg’s report about a smaller iPhone but adds some new details such as the device’s “N97” codename and size. The WSJ also claims the new, smaller iPhone will be available “at about half the price of Apple’s main line of iPhones....

Apple iPhones have a good repo when it comes to device support in terms of hardware as well as software support. Their policy of supporting all their iPhone models with five years of comprehensive software updates gives a sense of security. This is the reason why most people feel comfortable even when buying a year-old model of iPhone. But what about iPhone models which were launched back in 2018 or 2019?...

Apple has announced that the iPhone X will go on sale in 13 more countries on November 24. It is currently available in 57 countries … It was estimated yesterday that Apple makes a higher margin on the iPhone X, despite its higher manufacturing cost.

New data from CIRP, Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, shows that iPhone XR was the best selling iPhone model in the United States over the past fiscal quarter, accounting for nearly 40% of total sales. Interestingly, the iPhone XS and XS Max combined accounted for just over 25%. Unsurprisingly, the iPhone XS was the most unpopular new iPhone, being outsold by its Max counterpart by a “more than two-to-one ratio”. Considering the XR subsequently outsells the XS Max by an even larger margin, we can assume there’s at least four iPhone XR sold for every one iPhone XS....

That good old camera app The camera app on the iPhones has been pretty basic, and while some people were expecting to see a few fireworks with the introduction of iOS 11, the camera app still remains largely the same. And unlike the iPhone 8 Plus that has a few additional photography tricks up its sleeve, the interface on the iPhone 8’s camera app remains more or less unchanged. The camera app has a circular white shutter button right in the middle; there is a gallery icon on the left and the camera switch (from rear to front) icon on the right....

A few months back, the iPhone overtook the 5 megapixel Nokia N95 as the most popular cameraphone on Flickr. Even though it looks like there was a slight hiccup since then, gasp, the iPhone appears to be widening the lead. As Flickr (Yahoo!) is a fairly international company with an international userbase and iPhone’s global distribution is just starting to approach that of the Nokia N95, we expect that margin to widen, even with the iPhone’s relatively paltry 2 megapixel, flashless camera....

And Apple is not immune to such disruptions.

It’s important to recognize that the manufacturing of the new iPhone 14 hasn’t yet begun....

Did you observe a big drop in your iPhone’s battery percentage even after leaving the device idle last night? A battery drain between 5 to 10% is considered normal, but anything above this range is not acceptable. Some iPhone 12 users have reported a 20% reduction in the battery level after they look at their phone the next morning. The problem is not just limited to a specific iPhone model; even many iPhone 13 users have reported the same issue....
