Good Technology is out with its latest report examining share of mobile platforms in the enterprise and in it noted that iOS was able to grow its market share following the introduction of the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. The increase from 67% last quarter to 69% during Q3 isn’t a huge one, but it’s notable given it comes at the expense of Android OS just over a month into sales of the new Apple devices....

Devices running Android outsell devices running iOS. That’s not a topic of contention, it’s a fact. At Google I/O 2013, the search giant revealed that they’ve activated 900 million Android devices, but it’s one thing to activate a device and another thing altogether for that device to be in use. According to the chart above from Flurry Analytics, the number of Android devices in use exceeded the number of iOS devices late last year, but then look what happened to the growth rate....
In a very uncharacteristic move for Apple, the company today decided to address recent concerns among its pro market and pre-announce an all-new, rethought Mac Pro in the cards for next year at earlierst. Less exciting is the spec bumps that make the current lineup more affordable in the meantime, and the company also added in confirmation that new iMac models are coming later this year. But is Apple’s pre-announcement for new Mac Pros enough to address pro concerns?...
During the WWDC 2022 opening keynote on Monday, Apple highlighted how iOS 16 enhances the gaming experience with updates to the Metal API and a redesigned Game Center. In addition, iOS 16 adds support for even more game controllers, including Nintendo’s Joy-Cons and Pro Controller. As noted by Riley Testut, the developer behind Delta and AltStore, it is now possible to pair Nintendo Switch joysticks with iPhone and iPad (and possibly Mac and Apple TV) running the latest beta software....
You can find the predefined signatures in Introspy in the signatures.py file inside the analyzer folder. From here, we can see that a signatures consists of a title, description, a severity level and a filter which consists of the method calls that correspond to the signature. So let’s look at a sample signature. Over here, you can see a signature that checks whether the application uses Pasteboards or not. Pasteboards are generally very insecure as they can allow an application to copy some data from the Pasteboard into their application....
Image courtesy of AllThingsD Apple’s education event is underway at New York City’s Guggenheim Museum, where Phil Schiller, the company’s vice president of worldwide marketing, provided an update on key metrics related to Apple’s education business. Remarking that the United States “is not at the top of industrialized nations,” Schiller said: “If you’re a freshman, you only have a 70 percent chance of graduating.” After playing a video that outlined the problem with U....
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqr7a0ekmS8&w=640&h=505] FaceTime has long been seen as the iPad’s main glaring omission, and now you can partially solve this with a hack courtesy of “Intell.” The several step process is noted to be risky, but the end result (video above) is very cool and seems to work as advertised. The hack installs the iPod touch 4 FaceTime application on the iPad, with a full-screen, optimized user interface. This interface looks very similar to that of the FaceTime application on the iPod touch, but does leverage iPad-specific user interface elements, like the silver navigation bar at the top....

Don’t just take my word for it, as our first impressions review notes just how perfect its size is without sacrificing on performance....

Consumer Reports states that for the first time in recent years, Apple beat out Samsung and Google in its latest smartphone ratings. The iPhone 11 Pro Max came in first place. But all is not rosy in iPhone land. It seems wireless charging speeds are slower than they used to be. We’ll tell you why. Apple holding back on charging speed When wirelessly charging your iPhone 11 that runs iOS 13....

The iPhone 14 satellite comms feature will be hard for rivals to copy, even though other smartphone makers may be able to offer more limited services. Our sister site SpaceExplored last week revealed that Apple was expected to use 85% of Globalstar’s capacity for the service, and a new report today says that this is a contractual agreement dating back to negotiations in 2019 … iPhone 14 satellite comms The iPhone 14’s Emergency SOS via Satellite feature was one of the headline announcements made during last week’s Apple event, and the reason for the Far Out name and space visuals....
Over the last few years, several devices, from the BlackBerry Storm to the Palm Pre, have hit the market hoping to be an iPhone killer, but none of them have so far succeeded. And now, Motorola Droid is hoping to pose a serious challenge to iPhone’s supremacy in the ever-growing smartphone market. Amongst the wannabe iPhone killers, Motorola Droid is probably the fastest and has one of the best display screens available....

Miller also compares the iPhone 8 dummy unit to the 5....
The latest iPhone 9/SE 2 renders from Onleaks again show something extremely close to the iPhone 8 design, with just two visual changes. This time, we’re seeing iPhone 9 video renders rather than just static images. Instead of a glossy glass back, there is a frosted glass one, like the iPhone 11 Pro finish. The Apple logo is also vertically centred as per all three iPhone 11 models… In all other respects, the renders show something identical in form factor to the iPhone 8, matching reports that the new entry-level iPhone will essentially be an iPhone 8 with A13 chip — and without 3D Touch, as Apple has now abandoned this tech in favor of a long press....

Yesterday’s report that we’ll see an iPhone punch-hole display next year raised quite a few eyebrows. Three main objections have been voiced. First, that a punch-hole is uglier and more distracting than a notch… From reader comments, for example: Personally, I think the aesthetic point isn’t really an issue. The vast amount of time, a punch-hole would be as invisible as the notch: just buried in the black area at the top of the screen....
A local news report last night from Denver’s 9News reveals a scheme setup at Apple stores in Colorado that saw iPhone traffickers convincing people in need of quick cash to sign contracts and hand-over subsidized iPhones. The traffickers would turn around and sell the unlocked iPhones for full retail, off-contract prices, but in exchange their unknowing accomplice is stuck with the monthly payments or faces ruined credit. The report also claims that Apple store employees appeared to be in on the scheme....
