AirPort Utility, the Apple-made iPhone, iPad and Mac app used to manage the company's now-discontinued line of AirPort-branded wireless appliances, has been updated on App Store earlier this week with native display support on iPhone X and iPad Pro.
Apple this morning invited select members of the press to its most important media event of the year where the Cupertino technology giant will be announcing a new iPhone family for 2018, likely several new Apple Watch Series 4 models and possibly other gadgets as well.
Apple's upcoming 2018 iPhone lineup won't offer support for Apple Pencil, despite previous claims. The reason is the lack of a "good user experience," according to respected Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Apple is expected to retire the tenth anniversary iPhone X next month after the handset spent less than a year on the market. Nonetheless, the iPhone X design will live on in the release of three new Apple handsets for 2018.
With just weeks to go before Apple's expected to reveal three new iPhones for 2018, two new rumors have emerged. TrendForce suggests at least one of the new handsets could support Apple Pencil while two will offer 512GB in storage. Both would be firsts for the product line.
With probably about a month to go before the big reveal, Apple has certified all the key component suppliers for this year's iPhones. As such, these suppliers are now in the process of shipping large component qualities, including camera lenses, metal chassis, and other parts to Apple's larger manufacturers such as Foxconn, according to Economic Daily News.
Samsung Electronics today at the Unpacked 2018 press event announced a next-generation Galaxy Note 9 phablet alongside new smartwatch models. The new Note has a 6.4-inch 2960x1400 Super AMOLED-based Infinity Display, an all-day 4,000mAh battery, faster internals, more storage and an upgraded S Pen stylus with Bluetooth LE support for things like triggering photos, controlling slideshows and media playback and so forth.
The iPhone X’s notch compelled Apple’s to redesign the handset’s Status Bar to make the best use possible of the free space available. The result doesn’t look that bad, but software tinkerers in the jailbreak community always find ways to improve trivial things of this nature.
A prime example is a new free jailbreak tweak called FreeRAMUnderTimeX by iOS developer i4M1k0SU. Just as the name suggests, this tweak displays the amount of free RAM you have right under the time indicator in the iPhone X’s Status Bar.
We still don't know when Apple's multi-device AirPower wireless charging mat is coming, but if you need a Qi charger for your iPhone, Logitech just unveiled a new wireless charger for iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus that lets you use your phone while it's being charged.
Being that I’m a huge fan of PC gaming, a particular new jailbreak tweak dubbed ChromaHomeBarX by iOS developer Afnan Ahmad grabbed my attention while I was perusing the recent releases in Cydia this week.
Just as the name implies, ChromaHomeBarX augments the appearance of your iPhone X’s Home Bar with Razer Chroma-inspired animated color effects, as shown above.
The iPhone X’s OLED display and ‘notch’ paved the way for Apple to get creative with incoming notification alerts. But as usual, Apple didn’t go all out; incoming notifications look just about the same on the iPhone X as they do on any other iOS handset.
But a new jailbreak tweak dubbed Notchification by iOS developer c1d3r can change that, as it compliments your iPhone X’s notch and OLED display combo with a bevy of attractive new notification animations that are sure to catch your eye.
