This is bullshit.
Oh and that similar Vessyl Cup
STILL not released, surprise surprise, looks like it's bullshit as well.
Nintendo has also hit the developer of GBA4iOS with DMCA takedown of the app. It will be gone from the official developer for the foreseeable future.

Dell has a decent computer recycling program though. And Greenpeace thinks Apple is the worst company in the world, environmentally.
(and I admit, they're not a great organization to be quoting, but still... worth noting.)
Reminder that you can use KeePass. It's free, open source. You can sync your passwords with Dropbox/GDrive/etc for free. All while being encrypted with no danger of the company being hacked or having the possibility of Google indexing your password.
And there are clients for Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS. So it's multiplatform. Plus plugins for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, SSH, Salesforce and a lot more.
Duet Display (by X apple guys) Works with the PC. They just did a major update that added some apple pencil support (no pressure sensitivity yet) I tweeted them and they said that support will come most likely in early 2016.
One thing to note is this does not support wireless like astro pad does.
On a scale of one to penis, how likely are you to get a dickpic?
edit: also, seems like it went under last year
This is just speculation towards Android. But I know its true of apple phones. It may be taking pictures to speed up loading times.
As weird as that sounds, Apple phones have this cute trick of taking screenshots of applications and browsers and then displaying the screenshot when loading a page to make it look like the page/app has loaded faster (This is why sometimes you will open an App on your iPhone and it will be unresponsive for a tick) to fool you into thinking the device is more powerful than it actually is.
It could be that Google are starting to use (Or have been using) the same process and that it has bugged and stopped deleting the files after use.
You realize Siri has existed since iPhone 3G right? Apple removed it from the App Store and killed the application servers to prevent all non-4S phones from using it.
No. Apple has a Holiday Hiatus where no apps are approved. They would be INSANE to release anything just before that because if there's a game-breaking bug, it'll sit there, at peak time DURING a holiday event... It would be chaos. They do it now. Soon. Get bug fixes all set. Release those. Make sure that it's as smooth of an experience that they can ensure, then turn on the event, and enjoy the profits.
For the uninitiated:
>SpotLock allows you to lock your iDevice by swiping to the Spotlight search page. Unfortunately, this will remove the ability to use Spotlight search. That isn’t a major loss for me, but if you use it often, this tweak isn’t for you.
Beats are just giant pieces of colored plastic with a big logo, there's plenty of headphones with better looks, comfort, sound, features, etc. http://appadvice.com/appnn/2014/06/forget-beats-plastic-headphones-consider-sennheisers-momentum-line
It's not a cruel joke - it's simply how currency markets work. Our dollar has weakened significantly against the US dollar in the past 12 months. On October 1st 2014, $1 NZD bought you $0.78 USD. Today $1 NZD buys you $0.62 USD. A 64GB Plus cost $1,299 NZD at launch, approx $1,013 USD at the time. Based on today's rates, the same $1,299 would get you $805.38 USD. Apple raised prices on the iPhone 6 in March this year to account for this.
The 128GB iPhone 6S costs $1,599 NZD here, while it costs $849 USD + tax (outright). $849 USD is approx $1,317 NZD, add on 15% GST and you get $1,514 NZD. Not outrageous.
You can't blame Apple for this, we're experiencing the same thing as OP here.
I have never heard of this game but interestingly, Ubisoft did make an IOS game about Robin Hood that seems to parallel the game you described: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2014/08/take-vengeance-on-the-evil-sheriff-in-ubisofts-little-raiders-robins-revenge
Have you checked out the Mandela Effect sub? It is all about the theory of accidental shifts to parallel universes. Perhaps you and your friend shifted here from a universe where Ubisoft decided to cancel development of their smartphone Robin Hood game, and create a full blown Skyrim style game.
Edit to add: The game you described sounds amazing! Would love to play something like this.
You're absolutely wrong.
Every revision needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure that there are no outstanding issues, and every network in the world is different.
I won't bore you with the technical details of how mobile networks and radio signals work, but it's a shitload of work and normaly operators go as fast as they can to validate and accept updates, and request the needed changes from the manufacturer.
The guys over at Vodafone Australia (VHA) did a nice three post article, explaining the overall process at a very high level.
It doesn't explain anything at technical level so you'll have to take my (and their) word on that, but it's very complex stuff.
As a sidenote, Apple devices are sent to operators months before the software update is actually released to the public, precisely for testing purposes. Despite this process, sometimes bugs slip through and as a result you get the most chaotic situation I've ever seen in this job.

Description from AppAdvice
> Today only: Unlock every last feature and theme free of charge! All you have to do is launch the app. Seriously, that’s it. If you’d like, you can tweet to share this awesome deal with family and friends from the launch screen. This deal is only available to new users.
It sounds like your iPhone 3GS previously had a baseband supported by ultrasn0w, and the iOS update caused it to get a new baseband that ultrasn0w doesn't support.
You can fix this by installing the iPad baseband with redsn0w, and then downgrading it to a better unlockable baseband also with redsn0w. See this FAQ about the iPad baseband.
Then install ultrasn0w. You'll also have to install ultrasn0w fixer since ultrasn0w isn't officially compatible with iOS 6 yet.
This is not exactly true. Siri will get smarter about recognizing your voice, but not necessarily to the exclusion of others. I believe the point is for Siri to learn your particular accent or speech patterns so she can always understand you, no matter how unusual your speech is.

Two recommendations:
Mesalation allows you to set a "grace period" for your device's passcode/Touch ID.
SkipLock allows you to bypass the lock screen altogether when there are no pending notifications.
I think the first one is what you're looking for, but they're both good tweaks. Sorry for not linking directly to Cydia, I don't have access to it right now.
*Edit: corrected SkipLock description
OP, your description is pretty much exactly SwipeSelection. I had problems with it because if you linger on a letter while typing (apparently I do this often), it activates the "cursor". SwipeShiftCaret just requires a single swipe left or right above the keyboard to move one character over. [edit: SwipeShiftCaret is customizable, and you can either do a single 'step' or just drag to move the cursor. I like it a lot!]
You could also try KBShortcuts for a more full-featured keyboard upgrade!
It is specifically about thinness. Thinness is the reason they patented a headphone plug and jack that was smaller, and ultimately why they choose to eliminate ports and make room for moving around internal components.
Lightning offers a digital signal to the headset, but it certainly does not offer an improved audio signal compared to standard analog headphone cable. The improvements you hear are from the quality of the headphones themselves, perhaps their converter is better than the DAC in the phone, not the signal carry.
Bluetooth is shit, as you say. It's currently better than the first time bluetooth audio was tried, at least!
You are right.
I can't help but see some comedy in the solution though.
"Interesting observation made about the air travel machines roughly contacting man made objects 4,654 days ago!"
"Individuals who handle spreadsheets and implied value vehicles lie to increase their holdings of said value vehicles with such vigorous efficiency as to rend the trust from the entire system which implies authority to said vehicles."
Unfortunately, targeting keywords is super effective. Because we look for keywords. It's a brain thing. Now, I can scan a ton of information, looking for a single combination of characters for hours. Because for some reason I give myself tasks that require me to know FOR CERTAIN that I am ordering the correct 50 cent bolt, and I like to see the schema to make sure, and then measure the application to make sure that I started with the correct terms. At least that's what I did when I started working on cars as a kid. Because I HATE crossed threads and bolt extraction with a PASSION.
And that was just because I didn't want to waste the gas going to the fastener store unprepared for the 20th time and ordering another 25 bolts that I didn't need. M5x110 for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
Sorry.
I like the idea of using images with text written on them. It could slightly increase the difficulty of censorship. But, if this is real: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2014/05/google-acquires-word-lens-the-iphone-translation-app-from-apples-latest-commercial , and there is a concerted government effort to modify opinion (duh) then the only effective method is going out into the rest of the web and directly communicating with forums. Or, you know, friends, neighbors, family...
If you can't talk about your theories with people in person, you may not understand the material evidence enough to defend your position.
Then again, I grew up perfecting the art of making people hit me first... Like a true American. :-D
Please read this, OP. It is very informative.
Also, what you are seeing in the App Switcher are not many apps actually running, they are actually just cached images of the apps appearance before it became inactive. They are not actually running at all.
"Reading list" syncs from Safari on desktop to Safari on iPhone/iPad and vice versa. i-devices even caches the site for offline reading.

There's a small maze of sources. The article I linked draws on this, this, and this source, with the latter two seeming to be the "originals".
Granted, it's hearsay, but I don't think it's an unlikely rumor, seeing as I believe Siri's delay in moving to older devices was a server capacity decision, not a sales decision. Here's to hoping we get Siri on our iPads soon - It'll be nice to be able to do a bit of navigation without having to take my gloves off this winter.
You realize Siri has existed since iPhone 3G right? Apple removed it from the App Store and killed the application servers to prevent all non-4S phones from using it.
I can vouch for these three personally:
Lucrin: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/07/review-luxurious-leather-apple-watch-bands-by-lucrin
Makergrafix: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/06/review-makergrafix-custom-leather-bands-for-apple-watch
Leathersy: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/06/review-leathersy-apple-watch-bands-offer-unique-style
I haven't been hands-on with the other two I mentioned, but they look nice from what I've seen online. They have more of the masculine, heavy-stitching look the OP is looking for.
I believe that it also works this way:
>"All you have to do is buy an iMac, MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, or Mac Pro. When you put the qualifying Mac and the Beats Solo2 On-Ear headphones in your shopping cart, Apple will apply an instant credit of $199.95 to cover the full cost of the accessory in gloss black, white, red, blue, gray, or pink. You can also upgrade to Beats Solo2 Wireless On-Ear headphones for an additional $100, the remaining balance after the $199.95 credit."
The baby blue band is from Lucrin. It's not only gorgeous but really high quality. I reviewed it:
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/07/review-luxurious-leather-apple-watch-bands-by-lucrin
Yes, the pearl flower one is from Etsy. I reviewed it also, but it sure didn't get a lot of love from the peanut gallery. Taste is individual; what can I say, I like girly stuff. :)

If you're really trying to stretch this thing you should look at jailbreaking and search around in r/jailbreak. I seem to recall there's a tweak that enables the Nitro engine in Chrome and other apps called Nitrous. There are some other little tricks to make it feel faster, I'm using some of them to limp my iPhone 4 along.
Edit: Here's an older article on Nitrous. I think it's more expensive now and you're going to want to double check compatibility with newer versions.
You should watch that video, he lists all the things that are nonsense and revisionist myths. The fact that Woz and co had been building and handing out personal computers before Steve even knew they existed shatters your nonsense of:
>He's one of the founders of the notion of a Personal Computer, if not The founder.
Also another scene in the film has steve jobs telling Woz that PCs are the future, with Woz being all like "I don't know man". Complete nonsense, as stated, the other guys had been pushing for PCs for years.
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2013/01/wozniak-on-jobs-film-clip-it-never-happened
Steves vision for Apple was to sell computer parts to anyone who wanted them, not build a PC until the other four co-founders persuaded him it was the future.
Also urban myths explained in that video that are often contributed to Steve Jobs in popular culture:
Steve Jobs picked these things up, and mastered them later in life. Not in the time frame that film was shot in.

They obviously have problems with a lot of their cases and end up fixing it later on.
>"For now, the NSA needs physical access to a device to install the spyware. This has been achieved by rerouting shipments of devices purchased online. A remote version of the exploit is also in the works."
So as long as your iPhone comes straight out from Taiwan with no detours there should be no case for concern. Maybe.
for me it was always too bulky for normal use, commuter series was excellent for every day use. But it was the Armor Series when I was on vacation or adventuring. The ease of locking the iPhone in when it came time for that added protection was great!
I snagged it for my iPad during the price drop in June, and I'd say it's quite worth it if you're a student (and an absolute steal at 99¢). I really like the schedule-viewing feature and along with the assignment tracker. The companion Mac desktop app ($9.99 on the Mac App Store), which includes many of the features of the mobile version along with automatic back-and-forth syncing, is a quite good as well. AppAdvice has a nice thorough review that you might like.
Also live in the UK, I think that the US is such a large size to be generalising all the accents into 1.
I find this Adorable (NSFW Language)
I don't like Jaime Pressly's voice or Robin Rhys's voice, I think it might be that their accents sound sharper (if that makes sense)
I hope this helps (as much as adding one person's opinion can in a generalization), but honestly most American accents are fine, don't worry about it too much!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_jailbreaking > Jailbreaking permits root access to the iOS file system and manager, allowing the download of additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store. (Wikipedia, no citations)
(just the title, but various other articles have similar titles)
It takes some effort to find any reliable sources on the technical aspects of a jailbreak, so these sources are just the result of a quick web search and aren't neccessarily reliable. I didn't spot anything denying root access, though I'd be interested to see your sources*.
I really don't know the details of a jailbreak, but given the default iOS account's limited permissions, I would assume any privilege escalation would use the root user rather than create a new account.
*EDIT: spotted sources in a reply another post, ~~I'll take~~ I've taken a look for balance.
spyappsmobile.com says you can't access the system files. I've read that iOS actually stores the system files on another partition (maybe?) with less encryption than user data (that would be how you can boot before entering your password). ~~It's possible write access to the system partition/thing is restricted as a fundamental part of iOS, and somehow even root can't access this most of the time, but honestly I can only speculate.~~ Maybe not, based on other replies.

Ok I got excited for a second looking that up because I was like "holy shit Micro Machines Racing got rebooted!" but then I looked up Micro Machines Racing to have a nostalgia trip and I find this article and see that it's the exact same game. I don't understand what happened here. Did they just rename the game with a Micro Machines brand logo and sell it on mobile?
Why wouldn't another screen protector work properly? As trw931 mentioned it's just an extra layer of hardness.. Here's a blog reviewer from 2012 for a version of Liquid Armor...

Planned obsolescence contemplates things becoming unfashionable or non-functional in some way. Obviously, there isn't much you can do about marketing to make goods seem unfashionable, and I probably wouldn't want to. And I wouldn't support a law that precluded gamemakers, for example, from making game systems that are incompatible with older cartridges (but I might argue that they should not be able to add something to a new system simply to make it incompatible with old cartridges when, absent that addition, it could be compatible with both the old and the new). I won't pretend that I could write out all of the laws and policies off the top of my head, but when I imagine such a system, it would simply target businesses that design things to break unnecessarily, or sell products they know cannot live pass the warranty due to some resolvable defect. I can think of a few examples, such as selling parts known to expire just after the warranty's end (note that this actually involved a lawsuit!), printers that will not print if the ink is lower than a threshold, even though it would be enough to print what you would need from it, preset lifespans (e.g., making it impossible to replace a dead battery without risking breaking the device), or placing heat-sensitive electronic components of computers near the hottest parts of a circuit board.
But I'm not 100% sure I agree with my own statement entirely. It's a kind of a system I would want to test-run for a couple of years, and I think that I would want to make it unappealing for plaintiff's attorneys just looking for settlements, like patent trolls or the guys who bulk-sue corporate entities do.
Does that answer your question?
The communicator series of phones were amazing. I've never used one, only ever read about them but I still covet them to this day. I'd love to buy one for the fun of it.
I think it could easily be arranged to replicate them with any modern smartphone if someone with the time, energy and money could be bothered, there's clearly a market for this sort of thing as every forum on the internet has quite a few threads about qwerty options for various phones.
I've done some drawings and plans for how I imagine you could adapt a modern smartphone to a reasonable looking QWERTY slider with minimal extra thickness of no more than 4mm, possibly even around 3mm to offer a tactile experience.
When you consider the features of that keyboard and gamepad, I think there would be a massive market considering how popular android and iphone gaming is.

22mm is the way to go - 20mm will look weird with the Apple Watch. I feel your pain - I also have small wrists (not quite as small as yours - 14.5 cm here) and find the 22mm watch bands available in stores to be enormous looking. Huge and masculine (I'm a woman and prefer a more delicate look.)
Keep checking Amazon, Etsy for band options. I think as the AW grows in popularity, more and more options will come available. I have this one (http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/06/review-makergrafix-custom-leather-bands-for-apple-watch) and it fits nicely but I wear it on the second tightest hole - it might still be too big for you. Patrick is great to work with, though - maybe he'd be willing to punch you another hole or two if you asked?
I think the oldest is iPhone 4. I tried it on my iPod touch and couldn't because I needed iOS 7 for the app. I ended up using an old unused 4s to download and setup my account. Here's a website that lists compatibility for iOS 7.
Actually, unless I'm misunderstanding this, the new Reserve & Pickup system will allow you to "preorder" the watch combo you want, it will be shipped to your designated Apple store, and then you will go in and try it out/pick it up, and you won't be charged until you're there and make the final purchasing decision. Of course, home shipping is available too, but you can essentially have it shipped to store.
There are a number of sources on this, here are a couple:

As in how i managed to play it on my ipad? I basically used this as a step by step guideline.
You could put it on a dock and use it as an AirPlay receiver, use it as a TV or an XBMC remote using apps from the App Store, use it as a bedside alarm clock, put music on it and put it in your car - there's loads you can do with it, but sadly not much in the way of jailbreaking, as most tweaks require at least iOS 6.0 or later to run (the iPhone 3G can only run up to 4.2.1.) If anyone wants to correct me here, though, that'd be great.
That's no longer correct for the latest version:
> Palm Support is like palm rejection, but better. It’s always on and you can use a regular capacitive stylus or even your finger. You can finally use gestures in tandem with resting your palm on the surface of the iPad screen without the worry of drawing over your canvas. Palm Support is completely transparent and will not interrupt performance or your workflow.
(4) In order to add widgets to your lockscreen you're going to want a tweak like Cydget or GroovyLock or something of the sort. If you want weather in a beautiful interface you can get Cydget and iOS 7 LockScreen Weather (here's where I found the info: Weather on Lockscreen). But basically start with Cydget or GroovyLock (I believe there are some more of these 'widget enabled tweaks' for the lockscreen)
EDIT: After reading replies on the given webpage, be careful with the above mentioned weather stuff. I have not personally tried the tweak and everything but I'm sure Cydget works fine since it's made by /u/saurik, but the weather tweak may not.
Probably not the statistics you are looking for, but they are as close as you are really going to get.
Rumor Article and also the only follow-up article I've seen on it. I'm curious as to more info also.
The pro version gives the option to offset the passcode by a selected integer and offers other options. Here's more info on the pro version I found.
Update...
Apple Is Expected To Retire The iPad 2 -- AppAdvice
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2014/02/apple-is-expected-to-retire-the-ipad-2
AppleInsider notes that the discontinuation of the iPad 2 “aligns” with a prediction made by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities last November. At the time, the analyst revealed that Apple was set to ship just 0.3 million iPad 2 units during the current quarter. This suggested to him that the device was nearing its end.
Reader, GameCenter Xbox live for 160 million active users of it on iOS. Guided Access, iMessage I'm sure you know about. Ad the game and data backups I can hit the home but after playing infinity blade or editing a document and instantly without me having to do a thing pick it up on my iPad or iPod touch or even Mac.
They haven't used it in quite a while... According to this, the last time they were was for the iPod with video:
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2012/10/apple-and-the-california-theatre-have-a-musical-history-together
AppAdvice had a good article detailing what's going on and how to identify if your "new" iPad2 has the new CPU or not. Unfortunately there's no identifying info printed on either the box or the iPad itself - so there's no way you can tell what you're getting in a store when you buy it. You have to turn it on and install a special app. Scroll down to the comments section of the article for one user's useful info about going to the "Diagnostics and Usage Data" page to examine .plist files.
Try this out It's an app that forces you to scan a preset barcode from anywhere in the house to turn of the alarm... Brilliant!
Here's an old article quoting MuscleNerd saying that OTA updates don't work on jailbroken devices.
To everyone commenting about it being A5 only, here's a quote from an article on appadvice:
Wow, that location-based reminder feature blew my mind. Has iOS always had that capability?
edit: Ah, it's part of the new Reminders app, very cool!
double edit: Only available in iPhone 4 and 4S :(
Then your phone is bricked. End of story.
Revert back to ios 4. http://appadvice.com/appnn/2011/07/how-to-downgrade-ios-5-to-ios-4
This is now necessary because it will also downgrade your baseband. You cannot downgrade your baseband on ios 5 now that you've done it via itunes.
Once you downgrade (assuming that it is successful) you may still have trouble activating your Gevey SIM... I am not sure. Sometimes you need to have a spare sim card of the original carrier as a spare for activation. Once activated on ios 4 you should be able to use your gevey sim again.
I don't have a specific source for you, sorry. I've just read bits and pieces of things all over the place, at least a good portion of it on /r/ipad and /r/jailbreak. They were suggesting the possibility of a userland jailbreak with iPad2 and maybe the iPhone4S. From what I read (I think) some exploits had been found in the beta versions of iOS5, and they were keeping quiet about them in the hopes that they'd still be there later on.
EDIT: Article with some source info: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2011/10/whats-up-with-the-untethered-ios-5-jailbreak
Sorry this is long but please read it all. I don't have hard data but I do have multiple people agreeing with me (I included links too) and I had an experience with it noted at the bottom:
This isn't hard data but if you Google around others agree with me... "By using this workaround method, you’re decreasing the number of times that Touch ID scans each finger, meaning that the accuracy could go down, thus resulting in less accurate results when attempting to unlock your phone."
https://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/09/23/register-five-fingers-iphone-5s-touch-id
It just makes since that it would work that way. You are using it in a way it wasn't meant to be used and as a consequence it's less accurate.
Also here... "It could be, however, that setting up Touch ID in this way compromises the security of the feature, since the handset is gaining a less accurate reading of each individual fingerprint."
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2013/09/how-to-teach-touch-id-to-recognize-more-than-5-fingers
And finally here... "This is not likely to work reliably. Touch ID is a learning system, and updates the reference scan every time you scan your finger. Having different non-matching references in one slot is going to confuse that. Either all but the one you use more frequently are going to stop working as it tunes the reference, or you may just get in a state where none of them work reliably."
http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/how-many-fingers-can-be-used-to-make-one-touchid.1859727/
Like I said earlier none of this is hard evidence but it did happen to my sister once. We were at the Apple Store messing with the new iPad models and the Touch ID scanner. She made it learn a fingerprint and she used her thumb and index in 1 slot and when it had her test it her pinky (never scanned in the learning process) was able to get in. This might have just been an issue with that 1 iPad. But it led me to believe that this makes it less accurate.
Misfit will sync with Apple HealthKit.
Does Pebble Health have any way for other apps to deliver data into it?

> Users will need to refresh the redemption page when signed in so it will generate a new code. Apple says the new code should work when entered into the Mac App Store.
Some people had similar issues a year ago with the El Cap beta program and that was the solution according to Apple:
Amazon Echo now lets you control Spotify, Pandora and iTunes using your voice
"Amazon Echo has just been updated with voice control support for Spotify, Pandora, and iTunes."
Sorry for having just done a quick search and saw that apparently it was possible only to realize once bought that the title was false... /s
Your mixing up iCloud with iTunes Match.
iCloud Music Library is a FREE service offered to allow you to store your music in the cloud and listen whenever and wherever you want.
iTunesMatch is a PAID service. That document does not relate here, as OP's article does not relate to iTunesMatch, but to Apple Music and iCloud Music Library.
Edit: Some Clarity
That looks like a horrible Bomberman rip off. Bomberman is the original, and is available in the Japanese iTunes store.
One that looks like a solid knockoff in the American store is Ninja Boy Adventures - that looks like your best bet. There are probably others.
Yours is actually a closer rendition when you look at the trail line of the 2 and 7.

Your comment exemplifies what Threes went through. A lot of people thought Threes was the rip-off, when it was actually the original. Ninja Fishing is the rip-off. Ridiculous Fishing is a sequel to Radical Fishing, which came first. So Ninja Fishing ripped off Radical Fishing.

Thanks for your support! We're pretty sad about the down votes too... Hopefully more people will give it a try. We do have some reviews now so feel free to check them out to know more about the game!

OP: > Iphone updates slow down older model phones making the users buy newer models.
You: > Apple wants you to update so that developers will support the newest APIs and features. > It really is as simple as the new software having higher requirements than the old.
I mean...it seems like you're saying the same thing. New software updates are expected to slow down old phones, yes. However, if new software updates slow your phone to the point that I described, there should have been a press release/announcement warning older-model users not to upgrade or just straight up tell them to buy the newest version. I don't see the choice/preference to stay at iOS 6 (had I known iOS 7 would've basically bricked my phone) any different from preferring to stay on Windows 7 when the craptacular Windows 8 was introduced (could be wrong on those version #s...went fully Mac a couple years ago).
Edit: If I had had the choice to upgrade rather than being forced into it, I wouldn't have been as salty about it. Relevant article
Exactly what part of "responses like mine" are so infuriating? It's such a semantic argument, but I've long since learned that Apple fanboys will jump down your throat for every little thing. I mean, I like their products, too, but come on.
The community of iPhone photographers is very broad and wide. I could point to quite a few "name" photographers who choose iPhone. There's good reason that the iPhone has been the most popular camera on Flickr for several years.

I recommend reading this article: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/10/for-my-new-apple-tv-is-32-gb-enough-or-do-i-need-64-gb
It has some really great information about app size and additional content.
I bought a logitech keyboard at the advice of this article: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/10/5-great-accessories-you-need-for-the-new-apple-tv
oh well. at least someone's put a comment on there about the non-compatibility
I actually think the third party Sport Bands I got from eBay are pretty great. Yes, definitely a different material, it's not as firm. But IMO just as good as Apple's for 1/5 the price, actually less, just $9 if you buy two or more. Mine seem to fit better than the MoKo band this reviewer has. In fact I'm going to order more, I'm just deciding on colors. I haven't tried the MoKo, so I can't say if mine are from the same manufacturer or not. All I can say is that I'm very satisfied with this cheap replacement band and I am picky about fit and finish.
If anyone wants a review and eBay listing link: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/10/review-a-bargain-knock-off-of-the-apple-watch-sport-band
Really, how much can it cost to make a rubber band? I think Apple's high pricing reflects the research that went into designing it (and, you know, it's APPLE we're talking about) more than the cost of the materials and production. The knock-offs get to piggy-back off of that R&D.
As for the other third party bands, I've tried and reviewed quite a few, and I will say that as a general rule, you get what you pay for. From what I've seen, a leather or metal band that is way cheaper than Apple's is unlikely to impress you. The best third party leather bands cost close to Apple's prices or even more. I have found a couple of cheaper ones that are quite nice (happy to provide links to my reviews but don't want to monopolize this thread), but they are few and far between.
Is this a relaunch of the BB1 game that it is already out for tablets?
Are they abandoning the existing version altogether for this variant?
Standalone or an expansion?
PS: Nevermind found a gameplay link and it seems like it's a completely separate app of the variant.

Not sure if this method still works, but it is probably the easiest.
Summary: Get all of your data on your iPhone (which should be the case anyway except for maybe old calendar appointments from a year ago or something), disconnect from iCloud and choose the options that save everything to your device, connect to new iCloud account and it should "sync" everything on your device with the new iCloud. I'm talking about contacts, calendar, and reminders. Individual app data will probably need to be manually moved somehow.
It should be on the app store today according to this. I am willing to bet the app store hasn't been updated yet. Usually around 4PM EST it gets fully updated.
If you're on iOS and jailbroken, there's an thing that changes your password every hour or day by one number so 0000, next hour, 0001. I think it might be day but I'm not sure. Not sure if it still works, it's been a while since I first heard of it.
Quick Google search found it's called Timepasscode and it Turns Your iOS Passcode Into The Current Time
But then again, I don't know if it's supported still. Worth a shot looking into it for whoever needs a password change constantly.
Ok, I will concede that. However, they have plenty of other services that exclusive. Apple Music and Movies have plenty of exclusive offerings, and Apple killed off Flash before the web was ready to force people to make apps. They also prevent anyone else from accessing Apple Id, Maps, Apple Pay exclusive benefits, iCloud, Contacts, Calendar, and have now locked up HBO GO.
They will lock anyone they can into their platform any chance they get.
So my point still stands.
Edit:
> Apple and Google can't pass laws to hobble the competition.
No, but they can and do enter into exclusive agreements with other companies that prevent anyone else from competing. They also take plenty of other anti-competitive measures. Hell, Apple was just busted for colluding with the book publishers. Together, in the phone business, they are effectively a monopoly and only compete with each other. A 2 party system. How could anybody else possibly compete when between the 2 major players, all the content is locked up in exclusivity agreements. Grooveshark is gone, and Spotify and Pandora only exist bc they came before Google and Apple's offerings. Even with those services, content providers are in a race to see you can bail faster and get exclusive benefits offered by Google and Apple.
It's the best keyboard that you can peck type. It has no swipe, but it's speed and accuracy can't be matched with peck typing.
iOS 9 is going to be a fraction of the size, as will its apps, and Apple has started auto deleting and reinstalling apps furring software updates if you lack the space required.

Hey guys, a couple years ago I released Pandemic 2.5. Now after years of work and many lessons learned I've released Scapefall.
App Advice has a run down on the game with a trailer too.
I hope you guys like the game - but I'm eager for all feedback whether positive or negative. Thanks!

That's why Asus Zenbook UX305 costs half the price of the new single-usb-port Macbook, right? Because apple tax.
Also, Apple DID raise prices just recently in Australia to count for weak AUD - http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/03/apple-raises-iphone-prices-in-australia-around-15-percent - so there's no guarantee same won't happen in Japan as well.
I left Apple when they accused me of being a terrorist or drug dealer for wanting to mod my device to add background images. http://www.wired.com/2009/07/jailbreak/
I left Apple when they told me my iPhone was not powerful enough to handle MMS. http://appadvice.com/appnn/2009/05/why-cant-first-generation-iphones-receive-mms
I left Apple when they disabled my cables: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5383883?start=105&tstart=0
etc.
With a quick google search, I have these results.
Only fifth generation iPod touch can be upated to iOS 7. Is that what it is?
You can try connecting it to a computer. Sometimes iTunes can push an update when the device does not update itself.
