, Jun 17th 2013 Discuss [1]

If you played XCOM: Enemy Unknown earlier this year on your high-powered gaming PC, you may have noticed the user interface and the top-to-bottom playability to seem a bit more expansive than a simple desktop setup would suggest.

, Jun 14th 2013 Discuss [3]

As the iOS 7 user interface was revealed this month, users made quick assumptions about what the next-generation software would look like on the tablets of the Apple mobile family. As the software was, at first, only shown on the iPhone 5 during Apple's developers conference WWDC 2013, it became rather quickly an often, asked question: what would iOS 7 look like on devices Apple guaranteed would be attaching it to? Today, Apple answered this question. Read The Full Story

WWDC 2013 software wrap-up: iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks lead the way

, Jun 10th 2013 Discuss [2]

This year’s WWDC keynote revealed both the next generation in Apple’s mobile operating system and their change of name re-track of their desktop-based OS X. With iOS 7, Jony Ive’s look and feel are rather apparent with a top-to-bottom adjustment to the operating system along with some pointed connections to the desktop side of things. Apple’s update to OS X, on the other hand, sees a slightly less drastic adjustment happening: and no, that’s not OS X Sea Lion, it’s more of a wave sort of situation.

While iOS 7 wont be available for the public until later this fall, Apple has made it clear that the system will be delivered to developers starting today. This is good news for those developers in the audience that aim to develop for this generation and future generations of Apple mobile devices, especially since it's clear that this wont be the last generation of Apple mobile device hardware updates.

WWDC 2013 iOS 7: “polarizing” features coming up

, Jun 9th 2013 Discuss [3]

Last year at around this time, it wasn't exactly clear what Apple would be revealing inside iOS 6. It wasn't exactly a secret, either. Here on the eve of WWDC 2013, Apple has created a bit of an information vacuum surrounding their next-generation mobile operating system. Read The Full Story

WWDC 2013 iOS 7 expectations: 8 features we’ll be waiting for

, Jun 9th 2013 Discuss [31]

WWDC is coming up quick, folks. On Monday, we’d like to think that Apple will be announcing some new products, including some new MacBooks, a possible iRadio announcement, and maybe a Mac Pro refresh. However, something we’re almost certain about is an iOS 7 unveil, thanks to getting a peek at the banners at Moscone West before WWDC kicks off. I’ve spent a lot of time with iOS, and while I mostly love the user interface, design, and apps, there are several features that are downright annoying that Apple needs to fix in iOS 7.

WWDC 2013: what you WON’T be seeing

, Jun 7th 2013 Discuss [2]

Starting Monday, Apple’s 2013 iteration of their developers convention WWDC begins in San Francisco – and there’s a lot you’ll not be seeing. It’s not that there’ll be a lot of information under the skin and behind closed doors, that’s not what this is all about. Instead, it’s all about what’s still in the wings at Apple, what’s not quite ready to be released, and what will never, ever be released, especially not next week.

iOS 7 gets flat with Apple banner at WWDC [UPDATE: OS X]

, Jun 7th 2013 Discuss [3]

Just days away from the start of the multi-day event, Apple has begun to decorate the Moscone Center West in San Francisco for its yearly developers conference WWDC. This year's first banner appears to bring iOS 7 to the mix with a clear and present - and massive - number 7 in rainbow-colored font. Though it's difficult to tell at the moment with so little to go on, this may be indicative of a "flattening" going on in the aesthetic presentation of the mobile software. Read The Full Story

Apple iRadio iAd details surface as WWDC nears

, Jun 5th 2013 Discuss [0]

While the yearly developer conference hosted by Apple looms, a note on one of the perhaps several new services Apple aims to unveil has appeared: iAds in iRadio. Apple's work with music has been growing since they first introduced iTunes in 2001 - here 12 years later, it may be time to integrate a free radio service along with the music file purchase and streaming services Apple offers already. Who would have thought it would be the advertisements that may run inside it that would unveil such a service early? Read The Full Story
