Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Although jailbroken iPhones aren’t as popular as they used to be since the introduction of the App Store by Apple, a resurge in jailbroken apps may occur due to a new application released on the Cydia package manager: Clippy. The app brings probably the most wanted functionality to the iPhone that has been unavailable since its original release: copy and paste.
Although common on many other mobile phones, Apple, for some reason, decided not to include the incredibly useful and needed feature in the iPhone. Thankfully, third party developers have been working on a solution, and came up with Clippy. Yes, your iPhone does need to be jailbroken to use Clippy, but for many, it might just be worth it. Select text, hit the “123” button on the keyboard, and then hit copy. Repeat and hit “paste” to paste the text elsewhere. Users say Clippy isn’t perfect; in fact it has many flaws. It tends to not copy over a line of text, and it will only copy certain text and paste it into certain places. The software is buggy, but this thankfully leaves room for improvement. Try it out and see how you like it. Hopefully, Apple will bring its own copy and paste functionality to the iPhone soon.
