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.
AppleInsider is reporting about some patents that Apple filed for in the not too distant past. The patents detail some improvements that may be included in a future iPhone firmware update to improve the notification display on the unlock screen.
Right now, the iPhone will display things like SMS, missed calls, voicemail and appointment notifications on the unlock screen. But Apple is looking to improve the formatting and usefulness of this screen. The patent includes email, and I can imagine this including other notifications when Apple lets developers start using the push service they’ve been talking about, like AIM or Facebook messages.
I’m pretty excited to see this make its way to my iPhone, especially if Apple takes it the direction that seems obvious. Let developers access this screen with the push service notifications. So when you turn off your phone and get a message on AIM, all you have to do is hit the home button on your iPhone and there you have the message.
