App Review: Eat It!

Debra — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 18:56:35 +0000

Created by Dragon Team Interactive, Eat it! is an insanely simple game which features cute characters and equally matching charming music.

The concept is pretty straightforward and easy to pick up. You must feed lions or monkeys, the appropriate food they need. The lions will be eating meat and the monkeys will be eating fruit. That’s basically the game in a nutshell… Read More

How Good the Mac App Store Could Be

Debra — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 18:56:33 +0000

Now that Apple has announced a desktop version of the App Store, there is much speculation on what we are actually getting. There are already quite a few OS X software marketplaces out there, though none are as polished as the iPhone’s App Store.

If Apple is smart, they will likely add the Mac App Store as a way to run universal apps and release an iOS runtime platform for the desktop. Just think about it for a minute.

There isn’t much unification between doing tasks on an iPhone and a Mac simultaneously, save for the apps that sync with their desktop counterparts. Here are some predictions I have about benefits of supporting universal apps on Macs.

GV Extension Adds Native Google Voice SMS Functionality to the iPhone

Now that Google Voice is back on the iPhone (natively), many of us are using the app to send SMS messages. Still, since there is no real way to set an app as a default SMS handler, we found ourselves using both the SMS app and whichever GV app we found most useful.

No more! There’s a new tweak in Cydia that merges the two. SMS GV Extension sets your Google Voice account as the default handler of text messages. Now when you send or receive text messages, it will be exclusively handled through the Google Voice API, and not your text messaging plan through your carrier.

For some of you, this is awesome. But there is a huge limitation with this solution… Read More

Can’t Quit Apps with the Home Button? This Might Be Why.

Everything was pretty smooth for a while on my 4.1 jailbroken device, but then it happened. I tapped the Home button to quit an app and nothing happened. I double tapped it, and the switcher popped up. Another double tap and it retreated. Another single tap, but my open app stayed open.

If this happened to you, most likely the problem is with the latest version of Notified Pro. I did some research, and uninstalled Notified Pro via Cydia. After a reboot, the problem was gone. Just in case, I re-installed it. Within half an hour, the problem was back, and I couldn’t quit apps without using the SBSettings Close Button.

I removed Notified Pro again, and problem solved. If you can’t live without Notified Pro, check this out. Hope this helps some of you out there. Anyone else experience the same issue?

This Jailbreak App Let’s You Easily Decline Phone Calls

EZDecline is a new jailbreak app that let’s you easily decline phone calls. If your phone is locked and you receive a phone call, the only thing that will show on your screen is the “Slide to Answer” option. EZDecline tweaks that a bit by adding the buttons to “Decline” or “Answer”.

Priced at $0.99, I don’t find this mod much useful because this feature is already available under a different form on your iPhone… Read More
