It’s 2020, and while the skies aren’t full of flying cars like we thought it would be by now, something else straight out of science fiction just got closer to reality: pilotless cargo planes delivering whatever stupid shit you ordered online.
A U.S federal judge has said that a ban on TikTok – scheduled for Monday, September 28 – will not go ahead as planned. The delay will allow users to access the app on various app stores while the court explores the legality of banning a consumer application on security grounds.
iOS updates in the past years haven’t exactly been smooth sailing. In contrast to the earlier days of Apple’s mobile platform, updates have been riddled by bugs right from day one, some of them more serious than others. It seems that even Apple Watches are no longer immune to this predicament as owners of the Apple Watch Series 3 have … Continue reading

One of the new features that Apple introduced to iOS 14 is the ability to change certain default apps, such as your browser and email client. However, that’s pretty much where they stopped, but interesting enough, Facebook is pushing Apple to make further changes where they are hoping that Apple could be convinced to allow default messaging apps to be changed as well.
Obviously Facebook isn’t doing this for the sake of iOS users as the company is apparently hoping that by Apple allowing these changes that users would use Messenger as the default messaging app. Speaking to The Information (paywall), Stan Chudnovsky, a Facebook VP was quoted as saying, “We feel people should be able to choose different messaging apps and the default on their phone. Generally, everything is moving this direction anyway.”
That being said, we have to wonder how feasible this plan really is, or if it is even practical to begin with. This is because when it comes to messaging apps, users have different apps for different purposes. For example, some might choose to use Telegram for work or school, or WhatsApp for family and friends, or WeChat when connecting with people living in China or parts of Asia.
This means that there might not necessarily be a default messaging app to begin with. However, we wouldn’t be surprised if this is a feature Apple could bring to iOS in the future, especially based on what we’re seeing, it appears that Apple is starting to allow for deep customization within iOS.

The other day, Microsoft released its Xbox app for Android. For those unfamiliar, this is different from the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate service where users can stream games from the cloud onto their mobile devices. Instead, this app will stream a game you own from your Xbox console onto your mobile device, acting like a local server of sorts.
So what about iOS gamers? The good news is that it looks like this remote streaming feature will be coming to iOS devices soon in an update to the Xbox app. The update is currently being tested out in TestFlight meaning that it’s pretty much in beta, but once that’s done with, it should be pushed out for everyone to download.
What’s interesting about this is that despite Microsoft previously griping about Apple’s restrictions regarding game streaming, it seems that the company will still comply with Apple’s App Store rules all the same. In case you’re hearing about this for the first time, basically Apple finally relaxed the rules regarding game streaming earlier this month.
However, despite the new rules opening the door for game streaming services like xCloud to come to iOS devices, companies like Microsoft still felt they were a bit restrictive. This is due to the fact that the rules require that all games available on the streaming service will also need to be listed individually on the App Store as a way for Apple to review these games to ensure that they meet the App Store’s requirements.

The original Mass Effect trilogy was one of the more highly-rated RPGs in recent years, with the company’s newer take on the Mass Effect franchise kind of falling flat. If you are wondering what the big deal is regarding the original games, then you might have to wait until 2021 because that’s when Mass Effect: Legendary Edition will launch.
In case you’re unfamiliar, Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is the remastered trilogy of the original Mass Effect games. The remaster was supposed to be released in October, but a report from GamesBeat is claiming that based on people familiar with the development of the game, it has instead been pushed to 2021.
According to their sources, the main holdup behind the delay is because of the first Mass Effect game. It seems that in terms of quality, it simply isn’t holding up quite as well compared to the other two titles, meaning that it would not only make bad first impression for new gamers, but it could also be a disappointing release for fans who had already played it and were hoping for a fresh take on the title.
That being said, it is unclear when exactly in 2021 will the title be released, except that it will apparently be in the “early” part of the year, so it looks like we’ll just have to wait and see for ourselves.
Mass Effect: Legendary Edition Might Only Arrive In 2021
