Siri Hacked, Plays Nice With 3rd Party Apps

Posted in: Today's Chili

It seems that Apple’s Siri has been hacked, and in this particular hack, it would enable Siri to function with the likes of Spotify, Instagram as well as different third-party apps. Not only that, you need not worry about voiding your iPhone since installation can be performed in a jiffy without having to go through the jailbreaking process. How is this made possible? You will have to turn your attention to the PennApps Spring 2014 hackathon, which happens to be the largest university hackathon. One of the major triumphs of this hackathon would be an exciting Siri hack known as GoogolPlex that enables iPhone users to control third-party applications using Siri without having to perform a jailbreak.

    Siri Could Be Opened Up To Third Party Developers

    Apple is known for keeping its cards close to its chest. We’re not just talking about its future product plans, unlike Google which awards app developers with more freedom, Apple likes to keep a firm grip on what developers can and can not make their apps do. Ever since it was first launched, the virtual private assistant Siri has been kept out of developers’ reach. Though its possible that Apple might be working to open it up in the future, and focus its entry into this particular arena entirely on mobile search and app integration.

    Apple A8 Processor Reportedly Enters Production

    Apple is yet to release a new mobile device in this year, and its expected that this isn’t going to happen at least until the second half of the year. That’s because usually Apple launches new mobile devices in the last few months of the year, as evidently seen in 2013 with the launch of new iPads and iPhones. 2014′s crop of Apple mobile devices is expected to come with a whole new processor, the A8, which is apparently going to be mass produced by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. Rumors coming out of Taiwan suggest that TSMC has already started production.

    Analyst Thinks iPhone 5c Is A Flop Because Of iPhone Cases

    Posted in: Today's Chili

    Analyst Thinks iPhone 5c Is A Flop Because Of iPhone CasesThe iPhone 5c is probably one of Apple’s iPhones that isn’t doing as hot as it should. But why not? After all it is cheaper than the iPhone 5s, shouldn’t that be a reason why customers pick it over its more expensive sibling?

    Well according to our previous report, former Apple ad exec thinks otherwise. He thinks that due to the price difference being only $100, customers would rather pay that difference for a newer and more powerful phone.
