You might not know it, but the iPhone 5s has already gone on sale in China and subsequently sold out – every single size and color. This doesn’t mean that places like Japan or the United States should worry, as there is separate stock for each different region, but it just goes to show: the […]

How to Prep Your iDevice for iOS 7
Posted in: Today's ChiliWith iOS 7 arriving tomorrow, Apple is extending some love to the owners of older iOS devices that have been left behind. New compatibility features, first spotted on Reddit, will now kick into action if you attempt to download an app that is not supported by your current firmware. Instead, the company now asks if you’d like to install the last compatible version, which, for some apps, can be over a year old. We’ve successfully installed an older version of Instagram to an iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.3.3 and Twitter to an iPhone 3G running iOS 4.2.1. Although Instagram was “out of date,” the last compatible version of Twitter (featured above) was version 4.3.2, and hit the App Store back on August 18th, 2012. If you’re feeling nostalgic and you’ve got an aging iPhone, iPad or iPod touch that could use a bit of exercise, Apple’s latest tweak might teach your old device some new tricks.

iOS 7 is expected to be made available on a wide variety of iOS devices come 18th of September, but it seems that Apple has a couple of updates that they could have planned for release in the future. This is according to the folks at 9to5Mac who have spotted on their server logs, visits from iOS devices coming from Apple’s headquarters in California that are running on a trio of different iOS versions. These versions include iOS 7.0.1, 7.0.2, and 7.1. It is unclear when these updates are planned for release, but presumably they are undergoing testing at the moment.
Based on the different versions, it has been suggested that iOS 7.0.1 and iOS 7.0.2 have been designed to be successive updates that will mainly address bug fixes, and that iOS 7.1, based on its version number, will be a more substantial update and possibly introduce new features, functions, or support for hardware. In any case with iOS 7 having yet to be released, we’re not sure what sort of bugs Apple plans to squash in the future updates, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled nonetheless.

As of the 18th of September, iOS 7 will be out in the wild, and with it the final (or first, however you like to see it) full version of Siri. Up until now Siri has been labeled with a “Beta” tag by Apple for all of the devices that’ve used it – iPhone 4S, […]
Things are going to change once iOS 7 hits your iPhone next week. Doesn’t matter if you’re buying the new iPhone 5C or 5S or not, all those icons you’ve gotten used to will morph into brighter, flatter and larger versions of what you know. Best part about this GIF though? Scott Forstall’s creepy smile morphing into Jony Ive’s stone cold staredown. YOU WILL LIKE IOS 7. [GadgetLove]
