While Google has shown some effort at combating malware for Android devices, the numbers do not lie as it has been recently found that about 79% of malware targets Android devices, while malware for iOS sits at a lowly 0.7%. This is not to say that iOS is the perfect system, it’s just the way Apple and Google have setup their respective ecosystems, but it seems that despite these numbers, Google chairman, Eric Schmidt, seems to believe that the Android operating system is more secure than the iPhone. When told that Android has notorious security problems, Schmidt was quoted as saying, “Not secure? It’s more secure than the iPhone,” which reportedly drew some laughs from the audience. (more…)

When the redesigned iPhone 5s home button flex cable first appeared with a slightly different configuration from the cable for the iPhone 5, it was suggested to have been to make way for Touch ID.

A few weeks ago I was talking to someone who had said what a pain it was to manage their iPhone and iPad photos in bulk. They told me that there were about 20 pictures they took that didn’t turn out well, and in order to remove them from their phone they had to go through and delete them one-by-one. Ouch! I could see how that would be frustrating, but there is a much simpler way that not many people seem to know about. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap the arrow in the upper-right corner of the screen.
   
3. Most people I’ve talked to realize you can select multiple photos by tapping on them individually from this screen, but the cool thing is that you can tap and hold on the first photo you want to select and then slide your fingers across all of the photos you want to share/copy/delete. Unfortunately the screen won’t scroll as your finger reaches an edge, but this trick should still ease the process of selecting a lot of photos.
   
4. Tap the Share, Copy, or Delete button depending on which operation you want to do.

Note: You can repeat Step 3 to deselect items you didn’t mean to select.

So the key things you need to remember once you enter the selection screen is to tap, hold, and slide. From there you can send the photos through Email or MMS (limited to 5 photos at a time), copy them to the clipboard, print them, or delete them from your iOS device.
