When to Expect iOS 7

Apple's event is currently less than 24 hours away! Can you believe it?

I've gotten to play around with iOS 7 for a while now and am fully confident that Apples new iOS will truly amaze.

How to get ready for iOS 7

Who's ready for iOS 7? I know I sure am. There are a couple steps in getting ready for it all, though!

iCloud has already been (kinda) released (http://www.icloud.com), but you can't really use it unless you have iOS 7 or OSX Lion v. ll.0.5 So that's not very useful. But it's good to make sure that you have an apple id and that you know the password so that you can go ahead and log into iCloud before hand. If you don't already know the features of iCloud, go ahead and head on over to http://www.apple.com/icloud/. If you haven't heard about iOS 7 (which you should already), then go ahead and look at http://www.apple.com/ios/.

Ive Talks About His Passion For iOS 7

For quite some time we have been waiting for the major overhaul of iOS that iOS 7 foreseeably promises. Ever since Scott Forestall was fired from Apple, we knew that day would be coming very soon, and indeed it will certainly be this Fall season. But in our excitement, let`s not forget the mastermind behind all of this great design, Sir Jonathan Ive.

Ive, with his unique eye for design and precision, has rocketed Apple to the forefront of modern technology, and has helped Apple establish its name for design with prominence. In the video below he explains the effort and thought process that he and his team put into iOS 7 and goes further, with his coworkers, to explain and demo the various features of iOS 7. We hope this excites you as much as it does us!

iTunes Radio on iOS 7

Hello guys!!! As you know, recently I attained the new iOS 7 update and have been testing it out for y'all. This article is about the new iTunes Radio, so lets get started!!

 

Along with the new design of music, Apple has also included iTunes Radio with their update of iOS 7. It works sort of like Pandora. You can add stations according to what artist, song, or genre you type in. It allows you to skip 4 songs on each station, add the song to your wish list, and create a new station from the song currently playing. 

They don't include very many commercials, which I'm assuming will change when the full version comes out in the fall. They need to improve the EQs and acoustics for their music, but other than that, GREAT JOB once again Apple!! 

Follow me on Instagram for pictures of the new software!! @technomarshall

FIFA Soccer 2011 -iOS (iPad)

FIFA soccer is about the funnest game I've played yet on my ipad2. It has saved me from boredom on more than one occasion. The game itself is manufactured by EA Games and I think the best EA I've played so far. Well, lets cut to chase...

Sonic Racing -iOS Review

Its finally here : Sonic Racing. We've seen videos swarming all over the Internet about this and it's now currently available for purchase on Apple's App store. I've just bought the game myself and am, overall, pretty pleased at my $2.00 (sale) investment. Although it's not perfect I still enjoy the game very much, especially playing the multi-player function with my brothers, who currently own iPod touches . Well let's cut to the chase.

Cut the Rope

Cut the rope is a very fun and addictive game to play . It is definitely one of my favorites and is insanely intuitive.  The object of the game is to try to get the candy to this cute little creature that they call "OM NOM".  That magically appears on your doorstep .

Modern Combat 2 Review iOS

The Good:

"MC2 BP" is an incredible first person shooter!
The controls feel very natural and are very easy to pick up. There is also this really cool feature that I haven't seen in shooter gaming. and that is gyroscopic aiming, which is basically you aiming using the iPad.
