Facebook enables auto playing News Feed videos in iOS app
The new feature is something that could easily annoy many users. However, Facebook was smart enough to mute audio in the auto-playing videos by default. In order to hear the audio the user must still tap on the playing video. It also makes it more likely that people might actually stop and watch that video clip of your dancing dog instead of scrolling right past it.
The auto-playing feature comes at a time when other social networks are seeing a lot of people upload video clips to share with their friends (or the world, in the case of Twitters Vine) and this move by Facebook is in no doubt part of a plan to engage more users with videos on their site. It also opens the door for auto-playing video ads, however.
For those worried about using up their precious cellular data, Facebook was nice enough to add an "Auto-play on WiFi only" setting in the Settings app in iOS. This way, videos in your News Feed wont auto-play while you are on 3G or 4G.

Its the little things What we like and dont like in iOS 7
Now that we’ve been living with iOS 7 for a while, we’ve had a chance to uncover some little things we might not have noticed at first.
Some of those little things are good, others not so much. Here’s our list. What about yours? Let us know in the comments below.
What we like
Wayfinding and leveling with Compass: In iOS 7, Compass received a thorough revamp, gaining a couple of cool new features. One my favorites: Say you’re trying to find your way in a specific direction. Just orient yourself in that direction, and then tap the compass. Now, when you start to stray from the direction you specified, a red bar on screen indicates just how far off course you are. My other favorite: If you swipe to the left on the compass, you bring up the new level, which works when you place the phone flat on a surface or set it on its side.—Dan Moren

| The iTunes Store wish list. |
Wish List in the iTunes Store: I’ve used the Wish List in iTunes on my Mac for years to keep track of music I want to buy someday. I was never able to access that list from my iPhone—until iOS 7 came along. Now, I can tap the list icon at the top right of the screen in the iTunes Store app to get access to my Wish List. (There’s also a list of tracks I’ve previewed or played in iTunes Radio.) Coincidentally, my Wish List is also more accessible now on my Mac, too, thanks to iTunes 11.1: For example, when I like a track in iTunes Radio, I can add it to the list with one click on a contextual menu.—Dan Miller
Specifying short names in Mail, Messages: The new Short Name feature, which you can find by going toSettings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Contacts, lets you customize how contact names display in Mail and Messages, when real estate is at a premium. If you activate it, you can opt to show first name and last initial, first initial and last name, or first or last name only. Moreover, you can ask iOS to show nicknames to shorten things even more, so you see ‘Dan’ instead of ‘Daniel’, for instance.—Dan Moren
 |
| Timestamps in Messages. |
Reminders geofence perimeter: The geofencing capabilities of Reminders are handy when you need a location-based reminder. But if you’ve ever wished for more fine-grained control over when your phone believes you’ve arrived at your Home or Work location, iOS 7 can help. When you select a location, you’ll now see a small map, with a blue circle around the location’s address. By tapping and dragging on the black handle of that circle, you can expand or contract the area in which your reminder will fire. So if you want to remember to call someone when you’re a couple of miles from home, Reminders is your new best friend.—Dan Moren
 |
| Shared links in Safari. |
Timer on the home screen: You probably know that you can set a timer using Siri—it’s even more efficient than using the timer shortcut in Control Center. But when you want to check on that timer, the easiest thing to do, by far, is simply to wake up your iPhone. You’ll see the current timer, counting down, on the lock screen, right beneath the clock. Even better, when the timer is done, you can silence it from the lock screen, with just a tap.—Dan Moren
More info in Weather: The Weather app now includes sunset and sunrise times, as well as the basic high and low temps. Just side-scroll on the hourly forecast section, and it’ll include the time the sun is coming up or going down—handy whether you’re trying to plan a morning run or you’re a vampire concerned about curfew.—Scholle Sawyer McFarland
Swipe right to go back: In most stock iOS apps, as well as many apps that have been updated to support iOS 7, the familiar Back arrow in the upper-left corner of the screen is gone. You now navigate to the previous view (whatever that was) by swiping to the right from the left edge of the screen. I initially disliked this approach, because it wasn’t obvious and I didn’t know exactly where that gesture would get me. (The arrow would always include the name of the previous screen or section.) But after using iOS 7 for a while, I have to say the swipe-back gesture has grown on me. In fact, I’ve gotten so used to it that when I encounter an app that hasn’t been updated to use the gesture, I find my self swiping right, over and over again, wondering why nothing is happening.—Dan Frakes
What bugs us
Control Center’s tricky target: Although I like the new Control Center, I wish it were easier to summon. Yes, it sounds simple: Just swipe upward from the bottom of the screen. But in my experience, it takes a few swipes before Control Center actually appears. Perhaps I’ll acquire the touch over time, but for now I find it really frustrating (especially, for some reason, on the iPad mini).—Christopher Breen
Wasted space in home-screen folders: In iOS 6, folders on the home screen could display up to 20 apps at a time on the iPad, and 16 at a time on the iPhone 5 and the most recent iPod touch. In iOS 7, you see only nine apps at a time. Granted, you can now put many more items in a folder and then swipe to navigate among multiple folder screens. But the nine-apps-at-a-time limit—which appears to have been implemented solely for aesthetic reasons, so folders can zoom out and in gracefully—feels like it’s wasting a lot of useful space. Worse, it forces you to perform more taps and swipes to access a given app.—Dan Frakes, Armando Rodriguez
Email groups in Mail: While iOS Mail has improved steadily with each major update to iOS, it still doesn’t support sending to email groups. And the iOS Contacts app still doesn’t let you create such groups. You can, of course, create contact groups in OS X’s Contacts app. But those groups don’t function the same way in iOS as they do in OS X. I can’t, for example, send an email to the ‘Macworld Editors’ group on my iPhone—the group doesn’t even show up. And, while I’m at it: When filing email, Mail no longer remembers your last-used position in the mailbox list; you have to scroll from the top each time. And although it’s great that you can now search all mailboxes from within Mail, iOS 7 has eliminated the option to search only, say, message subjects or senders.—Dan Frakes
Less accessible media controls: In iOS 6, you could always bring up the media-control buttons from the lock screen—even if you weren’t currently playing media—by double-pressing the Home button. That made it easy to resume listening to your most recently listened-to track. In iOS 7, if you disable Control Center on the lock screen (which is better for security), you can’t initiate media playback without unlocking your phone and opening whatever music-playing app you usually use; the media controls appear on the lock screen only if you’re already listening to something.—Dan Frakes
That tiny blue new-app indicator: The little blue badge that iOS 7 puts next to new or newly updated apps is really hard to make out, especially if you’re using a lighter-colored background. It isn’t as prominent as the old ‘New’ banner we had in iOS 6, so figuring out if you’ve used an app since you downloaded it is harder.—Armando Rodriguez
Folders versus bookmarks in Safari: In the past, telling the difference between folders and bookmarks in iOS Safari’s bookmarks list was really easy. But now, owing to the “simplification” of iOS 7’s visual language, each of them has a similar blue outline; you have to squinch up your eyes to tell the difference. The problem is particularly annoying on an iPad mini.—Christopher Breen
A less powerful Spotlight: iOS 7 makes Spotlight easier to access, but it also makes the feature less useful. You can now search for files only locally, whereas before you could also use Spotlight to quickly search Google or Wikipedia. I can understand Apple’s wanting us to rely on Siri for quick Web searches, but the virtual assistant is less reliable, and sometimes I don’t feel like dictating everything I’m searching for.—Armando Rodriguez

Apples iWatch Said to Arrive in Separate 1 7 and 1 3 Inch Display Sizes for Men and Women
Samsungs Galaxy Gear smart watch
According to the Korea Herald (via Unwired View), Hsieh offered a few additional details on Apples plans at a conference today, noting that the company will be using the two sizes to offer watches targeting men with a larger 1.7-inch display and women with a smaller 1.3-inch option.
Apple’s wearable iWatch is expected to come with a 1.7-inch OLED display for men’s watches and a 1.3-inch OLED screen for women, David Hsieh, DisplaySearch’s Vice President of the Greater China Market, said at a conference today in Taiwan, citing Apple sources. [...]
It is yet to be confirmed whether the displays will be flexible but sources said it was a possibility, since Apple will want to upstage Samsung’s Galaxy Gear.
Separate from Hsiehs comments, the report claims that Apple could introduce the iWatch as soon as late this year, but that appears to be extremely unlikely given that it is already mid-November and that recent rumors have pointed to a late 2014 timeframe for launch.
Just days ago, fellow NPD DisplaySearch analyst Paul Gagnon noted that Apple appears to have put its major television product plans on hold for the time being in order to focus on wearables such as the iWatch. Apples ambitious TV plans have reportedly been stymied by difficult negotiations with content providers, with the company feeling that it needs to have the content side in place before being able to offer something more substantial than the current Apple TV box on the hardware side.

User Interface Modifications in iOS 8 Beta 5
Apple has released the fifth beta of iOS 8 to developers, like previous betas, the new update also includes a number of improvements, tweaks, and bug fixes, to make iOS 8 feel faster and more polished.
The first introduced of iOS 8 was on June 2 at the Worldwide Developers Conference. Apple added a range of new features to iOS 8 like the integration with OS X through Continuity, Family Sharing features, and new apps like a Health and a Tips app, as well as nice improvements to some existing apps like Messages, Safari and Photos app.
iOS 8 beta 5 as has been mentioned includes within it several minor interface modifications, the list below shows these changes.
Health: Apples Health app now collects Spirometry data, according to the iOS 8 beta 5 release notes. Spirometry tests measure lung function, tracking the volume and flow of air when inhaling and exhaling. The app has also received several changes in this update, a new option to export Health data, a "Show When Logged" option to display Medical ID on the lock screen, and new Health panel in Privacy settings.
via 9to5Mac
iCloud: iCloud Drive, Backup, and Keychain have new icons in the iCloud section of the Settings app.
Probably less than two months separate us from the public release of iOS 8, but likely well see other bata updates, that bring minor performance boosts and changes.

Rumor iWatch Facing Some Challenges in Manufacturing
Seemingly the wearable device from Apple "iWatch" that was expected to release in 2014 it will be delayed, that for technical issues outside of the will.
The report from Digitimes claims that one of those issues involves surface finish treatments for the body of the device, with both Apples iWatch and Qualcomms Toq "Android smart watch" searching for ways to improve the look of chassis parts made using metal injection molding (MIM) methods.
Several wearable devices such as Apples iWatch and Qualcomms Toq are reportedly seeing less than 50% yield rates due to difficulties applying surface treatments on their metal injection molded (MIM) chassis, according to sources from the upstream supply chain.
[...]
MIM-made components used to be used inside products, but as the components are now becoming part of the external design, surface treatments have become an important process for the look of products.
Since clients have high demand over quality, and also need high volumes of supply, most component makers are having difficulties satisfying both of requirements.In addition to Apple and Qualcomm, Sony, Samsung Electronics, Pebble, Casio, Nike, Adidas, Epson, and LG are also preparing to launch new wearable devices in 2014.

Googles Project Tango Empowering Your Views in 3D
Has anyone ever thought about a 3D smartphone, Google has been working on it since last year, aiming to provide a broader awareness of all the visible objects in natural environment.
"Google Project Tango": The Most Advanced Technology Project by Google
Currently "Project Tango" aims to provide mobile devices "a human-scale understanding of space & motion", according to Johnny Lee, project lead at Googles Advanced Technology and Projects group. Lee and his project team also wrote, "Yet, our mobile devices assume that physical world ends at the boundaries of the screen.".
This 3D technology can help people in endless ways. Users can use this technology just wailking around their house to get the 3D dimensions of a furniture before buying it, or to locate the place where a particular object is showcased in a store, and it can even help visually-impaired person to navigate in an area which is unknown to him.
Weve arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. - Carl Sagan
Currently the "Project Tango" includes a prototype model having 5" size with Android, combined robotics and vision technology to track 3D motions of the phone while developing a 3-D model of the targeted place. The company is also seeking professional developers to distribute their already arranged 200 development kits by March 14, 2014.
Google has been involved with various universities and research labs in 9 countries to develop this platform, including university of Minnesota, German Tech firm Bosch, Gearge Washington Universityand Open Source Robotics Foundation.
This advanced platform is described as ultra-low power, high-performance delivering architecture of advance computional chips enabling the device to "intelligently distinguish and contextualize the surroundings".

AT T Launching Wi Fi Calling In 2015 Despite T Mobile’s Big Revival
Following T-Mobile’s latest UnCarrier event which focused on the reintroduction of its Wi-Fi service under the Personal CellSpot brand, this week during the Goldman Sachs Communacopia Conference, AT&T CEO of Mobility and Business Solutions Ralph de la Vega confirmed that the carrier would launch a Wi-Fi Calling service next year, but declined to detail specifics on how the service would work.
That AT&T is launching Wi-Fi Calling as a supplement to its existing service underscores the main difference in the approach to Wi-Fi calling that the carriers are adopting. T-Mobile is reviving Wi-Fi calling in order to fend off complaints about the lack of indoor coverage that has become a common complaint with the rush of new customers being added every quarter, while AT&T is treating Wi-Fi Calling as an ancillary service that can help a minority of its customers, such as those that lack service inside buildings or in fringe coverage areas, while still relying on the strength of its current network for voice and messaging.
With Apple announcing native support for Wi-Fi Calling in iOS 8 back during WWDC, carriers are now seriously considering their options in terms of Wi-Fi Calling functionality and availability. Sprint is currently offering its own implementation of Wi-Fi Calling that relies on specific Android handsets and firmware updates, but the rollout has been hampered by the limitations of its chosen implementation, which requires customized firmware updates with a dedicated pass-through app, unlike T-Mobile’s firmware-only implementation that works across all branded devices purchased by the carrier for sale to the public, which now includes the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
De la Vega also stressed that the service would not roll out until AT&T was satisfied with the performance of the service in terms of handoff quality from Wi-Fi to cellular, which has been a sticking point with such services in the past, as evidenced by the performance of T-Mobile’s HotSpot@Home service, which struggled with handoffs from Wi-Fi to its older GSM/EDGE and nascent 3G network before it was discontinued in 2010 due to those longstanding issues.

‘Metal Samsung Galaxy Alpha in full regalia seen on pictures’ – NU nl
The device according SamMobile launched on 13 August. Previously named the usually reliable rumors site today as launch date.
The black variant of the Galaxy Alpha showed. Already on photos Pictures of the white version showing the device from all sides. Include the metal edge that runs all the way around the unit is so good to see you.720p screen
The Galaxy Alpha would get a 4.8-inch display with 720p resolution, a pixel density of around 385 ppi would yield. The processor would octacore Exynos 5433 is a chip that is rumored would come. In a version of the Galaxy Note 4
In addition, the unit would receive 2 GB RAM and a 13 megapixel camera. Like the Galaxy S5, the phone would have a fingerprint scanner and heart rate. Unlike many other Samsung phones built-in storage memory of the Galaxy Alpha would not be extendable.
Yet plastic
In the leaked photos is to see that the back of the Galaxy Alpha removing apparently, just like virtually all current Samsung smartphones. That would allow the replacement of the battery, a feature that supports fewer smartphone makers. It is not clear whether the back is made of metal or plastic with leather-look, as some recent Samsung phones.
Around the launch of the Galaxy S5 were also many rumors about the Galaxy F , an alleged high-end Samsung smartphone with full metal body. Those rumors have died down recentlyThe Galaxy Alpha would have to compete with the iPhone 6 who would get a similar screen size of 4.7 inches

60 000 Redmi 1S Phones Go Out of Stock in 13 9 Seconds Says Xiaomi
60,000 units of Xiaomis Redmi 1S available in the fifth flash sale via Flipkart on Tuesday went out of stock in 13.9 seconds.
The news was announced by @MiIndiaOfficial on Twitter, adding that users should stay tuned for "something special next week."
Notably, the fourth flash sale saw 60,000 Redmi 1S units going out of stock in 5.2 seconds. The budget smartphone went out of stock in just 3.4 seconds in the third flash sale, a good second faster than the second flash sale, which saw 40,000 smartphones go out of stock in 4.5 seconds, meanwhile the first flash sale saw 40,000 units going out of stock in just 4.2 seconds.
As of now, Flipkart has cumulatively seen 240,000 Redmi 1S units going out of stock in 31.2 seconds in its five flash sales thus far, according to the details revealed by Xiaomi.
This was the second flash sale that saw up to 60,000 Redmi 1S units going on sale, an increase of 20,000 units compared to previous occasions which saw 40,000 being made available. The sale once again saw both happy and unhappy customers, as evinced by the tweet replies to @MiIndiaOfficials announcement.
Flipkart has updated its Xiaomi page to say the next Redmi 1S sale is on October 14, and that registration will begin from Tuesday at 6pm IST. This ties in with Xiaomis "something special" announcement for next week, indicating the Chinese handset manufacturer will bring the Mi 3 back on sale - as it had announced earlier this month.
The Flipkart page suggests consumers to register for each flash sale separately and notes, "Registrations will not be carried over. You need to register again for next sale."
Considering that limited stocks of the Redmi 1S will be available in India, the popular e-commerce giant has revealed that it will limit orders to one phone per registered email ID per sale.
Xiaomi is also bundling a Micro SIM-card adapter and a screen protector with the Redmi 1S, and notes that orders will be delivered in 7-10 business days.
Its worth pointing out that Flipkarts procedure requires people to just add the handset to their cart for it to be classified as sold out, and people are given additional time to complete their purchase.
Recently, speaking at a conference, the companys India head Manu Jain confirmed that it would be bringing the Mi 3 back on sale in India at least one more time. Jain did not give too many details, but he did suggest that the Mi 3 flash sale will take place around Diwali.

Apple to make its iWatch in collaboration with Nike
According to sources close to Apple that got in touch with Techmaniacs.gr the Apple smartwatch (dubbed iWatch) may be conceived in collaboration with long-time fitness band maker Nike.
Apple has a long relationship with Nike involving fitness tracking accessories and iPhones have carried the Nike+ app out of box before. According to said sources Apple and Nike will be making the iWatch with focus on tracking more than just fitness but also the user’s constant movement.
Nike recently fired the majority of the team working on its FuelBand product and will likely stop making it. In light of this the company is said to focus it’s fitness-tracking efforts into software, thinking of ways to expand its Nike+ suite and releasing a public API for developers. Apple is reportedly aiming to incorporate that same API into its iWatch for which the company allegedly recently secured the trademark through another firm. Furthermore Apple’s CEO Tim Cook has been seen wearing Nike’s FuelBand and has being sitting on Nike’s board for almost a decade now – strong corporate ties that add credibility to the rumors.
But Apple’s smartband device will do more than just follow your fitness routines. According to the sources it will be able to make electronic payments using an iBeacon technology (see this for reference) or possibly the AirDrop Wi-Fi-enabled sharing method introduced with iOS 7. Additionally the smartwatch will be able to use Apple services like CarPlay.
The iWatch is expected to arrive in Q3 of this year. As for the rumor that it will be made by LG exclusivelywe’re not sure. Perhaps Nike will be just a software partner, perhaps something more. Another theory could be that Apple will release a smartwatch and smartband, similarly to competitors like Samsung.
Thanks for the tip!
