Facebook iOS Photo App To Take Instagram On?
iOS users should be more than familiar with the Instagram app, even if they don’t use it they should be seeing posts by friends and family on their newsfeed, uploading photos to Instagram and sharing it on Facebook. I guess one of the appeals of Instagram is that it’s an external website much like Flickr so unlike Facebook, depending on your privacy settings, everyone can view your photos, and at the same time thanks to its integration with Facebook, let’s you publish your uploads to your friends’ newsfeed.
It seems that Facebook has been quietly working on something similar, there has been no announcements or fanfare but thanks to a leak there have been several photos of the app in action floating around the web. So what this app does is it brings the features of Instagram and Picplz (for Android) into one application and at the same time allows for geotagging and people tagging.
We’re going to guess that this will be integrated into Facebook itself but whether or not it will be a standalone app or part of the Facebook app remains uncertain. It is also unclear whether the photos taken with the app will be viewable by public or only for those you allow on Facebook. I wonder how Instagram and Picplz will be taking this news.
Now here’s an iPhone 6S case that will certainly turn heads, especially when you take into consideration its name which is known as the OnePlus iPhone 6S case. That’s rather weird, don’t you think so? It will certainly take some getting used to before the name rolls off your tongue naturally. Well, we do know that The OnePlus iPhone 6S case can now be purchased for $19.99 a pop, and no, you do not need any kind of invite before you can snag one for yourself.
Each purchase will also be accompanied by an invitation to purchase a OnePlus X, just in case, you know, you would like to tread the Android waters. All in all, it comes in the kind of material as found on the OnePlus One and OnePlus X, which makes it a whole lot harder to lose grip of when you hold it – which is good!
If you are on the lookout for either the iPhone 6S or the iPhone 6S Plus, then here is news for you – chances are pretty high that you can pick up either one, or perhaps even both if you are feeling fat in the pocket, this coming September 18th. First of all, there was a leaked internal memo from Vodafone alongside Japanese site ITHome and German tech experts Macerkopf claiming that the new iPhones 6S models will roll out this coming September 18th in their respective countries
With Japan, Germany and the UK being tier one Apple launch countries, this means that those living in the mentioned countries will receive the iPhones at the same time as folks living over in the US – traditionally speaking, of course. There really isn’t that much time left to wait, as it is less than a month away, and I am quite sure that the time will pass by sooner than you think.
It looks like the folks over at Digitimes have come up with their own interpretation of things to come – that there will be no iPad Air 3 released, at least for this year. Digitimes has had their fair share of hits and misses in the past, so it would be best to take this rumor concerning the non-release of the iPad Air 3 in 2015 with a pinch of salt.
Digitimes also laid claim that the iPad mini 4 will not be as supercharged as some of the rumors that had been going around, as it will bring with it only small and incremental upgrades when compared to its predecessor, the iPad mini 3. This does not seem to bode well for fans of the compact tablet, taking into consideration how the iPad mini 3 itself was improved over its predecessor with a new Touch ID fingerprint reader.
Since Apple tends to roll out a new iPad in October, we will just have to sit tight and see whether this particular rumor has enough “legs” to run.
