New Poll – Do you let your kids play with your iPhone or iPod Touch?

April 6, 2009 by Brooke

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Do you disable the keyboard auto-correction on your iPhone and/or iPod Touch? Below are the results based on when we added the poll about a week and a half ago.

* Yes (34.0%, 428 Votes)
* No (55.0%, 678 Votes)
* You can do that? (9.0%, 116 Votes)
* I will now! (2.0%, 22 Votes)
Total Voters: 1,244

I do not disable my auto-correction though, I have thought about it many times!!! It drives me crazy how many times it auto-corrects the wrong word but, I love when it does auto-correct a word correctly…

Cydia Queue – Queue Apps in Cydia

April 4, 2009 by Brooke

Ok, I’m not sure how long this has been there but, I just noticed that Cydia has a Queue feature! Yesterday, I was installing an application and I decided to Cancel it instead of Confirm it (which I rarely do)…that is when I noticed the pop-up had the options to Continue Queuing or Cancel and Clear. I was like, WHAT…when did Cydia get a queue!!! So, I thought I would check it out! Here is how it works.

When you select Install on an application, you get the next screen in which you can Confirm or Cancel the install. If you select Cancel, you are given the option to queue it or to cancel the install. If you select Continue Queuing, it will keep that app in a “Queue.” You are then able to add more applications to the queue by selecting them, selecting install, selecting cancel and then selecting the Continue Queuing option. Once you have added all the apps you would like to install to the queue, you can select Install on the last application and then select Confirm (you will notice that all the apps in your queue are listed on the Confirm page)…this will install all the apps in your queue.

AppleiPhoneSchool Site Update

April 4, 2009 by Brooke

AiS If you haven’t noticed already, Doug made a few changes to the bottom of the website. He replaced the previous App Store info with more specific topics (such as Themes and Games). Personally, I like it better than the App Store info…take a look at it and let me know what you think.

Battle Dot – Accelerometer Based Game

April 1, 2009 by Brooke

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

We have not seen a ton of games released on the jailbreak scene since firmware 2.x (not like we had with 1.1.4 and below) however, Battle Dot showed up today in Cydia. It is an accelerometer based game in which you move your player (the dot) by tilting your iPhone. The game is well designed and fun to play. So, lets take a look at it!

When you open Battle Dot, you get a nice instruction page. Once you have read the instructions, just tap the screen. You can then tilt your iPhone to move the dot into the 1 player or 2 player door (that is the open space at the top of the screen). You will then get a screen in which you can choose to play one of four different arenas. Each arena has a unique element to make the game a little trickier. The first arena (from left to right) has a tornado that you want to aviod, the second arena is broke into four separate squares that you have to try to maneuver through, the third arena has a bar that moves back and forth across the play screen and the forth arena has a constantly rotating open circle in the middle of the play screen. To select an arena, just move your dot through it’s “door way.”

Safari Tab Closer – Close All Your Tabs With One Button

March 31, 2009 by Brooke

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

Safari Tab Closer is an app that allows you to close all your open Safari tabs using just one button! When you install Safari Tab Closer, it does not add an icon to your SpringBoard, it just automatically enables the mod. To use the mod, open Safari and tap and hold the icon all the way to the right on the lower menu bar (the tab icon). This will then open a pop-up with two options; Close All Tabs and Cancel. If you select Close All Tabs, all your open Safari tabs will close. Brilliant…just brilliant! This app worked fine for me and is available via the BigBoss source. [Read more…]

Glass Two – WinterBoard Theme

March 30, 2009 by Brooke

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

Glass Two is a clean theme that contains 142 icons, dock, status bar and wallpaper. The theme also contains a template so that you can create your own icons (I love when they do that!!). The only issue I have with this theme is that the dock that that theme comes with has reflections of icons however, the reflections are (from left to right); Phone, Safari, iPod and Settings. I personally like to have different icons in my dock but, then it doesn’t reflect correctly. It isn’t a huge deal since you can easily change this using other docks in WinterBoard. If you liked the Glass theme…then you will probably want to check this one out. It is available via the modmyi source. [Read more…]

Nissho Creative Corp. (aka Ichiban Games) is running a promotion in which all of their application are free from today (March 27th) through March 29th. The apps include Fire Art Garden (normally $0.99), Einstein (normally $4.99) and Watts Shockin’ (normally $1.99). I have had Fire Art Garden on my iPhone for a while now and it is a game that I enjoy. I have very briefly played Watts Shockin’ and it seems like a decent app too. I have not demoed Einstein (Note: Einstein requires 2.2.1 firmware). So, if you are looking for some new games…you might want to check these out!

Fire Art Garden – “Fire Art Garden is an action puzzle game where they player slides panels around the screen to guide lit fuses to firework canons. Players complete a stage by connecting a lit fuse to all the cannons on the screen.”

Einstein – “Einstein is a 3D action game where the player tries to get the colored balls into the same color goals by denting (touching the cells) and tilting the game board.”

Watts Shockin’ – “Watts Shockin’ is a puzzle game designed for casual gamers and uber-gamers alike where players can race against their own best time or against the clock, rotating wire tiles to connect the light bulbs placed around the playing field with the batteries that provide the electric charge.”

6 iPhone 3.0 Icons – WinterBoard Theme

March 27, 2009 by Brooke

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

6 iPhone 3.0 Icons is a theme that includes the Stocks, iPod, Phone, Voice Memos, SMS and MMS icons from the 3.0 firmware. When you install 6 iPhone 3.0 Icons (via the iSpazio source), it will add the theme into WinterBoard where it can then be activated/deactivated. When activated, the Phone, Stocks, iPod and SMS icons will change to the 3.0 icons however, you will not see the Voice Memos or MMS icons due to the fact that there are no apps with these titles on your SpringBoard (or at least not on my SpringBoard). But, the icons are in the theme’s folder so if you want them you can go to Library/Themes/iPhone 3.0 Icons/Icons folder on your iPhone or iPod Touch. I also added them to this post (see screenshots below) The theme only contains these six icons. I will say that I’m a little confused by the MMS icon…I’m not sure if it is based on the country you are in or what but, Doug does not have that icon on his 3.0 upgrade.
