How to Save Your iPhone Battery, From a Former Apple Store Genius

I worked on the Genius Bar for almost two years, and the most difficult issue to solve was short battery life. It was extremely difficult to pinpoint the exact reason why someone’s battery was draining. I made it my mission to discover the specific reasons for iOS battery drainage. This article is a product of my years of research and anecdotal evidence I gathered in the hundreds of Genius Bar appointments I took during my time as a Genius and iOS technician, as well as testing on my personal devices and the devices of my friends. iOS 7.1 came out recently and brought with it a bevy of design tweaks and performance enhancements. However, some users are reporting poor battery life since the update, and many blogs are reporting it as fact. This is not one of those “Turn off every useful feature of iOS” posts that grinds my gears.

Google’s Nexus 4 will be now available on Three in the UK on contract and pre-paid plans from December 13th.

Google debut its device with O2, who was their partner at the initial stages in UK’s market. Now Google is bringing its device Nexus 4 to another well known carrier in the market called Three. Nexus 4 is a Smartphone powered with Android 4.2. It will be available from December 13^th on Three. Either you can buy it on per month contract of 35 with upfront cost of 29 or it is available pre-paid for 399.99. It is also available for a 2 year contract that offers high on-network talk and text limits along with unlimited data.

This new carrier partner of Google came in market just one month after the launch of Nexus 4. It became popular and made quick sell-outs in the market of UK and other parts of the world as well. The latest Smartphone of Google has been experiencing problem regarding its supply in the market. Either the supply of this Smartphone is very short or its demand is very high, but according to a report Google has improved is shipping time. It will be interesting to see Google expanding its availability in the market.

Nexus 4 might offer good speeds on Three’s network DS-HSDPA. Recently it was revealed that a hack enables the users to switch on LTE on the device manually which is not a good thing for the users of Three. Three is planning to bring its 1800MHz LTE network in the market but this network is not compatible with Nexus 4 AWS LTE. The interesting thing here to note will be that how many people will prefer to buy the Nexus 4 from carriers rather than buying it directly from the Google at cheaper prices and then selecting the network of their own choice.

Facebook messenger finally unveiled for iPad

Many of you might have assumed that Facebook messenger is available for iPad, yet it is not true. It took awhile for Facebook to launch its messenger for the iPad devices. The new graphic is making its way to launch in the event of “come and see what they are building”. In this “what they are building” event, the biggest deal besides the launch of slew ads and some other improvements, the announcement of Facebook messenger for iPad is made.The new Facebook messenger for iPad is having all the features we love to encounter like read receipts, emoticons, location, tagging, photo sharing, group messaging and the latest voice recorder feature. This will all available on iPad and it will be in bigger format than the iPhone.

According to another source, the app has been publically announced with series of mobile products to conceptually fit the scenario. Also it is heard that Microsoft- the partner of Facebook, is killing its messenger services for one month after the launch of Facebook messenger app for iPad.

Fully fleshed Facebook messenger for iPad having video chat, voice message and VoIP is undoubtedly another attempt to kill the home passed phones. Facebook offer combination of VoIP with social graphs to force the people to save their mobile minutes and cut off their home phone lines. With video and voice calling option, people will be able to enjoy conversation with their friends and family living abroad through their iPads.

Still Facebook needs to add up Poke and Instagram app for the iPad devices. It seems like Facebook is revamping its core product for the iPad and mobile devices and adding messenger is the first attempt.
