    Why exactly does iOS 7 need to be 64bit?

    apple has an advantage here. because they design their own hardware and OS and developer app making software in house, they can have everything ready from the get go. the OS is already updated for 64 bit. the native apps are already updated for 64 bit. and xcode which is how developers make apps...

    So what do you think of the iPhone 5c?

    I'm digging the 5S, and will be in line this friday for it. the 5C however looks like what would happen if you crossed iphones with crocs. ugh. no thank you. reckon it'll sell plenty though. some people like loud gaudy colorful phones, and if they like iOS too its a win/win for them.

    those of you who would use an iphone if it came with a bigger screen, click this thread

    I made a similar thread at imore but I'm curious what folks over here will have to say. Now I want a bigger screen too, because its hard to read the tiny print with my bad eyes. I'm sick of squinting. but I like apples OS and ecosystem. and I love the 5S with exception of the screen. Now I...

    My Rant on the iPhone 5s

    an app developer mentioned in another thread that the new apple developer kit automatically compiles apps in both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries even if you change just one character. This means that unless the developers just flat out don't touch their apps again, that they will be 64-bit ready...

    My Rant on the iPhone 5s

    I'm buying the 5S when it goes on sale. I'll be in line for that phone. I think the people saying its nothing new and sucks are being unfair. its an awesome device, imo. The camera is a nice improvement, the CPU will make the phone scream, and I'm too lazy to use a pin code and love the touch...

    Why exactly does iOS 7 need to be 64bit?

    the point of the A7 being able to run 32 bit apps is so that iphone users don't find that half their apps don't work because they haven't been updated yet. thats why its backward compatible. Apple is good at making stuff like this seamless. Apple also isn't known to just toss specs in for specs...

    Why exactly does iOS 7 need to be 64bit?

    I'll happily pay it. Then I will have an iphone which is my prefered smartphone with a screen thats easier to read. though apple did put dynamic text in iOS7. if it works well and many apps take advantage of it, it may allow me to make the print bigger and resolve the issue without a bigger...

    Why exactly does iOS 7 need to be 64bit?

    because apple controls their own hardware, OS, app store and software developer kit, they've made it very easy to make apps able to run in 64bit. it took infinity blade 2 hours and one person to do it. plus apple has their developer kit where is easy to make one app that will know if its on a 32...

    Thanks for the reply! :) yeah thats probably what I'll have to do. I can't find a solid answer anywhere. I'l just have to play with it. its a solid app. I love it! It certainly blows apples poor excuse for a map out of the water. LOL

    google maps, best routes?

    nobody has responded to this query, and as with iMore I'll bump it once (but no more because I don't want to be annoying) in the hopes somebody will see it and if nothing else point me in a direction to find the answer. I wish google had a customer service number.
