http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/46561edaf13a2eae3876c8adf4c39f72.pngShortly before Apple rolled out iOS 10 to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users around the world on Tuesday, the iMessage App Store made its debut. As the name suggests, the iMessage App Store lets users install apps and extensions within the Messages app, allowing them to perform actions within a conversation that would have required them to leave the app in previous versions of iOS.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/8bf167556ac701773d80b240fa63a35b.jpgApple unveiled two hot iPhones last week — they are hot, no matter what you hear about their boring design — and a formidable Apple Watch Series 2 that will give even (smart) watch makers even more headaches. The new devices have some impressive new features. Just look past the familiar design, and you’ll spot a lot of exciting gems. Look even harder, and you’ll see signs of the next-gen iPhone, the building blocks that Apple needs now for the smartphones of the future. And yes, the wireless AirPods are very exciting too, regardless of how much fun one can make at their expense. In what follow…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/65ca6ea203739870009654b63f4507dc.jpgThere are two major things happening in the mobile world right now, and they both favor Apple. The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are about to launch, and some carriers already expect record sales. Meanwhile, Apple’s main rival is dealing with a massive Galaxy Note 7 problem that’s been getting worse and worse for the company with each passing day. We were so busy focusing on Apple’s announcements last week, which came just a few days after Samsung announced its unprecedented Galaxy Note 7 recall, that we missed Apple’s brilliant reaction to the exploding Galaxy Note 7.

The company that copies everything Apple and Samsung do has a problem with exploding phones

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/e2ffc4d13ba47aa29d9a2e1589b1ef2d.jpgSafety implications aside, this has to be the greatest and most hilarious story of comeuppance we've seen in a long time in consumer tech. Xiaomi, for those unaware, is a China-based smartphone startup that has found tremendous success in the cell phone market. In the company's early days, it launched inexpensive, relatively high-quality Android phones that looked like iPhones. In fact, it shamelessly copied every move Apple made. It even once launched a phone by having an executive in jeans and a black mock turtleneck host a press conference. Seriously, we're not joking. Then, Xiaomi moved on…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/cd8152cea0690db2e4de28f28fee1e98.jpgiOS 10 is here, but it's brought some problems.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/894168441a4ad9e457c14e249e7cc0c3.jpgiOS 10 was released just a short while ago and it is undoubtedly an update you'll want to get your hands on as soon as possible. While early iOS releases sometimes need some time to get all the kinks out, the endless number of iOS 10 betas Apple released will hopefully make the shipping version of iOS 10.0 much more stable than early releases of previous iOS iterations. While you may already be familiar with some of the broader iOS 10 features such as all of the snazzy new things you can do in Messages and the long-overdue overhaul to Apple Music, we've put together a list of 25 iOS 10 feature…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/cd8152cea0690db2e4de28f28fee1e98.jpgIf you've been reading about iOS 10 all summer long with envy as other people chat about the iOS 10 beta that you didn't quite have enough faith in to install, it's time to put an end to the jealousy. And we can't say we blame you, by the way — the iOS 10 beta run has been extremely stable, but Apple has released some truly shaky beta software in the past so it's understandable if some people made sure to avoid it. Today marks the end of the beta period though, and Apple's new iOS 10 software has been released for all iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. (more…) Trending right now: The …

Netflix explains why broadband data caps are dumb

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/b9e189302486930da5246d3df622a3b7.jpgFor most of us, data caps are just annoying. But for Netflix, they pose an existential threat to its way of doing business. If people have to pay extra to watch internet TV, it gives Comcast and TWC the edge. So it's not surprising that Netflix feels strongly about the emerging trend of data caps, but the company really pulled no punches in a letter to the FCC.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5d37004365af67cc64f5569e11773380.jpgEven though some users might complain about periodic price increases, Netflix still offers users the best bang for their buck relative to any other streaming or cable service currently on the market. The content on Netflix is tremendously engaging and addictive, but it can admittedly be hard to keep up with every title that’s coming in and every title that’s on its way out the door. Truth be told, even keeping up with Netflix’s growing stable of original programming can be tough. In short, if forced to pick a Netflix shortcoming – a challenge in and of itself – I might venture to say that the …

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/27abd74f096131c1152025aecd46624b.jpgThe biggest issue with VR to date has been the lack of content. Considering the fact that VR is a relatively new medium, this doesn't come as much of a shock, but it's certainly one of the primary reasons that the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive haven't taken off. But even more frustrating than the lack of content is the difficulty one experiences trying to find any decent content in the first place. Thankfully, with the launch of PlayStation VR later this year, Sony is going to avoid this issue altogether with an old-school solution. (more…) Trending right now: These are the iPhone and iPa…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/7afe0b730f51c9f15df3c2378d707f4e.jpgThe Galaxy Note 7 has been nothing short of a nightmare for Samsung. Despite a series of initial positive reviews, it didn’t take long before we saw an influx of reports regarding Note 7 devices either exploding or catching fire while charging. Now we seemingly can’t go a day without hearing about a new crazy incident involving Samsung’s phablet. Over the past few weeks we’ve seen stories of Note 7 explosions destroying cars, charring homes, and damaging hotel rooms.

Sometimes apps just don't have good maps in certain areas, and sometimes you travel outside of cell coverage before your phone finishes downloading maps for the area you're in.

Packed with a number of system-wide improvements, tweaks and engaging new features, iOS 10 is certainly an update that will help even older iOS devices feel like new.
