http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/a592bb5d3850130f889963ed3d8a0c30.jpg There was some drama over the weekend within the Pokemon Go community as 9to5Mac reported that development on the Apple Watch version of the game had been indefinitely suspended. Niantic attempted to extinguish the fire before it could spread by tweeting "Pokémon Go for Apple Watch is coming soon," but wouldn't confirm its original claim that the app would be ready before the end of 2016.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5f0c6d7bda9c124278eac200c3ba85e7.png Typically when you see a lawsuit over a faulty product in the automotive industry it's a simple manufacturing defect, lack of testing, or some other shortcoming that seems obvious in hindsight. A new Toyota lawsuit over bad wiring is none of those things, and it's hard to imagine anyone being able to predict such a thing would ever happen. You see, Toyota's been using some fancy new wires that are great for the environment. In fact, they're so nature-friendly, they're actually mouse food. Continue reading...

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/4f7516f02b51c7a58eb2c0b5b9cdd488.jpg Apple has launched a formal appeal against a $14 billion tax ruling handed down earlier this year by the European Union. Apple has fought the decision since it was announced, painting Apple as a "convenient target" being used to generate "headlines" in the EU. At the heart of the claim is a dispute about where Apple's profits should be taxed. Under the agreement with the Irish government that Apple has had in place for decades, the bulk of the company's European profits are attributed to a "head office" in Ireland, and go virtually untaxed.

The Google Pixel has easily been one of the most anticipated phones of the year. And, for many people, it’s more than met expectations; however, it’s becoming a let-down for other buyers, citing poor speaker quality.

Games on Android look beautiful and there are often some excellent ideas, but there’s one thing many of them suffer from: the touch controls.

Rogue One marks the first Star Wars movie that’s outside of the sagas you might be used to. Disney’s first “Star Wars story” is already a hit with critics, and it’s already a huge money-maker.

In it, there’s the iconic “to me you are perfect” moment, where Andrew Lincoln, who we’re used to seeing playing Rick these days, confesses to his best friend’s wife that he loves her using cue cards. SNL took inspiration from that moment to create one of the better sketches in recent memory. Continue reading...

Almost two months ago, in late October, Vine announced plans to shutdown the video service.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f591384111bedffdcf1afd2887a4a01c.jpg We were all promised smart homes several years ago where everything is connected and devices turn on and off on their own when we need them to. Air conditioning and heat are supposed to be optimized at all times, coffee is supposed to start brewing right when we wake up, window shades should open and close with a single voice command, and our front door should unlock itself as we approach it. So what happened? Sadly, there's still no easy and affordable way to make it all happen in the blink of an eye. But the good news is the tools are now all there to let you piece together the smart ho…

While Apple was initially interested in developing its own electric car from scratch, the New York Times relayed that Apple's automotive initiative was being scaled back due to a lack of significant progress. Nonetheless, Apple doesn't appear ready to give up on its automotive dreams completely. In the wake of reports that Apple has shifted its focus towards developing self-driving automotive software, Reuters is reporting that Apple not too long ago hired Alexander Hitzinger, the f…
