iWanted Rich, the new spin of the I Am Rich concept that we’ve mentioned last month has been finally pulled by Apple.
As a reminder, iWanted Rich was a $1 app that came with the promise of turning $1000 in February and while its developer only managed to sell a couple hundred copies, it did actually quite [...]

Filed under: OS , iPhone , iPad One of the big topics of discussion yesterday in our TUAW back channel was this post from the New York Times Bits blog. In "Why can't PCs work more like iPhones," Bilton pointed out that the iPhone has given Apple a chance to build a new OS from the ground up. This is a familiar viewpoint to us here on TUAW. Last year, I asked whether the future of the Mac OS would turn out to be the iPhone . In my write-up, I pointed out that the iPhone OS was built from…
The iPhone’s lack of camera flash makes it a poor performer in low light conditions but developers have been hard at work to make it better.
A+ Camera Flash for example remedies the problem using flash effects, brightening each individual pixel of a photograph to make it appear brighter. Chime and Beeper’s BulbShooter uses shutter time management [...]

Apple’s addition of three-button remote controls to recent iPod and iPhone headphones has led some vendors to compromise the life of their cables, according to a prominent third-party developer. Discussing extensive new testing and manufacturing procedures that his company has developed to prevent cable damage, V-Moda CEO Val Kolton told iLounge that three-button Apple remote cables now carry six thin separate copper strands inside, compared…
The latest buzz is that the App Store has eliminated many “dirty” apps from its offerings (although some made by big name companies, such as Playboy and Sports Illustrated, are still available). It seems that a few too many developers realized just how much sex sells, and the App Store was increasingly becoming a less [...]
Today’s assortment of free games comes from developers Origin8, Gameheart, Blip Time Studios, and Donut Games. If you somehow happen to come across any of them in real life or online, give them a big hug (or virtual high five) for providing their games for free.

Filed under: iPhone An interesting patent application came to light via PatentlyApple yesterday. The patent, titled "Camera as Input Interface," was filed by Apple in August 2008 and details a means of controlling an iPhone by swiping a finger across the device's camera lens. The patent proposes using the iPhone's camera, which is typically idle when the user is on a call, to control voicemail options such as rewind, fast forward, and pause while the iPhone is at the user's ear:…
Filed under: Software Update , Developer , Snow Leopard Mac OS X 10.6.3 Build 10D561 has been released to developers less than a week after the previous build . Not a great deal has changed since the last build -- iPhoneinCanada has the specific details on this latest build, which include refinements to OpenGL and 64-bit logic. Since this sixth 10.6.3 build follows so quickly after the last one, it's a good indication that an official release of 10.6.3 is imminent. 10.6.2 arrived on November 9, 2009 ,…
Filed under: Gaming , Software , Developer , iPhone , App Store , iPod touch PopCap has released some sales information on their latest iPhone game, Plants vs. Zombies , and it's a runaway hit: the game has sold over 300,000 copies in just the nine days it's been out on the App Store, which means the company has garnered over $1 million in sales already. Very impressive -- first, we had an app make a million total , then a company was making a million a month , and now PopCap has done the same in…
After the rumor-fest surrounding Apple’s mystery device was stanched the moment Steve Jobs unveiled the iPad, a new trend has emerged; SDK Mining. This is the art of digging through the iPad’s operating system to uncover clues about hitherto-undisclosed functionality.

Filed under: Gaming , Software , Deals , App Store Battle of Puppets fell through the cracks here when it was first released, and that was unfortunate -- it's a 2D real-time strategy game for the iPhone with a distinctive art style and a plethora of cool features that definitely deserves a look. The team has been updating the app often, and the latest update not only adds in achievements and leaderboards via the OpenFeint platform, but also has dropped the price to just 99 cents for a limited time.…
Filed under: Gaming , Freeware , Apple , Developer , iPhone , App Store There's been some interesting discussion in our comments section lately about Ngmoco's freemium model -- first they made headlines by endorsing it even to the detriment of one of their most popular games , and then they bought Freeverse and the conversation started up again. But while customers don't seem to like the freemium model very much, there's a growing number of examples that go the other way, and here's…
Factory Games, a new San Francisco-based iPhone game developer, launched its first iPhone game, Valet Hustle. And the game makes no bones about its support for gay rights in general and equal marital rights for gays and lesbians in particular.
We suspected that because of it's larger size, the iPad would be able to fit more powerful components into it's frame, with the obvious result being more speed, better graphics and longer battery life. Now Apple saying that is only partly the case. While it's got a more powerful processor and bigger battery, the iPad uses the PowerVR SGX graphics processor made by Imagination Technologies; the same one used in the latest iPod Touch. The info was found in the most recent iPad SDK Beta 3…
Apple's decision to ban sexual content from the App Store has brought them some hefty criticism, with many accusing them of being hypocritical by banning sexual content and yet giving favor to a select few big-name developers, like Sports Illustrated and Playboy. Now, a developer says that naughty stuff might make it's way back on, as they have found a new category for apps called "Explicit". When a developer submits an app, they are asked to chose primary and secondary categories that…
It's called iPhone Explorer, and it's available for Windows and Mac machines. With it you can browse folders, copy files, and more--all without jailbreaking.
Apple released an update for the iPhone SDK for the iPad, bringing the current version of that SDK to 3.2 beta 3, before pulling down the update.
According to a new report, Apple is now allowing developers to add contests, lotteries, or sweepstakes to iPhone and iPod Touch apps, thanks to a new SDK rule.
