Hmm...   anyway the link was http://9to5mac.com/2013/10/24/new-ios-remote-icon-in-itunes-tips-upcoming-app-redesign-for-ios-7/ (corrected above)

 

Also another interesting audio player app (plays DSD - through convertion):

Typing in the passcode from an external keyboard still isn't working under 7.0.3.

I've held off installing iOS 7 on my 2nd Gen iPad, am I being overly cautious?

[grawk]

I've been happy with it on my ipad mini, which is the same hardware, but I'd say don't install it until you're sure you're ready to move, since you can't go back.

Not sure whether you should or not, but I'd be interested in what you think of the OS once you do.

Shelly, Remote App updated!

And still doesn't rotate.

Thanks Ric!

 

Mine now rotates on the ipad, just not on the iphone (which isn't really necessary imo).

Anyone here having issues with lockup/restarts on 5s while connected to a Bluetooth keyboard? It happens usually when I'm waking up the phone through the keyboard or when the phone and the keyboard is trying to re-establish connection.

Interestingly, the issues has never arisen while using the same keyboard with my iPad 4 (iOS 7).

What are you guys using for a case and/or screen protector? My 5 has been naked for awhile (just a glass screen protector) and after seeing the wife shatter hers recently I should start getting serious about protecting it.

[HeadphoneAddict]

I'm using an apple leather case with Zagg screen protector most of the time. Sometimes a Lifeproof case in inclement weather.

[Hopstretch]

I have now killed two naked iPhones in the same manner. 

 

-- Put iPhone down on granite countertop.

 

-- Do not notice small amount of moisture on said countertop.

 

-- Go to pick up iPhone, which is now invisibly adhering to the smooth surface due to said moisture.

 

-- iPhone does not, as anticipated, detach and rise into the air. Rather, it squirts horizontally along the counter as apparently frictionlessly as an air hockey puck, eventually runs out of counter, briefly attains independent flight, meets tiled kitchen floor and that's all she wrote.

 

Always wear a rubber! 

[Dusty Chalk]

I'm sorry to laugh at the destruction of your property, but that was damn funny.

[Torpedo]

I'm playing safe with a rubber. No screen protection.

A friend of mine and my cousin use this

 

 

I'm using this other one

 

 

this might be the next one

 

 

They're all available at Amazon and are really cheap.

[blessingx]

If you live near a computer/electronics shop I'd stop by there. Last two iPhones had a surprisingly solid, black TPU case similar to http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009F39WB6/ref=redir_mdp_mobile picked up for $2.49 locally. No screen protector (dislike decreased viewing quality).

I use a spigen tough armor case that doesn't add much to the size but seems to protect well.

[n_maher]

Ryan, I bought my wife a 5 for Xmas and it came with a bunch of cases including a black body glove case that is pretty nice. It's yours if you want it.

[Cankin]

I use a Spigen case and no screen protector

My 5s is naked. Fuck it. Looks too nice. T-mobile's Plus plan would help me stomach a break.

x2. I also have their glass screen protector as well.

[recstar24]

Leaning towards the spigen tough armor as well, as well as the glass screen protector. Thanks guys.

[recstar24]

Thanks guys for the spigen tough armor rec - it's perfect. Not bulky at all but pretty solid feel and seems well protected. I got the metal slate color and it matches the overall design of the phone pretty closely. Unfortunately my luck with the spigen film protectors didn't go so well...came in a 3 pack, got my wife's on the first try, but the last 2 attempts on mine were disastrous, just ripped them off and said "why bother".

[Salt Peanuts]

^ I haven't used their film screen protectors.  I have their glass protector on mine and vastly prefer it to numerous film protectors I've used in the past.

[recstar24]

The spigen film one is fantastic. It's coated with something that makes it hard as plastic and on my wife's phone it went on super easy. Have no idea why it failed on mine

Supposedly big performance jump on iPhone 4 and iOS 7.1.
