itunes – Dr. Ray Pastore's Instructional Technology Blog https://raypastore.com/wordpress Sat, 21 Jul 2012 12:49:49 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.7.15 166124113 Clueful Pulled From Apple’s App Store https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/07/clueful-pulled-from-apples-app-store/ https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/07/clueful-pulled-from-apples-app-store/#respond Sat, 21 Jul 2012 12:49:49 +0000 https://raypastore.com/wordpress/?p=1534 And this is why I hate the apple app store and will never have an iPhone (at least as my main phone). I do have an iPad and Macbook though so I do like apple, I just hate iTunes and their app store.

From Huffingtonpost: “Privacy-conscious iPhone users, the app of your dreams is no more. Clueful, an app that policed your iPhone’s other apps for privacy violations, was pulled from the App Store this week, and both the company that made it and Apple are keeping their mouth shut about why.

What Clueful did, as The Huffington Post described back when it was released in May, was tell you exactly what sort of misbehavior your apps were up on your iPhone. Does the app you just downloaded access your address book? GPS coordinates? Social networking accounts? Clueful claimed to be “the world’s first and only app” to tell you so.”

Facebook releases Instagram clone for iPhone and iPad https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/05/facebook-releases-instagram-clone-for-iphone-and-ipad/ https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/05/facebook-releases-instagram-clone-for-iphone-and-ipad/#respond Thu, 24 May 2012 19:23:38 +0000 https://raypastore.com/wordpress/?p=1255 Well this is kinda surprising. They just bought instagram and then release their own clone which they obviously have been working on for a while. The app is only available via iTunes so it is not available for Android yet, although I assume it will be very soon. But the question is, why did Facebook buy Instagram for 1 Billion if they were just going to release their own version anyway? Was it a copyright issue? I would doubt it considering there are 20 other Instagram clones in the market.

Anyway, here is a link to the app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook-camera/id525898024?ls=1&mt=8
