iPhone 6 is going to launch this October/November

Apple is readying 90 million pieces of its ‘biggest handset’ for the year 2014. The Cupertino giant has reportedly ordered 90 million handsets of the new handset from its Chinese partner, Foxconn.
“Foxconn Electronics is expected to land orders for 90 million units of the iPhone 6 from Apple in 2014, the Chinese-language Commercial Times cited data from Citigroup Global Markets as indicating”,
The new iPhone 6 could come in with a bigger display of 4.8 (few reports also mention 4.7 inch display size). In December last year, the CEO of Apple Tim Cook in an official memo to Apple employees hinted on “some big plans that we think customers are going to love.”
The iPhone 6 is expected to launch this year during the year end festive season in September/October.

McAfee Antivirus is now free for Android & iOS

McAfee, the Intel-owned IT security company, has announced that its McAfee Antivirus & Security app (known as McAfee Security app on iOS) will be free on Android and iOS platforms.

The McAfee Antivirus & Security app is now available for free on the Google Play store for Android and iTunes App Store for iOS.

The company claims that the move is targeted at making the security of mobiles and tablets powered by Android and iOS an integral part of the consumer experience.

McAfee quoted a recent mobile security trend report claiming that roughly 82 percent of apps track users' personal details, while around 80 percent of apps collected location details.

The McAfee Security app offers privacy features such as multi-user app profiles, app lock, app protection, call blocker and SMS filter.

Some of the anti-theft features offered by the app include CaptureCam, which can quietly click image of the person holding a user's lost device and emails the image to the user along with the device location; S.O.S that automatically saves the last location of the device before it runs out of battery; device lock, which prevents misuse of the device by remotely locking it; remotely wipe data, which cleans the personal data to factory default settings; backup and restore data, which can save contacts and messages on demand, or on a schedule; locate and track can help find a device if it is lost or stolen; uninstall protection, which protects the McAfee Security app from being deleted.

Commenting on the announcement, Jagdish Mahapatra, Managing Director, India and SAARC, McAfee said, "With India placed on the tip of mobile device explosion, there is an overwhelming need of adoption of security and privacy protection in our digital lives. With free access to our award-winning mobile security product, Indian consumers will be empowered to access all the benefits of this connected world and enjoy a safe mobile life."

Apple Updated iOS 7 to iOS 7.1

Apple has released the much-awaited iOS 7.1 update. The latest version of Apple's mobile software, iOS 7.1, is packed with interface refinements, bug fixes, improvements, and new features.

With the updated OS, you can now control exactly how long Siri listens. You can manually control when Siri listens by holding down the Home button while you speak and releasing it when you are done.

Apple says to have improved the Touch ID fingerprint recognition in the upgraded OS.

The phone dialler and power off features seem to have got the major visual changes. The incoming call interface, in the updated OS, includes separate decline and accept buttons just below the Remind Me and Message options.

iOS 7.1 also includes support for the CarPlay feature. Apple CarPlay introduces a better way to use iPhone while driving. CarPlay enables drivers to access to contacts stored on the iPhone, make calls, return missed calls or listen to voicemails without taking their hands from the steering wheel.

Drivers can also use maps, listen to music and access messages "with just a word or a touch", Apple said. Drivers will also be able to read messages and dictate responses via Apple's voice-activated Siri software.

With the rollout of iOS 7.1, Apple has made slight improvements to the keyboard interface, thereby making the shift and delete keys noticeable.

To get the new update, Go to Settings > Select General > And tap Software Update.
