iPhone applications that does not make it to the AppStore – Treasures lost to the customers

AppStore has over 30.000 applications on offer to you at the moment. Apple AppStore is a success with almost 1 billion downloads up till now.

However, there is a flip side to this story. Lot of developers’ makes applications for the Apple products IPhone and IPodTouch but their products never makes it to the AppStore.

 

Applications that utilize certain functionalities in the iPhone like cut and paste, video recording, streaming, MMS, filesharing through Bluetooth and batch processes does not make it to the AppStore.

Apple also reserves them to prohibit applications that do not fit into the vision of Apple iPhone usage, like podcasting, direct access to the GPS and competing email and web browser clients.

iPhone 3.0 firmware will make it possible to utilize some of these functionalities, but not all. Therefore there is a development of jail breaking of the iPhones. These hacked versions of iPhones can utilize the capabilities that Apple do not want users to use, even in the new firmware 3.0.

Some developers complain about the discrimination of applications launched on AppStore as they seem to be of competition reasons mostly, to the disadvantage of Apple.
This question the AppStore as a sole provider of applications to the iPhone, and will maybe force the upcoming of competing AppStore’s in the near future.

Apple has not taken any special efforts in fighting the distribution of applications made for the hacked versions of the iPhone as it may have a positive effect on the iPhone concept, as it creates a positive buzz and creative development around the product.

There are 10 applications that Apple does not promote on the AppStore, and they are;

Clippy that make it possible to cut and paste text between applications. This is a functionality iPhone users have asked for since the launch of the iPhone. You can copy a text message and paste it into an email. Clippy does not work with Mobile Safari though. This functionality is promised to be in the 3.0 firmware version of the iPhone.

Cyntact makes it possible to get pop-ups of the pictures of your contacts when you browse through your contacts list and not only when they call you as you do in the original iPhone software.. This enables you to quick get information you have on a person, either using names or pictures.

Voicemail Forwarder can forward sound messages to anyone with an email address. As iPhone solution acts as a receiver portal for sound messages only. The purpose of being able to do this is to either archive or forward funny messages to others.

Cycorder: enables you to take both pictures and videos with your iPhone, which is not possible on the standard edition of your iPhone today. The software makes it possible to record a video with up to 15 captures pr second in a resolution of 384 x 288 pixles.

MxTube: makes it possible for you to see Youtube videos on your iPhone if you do not have access to internet. MxTube enables you to watch your favourite Youube videos offline.

MiVTones: software makes it possible to play any video as a ring tone when someone is calling you. So its an advanced ring tone, instead of the standard audio version you can do on your standard iPhone. You can select between various videos for the various contacts you have in your contacts list, and share videos with others that use this application.

Adblock: is a add-on to Mobile Safari, as it filters out most of the advertisments on the websites you surfe. Then you do not have to suffer from slow downloads of web pages filled with ads in them.

FindMyi: makes it possible to find your phone at any time, anywhere through FindMy’s web page. The application makes it possible to track your phone with the help of the built in GPS functionality of your phone. FindMyi runs in batch mode all the time and does not conflict with other operations on the phone.,So if you fear your phone is stolen or lost, you can salvage data and lock the phone through this software and their web page.

Lessons learned: what Apple has gained having lost the PC war to Microsoft

Lessons learned: what Apple has gained having lost the PC war to Microsoft

The unleashed war actions like Apple’s suit against HTC which is a Google’s partner, Adobe-Apple tension, and many other minor signs all that gives certain ground to view the relations between Apple and Google as a full-scale war similar to that Apple had in the past with Microsoft. Google being a relatively new company can hardly boast of big expertise in building an overall marketing and promotional product strategy, while Apple having suffered in the past a bitter defeat had to get some useful experience. And it seems that it really has learnt something.  

Consumer-oriented distribution channels. During the PC Wars, PCs were delivered through a rather limited retail shelf space. There was a range of branded stores. To be successful one should place its products there along with products of other manufacturers. No technical support was guaranteed. Today the situation is completely different. Apple runs a range of stores that provide a superior environment for consumers to experience hardware hands-on and learn about the full line-up of Apple products. By contrast, Google is absolutely lacking that consumer cooperation feature while Apple has learnt its lesson.

Pricing. Apple used to price its Mac products at a higher range, pointing at a unique nature of their devices in comparison to Windows-based PC offerings. People turned out to be more saving –oriented and chose cheaper Microsoft-IBM products. Now Apple is leading quite a reasonable pricing policy, not leaving a sufficient pricing gap between its products and products of its major competitors. Besides, iPad is the cheapest new product category delivered by Apple.

Development environment. To have a quality platform can be good but it is definitely not enough. It must attract developers who will enrich its content with diverse apps focused on different target audience. While competing with Microsoft, Apple forgot this, launching and abandoning technology initiatives, co-opting and competing with their developers and at times missed promised milestones. 
By contrast now Apple is following the path Microsoft routed almost 20 years ago. It integrates core technologies across all products (moving on to the 4.0 stage of its mobile platform at all devices), made sure developer tools readily support these core initiatives (SDK kits which are updated on the regular basis), has consistently hit promised milestones, and has ensured that the iPhone application development process makes money for the third parties engaged. 
That’s why the number of iPhone only apps has past over 140 000, and iPhone and iPad developers all over the world are eager to be engaged in the pious activity. 

Target audience choice: PCs first came to offices of large enterprises giving them a possibility to dictate standards or types of solutions. Common users kept to the same hardware they used at work. Moreover, a more conservative nature of Microsoft was a safe harbor when compared to weird Mac products. Microsoft managed to straddle enterprises which were the key audience and drove the company to success. Today Apple is good at defining its target audience and making its products mass-market friendly. Though the slogan “Think different” seems to be out-of-date, as Apple products are in the consumer mainstream now, while Google occupies the niche Apple had many years ago – tech focused adherents. 

To sum it up Apple’s market success is evident and undoubted though the company itself is becoming that powerful evil enterprise Microsoft was in the previous decade. And it is that resilience and all embracing reach that has averted many prior adherent Microsoft’s followers. Can the scenario repeat?

The Social Media Craze – What’S Working, What’S Lost Luster And What Is Flying Under The Radar

admin    Social Media Marketing     Craze, Flying, Lost, Luster, Media, Radar, Social, Under, What's, Working

Social Media, Networking, Blogging and Uploading Videos, what won’t people do today to get more clients? Even the President of the United States of America is on these sites and they are doing him a lot of good! But what really works? What’s doing better than others? Lets go over some of the sites. Facebook and Myspace. In the beginning they seemed to be more of the friendly young crowd sites you use to meet someone and make friend with. But now it’s become a great place to meet like-minded people and that can be for business or pleasure. The only thing about these kinds of sites is that they were not made for the purpose of social networking in from a business point of view. Facebook for example has about 1% of the world’s population on it but you and I can’t see that since a members list is not available. So you only get to add people to know by name or who are friends of friends. With blogging sites, you need the time to put up posts on a regular basis. In twitter, it’s great for sort of getting a fan base for your self and for meeting other people like yourself doing what you’re trying to do. There are many different Blog sites so depending on where you’re from and what you do it’s best you pick a site that can benefit you the most, or join many sites and keep them running as long as they are working out for you. Video Posting is another great social media gig that, yes, President Obama does so well. No need to say you have to be able to act or project in the video! If you’re selling something you don’t want people think you’re a lunatic, so this gig is not meant for everyone. For those of you, who can do it, by all means get your face in you tube and get people watching you and listening to what you have to say. Reading something on someone’s blog is far different from watching a video of him or her whether it’s a good or a bad thing is up toy you. Other sites such as Linkedin or Ecademy are also great sites but are more standard in other countries. So many sites are in, some are flying under the radar, but what matters to you would depend on what you do and what you sell. It’s not a bad idea to try out a few of your top picks and see, which grows for you more, and stick to it. But don’t expect a sudden rush of adds or views because on the web, half of the world is competing with you.
