I know, I know, Pandora’s far from “new” but it recently occurred to me that there are a lot of truly clueless (and truly new) iPhone users out there! Despite Pandora’s perennial Top 25 placement, I still run into people here and there who have never heard of it. Maybe they don’t look at the App Store’s Top 25 list, maybe they don’t “get” internet radio, maybe they actually do live under a rock! Beats me. Since this app is widely considered to be the undisputed king of iPhone radio services, I’ll keep this short: if you have an iPhone or an iPod Touch, get Pandora. No matter what you’re obsessed with, whether it’s Metallica or Taylor Hicks or The Beatles, Pandora will serve up music that’s either made by the object of your affection Tue, 01 Sep 2009 17:22:53 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/iPhoneAppReviews/~3/T66vn01EQxQ/ iPhoneAppReviews.net (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://justanotheriphoneblog.com/wordpress/iphone-software/desert-island-apps/desert-island-apps-1-with-marc-tassin/ Today we ‘re kicking off a new series here on Just Another iPhone Blog “ called ‘Desert Island Apps ‘.  It ‘s based on a very long-running and brilliant BBC Radio show called ‘Desert Island Discs ‘.  The premise of Desert Island Discs is simple and wonderful “ a guest is invited to choose the eight musical pieces (originally records) they would take with them if they were stranded on a desert island.

The trick is in the hardware-software combo – Gigaware Navigation Control HD Radio Receiver and Gigaware HD Radio application. iBiquity takes advantage of the iPhone OS 3.0 and newer, which allows applications to control external accessories. As a result, users can take their HD radio experience with them, tuning into HD2 and HD3 multicast channels while on the go. Alternatively, for the majority of us who are not audiophiles and who don’t want to pay $79.99 for the Gigaware HD Radio accessory, there are “good enough” apps like Pandora and FlyCast… Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry.

From elegant, seven-course dinners to all-night drunken ragers, how you ring in the new decade sets the tone for the remaining 365 days; and since we don’t have the Macworld Expo to look forward to this year, the effects of a bad party can cast a particularly gloomy cloud over the first few weeks of 2010. But this year, you hold your own fate in your hands--literally. With an iPhone in your pocket, even the lamest of gatherings can be magically transformed into something that’s at least cool enough to chronicle on your Facebook page.

Furthermore, this update also allows you to access Shazam’s official Blog directly from the app. While Shazam is available pretty much everywhere, Pandora is still US only and Last.Fm is limited to the US, Germany and the UK, so no luck for the rest of you.

Then you need to know about the new "universal" applications now available in the iTunes App Store. These combo apps for Apple's line of mobile devices are basically "buy one, get one free" deals except for one small difference - both apps are bundled into one download. When you run the universal application on a small-screened device, you'll see the iPhone version and when you run the app on your iPad, you'll see the larger, iPad-only version. And these won't just be blown up, oversized iPhone apps either - they'll be custom designed apps made specifically for the iPad. When searching through the application store, you can identify the universal apps by the small plus sign that appears to the left of the application's price in the search results.

Nehmen wir alleine das App Store-Dilemma, das pro Land einen eigenen iTunes-Account erfordert. Für den Endanwender ist das schwer nachvollziehbar, wenn seit Wochen ein wirklich gelungenes Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 ($9.99; US-Link) im US-Store steht, hier aber nicht freigeschaltet wird. Ohne konkret nachgeforscht zu haben, wäre es mehr als ärgerlich, wenn die Veröffentlichung für diesen Titel hierzulande an irgendwelchen abstrusen Musiklizenzen scheitert. Natürlich darf die unterschiedliche Gesetzeslage nicht vergessen werden, die in Deutschland einen id-Softwareklassiker aus dem Jahr 1993 verbietet, der in Nordamerika ohne Probleme auf das iPhone wandert. Trotzdem lässt sich ein US-Account mittlerweile recht leicht beschaffen. Man wählt dazu über iTunes als Land die USA aus; erstellt sich über den Link einer kostenfreien App eine neue Apple ID, bei der als Zahlungsart None gewählt wird – so wie Apple es selbst erklärt.

Tim Westergren (founder) and Tom Conrad (chief technology officer), the guys who are the public face of the much-in-demand online music startup, Pandora, would undoubtedly agree. After struggling for most of its life, the company, whose service allows you to create a radio station based on the music you like, is suddenly a Silicon Valley darling. Such adoration was made clear at the f8 conference yesterday, when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg singled out Pandora’s service and its tight integration with the social networking site’s new platform. He’s not the only one who’s fallen in love with Pandora. A few weeks ago, it was showcased by Apple CEO Steve Jobs at the launch of iPhone 4.0 OS.

Once again, we’re taking a rapid-fire look at a big collection of recently-released applications across a wide collection of different categories.

Developed solely as an iPhone application, Tapitu’s new edutainment title Amazing Animals: Savanna ($2) still manages to look quite good when upscaled to the larger display of an iPad. Conceptually, Savanna is extremely simple, presenting you with an ultra-wide panning landscape filled with baboons, ostriches, zebras, elephants, antelope, and the like, allowing kids to scroll left or right through the collection, touch any animal, Fri, 07 May 2010 18:35:00 GMT http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/iphone-ipad-gems-beavis-butt-head-co-pilot-live-hd-photogene-savanna-tiltsh/ iLounge Articles (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheIphoneBlog/~3/9svwOCfftsc/ By Staff, Thursday, Jun 3, 2010 | How does a self-employed, creative carpenter use his iPhone to get the job done and what iPhone apps help get him through her day?

Each of the brands/companies prepared a campaign that features rich video, audio and interactive capabilities. Pandora’s advertising solutions allow companies to hyper-target consumers by gender, age, location, the type of music they like and time of day. Advertisers can take advantage of the platform to stream video, audio, direct response or experiential creative to a specific set of consumers, whether they’re using Pandora on the phone or a PC. I haven’t seen the new adverts, but it seems the three companies have prepared some cool campaigns.

Announced in April during a presentation on Apple's Cupertino campus, iOS 4 delivers several long-awaited features for many iPhone users, the most important of which may be "multi-tasking," the ability for apps to run in the background while you launch and use additional applications in the foreground. Developers must first update their iPhone apps to take advantage of this new feature, Mon, 21 Jun 2010 15:13:15 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/readwriteweb/~3/X6qeoxCTlfs/new_iphone_software_arrives_today_can_you_run_it.php ReadWriteWeb (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.tuaw.com/2010/06/21/pandora-for-ios-4-hits-the-streets/ Not a minute too soon! As expected, Pandora has updated the much-loved music app for the iPhone to version 3.1. This build will (drumroll) allow you to keep playing music when you move on to something else. Of course this will only work on devices that support multitasking on iOS 4, which means the iPhone 3GS and the new iPhone 4 available later this week. As I write this, Apple has just delivered the OS update for current iPhones, so those with the iPhone 3GS are good to go. This update will make a whole lot of people very happy. I tried out the 'music in the background' feature with the golden master of iOS 4, and it worked like a charm. Pandora did ask me to re-enter my password. Your mileage may vary on that one. Pandora!

The popular service offering free, personalized music streams was one of the App Store's earliest success stories, and has been a favorite of Apple executives for their presentations. The new update brings the much-anticipated backgrounding feature first demoed at Apple's iOS 4 media event in April, taking advantage of the new multitasking APIs in iOS 4 to allow users to continue streaming music from the application even after switching away to other apps.

Well, the 3.1 version of the Internet music app finally makes that happen. The latest version of Pandora has a few minor bug fixes and minor enhancements but background processing is the big addition. “Backgrounding: Pandora keeps playing after you press press the home button. You can go surf the web or use Facebook and the music won’t stop. (Available only on multitasking capable devices with iOS 4.),” the company wrote in its app description. If you’ve never used the service before, it enables you to listen to various musical artists for free.

Since then we’ve seen a few more roll out.  Some developers have really taken advantage of the new APIs in iOS4.  Others seem to just be adding compatibility at this point.  Let’s hope a lot of them are working on substantial updates.  Hit the jump for some more iOS4 compatible apps! Evernote (version 3.3.5) is one of the first I’ve seen to implement quite a few 4.0 APIs.  Not only does it come complete with fast app switching integration, but your notes will also be able to sync in the background.  This will be extremely useful for users who like to upload pictures.  I’m always doing this when I’m comparing prices.  I’ll take pictures of SKUs from different stores and tag them accordingly which allows me Mon, 21 Jun 2010 19:13:23 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheIphoneBlog/~3/sJhveRWxBfo/ The iPhone Blog (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/blog/4976/ posted by Trey Trawick on Monday, June 21, 2010 at 10:01 am.   The brillant streaming music service Pandora has updated to 3.1, and has brought with it a new feature, multitasking! You can now listen to Pandora while using other apps, a feature that has been wanted and needed for years. Yet another reason to upgrade to 4.0 Mon, 21 Jun 2010 17:01:12 GMT http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/blog/4976/ iPod Touch Fans (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Mashable/~3/McbVK_1w6g0/ by Now that iOS 4 is here, we wanted to take a look at some of the coolest new features. Multitasking has long been one of the most-requested features for the iPhone, and one application scenario has consistently been used to argue for multitasking support: Pandora. While users have always been able to listen to music while doing other tasks using the built-in iPod app, device owners who prefer to use a streaming service like Pandora haven’t been able to do so. That can make long trips — you know, those occasions where you might want to read a book or group of articles and listen to music — pretty painful. Fortunately, Pandora [iTunes link] is fully supported in iOS 4. We’ve put together this video illustrating how Pandora works on iOS 4. As you can see below, the application works great and integrates ingeniously with the iPhone’s new app switcher Mon, 21 Jun 2010 19:02:21 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Mashable/~3/McbVK_1w6g0/ Mashable (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/gizmodo/full/~3/exRHPrQoYPg/pandoras-ios4+compatible-version-31-app-arrives-bringing-multitasking The latest version of Pandora's iPhone app just hit the App Store, bringing with it the promised multitasking support that'll let you stream music in the background on iOS4.

This update is completely free, and only requires you to plug your device in to the computer you usually sync with then waiting for it to download and install in iTunes. There are over 100 new features in iOS 4 according to Apple, but so far my favorite two are folders and multitasking. With folders, you can now have up to 2160 apps on your device, and multitasking now allows for apps like Pandora Radio [Free] to continue playing in the background. For a listing of the other features, take a peek at the Apple iOS 4 Software Update page.

And sure, there are lots to pick from these days, however I think most will agree that Slacker Radio and Pandora are two of the most popular. Well, in a little bit of good news for those that prefer to stream — both Slacker and Pandora have been updated and are iOS 4 ready. The Slacker update arrived yesterday evening with support for backgrounding. Plus the update is also noted as having “various improvements and enhancements.” The update for Pandora also arrived yesterday and included support for backgrounding as well as “other bug fixes and minor enhancements.” In short, you can now stream music while surfing the web or checking your email — and best of all — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 14:01:50 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/iphone-freak/~3/a6OH5v-1mtI/background-streaming-music-on-ios4-slacker-radio-pandora-both-given-updates.html iPhoneFreak (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheIphoneBlog/~3/0fqcuDvtVX0/ By Rene Ritchie, Thursday, Jun 24, 2010 | Just get a new iPhone or iPod touch and curious which are the best, most must-have apps and games you need to install first?

After 2 1/2 hours in the reserved line, I was able to walk out with the iPhone 4 up and running, albeit without contacts, music, videos or my app collection. Getting it home and synced was uneventful. iTunes detected the new phone and dutifully restored everything. A couple of reminders, however: First, some passwords won't survive the sync. I had to sign on to Pandora again, enter my email passwords once more, and tell my Navigon app that I did indeed purchase traffic and panorama view maps. Tapping their icons re-loaded them, but the panorama maps don't display properly just yet, while the regular 2D and 3D maps work just fine. Hopefully this will be part of a Navigon update that includes multitasking. Oh, and your Bluetooth devices will have to be re-paired as well. Speed increases are pretty obvious and very welcome.

There are some excellent games on the list (PopCap didn't waste any time, and Ngmoco has a few, along with both Firemint titles). Art app Brushes and TUAW favorite Dropbox are there too, along with a bevy of other popular titles. This list definitely isn't definitive (iBooks is obviously ready for iOS 4, though it's not on there), but if you want to see what the Retina Display is like or check out multitasking on an app like Pandora, you can do so.

Multitasking in iOS 4 allows compatible apps to run in the background while another app runs in the foreground. Apps in the background can continue to perform tasks such as play music streams. Slacker Inc has announced that its personal radio application, Slacker Radio, has been updated to support multitasking and is available now for free on the App Store. The currently Europe-only Spotify is also headed for background-centric adjustment with the company announcing on its blog that an update has been submitted to Apple. The blog post goes on to suggest that a “surprise” will also be included in the update to thank users for their patience.

Established music services like Rhapsody, Pandora and Slacker continue to improve mobile service, but they are suddenly facing new mobile music competition. Depending on a person’s phone, budget and listening habits, the new services may be a better call. The services seem to be converging on the same target — namely, apps that let users hear personalized radio stations, build play lists and store songs for offline listening. No service has all of these features for all mobile platforms, but they are making progress. Rhapsody’s Premier service ($10 a month), for instance, is great for iPhone users, good for people with Android phones and useless on a BlackBerry until Rhapsody’s BlackBerry app arrives later this summer.

Pandora läuft mittlerweile auf diversen Mobilfunkgeräten und mit der neusten iOS-Version (kostenlos; universal; US-Link) auch im Hintergrund. Natürlich weiterhin nur für legitimierte US-Kundschaft.

It does look nice. What’s New In This Version: I thought my usage of Pandora would greatly increase with the background capabilities, but I was mistaken. Perhaps it’s the lack of 3G in my area, which makes it’s functionality nearly unusable. Nevertheless, the update makes it look cleaner on my home-screen. How often do you use Pandora?

I’m Alex Jordan, one of the new authors here at iSource. I thought I’d break the ice by telling you the top five iOS apps I can’t live without. So, let’s jump right in. Instagram is a unique social network, that as far as I can tell, stems solely from an iOS app. There is no website to go to, no other clients to access the service except for the official Instagram app. What is Instagram? Well, you take pictures, apply filters (or not), and post them, and view other’s photos. Like any other social network, you can comment on other’s posts, or “like” them. Think of it as “Facebook, but only for pictures.” On the surface it seems a little pointless, I’ll admit. However, you really should give it a try. It’s free, and easy to sign up.

Yeah, Pandora has Tue, 14 Dec 2010 03:38:21 GMT http://isource.com/2010/12/13/im-alex-jordan-and-here-are-my-top-five-ios-apps/ iSource (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feeds.ismashphone.com/~r/typepad/1209935315s4903/ismasher/~3/tWrC122Fa0c/best-entertainment-apps-of-2010-1.html The iPad makes a great entertainment device. Not only does it play games, it allows you to watch movies and TV shows. Apps like Netflix and the ABC Player are two favorites for that reason alone. It really is a great way to watch movies. What's more, Apps like Netflix work on an iPod Touch and an iPhone as well. Yes, it's a small screen, but it still looks great, and it's a nice way to watch a movie without disturbing others. Then there are Apps that stream music, Apps like Pandora radio. Entertainment-type Apps are some of our favorites. Let's take a look at the ones we love the most:   This is the ultimate entertainment App on iOS. If you have a Netflix account and an iOS device, you need Netflix.

"We're very excited to have our product as an Apple Store exclusive," said Jessica (whose favorite three apps are Facebook, Pandora and Facegoo).

Federal prosecutors in New Jersey are trying to answer this question in an ongoing investigation, the Wall Street Journal reports. The federal probe aims to discover if any apps built for iOS, Android or other smartphones are illegally collecting or transmitting personally identifying information, such as the phone's unique device identifier (UDID), to app makers or third parties without consent from end users. Gathering information that can be used to personally identify an individual without adequately disclosing what data will be collected and how it will be used could violate the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act designed to prosecute hackers. The investigation, which could continue for months, appears to be in a preliminary phase.

Previously (and possibly still currently) Apple seemed to use the number of downloads an app had to form both the top free and paid lists. While this method might have made sense originally, gaming these download-only lists has turned into a remarkably profitable enterprise for those that have apps with a large install base which also have a way to push users into downloading other apps. If you've played a freemium game lately that offered some kind of benefit for downloading a completely different game, chances are the developer behind the title you're being incentivized into downloading paid the original developer a bucket full of money for that promotion. For both developers it's a win/win situation, one (often) gets a fat stack of cash while the Mon, 18 Apr 2011 18:10:00 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2011/04/18/has-apple-adjusted-the-app-store-charting-algorithms/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.tuaw.com/2011/06/14/pandora-media-offering-ipo-tomorrow/ Music service Pandora is set to introduce its stock to the public tomorrow, becoming one more in a series of social networking and online service companies going with an IPO. Pandora isn't specifically an iOS company, of course, given that its music service runs both through browsers and on a number of platforms. But the company's iOS app has helped its profile. It's consistently stayed one of the top free apps on the App Store. The company's offering 14.7 million shares initially. Pandora's future wasn't ever in actual jeopardy, but certainly the value of the company's app was in question during the lead-up to last week's Apple keynote at WWDC. For a while, iCloud was rumored as being an iTunes streaming service like Pandora, allowing you to listen to your music collection through any iOS device. Those rumors turned out to be untrue so far. iCloud and iTunes Match are only Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:00:00 GMT http://www.tuaw.com/2011/06/14/pandora-media-offering-ipo-tomorrow/ TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.tuaw.com/2011/07/14/dragon-go-is-a-must-have-app-for-your-iphone/ Like the proverbial genie in the bottle, you can ask a lot of Dragon Go! and have a pretty good chance of the app granting your wish. Dragon Go! is the latest free app from Nuance, creators of Dragon Dictate for the Mac and Dragon Dictation for iOS devices. In this latest app, Nuance has delivered what they consider the next generation of voice search, and after several days of testing I have no reason to doubt it. Here's the deal. Speak just about anything to Dragon Go! and it will try to parse your meaning and bring up the right set of tools to complete your search. Ask for news about Libya, or news about Libya from the New York Times and the app complies. Ask for reservations for 2 at a favorite restaurant and Open Table is queried.

MusicPound isn't a game -- rather, it's a music discovery app that's designed to compare your music library (on your iPhone, so you'll have to load music on there if you don't sync it usually) with someone else's. The app will give you a "Music Compatibility Rating," as well as chart your most played and favorite songs, and give you some insight on what kinds of music you both listen to. Obviously, the feedback here is mostly just for fun -- you're hopefully not going to keep or ditch a friend based on what this app tells you. But the app can give you some good recommendations based on what kind of music your friends like, and where your libraries intersect and diverge.

We'll start with nominations in a category, and then tally your votes for the top-nominated products a few days later. The winner in each category receives the highly-coveted title of TUAW Best of 2011. Today's category for nominations in the TUAW Best of 2011 awards is iPhone music apps. This is a huge area in the App Store, with apps that not only play music, but let you create music as well. This is also the last category for iPhone nominations. Apple's GarageBand (US$4.99) made it to the iPhone this year, turning your favorite phone (or iPod touch) into a music-making maniac. Smule's Magic Guitar (free) and Magic Piano (free) can make you a pocket musician in no time.

This was a massive undertaking, with 25 separate categories all requiring their own nominations and voting from our readers. We've learned some lessons for next year's event -- start earlier, watch for astroturfing in the nominations, drop some unpopular categories -- and the Best of 2012 will be even better. The editorial staff here at TUAW agreed with many of the reader picks, but we had our own opinions on some others. We want to thank all of the thousands of TUAW readers who took time to consider their favorite accessories and apps, nominate them for an award, and then vote in the competition. Without further ado, here's the full list of winners as well as our picks for the TUAW Best of 2011: Editor picks: 13" and 11" MacBook Air, 13" MacBook Pro Peripheral Sat, 07 Jan 2012 01:00:00 GMT http://www.tuaw.com/2012/01/06/tuaw-best-of-2011-wrap-up-and-editor-picks/ TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.tuaw.com/2012/01/09/spotify-releases-spoton-radio-app-for-iphone/ Spotify is the über-popular music service that lets you stream a huge library of music to your computer. You can also use the service on your iPhone with a premium subscription, letting you either sync and listen to your own music, or stream Spotify's tracks straight to your mobile device wherever you happen to be. The service just recently opened up an API for app developers, and a new app called SpotON Radio is one of the first to take full advantage of it. Unfortunately, it requires a premium Spotify subscription to work, but if you have one of those already, SpotON will let you listen to Internet radio stations, your own Spotify playlists, or any other music Spotify offers. The app uses "music intelligence" from Echo Nest for recommendations, and as you can see above, the display is clean and clear, which is always nice.
