If you have been waiting for a dynamic Weather app icon for eons and wondering why Apple has never done it, especially since they just came out with an updating Clock icon for iOS 7, your wait is over. Developer Hamza Sood, who is known for his SiriToggles package, beat Apple to it with the aptly named LiveWeatherIcon tweak. Although it is only a minor detail it is yet another layer of customization that adds depth to the overall user experience.

If you are jailbroken and tired of the old, boring, static Weather app icon, you might want to give the LiveWeatherIcon tweak a try. The tweak brings life to the Weather app by animating the icon to reflect the current weather conditions - stormy weather outside translates to a stormy icon and so on. It continuously updates so it

At CES 2014 the global leader in thermal imaging technology, FLIR Systems Inc., unveiled the first personal thermal imaging device in the form of an iPhone case called the FLIR ONE. The FLIR ONE case is specifically designed for the iPhone 5 and 5s, and is the first device of its kind aimed at the consumer market.

The case will allow users to see the infrared spectrum, which has wavelengths longer than those of the visible spectrum. This will allow consumers to see heat signatures of people, animals and anything else that gives off heat from up to 100 feet away. The technology was originally developed for military night vision applications but has spread to other areas in recent years. Thermal imagery is now

Apple released iOS 7.1 beta 3 to developers on Tuesday. According to p0sixspwn creator iH8sn0w, the new release does not break the evad3rs latest jailbreak, but an unofficial version of evasi0n7 was needed to jailbreak the new beta. You can download that version here, but remember this tool was not released or sanctioned by the evad3rs and should be used with caution.

It is also a safe bet that Apple will patch evasi0n7 very soon, which means this could be the last chance users have to upgrade to iOS 7 and jailbreak their phones. Users still running iOS 6 will not be able to jailbreak once Apple closes the exploit, and there is a slim chance a new jailbreak will be released for any future versions of iOS 7.

It has been a busy few days for the Deutsche Telekom-owned T-Mobile. The Uncarrier recently paid $2.37 billion for blocks of Verizon Wireless' 700MHz spectrum, and its own CEO John Legere was kicked out of AT&T's CES party on Tuesday. Legere also took to Twitter to accuse AT&T of copying T-Mobile, and he released a statement in response to AT&T's new plan to pay T-Mobile customers $450 worth of credit to switch carriers.

"This is a desperate move by AT&T on the heels of what must have been a terrible Q4 and holiday for them. I’m flattered that we have made them so uncomfortable! We used AT&T’s cash to build a far superior network and added Un-carrier moves to take tons of their customers – and now they want to bribe them back!"

"Consumers won’t be fooled…nothing has changed; customers will still feel the same old pain that AT&T is famous for. Just wait until CES to hear what pain points we are eliminating next.

Apple announced today that its 2013 App Store sales topped a staggering $10 billion, with $1 billion coming in December alone. That number reflects the nearly 3 billion apps that iOS users downloaded over the course of the month, making it the App Store's most successful month ever.

Today's press release also noted that app developers have earned in the neighborhood of $15 billion since the App Store's inception. Unsurprisingly, some of the most popular apps of the year included Candy Crush Saga, Puzzles & Dragons, Minecraft, QuizUp and Clumsy Ninja. Some came as surprise successes - Ellen DeGeneres' Heads Up, ProtoGeo’s Moves, Simon Filip’s Afterlight and Kevin
