Reminders on the iPhone are limited to daily reminders, with no real option to "snooze" an active alert. If you're interested in getting multiple reminders for a task on the list until it's marked complete, then the RemindMeAgain iOS tweak might fit the bill.

With RemindMeAgain installed, iOS will keep reminding you that a task is outstanding based on a pre-set interval of time. Until the task is marked complete, the tweak will make sure that the Reminders app continues to remind. Essentially, RemindMeAgain functions as a snooze button for the Reminders app.

Shortcuts save time, especially when navigating a deep menu structure such as the iOS settings menu. Pinnacle is a jailbreak tweak that simplifies navigation of these menus by providing a shortcut to the top level menu.

Not only this, but you can configure Pinnacle to provide a history of all the menu pages previously visited, which makes it simple to jump back to a specific page needed. Normally, navigating through Settings requires flipping back and forth though several separate pages of information. With Pinnacle installed you can simply press and hold on the back button and you'll automatically be returned to the top level menu page.

Stories of unsupervised kids racking up thousands of dollars worth of in-app purchases on their parent's credit cards are as old as the App Store, but no matter what Apple does the problem won't seem to go away. Recent headlines about a child buying $1,000 worth of digital donuts to feed Homer Simpson while playing an iOS game, have prompted the U.K.'s Office of Fair Trading to launch an investigation into apps targeting children. Who is ultimately responsible for these purchases is a matter of public debate, but here is how parents can protect themselves in the meantime.

Here's how to disable in-app purchases on iOS devices: Navigate to Settings -> General -> Restrictions. You will be prompted to create a password if you haven't already done so (You'll have to enter it twice). Once your password is set, tap Enable Restrictions at the top of your screen. Scroll down to the Allowed Content section, and tap the In-App Purchases On/Off toggle.

Endless Road from Chillingo Ltd is now free for a limited time. The driving game is a sleek looking endless runner where players must drive for their lives to avoid the crumbling road behind them. Like most endless runner games, players must avoid various obstacles while collecting coins, and power-ups. The coins can then be used in the "garage" to buy upgrades and new cars.

Endless Road avoids being another run of the mill endless runners thanks to its isometric landscapes, clean looking graphics, and fun soundtrack. The game also features leader board support, 48 unique challenges, and the ability to compete with Facebook friends in weekly tournaments. There are also plenty of power-ups, weapons and maps to unlock to keep you busy.

Just a quick reminder, the iPhone 4, 4S and 5 are now officially available from T-Mobile. New and old T-Mobile customers can now buy an iPhone from retail stores and online at T-Mobile.com. Don't forget, the iPhone 5 from T-Mobile is sold at full price at $100 down plus 24 monthly installments of $20. The $20 payments are added on top of your monthly service charges. However, there is no annual contract, and the device is $70 less than buying an unlocked model directly from Apple.

iPhones from T-Mobile are locked, meaning you will need T-Mobile to unlock the device if you decided to switch carriers. You will also be required to pay off any remaining balance for the device if you choose to stop using T-Mobile before the 24 months are over. The plus side of buying an unsubsidized phone is it allows you to upgrade your device at anytime, and you won't be locked into a two-year carrier contract.
