What one essentially does with a smartphone, especially an iPhone, is commit. One commits to taking care of the phone and commits to using it properly. Although iOS 8 is a great upgrade with new features and lots of customizability (compared to iOS 7), there are some things that users might want to change. After all, an iPhone isn’t an iPhone without a ton of helpful apps. There are quite a few must have iPhone 6 apps out there, some paid, some free, some filled with IAPs. One of the essential apps that we’ve found improves any iPhone user’s experience is iTransfer, a filesharing app. File sharing is especially difficult when it comes to the iPhone and iOS because of the ecosystem that Apple has in place. When sharing with Android users, iOS users are rather constricted and forced to turn to third-party apps in order to conduct their business easily and safely.

iTransfer is a must have iPhone 6 app for anybody who likes to share their files, such as photos, music, videos, messages or anything else you can think of. Kids can share their schedules, so can parents, and friends can share their experiences with each other. Sharing is the base of software right now, as we’re seeing more and more people and companies turn to social media instead of classic advertising because of the power-sharing truly has in an online community. Which is why iTransfer can be an important part of your daily doings that involve an iPhone, whatever model it may be.

What is iTransfer and why would you want it? 

iTransfer, as said above, is a file sharing tool. What sets this utility apart from other alternatives is its design, features and price, which is rather affordable. The full license for the Windows version of iTransfer costs just $19.95, which is ok to pay for a comprehensive sharing tool that can truly influence the way in which we interact with our gadgets. Although there are quite a few free options out there, the benefits of buying a license for iTransfer (or any other software from Leawo or others, for that matter) is support. When you have a license, you get support, and Leawo has a great support team that’s ready to help you out if you run into trouble.

iTransfer can be used on any Windows, Mac or iOS device to facilitate file sharing between all of them. There’s a dedicated Mac version available, which goes for the same price as the Windows version. iTransfer caters to all types of Apple users, such as those who live within the Apple ecosystem, owning iPads, iPhones and Macs but also to those who mix things up a bit and use iOS mobile devices and Windows computers. With iTransfer users can share any type of files between these gadgets, so sharing photos from an iPhone 6 to an iPad Air 2, to a Windows 8.1 PC, to a MacBook or to another iPhone is made easy. With the addition of the new iPod Touch and co. line-up to the 2015 portfolio of Apple products, filesharing programs like iTransfer are getting more and more attention.

In order to transfer files from an iPhone to a PC using iTransfer, there is no need to sync with iTunes and as such the software becomes a good alternative to iTunes filesharing. The software requires iOS 4.2 in order to work, which means all Apple iOS devices will work with it, which adds to the pull of the app. iPhone 4 users, as well as iPhone 6 users will be equally pleased with what iTransfer can actually do. Moreover, iTransfer lets you share everything but SMS messages: that includes contact lists, ebooks, camera rolls, videos, music, photos, pdfs and other files, too. The software can be an effective backup tool, saving you the separate investment in a backup tool.

While using iTransfer, the app’s algorithm is set to store the files that you share, which means it also works as a cloud platform. You don’t need to import everything that you want to share to the iTransfer app, because it does it automatically, saving you the struggle. You can look at it as an automatic backup prep. If iTransfer had cloud storage options, it would have been an even more comprehensive service than it is now. But the way it is is fine for a filesharing app, because it does have its benefits.

With iTransfer, you can store anything on your devices: no restrictions, regardless of what type of files your iPhone supports or not. Essentially, with the help of iTransfer, your iPhone, iPad, iPod work like flash drives, which means you can access files easily and without any restrictions. The app also has its own file and media management system, which once again saves you the hassle of installing file managers on your phone. With iTransfer, users can access and create playlists in iTunes or through their device, import media and manage music. To find out how to manage iTransfer, you can check out the tutorial video below or you can check out the guide Leawo provides. If you are a winner of this giveaway, refer back to this article and you will find everything you need in order to get the most out of your license.

iTransfer works like a full-on file management system and comes with all the management functions that you are used to on Windows and Mac. You can do whatever you like with the files on your iPhone, iPad, iPod or iTunes and you can easily bypass the syncing process of iTunes with the software. Moreover, you can easily search in your media library and use filters to find exactly what you want. Overall, while iTransfer is not an innovative software, it is a cheap alternative to other filesharing programs. Since it’s easy to install and easy to use, and the free trial is already comprehensive, I would definitely suggest trying it out.

In my time of using iTransfer, I haven’t encountered any bugs or issues with the software. The iPhone and iPad that I used iTransfer with handled everything well and didn’t lose any data. By using iTransfer, I actually saved some time browsing through my library and trying to find what I was looking for in iTunes. Also, when I was left without Wi-Fi for a couple of days, I found iTransfer to be the best way in which I could get content on my iPhone without using a data connection and instead using my PC.

Check out the trial version of iTransfer and let us know what you think! Is such a software necessary in the modern world or do we live in the cloud already? Let us know how the app works for you and if you like it, don’t forget to leave a comment below for a chance to win one of the 10 licenses that we have to offer. Good luck to everyone and thanks for participating! Winners are encouraged to leave a review for iTransfer, too, but we’ll remind you guys of that later! We will announce the winners on August 21! Until then, stay tuned!

One of Apple’s top mini-LED suppliers claims that while the company plans to switch to OLED displays for its iPad and MacBook line in the upcoming years, demand for displays in consumer products is declining while demand for mini-LED in other applications is increasing.

According to a recent report from DigiTimes, the demand for mini-LED displays for consumer electronics devices is declining, but it is anticipated that demand for mini-LED displays for dashboards and vehicle displays will increase in 2023. Epistar, which has been supplying mini-LED displays to Apple for some time, is one company that has made this claim.

The creation of particular kinds of OLED screens that Apple intends to utilize in next iPad Pro models, according to a report published last week, is now Samsung’s top priority. The first iPad Pro with an OLED panel, which Apple is rumored to introduce in 2024, has prompted mini-LED vendors to consider alternate applications for their screens, according to DigiTimes.

In 2024, Apple is also expected to release a 13-inch MacBook Air with an OLED display in addition to an OLED iPad Pro. According to reputable display analyst Ross Young, Apple is exploring adopting an OLED panel in a planned update to the iPhone SE but is torn between employing an LCD or OLED display.

In an effort to assist customers get the most out of their devices and teach new iPhone users some features and tips they may not have previously known about, Apple recently provided ten helpful tips and techniques for iPhone users.

Apple revealed ten tips and techniques for the new features in iOS 16 in a video on its Apple Support channel, including the ability to choose and lift subjects out of images and the newly revamped and customisable Lock Screen. As people get used to their new iPhones, the short film, which is barely six minutes long, was posted on Christmas Day.

  1. If you tap and hold on a subject inside of a photo in the Photos app on ‌iOS 16‌, you can lift the subject from the photo and place it into another app.
  2. The new Lock Screen on ‌iOS 16‌ allows users to customize different elements, including the color and style of the time and date, add widgets, and more.
  3. Within Settings -> Wi-Fi, you can select a saved Wi-Fi access point to discover and copy and paste its password.
  4. If you often write the same thing time and time again, such as your email or address, you can create a text replacement within Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Text Replacement.
  5. If you’re running low on battery or want to save some battery life when you won’t have access to a charger, you can add the Low Power Mode toggle to Control Center for easy access. Head into Settings -> Control Center and add it to the list of Included Controls.
  6. If you want to share or move multiple photos into another app, simply tap and hold on a photo, move it away, and proceed to tap on the other photos. You’ll then be able to drag and drop all of the photos into other apps or places in iOS.
  7. If you want to quickly open the camera, tap and hold on the Camera shortcut in the bottom right-hand corner of your ‌iPhone‌’s Lock Screen.
  8. With iOS 15 and later, you can now use Live Text to automatically translate text in the camera app or inside of a photo. In the camera app, point the camera to some text and tap on the Live Text that appears in the right-hand corner, then select translate in the options shown. This can also work for photos already taken in the ‌Photos‌ app.
  9. Using the Notes app, you can easily scan a piece of paper and create a digital copy of it. The Notes app will automatically properly crop and edit the image so the document appears legible with no glare.
  10. If you’re curious about what your first photo is in your photo library, you can easily discover it with one tap. In the ‌Photos‌ app, simply tap on the top edge of your ‌iPhone‌ to jump to the first photo in any specific library, album, or search result.

Republican lawmakers and Apple CEO Tim Cook meet in Washington

Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, is traveling to Washington, D.C., to meet with Republican lawmakers who will probably lead committees that regulate the tech sector.
Republican representatives Jim Jordan of Ohio, Darrel Issa of California, and Cathy McMorris Rogers of Washington are among those with whom Cook has booked meetings.

The meetings were probably planned several weeks, if not months, beforehand. Top conservatives have criticized Apple since the beginning, and many of them have joined with Twitter CEO Elon Musk in their recent dispute with Apple.

Jordan has publicly expressed his support for Elon Musk, as Bloomberg notes.

When the GOP wins over the House in 2023, Jordan is also set to serve as chair of the House Judiciary Committee. The House Energy and Commerce Committee’s chairman is most likely to be McMorris Rodgers.

They both will play a key role in developing the GOP’s technology policy agenda for 2023.

What is particularly on the agenda is unclear. Even when he is not called to testify about big tech, Cook travels to Washington, DC, on several occasions each year.
