ProTube, it's everything the stock YouTube app should be. But you gotta be jailbroken.

Yeah, there's a thread about it: http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=483287
Shit sucks.
Mail on iPad will continue to be subpar for the foreseeable future.
Don't worry, Outlook for iOS is coming and will save us all from the tragedy that the iOS mail.app is.
It's better quality. I've done comparisons between the youtube app and the mobile site and it's noticeably sharper
Whoa, didn't even know you could get Empire here on Newsstand. Awesome
Can anyone please recommend a good app for a trip away?
For example I may want a selection of beaches I'd like to visit, preferably with a picture of each and a link
Then I may want places to eat with a location and maybe a link
Then general places I'd like to visit, again with a location/link
Not sure if I'm asking for a lot, but I cannot find anything even remotely useful for this. Pocket/Readability are naff for it, and Evernote has a pretty poor interface, and no offline support unless you pay a hefty monthly fee. :/

Tripadvisor is pretty good.
Does iCloud syncing in iCab Mobile work for anyone? When I exported my bookmarks on the iPad and attempted to import them on the iPhone, it said there were no files to sync in iCloud. After several attempts of exporting/importing and synchronizing, they appeared on my iPhone. I added a new bookmark on the iPad, but it doesn't appear on the phone.
Tab syncing doesn't work altogether.

Readdle having a big sale. Really well designed apps. I can vouch for Scanner Pro. I want to pick up one of the PDF readers, but I'm not sure the difference between the two.

I really hope the next update to Reeder fixes Fever syncing. It takes forever to sync and doesn't always work.
Please pardon my ignorance, but how does Scanner Pro improve over simply taking a photo then sharing it?
(tempted to take the plunge anyway, but the fact I have a decent wireless scanner at home I still haven't setup yet is stopping me from spending any more money on this, no matter how little!)

if its anything like jot pro (or whatever that's called that I own); you take a photo of a print (normally b+W); it bumps up the contrast automatically so white is white and black is black; so its easier to read. Works a treat and you can export as PDF

So...I don't really get how notification center works. NY Times app kept spamming me Olympic results like jerks so I said, perfect -- time to silence them with notification center! Go in, turn off some stuff (not even sure what the options are referring to, but I turn them all off). Still get notifications. Remove NY Times from notification center entirely. Still get notifications. So, I had to wind up deleting the app. Is there any way to control notifications? App itself does not seem to have any controls, and I don't even know what notification center is supposed to be controlling but it doesn't appear to have the ability to silence much of anything.
Notification centre is just the list of alerts you get when you pull down from the top of the screen. If you want to kill the other alerts you need to change the middle section to none (alerts/banners I think are the other options) and also turn off sounds and show in lock screen.
Basically, if you want to silence it completely then disable everything for the app in the notification settings. If it's still noisy, it's probably an issue with the app. :/
Lots of upload options (dropbox, google, etc), scans documents as PDFs, auto locates the borders and crops, has a variety of page sizes, and it auto adjusts the contrast and brightness.

so I loved Notability on iPad but is there anything similar on iPhone/iPod touch?

nevermind, just saw where they said they were going to work on an iPhone/iPod touch version.
FreeMyApps is considering paying people $1.06 to buy $0.99 apps (basically a way for developers to push up their paid rankings):

Interesting story on the compromises Google had to make for Chrome here: http://www.chromestory.com/2012/07/7-compromises-google-made-to-put-chrome-on-iphone-and-ipad/
God damn Apple.

The default web browser limitation is an issue. It is pointless. People should be given the option without jailbreaking. It is ridiculous
if you jailbreak your device - and you should, it's so darn easy at this point - you can buy a .99 package that will enable Apple's Nitro engine in any app you wish, including Chrome. even Facebook feels nearly like a native app once it's allowed to use Nitro.
Chrome feels much nimbler in javascript-rich sites with this enabled.
I'll probably jailbreak right after 6.0. Seems pointless to do it now.
Name and repo? How about one to change the default browser.
Genius Scan is just as good!
No iPad app.
It runs on iPad.
Anyways, it's what I've always used, and I've been pretty happy with it.
It's what I was using. I think this is better, but that might be because I am a snob who hates blown up apps.

shopping scanners and the likes suck in comparison to shopsavvy, thats the best scanning, shopping app on the app store
Well, let me know how it goes. Mainly if it autodetects the page better than Genius Scan - my only real annoyance with it.
Hey everyone. Look at this post to see a user who shits on apps without even looking at them to see what they can do. Well done.
the fuck are you talking about?
No
Yes
good luck with that
Nitrous; BigBoss repo
Browser Changer; BigBoss repo
This period is usually the best time to jailbreak
Expecting a jalibreak right after a new point iOS release is optimistic. Even more optimistic is expecting a new tweak to be functioning right away.

I'm on a streak:
I buy Downcast -> Apple releases Podcasts app (after the update it's good enough for my limited use)
I buy Sparrow -> Google buys Sparrow
So what app should I buy next?
Yup, Downcast is the best. But try Apple's "Podcasts" app first to see if that has enough options for you. And if you aren't like me and check out some podcast that shouldn't even exist anymore you won't run into any problems either.
Edit: Heh, for the record, I just found a way to remove "stuck" podcasts over the Settings app. If Apple only added a download list and made it more stable/faster it'd be perfectly fine for most people.

Doesn't cover the tax here, no sale.
Joking, calm down, I've spent more on iOS and Mac apps this year than virtually everyone here, I'd wager. I may have a problem.
