Twitter is Reportedly Making a Periscope App for the New Apple TV

Twitter is developing a Periscope app for the new Apple TV, reports TechCrunch. The app will allow users to watch livestreams broadcasted from the Periscope app on their televisions.Though we can’t confirm the exact functionality of the app, it’s likely to be focused on watching streams. Periscope made videos viewable on the web in June without the ability to broadcast, and the Apple TV app could work similarly. Periscope was acquired by Twitter in January and launched the mobile, ephemeral live-streaming app in April. It now has over 10 million registered users and sees 40 years of watch time per day, its CEO Kayvon Beykpour recently said on a stream.TechCrunch says it doesn’t have a specific unveiling or launch date for the app but it might be previewed as part of the new Apple TV unveiling tomorrow.Share Article:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Email,   Reddit,   Digg,   Delicious,   StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Newsletter,   App Store,   YouTubeAdvertise Here

Pangu has posted some details on kernel vulnerabilities discovered in iOS 8.4.1’s AppleHDQGasGaugeControl that likely were used to demonstrate a jailbreak of the firmware.When auditing iOS kernel executable, we found that the code quality of com.apple.driver.AppleHDQGasGaugeControl is very bad. In this blog, we will disclose 3 vulnerabilities in this kernel extension on the latest public iOS (version 8.4.1). More importantly, one of these bugs is a perfect heap overflow vulnerability that allows us to defeat all kernel mitigations and gain code execution in the kernel, just by exploiting this single vulnerability.Unfortunately, the team has already confirmed that the vulnerabilities cannot be triggered inside the container sandbox and that the 2nd and the 3rd bugs are already fixed in iOS 9 beta 5.Share Article:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Email,   Reddit,   Digg,   Delicious,   StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Newsletter,   App Store,   YouTubeAdvertise Here

Steve Wozniak on Steve Jobs Film: ‘I Felt Like I Was Actually Watching Steve Jobs’

Steve Wozniak has some high praise for the just premiered Steve Jobs film starring Michael Fassbender, reports Deadline. Early reviews of the film have called it ‘Brilliant, Infuriating and Richly Unconventional’.When I caught up with him Wozniak told me that, unlike the Jobs biopic with Ashton Kutcher, this one is totally authentic. “I saw a rough cut and I felt like I was actually watching Steve Jobs and the others (including Rogen’s dead-on portrayal of Wozniak), not actors playing them, I give full credit to Danny Boyle and Aaron Sorkin for getting it so right,” he enthusiastically told me. Of all the actors in the film he thinks Winslet might be the most likely to garner awards attention. I would add Fassbender to that list for sure. It’s a dazzling display of acting and he is almost never off the screen.The movie is set to hit theaters on October 9th. Hit the link below to read Deadline’s thoughts on the film.Share Article:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Email,   Reddit,   Digg,   Delicious,   StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Newsletter,   App Store,   YouTubeAdvertise Here
