The iOS 8.4 software update will feature a new Music app and likely a new Apple streaming music service dubbed ‘Apple Music’.Apple had originally planned to release iOS 8.4 following the WWDC Keynote on June 8th, but we’ve heard that it’s currently planning to release it during the last week of June. As we also first reported, the new services will be available as a new app on Android for non-iPhones. The new services will likely also be available on the new Apple TV. Apple is not yet readying a version of the new services for other platforms, like Windows Phone, due to their low marketshare.Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here

The TaiG jailbreak team has revealed that it does not plan to release an iOS 8.3 or iOS 8.4 jailbreak but rather will focus on jailbreak iOS 9.In an interview with iDigitalTimes, Ray Xie said, “We currently haven’t any plans to release a jailbreak prior to iOS 9.”When asked about the Apple Watch, Xie said that “We have no plan to jailbreak Apple Watch at this time. Apple Watch is a new product. We don’t know too much about its users’ demands. What’s more, we are not quite clear about whether it is suitable or necessary to jailbreak an Apple watch. Time will tell all that.”Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here
The Pangu Team has demonstrated a jailbreak of iOS 8.3 at the MOSEC security conference in Shanghai, according to Tools4Hack.The report is in Japanese and quite difficult to translate; however, it appears as though the reporter is hopeful that we could see the team release a jailbreak once iOS 8.4 drops.“If I had to take a guess, since the pangu team is the kind of team to put out jail break tools pretty quickly, depending on the development situation. once ios8.4 is released, they should definitely have a jail break in a couple of days.”Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here

Apple is planning to reduce the 30% cut it takes from media companies on subscriptions, reports the Financial Times.The iPhone maker is discussing new commercial terms with media companies, people familiar with the matter said, to change the 70/30 “Apple tax” pioneered by Steve Jobs when its late founder launched the iTunes music store in 2003.The improved terms which are being discussed with media companies would apply to revamped Apple platforms such as its long anticipated TV update and forthcoming changes to Newsstand, its gateway to digital newspapers and magazines, rather than to its existing App Store terms, which will remain the same for developers, according to people close to the discussions.Talk of the change in economics comes as Apple is planning to launch a new Apple Music streaming service and as it’s in negotiations for a web TV service which would launch on a new Apple TV.Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here
Camera+ co-founder Lisa Bettany and developers Scott Meinzer and Karl von Randow have released a new ‘Vee’ video app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.Create beautiful videos on your iPhone or iPad with an entirely new way to shoot, edit and share. Introducing Vee.“The important thing about (Vee) is it combines shooting video and editing in one seamless process,” Bettany tells BGR. “There are a lot of apps for editing video, a lot for shooting video, but we wanted to combine that in one place. You can work on a video project and add clips to it from the same screen without losing your place. Similar to Camera+, it gives people the ability to be creative and create more of a story, versus here’s a 5-second clip of something.”Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here
