Is there an app that lets you post to Twitter and Facebook simultaneously? TweetDeck USED to support this, but of course, Twitter shuttered the Facebook features in a hurry when it bought out the app.

TweetDeck USED to support this, but of course, Twitter shuttered the Facebook features in a hurry when it bought out the app. You can link your Twitter account so that anything you post on Twitter via any app will repost to Facebook. I can't remember exactly how, but I think it was from the Twitter.com settings.

Going with IFTTT for now, but what I was hoping for was a native app that can replace TweetDeck. Ah well...

IFTTT works in the "background" in the sense that you can set up the rule then delete the app and just let it do its thing.

If you do have an app that refuses to show up on your iPad when searching that may be the culprit, dig a little online to verify because usually these exceptions have lots of people griping about them.

I've been hesitant to buy AVPlayerHD, mostly because of its stupid name, but I'm really impressed. I wasted so much time converting videos with Subler and Handbrake before, but AVPlayer has played every random internet file I've thrown at it. The only problem I've had is audio getting slightly out of sync with AC3 files, but there's an alignment feature too.

I just discovered Seamless, which is an iOS and Mac app which will fade out what's playing on your iOS device and fade it in on your Mac's iTunes seamlessly, or vice versa... that is, if it worked. It's completely nonfunctional on iOS7 and doesn't look like it's going to be fixed according to the developer's blog. I'm really surprised that this seems to be the only app that does this but I haven't found any others, do any exist?

yo what are some pro driving apps? poo poo like finding places to park (https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/aa-parking/id365260102?mt=8 is the first one i could find, lmao @ theres like 10 rows of lovely parking games before any real actual apps. gg) and some sort of petrol sharing app? so you can figure out how much friends owe you for petrol or whatever based on mileage. i guess one for local petrol prices would be good too actually

VLC still won't do MKVs with AC2 audio. Then there's the odd non-h264 video that I had been chugging through Handbrake. I'd much rather have one player I can drop just about anything into and know it will play. It really sucked loading the iPad up with video for a long trip, then getting on the plane and realizing half the files played without sound in VLC.

I'd much rather have one player I can drop just about anything into and know it will play. I can't recall if it was AC2 audio or something else (commonly used) but the way I got around that was setting the iPad's clock to something outside of the USA but still in the same time zone. (Vancouver for me) Magically, a ton of my MKV's all had sound again. [edit] to your comment about just loading it up and knowing it will play with AVPLAYERHD. People swore by AVPlayerHD that it would play anything and then I tried it and it worked ok but I had (if I had to put a number on it) more than 60% of the files I tried had some kind of issue or another. Slow playback, glitches, skips, sound issues...) I found it to not be reliable either.

I've been using Drafts for a few days now and I'm in love with it. It's a note taking app that lets you share to everything imaginable including Day One (journal app), Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Evernote, SMS, you name it. And you can export your notes to Dropbox too. Just thought I'd mention it here in case you guys didn't know about it. I'm writing a comic so I take notes and stuff all the time and while I use Evernote to store everything, Drafts is just quicker to get to since it opens on a new note and I can just write something down and forget about it. e: here's a list of some of the stuff it can do: http://actions.agiletortoise.com/draft_actions

So I just picked up an iPad, is there a swipe enabled keyboard app out there? I'm so used to it on my not-apple phone that having to hunt and peck this poo poo out on a touch screen is a little disorienting.

While I agree that iOS should be more open, if you know how to type on a PC or Mac, the iOS keyboard is just fine.

I never really cared for getsure typing, but I think Apple could at least do something like Switftkey where it reads your mail/social networks/blog/texts to improve predictions. The iOS keyboard is downright primitive compared to Swiftkey. I'm bilingual and I really miss it because it would just figure out what language I was writing in and adjust everything automatically, spelling, predictions, everything. In iOS I have to manually switch keyboards and it sucks.

noirstronaut posted:iOS should/does do it automatically. Doesn't do this on noirstronaut posted:iOS should/does do it automatically. It only does that in iMessage. Swiftkey does it system wide in every app. Not only that, it can tell if I start typing in another language and switches keyboards automatically. For example if I'm posting on Facebook and I write a word in Portuguese, it understands that it's not English and adjusts. iOS will just try to autocorrect Portuguese words to English. It blows.

When I view an e-mail in the default Mail app and delete it, it jumps to the next e-mail message automatically, thus marking it as unread. Is there a way to have mail just show the "no message selected"-screen after deleting something? (When you're not viewing the mail you're deleting, i.e. when swipe-deleting with another or no message open, it doesn't jump to then next message, but always selecting the next message you want to read before deleting something isn't practical at all.) Edit: or is there an app that does this? If it could also somehow be able to show multiple unread e-mail badges for different accounts on the same app icon, that'd be entirely awesome, but I'm fairly sure iOS doesn't allow that.
