VLC media player for iOS is back in the app store after being removed after the release of iOS 8 last fall. This new version has been optimized to play well with the iPhone 6 and 6 plus and iOS 8 in general. I have used VLC for many years on my windows and OSX machines as a great way to watch many video formats not support by stock out of the box capabilities.

When it comes to VLC’s use for iPhones and iPads it is no different, VLC allows you to watch more media types on your iOS device. File types like MKV, DivX and AVI files are all supported. You’re also able to use the VLC app to stream videos and make use of those handy subtitles.

VLC has announced it will release another version soon, the new version 3.0 is said to support use as a google chromecast streaming device. Hopefully this will come sooner than later for VLC as the race for domination in the media streaming device arena is well underway.

A brand new iPhone app has just hit the app store, and it’s called “Be My Eyes”. This is really unlike any other app, you don’t fling birds or check in on your friends. Be My Eyes is a unique and free app developed to help the blind. It takes a function of the iPhone we have taken for granted(the camera/live streaming) and provides a helpful tool to those in need.

Be My Eyes allows a blind person to request assistance for a daily task or challenge. The requester simply sends out a request via the app, then one of the thousands of volunteers and counting that have installed and singed up for the app help guide the person in need. It creates a live video stream with the blind person needing assistance so that you may help them with their task. This could be anything from helping them navigate a cross walk to helping someone find the AA batteries in electronics. The blind person hears the instructions via the iPhone feature Voiceover. Currently this is only an options for iPhones 4s or newer and only for iOS 7x or newer, currently not available for android.

To me this is an excellent way to not only do a good deed but help make someone else’s life a little easier. My request for those who do plan on using the service or volunteering is simple, please don’t let this turn into a chat roulette situation, this is a noble purpose and cause that can make a real positive difference for tens of thousands of people . With that said there have been systems put inplace to help limit misuse.

So if you are like me and want to help someone out even just a few times a month get the app by clicking her to go directly to the app store page.

I feel this usually happens every few months, it can be a pain to have to go through and clear caches, cookies, log files and all the other junk manually. So for this task I recommend the iCleaner tweak that is available in the cydia app store.

Currently it is compatible with iOS versions 4x-8x so you should be covered. The main purpose of this app is to clean that pesky other section that gets filled up with junk you don’t need. iCleaner provides a lot of ways to strip down the fat on multiple parts of your device.

Main functions of the app:

  • Remove Message Attachments
  • Clear Safari Browsing data, cache, cookies ect.
  • Delete App Caches and unneeded files
  • Clean up log, cache and temporary files
  • Remove unneeded keywords and voice control languages
  • Remove unused dependencies
  • Remove downloaded ios update files

    • These are just the primary functions of iCleaner, the app itself has even more options and abilities. In order to download this app you will need your device jailbroken with the cydia app store installed.

    Not sure what jailbreaking is, find out here. Already familiar with jailbreaking but haven’t done it yet? Jailbreak it now here.
