I didn't care for any others save one, so it was worth a shot even though there's a ton of them.

It seems to be smartly batched with other network fetches. I did some tests using a local notification to let me know when it occurred, and it happened most often when sending an app into the background or finishing up another network task.

I've got a few apps built using this API, so I can chime in. It is definitely based on usage patterns--the more you use a particular app, the more often it will refresh. It's also certainly based on battery life at the time, but a

A shameless plug, but my app is brand new, free, and shows comments legibly. But the #1 feature: background refresh. It uses new APIs in iOS 7 to preload the front page before you open it. Pivit - https://itunes.apple.com/

Mine is free, and freshly rebuilt for iOS using Text Kit and background refresh. It's free and no in-apps: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pivit/id705715915

I'm attempting to solve this, at least for iOS devices. My technique is to collapse everything first. If you want to continue in that discussion, you tap to expand. I think it helps mitigate the need to comment on the top thread, and s

I was thinking this was going to be animated. Am I wrong, or did I miss something?

How might one submit an app to be included in this list? I have a few apps in review that are built from the ground up for iOS 7.

True. I suppose the answer is that it was not the goal of the app to be in the photo storage/memories business. Looking at ways to help with this use case though, such as letting you save your own images to your camera roll.

This is discussed at length in the article. It was found that having an expiration lets people worry less about getting the photo "right". Also, it's not about having another place to waste time living vicariously. Quite the

Yeah, I'd not calculated fees or licensing. But other than that I'd still expect the costs of employment to be the highest, by a very large margin. Even if you replaced the entire car yearly, salary is still a higher cost.

No, it's just conjecture, assuming some things. Have you ever taken a road trip? Was the cost of gas between fill-ups more than you were paid per day for your first job? Assuming you're not driving a Mercedes, is your monthly car

Very good point. The movement of goods, services, and people as well.

This makes perfect sense, and if I had money to invest in this market, I would. Self-driving cars coupled with such an infrastructure means a very profitable business in the not-too-distant future. The highest cost for taxis is not the cars

I've studied this a great deal, and developed a custom masonry type layout to mitigate the row/column bias. I believe it is a much more balanced layout than the article shows. Using it in Imagist, a paid app. Open to a few beta te

"That is why I may delete my Facebook account. And that is why you should too." We should also do something that you're not even certain you're going to do yourself?

I can't claim I'm the first, but it's the first I've seen, as I did extensive research before I wrote a line of code. Send a link if you have one. I'm interested. I think a lot of people are misunderstanding that I&
