FWIW, we have an app that supports Pebble (mentioned in the app, on our website, but not in the iTunes description text) and we had an update approved today. Though our last few two or three releases have also contained Apple Watch support

Ah, that makes more sense, thanks. I wonder how easily the firmware can be downgraded (or downgraded) to remove that behaviour. Though as noted in the sibling thread, it's more likely easier to crop the video output.

I wonder how this is supposed to help Sky identify who the source is — it's a satellite broadcast, so they presumably can't overlay a different number on the screen for different subscribers?

The sticker-on-screen hack seems a bit easy to detect. I've always wondered why there isn't (or maybe there is?) a black market for a wee box that takes the Sky box video output and overlays a pint glass icon in the corner. But I

Sure, and Google normally does disable iframing — the particular URL that com.google frames is configured to not serve the X-Frame-Options HTTP, allowing this trick to work. Clicking "Sign In" breaks out of the frame (target="

The question is: what is "CriOS"? Edit: Ah, it seems to be used in the "Chrome for iOS" user agent string. Weird that it can't handle iframes(?). Or what's the reason for the JS on com.google that redirects onl

I've unfortunately had the same experience with hosted JIRA. If there should be one place in the world where JIRA runs quickly, it should be on Atlassian's own hosting platform, yet I continue to be amazed at how slow it can be.
