Easily check for App Store updates in iTunes
Instead of mousing to the ‘Check For Updates’ text button at the bottom of the Apps section of iTunes 10, you can simply hit ⌘-R to run the check.
Strangely, I cannot find this command anywhere iTunes’ menu system besides the main app menu, but that’s for checking on iTunes updates, not app updates. Plus, ⌘-R is set for the Store > Reload Page command, but then, only when you’re in the store; it’s grayed out when viewing your apps.
The times I had to manually hit the refresh button!
Great tip.
basic reading comprehension
This translates into: “Warning!!! App not usable without online registration. Stay away!”
To post a review so stupid, this buyer of Second Gear’s iOS application Elements, must’ve ignored/misunderstood the title,

the description

and the requirements
- iPhone or iPod Touch running iOS 4
- iPad running iOS 3.2

I reported this review as stupid.
This is a quick preview of Camera+ version 1.2 for the iPhone.
The app, which came into being through a collaboration of the talented photographer Lisa Bettany and the programming geniuses of tap tap tap, is the best one I’ve used so far and now it’s being improved even further:
The video shows the ability to separately set the focus and the exposure of a shot on the iPhone. As of right now, the point of focus, is also used to determine the exposure of the scene, which can be detrimental sometimes.
To some it may look like overkill to add a feature like this to something that is essentially a snapshot camera, but to me it is very welcome.
