Get it quick, Apple warns ‘Neato’ to pull keyboard from Notification Center or Else 
Apple has some pretty
blury guidelines for what can be in the Notification Center and what can’t. This has already caused a bit of confusion regarding
calculators in the NC and the late app-widget
Launcher. This has got to be frustrating for developers and users alike. I personally heard about Launcher too late as I was stuck on iOS 7.1.6 due to a jailbreak not being released yet for iOS 8, by the time I got wind it was already gone in the blaze.

‘Worms’ Franchise Celebrating its 19th Birthday with a Huge Sale! 
Originally launched on November 17th, 1995,
Team17\'s infamous
Worms franchise is celebrating its 19th birthday with a huge sale across many platforms including iOS, Mac, and Android. Despite the birthday being almost a week ago, the sale still appears to be continuing on in some places. As of right now we’re unsure how much longer these special discounts will last for, however, it doesn’t hurt to take a look just in case. Most games listed below are on sale for $0.99 with the exception of just a few, so if you have a couple bucks left in your iTunes account, now would be a good time to spend it.

‘Transynd’ Your Music Experience on Your iPhone Everyone has differing preferences for their music needs on their iDevices; some people are heavy audiophiles and have nothing but
FLACs in their iTunes, others do nothing but stream with Pandora or Spotify, and then there are people who are about in the middle like me. If you don’t need all of the functionality of the Music app then
Transcynd is for you! It’s currently $0.99 on the App Store but the developer, Darran Hall told me that he plans on making it free for the next update after he polishes a few features and squashes a bug or two. He’s a great guy and deserves the money so I suggest you go buy it!

Announcing the PocketFullOfApps Internship Program 
For a some time I’ve thrown around the idea of having an internship program for PocketFullOfApps, but never decided on anything until now. After some careful consideration and talking to the fellow team members, I’m proud to announce the PocketFullOfApps Internship Program where we will bring two interns
onto the team for two months. Those interns who we choose will have the opportunity to join a well established tech and gaming blog and reach a monthly audience of over 600,000 page views. This is a perfect opportunity for those who want to get a start in the tech blogging and writing world, but don’t know where to begin.
Sticky notes on your Lock Screen with ‘Sticky’ Sticky notes are a part of a lot of people’s lives; used for everything from jotting down tiny notes to managing large scale projects (if you do it right.) They are integrated into Mac OS X and there are several free programs for PC’s that offer the same functionality. Omitted from stock iOS for some reason, I can see why Apple might not want to include them on the iPhone but they surely have a home on the iPad. Sticky in Cydia on the ModMyi repo by
William Vabrinskas, will bring you this awesome functionality to your iPhone or iPad for just $0.99. I can’t recommend this tweak enough; it’s lightweight, feature filled and “just works”.

From a very young age, Yose had a foot in the door with computers and programing. He was learning BASIC in an upscale Indonesian primary school, playing around with DOS when he was around six years old and getting addicted to Starcraft map editors circa 2000. You could say that he was a computer guy from the start. After dropping the Starcraft maps and learning some Flash and Actionscript he dropped out of his PhD and started his journey to Jormy Appstudio. Nintype is short for ninja-type and was uploaded as "nin" for a test when it was still in Cydia and it sort of stuck.
