iOS 7 beta 6 now available to developers

IOS 7 beta 6 appeared unexpectedly for developers today. The surprisingly small update is being said to be a bug fix as it is only around 13MB large. Beta 6 fixes an "issue with iTunes in the Cloud, where some purchases may download or play unexpected items." IOS 7 beta builds should continue to ramp up as the Fall release date of the new OS and new devices comes closer.

Canadian made Facts of Life App now available for iPad

 

The Facts Of Life is a new application designed to help parents answer difficult questions their children may have about Sexual Health.
Sexual Education can be a very confusing and a hard topic to breach. This app will help parents and children discuss sexual education in a fun, wholesome, and appropriate way.
The app was launched by a well known Registered Psychologist, Dr. Jillian Roberts, who specializes in Child and Adolescent Psychology. She has helped support the psycho-social development of hundreds children in her
psychological practice in Victoria BC, Canada. Dr. Roberts is not only a psychologist, but also the devoted mother of three children.
As with most parents, she wants her children’s knowledge to come from her - not from classmates, TV, or the Internet. And this is why Dr. Roberts decided to invent this one of its kind Sexual Education App for children; the appis age appropriate with “just enough” information for your kids to understand Sexual Health.
