IPhone App: Snappli. Is it for real? Is it safe?

I recently exceeded my Verizon 2Gig data limit, (2.001 Gig), so I went looking for a data monitor App.
Way down the list was "Snappli" and it sounded different and interesting.
Just started using it and it seems to be working, but..... I know nothing about it.
How does it work? Is it safe, (security, privacy, battery hog, Etc.)?
I'm streaming music now at what Snappli says is a 1/3 reduction in data. What am I missing here?
BTW Verizon refunded the $10.00 charge when I complained. That was an effective rate of $10,000/Gig.

Hi Kenneth
I work at Snappli and thanks for checking out our app. Our cloud service compresses your mobile data on the fly leading to an average of 30-35% reduction of data usage while some apps such as Instagram can be compressed by up to 85%. You are right in your observation that Verizon charge extortionate rates for overage and we help many users around the world avoid such fees.
From a security point of view, we don't touch secure traffic (e.g. ssl) in any way so we can't see or store things like passwords or secure messages.
We hope you enjoy Snappli!

How can i adopt the iPhone App-Structure to iTunes for Sync?

Hello Community!
I usually buy apps or games directly over the iPhone-App-Store and i also manage the folder structure directly on the iPhone Screen.
Yesterday i bought a new App via the iTunes Store on my MacBook (don't know why, i thought it would be no problem)
ITunes is set to manual organisation (the box "App Sync" is not set in iTunes).
So my problem is:
I cannot install my recently bought app on my phone without enable synchronisation with iTunes.
But if i set iTunes to app sync it is going to destroy my folder structures and remove apps i bought with the iPhone EVEN if i click "Transfer Purchases"!
Is there a way to manually install the app without destroying my complete structure and losing apps?
Sorry for the critics, but this is not very user-friendly!
Thanks for Help!

Is an iPhone app the best choice for our project?

Dear All,
We are developing a travel tour idea for different locations within the US. Tour content can include video, audio, images and text, as well as maps and locations. We want to make our tours "in-depth" so that people can spend good quality time traveling a short distance and exploring "in-depth" rather than travelling long distances and giving only casual interest to what they see.
I'm new to developing apps for the iPhone and am using Dreamweaver CS5.5 soon to be updated to CS6.
I'm wondering if an app for iPhone and other related media like Android is really the way to go because of the limited content and screen size available. I can envision our tours being utilized in many other formats, including iPad, Interactive PDF, as travel e-books or through an interactive website. Our goal is to sell our apps, not give our material away for free. PDF would be my preferred format, but I know that PDF is easily transferred for free among users and would probably not give us much profit.
Any thoughts out there on what the best format for our project might be, or should it include ALL of the above formats? App creation for the iPhone is a rather complicated process, so that's why I'm wondering if after all of the work that you have to put in to create an iPhone app, if that is ultimately my best choice.
I would appreciate any thoughts or advice, or any questions you might have. I'm working on a Mac Pro with CS5.5 Master Collection soon to be updated to CS6

hi,
It depends on your requirement. Base on my experience, VM or website all could meet your requirement. From your description, You could use azure website to host your php website (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-configure/).
And you could use website auto scale feature in the future. I suggest you could see their comparison (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/choose-web-site-cloud-service-vm/
Hope it helps.

Featured tab in iPhone App Store not working for me?

When I open up the App Store on my iPhone 4 (current software is 5.1), and click on Featured, it takes me directly to the New Year, New You list of Apps and lists the categories of Your Body, Your Mind, Your Money and Your Time. There is no way to get back to the traditional page that lists what Apps are being featured. I've tried killing the app in multitasking, doing a soft reset (holding the Power and Home button), resetting all settings and restoring my iPhone. Nothing's worked and I'm at a loss...my iPad 2 App store works fine so I konw it's isolated to my iPhone for some reason. Any suggestions?

I dont know if there is a differance if you have Genius on or off when the error occur. But i tried the Genius fix twice. The first time I hadn't killed the app store from the running apps menu (double clicking the home button), that time I ended up on the info page when I reactivated Genius. The second time I killed the app before turning off Genius from the settings, that time it fixed it for me. But as I said, I had Genius on from the start, so it might not help you.. but you should try it if you havn't allready.

HT201272 how do i get my iphone app upgrade i paid for, when i didn't have the download setting on , on my iphone 4?

I paid for an upgrade to the ringtone maker and my download setting was off, how do i get my purchase downloaded to my phone without having to pay for it again?

If that doesn't work you can use Migration Assistant - of course that will move all the application to the new computer.

What to do if iPhone apps don't work after syncing with iTunes

Just wanting to share this with anyone who may have the same problem.
This is what I did: All I did was authorised my computer to transfer apps into my iTunes.
This may also help (depending on the cause of the problem)
http://www.iphonealley.com/tips/how-to-fix-broken-or-crashing-iphone-apps
(Thanks to Jim for sending this link but apparently my solution was a much simpler one)
Hope this helps! Cheerios!

Try this - worked for me:
on the iPhone, go Settings-->General-->Restricitons and either turn all Restrictions off OR if they are on make sure 'Installing Apps' is ON.

I have an iPhone App and now he Sound Does not work

I have an iPhone App the was written for I think iOS 4. Now under iOS 5 the sound does not seem to work. I know this is very vauge but I have really no experance writting apps for the iOS. I work mainly with Oracle Databases. I had someone write this for me and now I can not reach them. I am confedent with a little direction I can tackle this issue.

I believe there are changes w/AVFoundation that need to be addressed in these cases.
See the iOS 5 release notes in the Dev Center...

Steps to take for developing iPhone app

I have IMHO a brilliant idea for an iPhone app (I know, I know, and what else is new?:)
But seriously I want to pursue it. I'm am by no means a programmer of any sort. (However, I'm toying with the idea of studying programming). That said, to get this first baby off the ground I plan to hire a programmer to realize my concept for me. It involves audio, and I will be able to create all the audio content myself(I'm a music/audio professional). I can also create all or most of the necessary graphics/artwork myself (I'm a former graphics pro).
So, how do I start? What do I need to have in place to talk to a programmer? Should I create a dummy using still graphics and my audio content as a demo? I can even make a video demo of how it would work.
What are the best resources for finding a competent (and cool) programmer. Just doing a search yields so much information it's overwhelming. I'd rather work with a creative person as one on one as possible, and not ship it off to some impersonal place. What should I expect to pay?
Lastly, (as a total programmer beginner) is it nuts to think I could learn to program the app myself in a reasonable amount of time given that I have very specific and detailed ideas on how it would work?

If you honestly have to ask whether or not you could do it yourself then you probably can't. Get an NDA and write up a detailed specification of everything you want the application to do, how you want it to be done, and what it should generally look like. Some general UI mock ups are always a plus. Be prepared to be told that certain things cannot (or should not) be done.
Don't hire anyone from rentacoder.com. It is a veritable hotbed of international incompetence (and incoherence) and their service agreement's promises of security and arbitration will be broken in the event that a dispute should arise because there is not a single member of Exhedra Solutions' staff who even knows what a Mac looks like let alone how to test a deliverable on one. They will waste months of time promising you services they have no intention of providing and then ultimately tell you to pick a number between 1 and 10 to decide how much money you should be awarded. They're a joke of a company run by an aging frat boy cougar magnet whose experience begins and ends at Visual Basic and they bank on the fact that 99% of their clientele has no working knowledge of US law and can't sue them--especially not when they give the Florida Secretary of State the address of a vacant lot as their official registered agent for service of process.
Find a real person who lives in your country and speaks your language and contract with them directly. Expect to offer anything in the range of $50-$200/hr depending on the type of work involved and your geographic location. Don't bother with any promises of links on websites, equity shares, profit percentages or portfolio pieces in lieu of payment unless you're talking to some gullible high school kid. These things are all as worthless as they sound.

My iPhone was stolen a few days ago. It appears to be offline on the Find My iPhone app. If the person who has it turns it on only for a brief moment and then turns it off immediately, will the location still be found? Once it returns to being offline will the location still be sent to me? And also, how can I retrieve my pictures from my iCloud?

Anything is possible.

How come the same apps that are available for my iPhone and my iPad are not the same as the apps in the app store on my mac

I want some of the same apps available on my iphone and ipad2 to be available on my macbook pro app store and to be able to link them through icloud. Is this not possible? If not, why not?

The Mac uses Mac OS X and iDevices use iOS. These are two different operating systems and the apps must be written for each operating system specifically, even when the apps go by the same name, such as the iWork apps, they are two ifferent versions of the same app for the two different platforms.
So, as an example, Safari has been written for three different operating systems, Mac OS X, iOS and Windows. And the Safari apps, as similar as they are visually, are not interchangeable for the different platforms.

"Apple ID cannot be used for MobileMe" when setting up Find My iPhone app

Okay, folks, spent some time with MobileMe support via chat this morning. This is what I've learned. Apparently you CANNOT use an Apple ID, regardless of what format it's in (usually a full email address) AS LONG AS IT'S ASSOCIATED WITH A MOBILE ME (ME.COM ADDRESS) ACCOUNT THAT IS CLOSED OR NO LONGER ACTIVE. Unfortunately, there is no way to disassociate the two and there is no way the old MobileMe (me.com address) account can be deleted.
Apparently, I had some issue when I was trying out the MobileMe for the trial period many months ago and for some reason couldn't use my primary Apple ID (my primary email address), so I created a me.com address for the MobileMe account. Eventually, I cancelled the MobileMe account because the cost wasn't justified for the features it offered. Unfortunately, that association with my primary Apple ID is permanent and THAT is the source of the "This Apple ID canot be used for MobileMe" error. Or at least that's ONE reason for it.
The solution? Create a completely new, separate Apple ID using a valid email address from which you can receive a verification email. The address is NOT used to receive any further emails from Apple. Only to create logon credentials. Do NOT associate this email address with your current/primary Apple ID or any other Apple ID. This is what you use to set up Find My iPhone/iPad, etc. using the MobileMe setup in Settings>Mail/Contacts/Calendars as well as the Find My iPhone App (plus it's your logon to the MobileMe Find My iPhone web page).
When you log in to the MobileMe page, BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU ENTER YOUR APPLE ID IF IT'S A FULL EMAIL ADDRESS: apparently, the ID field automatically tries to change it to "[email protected]" instead of your "[email protected]". Just check it before and after you enter your Apple ID password and submit.
I did this and it works. Find My iPhone app and service works beautifully. Spotted my iPad right where I'm at on a map. I sent a message to my iPad via the service (which also offers the option to play a sound, lock the device or even wipe the device).
I hope this information helps SOMEONE.
Oh...interesting footnote: I was informed that APPLE IDs CANNOT BE DELETED. Even if you create a "test" Apple ID (like I did during our troubleshooting session) with some barely used email account using a weak password. That means, regardless of whether you use it or not for MobileMe/Find My iPhone, you really, really need to give it a SECURE password (if you're going to keep that email account alive). So yeah, there are a lot of dormant Apple IDs floating around out there!

I agree.
I found this 'bug' out the other day when getting ready for my new iPhone I was setting up my iPad with some new apps too and wanted to work with Find My iPhone.
Here's the deal; my main AppleID is just a simple 'Username' not a '[email protected]' AppleID.
I've had this since the need for AppleIDs were used for these forums and the iTunes Store, AppStore, etc.
So it works fine and well with that stuff but not with find my iphone on my iPad as it wants a full email account, either a '@me.com' or a '[email protected]' AppleID which I did create but I think it was used as Job profile or something other along those lines (NOT used for a MobileMe account or .mac either).
And I only have access to one email now and I dont feel comfortable having multiple email addresses that I dont check or have no use for, call my simple or naive but thats just how it goes.
What I'd like to do is be able to use either AppleID for my Find My iPhone app and everything else.
And I think thats a good point, '@me.com's for all. make it a whole lot easier in my opinion.
merge all the apple accounts you created into a MobileMe, simplifies the situation and makes it easier connect to all Apple Services.
My itunes account, apple.com store account, appstore account, main AppleID for the past couple years it "Maxwell Stanley" but it does NOT work with Find My iPhone. So i created [email protected] (example.com is in place of my true email domain for privacy reasons) and that doesnt work as it statse it Cannot Be used.
My 'Maxwell Stanley" Apple ID's email associated with it was [email protected] i tried changing it to [email protected] but still doesnt recognize that as an AppleID even though its associated with "Maxwell Stanley".
I event ried to use the SAME email that is associated with my 2nd AppleID '[email protected]' with the appleid 'Maxwell Stanley' and no dice.
running out of options it seems.
Any idea on the best solution?
Thank you!

I own a ipod touch and a ipad but i lost my ipod touch and downloaded the find iphone app on my ipad and when i opened the app my ipod touch wasnt even listed on it as one of my products but i use the same apple id for all of my products??!! Please Help

i own a ipod touch and a ipad2g but i lost my ipod touch and downloaded the find iphone app on my ipad and when i opened the app my ipod touch wasnt even listed on it as one of my products but i use the same apple id for all of my products??!! Please Help

Ive never used that but I think there is a find ipod app. But im not sure. The ipod might have had to have it on?

I set up "Find My Iphone App" using the same apple id and password on two iphones. Now the app only finds the phone that I did the setup on first. Do I need a different apple id and password on each phone for the app to run correctly?

I setup two iphones on "Find My Iphone App" Using the same apple id on each phone. Now the app finds only the phone I setup first. Do I need to use two different apple ids? If your answer is yes then how do I errase the setup in the second phone and assign a new id?

As TJBUSMC1973 states, and as I said earlier, the Find My iPhone app has nothing to do with your use of Find My iPhone. The app is just used if necessary to locate another iOS device from that particular iOS device. To see if both of your devices are being located in Find My iPhone, log into www.icloud.com and select Find My iPhone. Both of the devices should appear. If they do not, then go into whichever of the devices does not appear and make sure that Find My iPhone is activated. It has to be activated through iCloud, and for both to show on the same map, they both have to have the same iCloud ID.
