Apple has said it wants more ethnic diversity in the basic range of emoji available to text-messaging apps.
It added that it was working the body responsible for deciding the standardised range of graphic symbols that can be added to text messages to achieve this.At present the list of characters contains dozens of faces of people that appear to be white.However, only two of the symbols seem to be Asian and none are black.Since 2010 a basic list has been developed and maintained by the Unicode Consortium - a Silicon Valley-based non-profit organisation made up of major computer firms, software producers, user groups and others.It does this to ensure that different devices and mobile carriers can share a basic set.
Although some apps offer to boost the number of emoji that a user can send and receive, users risk their friends being unable to view them if they haven't installed the same software.Despite the fact that emoji first became popular in Japan, Unicode's current list only features two Asian people - a "man with a turban" and a "man with Gua Pi Mao", a type of Chinese hat - although it does include a Japanese ogre and Japanese dolls. Diversity petition
Apple, Google, Microsoft and other tech firms design their own versions of how the more than 800 basic emoji characters appear, but they tend to interpret most of the reference list's human characters as being Caucasian. "Our emoji characters are based on the Unicode standard, which is necessary for them to be displayed properly across many platforms," Katie Cotton, Apple's vice-president of worldwide corporate communications, told MTV.
A petition suggested that emoji like these could be added to Apple's keyboard
"There needs to be more diversity in the emoji character set, and we have been working closely with the Unicode Consortium in an effort to update the standard."The broadcaster approached the company after a petition was posted to DoSomething.org calling on Apple to increase the ethnic diversity found within its emoji keyboard."There's a white boy, girl, man, woman, elderly man, elderly woman, blonde boy, blonde girl and, we're pretty sure, [video game character] Princess Peach," it said.v"But when it comes to faces outside of yellow smileys, there's a staggering lack of minority representation."
It added that the keyboard already offered a graphic showing a same-sex couple, and called on the company to present people with a wider range of skin tones.
'Expressive power'
Bernie Hogan is studying the use of emoji as part of his research into how people represent themselves on the net.The Oxford University research fellow said it sounded like a trivial problem but many smart device owners had become reliant on the tool ."Emoji exist first and foremost as a way to augment texts with clear expressive power," he told the BBC.
"If they restrict the sort of people who are used in the images it restricts users' expressive power - people won't feel that the emoji speak for them." There are calls to widen Unicode's list even further.
The Wall Street Journal has reported on campaigns to include hotdogs, cupcakes, bacon and tacos to the list, which currently includes sushi, fried shrimp and a bento box as a result of it Japanese origins.
However, Mr Hogan warns there are dangers with expanding it too far."There will always be more potential icons than you can reasonably put in a system," he said."It can't realistically be the responsibility of any particular organisation or consortium to be able to provide all possible icons in a usable format."But that being said, in terms of racial diversity it's very fair to think the range should be extended."
Apple has not launched the iPhone 5S or 5C in India. But you can still buy one. The catch: You have to shell out big bucks for these devices. To be precise, the asking rate for the basic model of the iPhone 5S is between Rs 65,000 and Rs 1,00,000, depending on who you ask, and in which city.
The iPhone 5C is difficult to find as dealers in these grey markets say that there is no demand for it, but it can be bought on websites like eBay for around Rs 55,000. The devices are factory-unlocked , which means you don't get official warranty. The unlocked version of the 16GB iPhone 5S costs $649 (around Rs 40,000) in the US, while the iPhone 5C costs $549 (around Rs 34,000).
New iPhones have always commanded premium prices in grey markets like Gaffar Market in Delhi, and Heera Panna and Alfa in Mumbai, largely because these devices are officially rolled out in the country several months after their international launch.
Apple is considered a premium brand and people who look at it as a status symbol are willing to pay exorbitant prices for bragging rights of being the first to own the new iPhone models before anyone else does. But this time the prices are touching a new high, particular for the goldcoloured iPhone 5S model.
"There is a huge demand for the champagne-coloured iPhone 5S. I just sold a piece with 16GB storage to a person in Patna for Rs 1,08,000 through eBay," said a Delhi-based dealer , on the condition of anonymity . He added that he had one more unit of the same colour, "but it is the 64GB model and is at an asking price of Rs 1,70,000". "iPhone 5S in white or space grey is cheaper. I can give you the 64GB model for Rs 1,30,000," he said.
The rates outside Delhi are less, but not by much. A Hyderabad-based phone dealer, who also maintains an e-commerce website called Lets-Go-Digital , said that he was selling 16GB iPhone 5S in the coveted gold colour at Rs 1,05,000. The iPhone 5S in grey was available at Rs 77,000.
In Mumbai, Manish Khatri, who has a phone store, but doesn't sell phones without an official warranty, said the price of iPhone 5S is between Rs 65,000 to Rs 75,000 for the 16GB model in the city's grey market. However, the gold-coloured device costs around Rs 85,000.
If you cannot spend this kind of money on a phone and yet want an iPhone, your only option is to wait.
It took only days for the hackers of Germany’s Chaos Computer Club to claim victory in the challenge to break Apple’s vaunted new security feature in the iPhone 5s. The CCC “biometrics hacking team” used a photo of a fingerprint from a glass surface to fashion a fake finger that they then used to fool the newest iPhone into unlocking. “This demonstrates – again,” the group said in a statement, “that fingerprint biometrics is unsuitable as access control method and should be avoided.”
Actually, it demonstrates no such thing.
The new iPhone debuted on Friday, September 20. The CCC team announced their successful hack roughly 48 hours later. But if you think this is a crushing defeat for Apple, think again. Apple's technology is good enough for most common applications. But no fingerprint reader is unhackable.
Despite the slightly high-end lab equipment, this isn’t exactly rocket science. The source fingerprint probably looked like this:Biometric information like fingerprints and retina scans are useful pieces of a multi-factor authentication puzzle. Although the CCC claims they used “materials that can be found in almost every household,” it’s unlikely that many households have the imaging technology to capture a fingerprint in a 2400 dpi photograph, clean up the resulting image and print it at 1200 dpi “onto transparent sheet with a thick toner setting,” and then “smear pink latex milk or white woodglue” into the pattern to make a fake finger like the one that successfully bypassed the security of Touch ID.
And the lab bench where the fake finger was created probably looked something like this:
The hack is to create an artificial finger using a mold that is manufactured from a latent fingerprint left by the legitimate user. The fingerprint can be obtained from just about anywhere, mug, door handle, rail etc. With this artificial finger the hacker should be able to intrude a system if the mandatory smart card required for logon is available and in use.
And they demonstrated that they could do exactly that. In 2003. The only difference between that hack from a decade ago and the one from this weekend is the resolution of the captured fingerprint.
As usual, Apple has managed to blur the thin line between technical reality and marketing claims. Apple’s support document, “iPhone 5s: About Touch ID security,” is practically oozing with buzzwords and marketing-speak:
The technology within Touch ID is some of the most advanced hardware and software we've put in any device. To fit within the Home button, the Touch ID sensor is only 170 microns thin, not much thicker than a human hair. This high-resolution 500 ppi sensor can read extremely fine details of your fingerprint. The button itself is made from sapphire crystal—one of the clearest, hardest materials available. This protects the sensor and acts as a lens to precisely focus it on your finger. The steel ring surrounding the button detects your finger and tells Touch ID to start reading your fingerprint. The sensor uses advanced capacitive touch to take a high-resolution image from small sections of your fingerprint from the subepidermal layers of your skin. Touch ID then intelligently analyzes this information with a remarkable degree of detail and precision. … Touch ID uses all of this to provide an accurate match and a very high level of security.
The article goes on to note that the odds of a random stranger’s fingerprint matching yours is in the neighborhood of 1 in 50,000, which is “much better than the 1 in 10,000 odds of guessing a typical 4-digit passcode.”
The underlying technology in the iPhone 5s was undoubtedly influenced, if not outright authored, by Authentec, a pioneer in fingerprint and NFC technology, which Apple acquired for a reported $365 million a little over a year ago. Authentec's technology has been part of the PC landscape for years, mostly on enterprise-class notebook PCs.Unless they've captured a 2400 dpi image of your fingerprint, in which case the odds improve dramatically.
And the company wasn’t shy about tooting its own horn in regard to its technical chops. This claim, for example, is on an archived “Technology” page from the now-shuttered Authentec website:
Anti-Spoofing
AuthenTec's anti-spoofing technology dynamically measures the properties of finger skin placed on the sensor while the finger is being scanned. This patented technology ensures that only real fingerprints are read by converting the properties of the skin into digital data which are delivered to the host computer for analysis. AuthenTec anti-spoofing technology then compares the data with expected properties to ensure fingerprint authentication. [emphasis added]
Oops.
Oddly, the current version of the Authentec.com website does not mention the company’s acquisition by Apple. If you visit the site looking for updated Windows drivers or software, you’re redirected to a support page that cryptically notes: “AuthenTec was acquired in October 2012 and the new owner has discontinued the products and services supported on this site.”
“The new owner,” of course, is Apple. But that name doesn’t appear anywhere on the authentec.com domain, which has been scrubbed of most of its PC-era content.
The real lesson in all of this isn’t that fingerprints are untrustworthy. In fact, the opposite is true. For everyday use, a fingerprint is far more secure than a four-digit passcode.
Windows 8.1, which was released to manufacturing a month before iOS 7 but won’t hit shelves until October, has similar technology. A fingerprint identification framework designed for use with the same type of reader as is found in the new iPhone (a big improvement over older swipe-based fingerprint readers) is built into Windows 8.1. It can be combined with the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) in a Windows 8.1 device to create a virtual smartcard that makes spoofing of enterprise network credentials very difficult.If your data is valuable enough for an attacker to go to the trouble of stealing a super-high-resolution photo of your fingerprint and molding a fake finger, you probably should be using multi-factor authentication. And in fact the iPhone already does that. Your fingerprint enrollment information is stored in a secure area in the A7 processor that powers the iPhone 5s. If someone manages to steal your fingerprint, they also need to steal your phone. That fake finger by itself won’t work with another iPhone unless you also have your Apple account credentials.
In its part-marketing/part-technical document, Apple says it's come up with a solution that offers the same secure storage of biometric data, without any of the standards support that TPM includes:
iPhone 5s also includes a new advanced security architecture called the Secure Enclave within the A7 chip, which was developed to protect passcode and fingerprint data. Fingerprint data is encrypted and protected with a key available only to the Secure Enclave. Fingerprint data is used only by the Secure Enclave to verify that your fingerprint matches the enrolled fingerprint data. The Secure Enclave is walled off from the rest of A7 and as well as the rest of iOS. Therefore, your fingerprint data is never accessed by iOS or other apps, never stored on Apple servers, and never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else. Only Touch ID uses it and it can't be used to match against other fingerprint databases.
Meanwhile, back here on Earth, your fingerprint is a convenient way to protect the garden-variety secrets and shopping we all keep. Combine it with a reasonably strong passcode and you should be perfectly safe. Unless you’re also a character in a spy novel.
Apple on Monday announced that it had sold 9 million new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c models, just three days after the launch of the new devices on 20 September. The iPhone 5 had sold over 5 million devices over the launch weekend. Apple’s latest sales number is big, given that analysts had predicted that Apple would sell between 6 million and 8 million models during the first weekend. In addition to that Apple’s new iOS 7 has seen over 200 million downloads, and Apple claims that the rate of upgrades from iOS 6 to iOS 7 is its fastest ever. Apple’s iPhone 5s is seen in this file photo. Reuters Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO said in a press release. “The demand for the new iPhones has been incredible, and while we’ve sold out of our initial supply of iPhone 5s, stores continue to receive new iPhone shipments regularly.” Incidentally Tim Cook has just recently joined Twitter and he tweeted out about the success of the iPhone, though he didn’t mention numbers in the tweet.
The news of iPhone 5s and 5c’s stellar success meant that Apple’s shares gained $24.35, or more than 5 percent, to hit $491.76 by afternoon trading. Apple’s shares are currently at 490.64 which is $23.23 or 4.97 percent higher. Apple also revised its financial forecast to reflect the higher sales, which is rare for the company. It said revenue in the fiscal fourth quarter would be near the high end of its previous forecast of $34 billion to $37 billion. It said gross profit margin would come in at the top of its previous forecast of 36 percent to 37 percent. As far as the iPhone 5s’ reception is concerned, it is the gold phone that seems to have sparked off the frenzy. This is the first time that Apple has ditched the traditional Black and White iPhone and added gold along with Space Gray and Silver. The gold iPhone was sold out within hours of the launch and according to reports the unlocked gold iPhone is selling for a whopping $10,000 on ebay. The 16 GB version of the gold iPhone costs $649 for the unlocked version. More on the gold madness here. A report by Localytics also confirmed that more than the iPhone 5c, it was the iPhone 5s that was selling so well. The report says that iPhone 5s outsold 5c by nearly 3.4 times in the United States. And the iPhone 5s madness isn’t just over nothing. According to to tech experts, iPhone 5s is blowing away the competition when it comes to speed. AnandTech, which has done a detailed review of the iPhone 5s says the smartphone’s new A7 chip with its 64-bit architecture is easily the fastest. Oh and its not a quad-core chip, Apple has gone for dual-core chip clocked at 1.3 Ghz. According to the post, The dual-core A7 is now the fastest SoC we’ve tested under SunSpider, even outpacing Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 and ARM’s Cortex A15. Also that is not the only benchmark test where Apple’s iPhone 5s is giving its competitors a run for their money. Almost all the other tests that AnandTech ran, show the iPhone 5s coming out on top. You can view the entire detailed post here. Meanwhile German hackers have already claimed to have cracked Apple iPhone 5s’ fingerprint scanner or what Apple is calling the TouchID. The Chaos Computing Club (CCC) posted a video on their website showing how an iPhone 5s could be accessedwith a fabricated print. More on that here. It seems that with the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c, Apple has silenced critic for now.
If you use an iPhone 4, iPhone 4S or iPhone 5, you should immediately upgrade to iOS7. It is worth it. The new OS is full of fundamental changes. Visually, it is better than iOS 6 or older versions of the mobile operating system. And functionally, there are many new features that are bound to help you use your iPhone in a better way.But what if you don't have an iPhone? Don't feel dejected. If you have anAndroidphone that runs Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean or a newer version of Google's mobile OS, you already have most of the features that iOS 7 offers to iPhone users. Similarly, if you have a Windows Phone, you may not have the most feature rich mobile OS but in terms of looks and feel, it is second to none.
In fact, iOS 7 borrows ideas heavily from both Android and Windows Phone. Apple may not like you to know this but most of the features introduced in iOS 7 are inspired by other operating systems. Why do we say that? Read on...
Flat user interface: Until now, iOS was full of design that follows skeuomorphism. This means it had a look and feel that tried to mimic the real world elements. Apparently Steve Jobs and Scott Forstall, the software guru who handled iOS before he abruptly left Apple last year, liked skeuomorphism. This is the reason why iOS had faux glass effect, used many real-world symbols like clock and camera in icons, and had faux wood and leather elements within apps. Until 2010, this worked well.
But since 2010, the year when Microsoft introduced its Windows Phone that uses flat and 2D design, the user interface is moving towards to flatter and more modern elements. Inspired by Microsoft, Google introduced a flatter user interface in Android Ice Cream Sandwich and since then is refining it. Now with iOS 7, Apple has also (mostly) got rid of skeuomorphism in its mobile OS and has moved to a design that is more modern, sleeker and flatter. Keeping in line with the flat design, app icons have also been flattened, there are fewer obvious buttons to tap and a lot of decorative elements have been removed from apps.
Control Centre: Android devices are using single-tap options for years now. On an Android phone, you don't have to go to Settings to toggle Wi-Fi, or switch off data connection or change screen brightness. You can do all this by opening the notification shade by swiping down from top of the screen. With iOS7, Apple has added something similar. If you swipe up from the bottom of the screen on an iPhone running iOS 7, you get Control Centre that has options for accessing and changing frequently used settings like Wi-Fi toggle.
Card view in multitasking The card view or in other words thumbnail view of open apps was implemented by Palm in WebOS 2009. Google took the inspiration from this idea and brought it to Android. Later, Microsoft used the same method for implementing multitasking in Windows Phone. And now Apple shows live cards of open apps when a user goes into the multitasking mode. Users can swipe away the cards to close the apps. Also, multitasking is more robust in iOS now. It is similar to that of Android and apps keep running even when they are in background.Swipe anywhere on lockscreen: Earlier, iPhone users had to swipe in a particular area of the screen to unlock it. Now, just like most Android phones, they can swipe anywhere on the screen to unlock the device.
Automatic app updates: If an Android user has enabled it, the apps will update automatically when the phone is connected to a Wi-Fi network. With iOS 7, Apple has added the similar feature.
Dynamic wallpaper: In iOS 7, users can select from a set of dynamic wallpapers that give an impression of faux 3D. While on Android such wallpapers are not available by default, Android users can use live wallpapers to give their devices a better look.
What iOS still lacks There is no doubt that iOS 7 is much better looking and more functional than the older versions of the OS. But there are many core areas where Android is ahead. Some of these are:
Choice of apps: On Android, a user can set his own default apps. If you don't like Chrome browser, you can set Opera as your default browser. But iPhone users are stuck with apps that Apple wants them to use. For example, Safari is the default browser on iPhone and it can't be changed.
Sharing within apps: Apple tightly controls what apps can do on a phone. The company says it is necessary to keep iPhone and iPad secure. Google is much more relaxed when it comes to third-party apps. This is the reason why third-party apps in Android can talk to the each other. So, what is the benefit? The most apparent is how you can share information. For example, a photo can be directly shared from the Gallery through any appropriate app. On iOS 7, there are only a handful of Apple-approved apps that can be used to share images.
Widgets: Some people love widgets, while some hate them. On iOS 7, however, none can use them because Apple doesn't have a provision for widgets.
Special keyboard: The keyboard in iOS 7 is quite good. However, if for some reason you don't like it, you cannot change it the way you can do on an Android phone.
Dynamic homescreen: Unlike the Android home screen, which can be customized in over a hundred ways, the home screen on an iPhone can't host anything more than the app icons and folders.
iOS 7 vs Android Jelly Bean
Both are good operating systems. But there are key differences in the user experience they provide. iOS 7 promises hassle-free smartphone experience with a slick user interface and smooth animations. Android Jelly Bean doesn't feel as smooth as iOS 7 but looks quite good and offers a number of features that make it lot more versatile. If you are the kind of user who doesn't like to change or tweak too many settings and want a smartphone experience that 'just works', iOS 7 is a better choice.
However, if you are comfortable with a smartphone or a computer, doesn't mind changing a setting or two, Android Jelly Bean will help you do lot more with your phone.
Those conclusions emerged after Apple said Monday that it sold nine million of the two handsets in their first three days on the market—well above what analysts had anticipated.The company also said that its quarterly sales and profit margin would likely be at the high end of the company's previous forecast. Apple in July projected revenue between $34 billion and $37 billion and gross margin between 36% and 37%.
The company's stock jumped $23.23, or 5%, to close at $490.64 on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
Apple also said that more than 200 million of its devices already were running iOS 7—a free overhaul released last week of the operating system used on iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch devices.
Apple's record volume for the new iPhones compared with five million iPhone 5 models sold on its opening weekend a year ago. Analyst had predicted that six million to seven million of this year's models would be sold in the debut weekend.
But there are caveats with the Apple figures, among them the decision to sell the phone in China in the opening weekend this year.
And beyond sales by the company to consumers from its own stores and website, Apple's count includes sales to other retailers. While Apple appears to have exhausted inventory of the iPhone 5S, the nine million units include unsold iPhone 5C models at non-Apple retailers, analysts said.
"If you adjust for the 5C, it's not the blowout that it initially looks like," said Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray. He estimated that three million to four million iPhone 5C models are with retailers and that the number of both handsets in the hands of consumers was 5.5 million.
Apple didn't break down its sales other than to say that demand for the iPhone 5S exceeded supply. "Thanks to all our amazing customers for the fantastic weekend," Chief Executive Tim Cook, a new Twitter user, said in a tweet Monday.Assessing demand for the phones is particularly difficult because more countries are involved this year: 11, compared with nine for the iPhone 5 release last year. And China, in particular, is a huge smartphone market.
Toni Sacconaghi, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, said the original iPhone 5 sold two million units in its first weekend of sales in China. He estimated that China likely contributed a similar amount this year.
The cautions aside, analysts still said the rollout was stronger than they expected, as indicated by longer lines at stores than last year. While some Apple analysts were disappointed that the iPhone 5C wasn't priced low enough to attract a new class of buyers, they said there remained a substantial number of iPhone users who wanted to upgrade their phones and that new trade-in programs made the process less expensive.
"People forget that there is a massive installed base out there," said Brian Marshall, an analyst at ISI International Group. As a result, when "each phone comes out, the launch gets bigger and bigger."
Several signs indicated strong customer preference for the iPhone 5S. Cantor Fitzgerald said its survey of buyers in New York found that 88% bought that model but that Apple's figures suggested that the less-expensive iPhone 5C also sold well.
Boston-based research firm Localytics said data generated from apps downloaded by users over the weekend indicated that the iPhone 5S sold 3.5 times as many units as the 5C.
Raj Aggarwal, the firm's chief executive, cautioned that the initial data didn't necessarily show the long-term prospects for the iPhone 5C since sales on the opening weekend could have been distorted by hard-core buyers. "The people who are excited enough to stand in line on a Friday morning, these are the early adopters," he said. "They are more likely to want the more sophisticated top-end device."
