Sophiestication Software developer takes job at Apple

Sophia Teutschler, the developer behind Sophiestication Software, is joining Apple as part of the UIKit Frameworks team. This means that the apps that she develops, including Articles, Tipulator, and Groceries, will soon stop receiving updates. While some of her apps have received updates for iOS 7, others, such as Articles, will only get minimal updates, according to a post on the Sophiestication blog:

There will be one additional update to Articles though. The upcoming version 2.6 will sport a new iOS 7-style app icon made by the talented folks at the Iconfactory.

Additionally, Tipulator just updated with an iOS 7-style icon, and Groceries 4 is in review and updated for iOS 7, so users should expect to see that update after iOS 7 launches tomorrow. Magical Weather, the iPad weather app, has been sold to MetroGroup, and will continue on with that company. Customer support emails will no longer be answered, but Teutschler says that the company's Twitter account will remain active, and that she may be able to provide quick answers to questions now and again.

Beta testers will likely wait until July to get their hands on iOS 16

If all goes according to previous years we can expect Apple to release the first developer beta of iOS 16 on June 6, the same day that it will be announced. That's the date of the WWDC22 opening keynote but those who are part of the public beta program look set to be waiting a little while longer.

Review: Apex Legends Mobile is almost an entirely different game

Apex Legends Mobile has been in the works for a while, promising players a battle royale experience on the go. While it certainly does deliver on that portable shooter experience, it manages to separate itself from its source — for better or worse.
