Starting in the summer of 2011, a number of airlines, including Alaska Airlines and Delta, began replacing voluminous paper manuals with iPads on some of its planes. The iPads came pre-loaded with anything and everything a pilot might need to access during a flight, including aeronautical charts, operating manuals, along with a slew of other reference materials.
By 2013, this practice became commonplace, so much so that American Airlines began using iPads across its entire fleet of aircraft, the first major commercial airline to do so.

But it’s more than apparent that some users are interested in such features from mobile devices. However, rather than making a new modular phone concept, one company has conceived a different kind of device that can offer the same sort of module-based experience to existing smartphones, including the iPhone.

Essentially, Microsoft is letting developers reuse most of the same code that they used to write their apps for rival platforms and is giving them tools to help them optimize these apps for Windows.

The Apple Watch ships with a variety of watch faces that users can swap on a whim – for example, I’m currently rocking the Mickey face you may have seen in some pictures and screenshots. But aside from the default options preloaded on the device, you can’t yet choose any other type of watch face. In fact, if you were hoping to see new watch faces begin popping up in the App Store, you’re completely out of luck for the time being, because Apple has banned apps that do nothing but tell time.

It’s 2015. The iPhone was first introduced more than eight years ago, and development obviously began long before the phone was first unveiled in 2007. In all this time, however, Apple still hasn’t been able to master the gentle art of autocorrect, and autocorrect fails remain just as funny today as they were when the trend first began. In fact, they may have even gotten funnier with time, simply because there’s doesn’t seem to be any way the issue will ever be fixed.
