We know some of you have been waiting for quite some time for iOS 6.1 to arrive in your hands. That day has finally arrived!
As with any iOS release, we just can't wait to see what new things it has to offer, but mostly to see what has been fixed! As with any release it may not always fix everything you wish it would do and sometimes create new things that weren't expected!
So we have created this posting for that reason. We want to hear what you think of the…

At the end of each month the AppleVis Editorial Team take a look at all the apps that have been posted to the site during that month - either for the first time or where there has been a significant update - and decide which of these we think is the most noteworthy.

In the Summer of 2011 I was preparing to return to college for the first time in over 20 years, and the first time ever as a blind student. I hoped to be able to use my 11 inch Macbook Air for all of my schoolwork, but lots of folks cautioned I would not be able to succeed without having access to MS Office and other Windows-based applications. While I had an intimate working knowledge of many Microsoft products from 20+ years spent in corporate IT, I only knew them from the perspective of a…
It's that time again, when the AppleVis Editorial Team sit down to look at all the activity in the site's App Directories in the previous month and decide on our App Pick of the Month.
We are pleased to announce that the latest inductee into the AppleVis iOS App Hall of Fame is Zello Walkie Talkie.

As consumers, it would also provide us…
