The Inteliscope connects your iPhone to an actual firearm
We've talked before about how the iPhone can do a lot of things for you, but can it serve as a scope on a tactical rifle? That's the idea behind the Inteliscope, a new accessory that connects your iPhone to an actual tactical firearm. You just clip your iPhone 5 (or 4S or iPod touch) to the ...

Epic Rap Battles of History gets an iOS app
You've probably seen the YouTube series Epic Rap Battles of History before -- they're the wild guys behind the (slightly not safe for work) Steve Jobs and Bill Gates rap battle, where the two creators, Peter Shukoff and Lloyd Ahlquist, face off as the two titans of the computer industry in a ...
YouTube Capture app adds iPad and mini support
Following the release of YouTube Capture for iPhone late last year, Google has finally added iPad (and iPad mini) support to the app -- taking full advantage of the iPad's bigger screen and extra pixels -- in version 1.2. YouTube Capture lets you easily record, edit (with color correction, ...
Gravidi wants to put clickable hotspots on videos for iOS
At SXSW I found a kiosk showing off a beta of the app Gravidi. It allows producers to add a layer of interactivity to videos by embedding hotspots in the video, and adding other activity around it. For users, it provides a way to learn more about moments in a video, or people or objects in that ...
Clinch for iOS can turn you into a pretty capable movie maker
Clinch is an free video editor that is mostly hands-off. Throw it some photos or video, and the app will edit, add music and assemble your raw material into an attractive video that you can share with friends and families. You get some degree of control and can add captions, a theme and a ...
Steve's 'One More Things' all in one video
Steve Jobs' "One More Thing" pronouncements made for some of the most memorable and fun moments of the various Apple events he hosted over the years. Near the end of each show, he would usually pull out a "I've got one more thing to share with you" reveal, and it would always be something not ...
Daily iPad App: Watchup is your personal video news station
Sometimes reading the news just doesn't jive with what you are doing. For those times, iPad owners can turn to Watchup, a video news aggregator that pulls content from the top news channels. Watchup lets you create your own custom newscasts that you can watch when you have some free time at ...
Connect with your 8mm memories using YesVideo's app and a TUAW discount
Nothing says "analog" like a shoebox full of old videotapes, Super 8 movies and slides. Even if you wanted to watch them (or subject friends / kids to them), digging out the old projector or VCR is a dicey proposition. Converting film to video or digital storage is possible to achieve DIY, but ...
Rabbit video chat beta kicks off
Late in December we told you about the upcoming Rabbit video chat and screensharing service, aimed specifically at Mac users in the near term. Rabbit's team has been cranking away since then, and today the service begins welcoming invited testers to the closed beta. Rabbit's aim is to ...
TUAW TV Live at 5 PM ET: Macworld/iWorld after party with Steve and Randy
We're back from Macworld/iWorld 2013, most of us are rested up from the nonstop interviewing/walking/partying merry-go-round we were on for three or four days, and I've even managed to come back from the trip without a cold or flu (so far). Today Randy Nelson and I will be doing a post-mortem ...
ZipaClip gives you secure video sharing on iOS
ZipaClip is an interesting approach to privacy for videos that you don't want to share through social media services. The free app encrypts video and sends it to a secure server. If the recipient has the app, they can download it from the cloud. It's good for family sharing or when you need ...
Givit makes video editing, sharing easier
Every year at Macworld/iWorld I see another great video application for iOS. Last year one of the Best of Show winners was Game Your Video, a nifty app for adding effects to video. While I enjoyed the app, it wasn't very straightforward, and editing wasn't a great experience. Givit, on the ...
Review: Blu-ray player software for Mac
It's been a while since Steve Jobs declared Blu-ray a "bag of hurt", and in the years since Apple has been uninterested in the Blu-ray disc format. Maybe they don't want to pay the license fees, maybe they'd rather sell you movies from iTunes, who knows, but Blu-ray hardware from Apple isn't ...
THX tune-up is a free iOS app for home theater fans
Here's something nice from those folks at THX. It's a free app (through February 4, then it's US$1.99) that allows you to assess the state of your home theater and make adjustments to improve audio and visual performance. THX tune-up connects to your TV with the Apple Digital AV Adapter and an ...
