Does anyone know if there's any apps that allow you to send/receive sms through your iPhone via a web interface on a PC?

I used to have 'Remote Messages 2' on my jailbroken iOS 6 phone (screenshot of the web interface below)

But because iOS 7 can't be jailbroken, I can't use this app.

The app basically allowed you to send/receive texts when on the same WiFi network through the interface above.

New Tweetbot for iOS 7 is out now, it's called Tweetbot 3. Looks good. Should be showing up on all the stores soon.

You have to buy it again but it's such a magnificent piece of software that it's no issue.

Yep, £2 is a no-brainer, especially when you consider a lot of people pay more than that for a cup of coffee each day.

It's got some great touches, like when you load a picture, instead of tapping to get rid of it, swipe in any direction - it "throws away" the picture in the direction you swipe. Nice little touch.

My friends Son is staying up playing on his ipad until late, without having to take it off him is there an app which could be passworded which would shut the ipad down at a set time or something similar?

This is about as close as I think you would probably get

There's no way to shut the iPad off automatically on a daily timer that I know of.

Thanks immensely for this recommendation! It has the feature I've wanted all along - disabling retweets on a per user basis. Now I don't have to put up with stupid celebrity retweets! Now Twitter is enjoyable once again.

I have been using it on my iPad though so I don't know what the difference is between 2.8.6 (iPad) and 3.0 (iPhone)

You're kidding! It was only announced a wee while ago.

I wonder how they've squished the file size down from approx 3GB on Xbox to 1.5GB on iOS.

Draeger · 12 Dec 2013 at 13:38

Doesnt mention iPhone 4 support so I assume it doesnt work on a 4? Bummer.

More of a question that a recommendation.

I have the Eurosport app for both the iPhone and iPad (which I love) but I can't seem to find any league tables etc on the iPad version which appear on the iPhone version. Am I missing something, or are they not on there?

Without trawling through the past 40 pages.. what are the must-have apps these days? :cool:

I realised earlier I haven't got a new app for years.
