Apple will allow ad blocking software to be used in Safari for iOS for the first time when it rolls out iOS 9 to iPhone and iPad users over the next few days.

The extensions will be available as apps from the App Store, working in much the same way as third-

party keyboards do on the iPhone.

It could mean web pages load quicker and battery life is improved, an issue Apple has been grappling with ever since it first launched the iPhone back in 2007.

The new iPhone 6S is said to have a smaller, but more efficient battery than previous models.

Ad blockers are already popular on desktops, but with iOS handling more than half of mobile web users according to recent research by Pagefair, the move is likely to be a big concern for businesses.

Advertising insiders say it could seriously harm small and medium-sized media outlets especially.

The news comes as the dedicated AdBlock Plus browser launches in the App Store and Google Play. The browser is expected to be a hit among those who hate having their web experience slowed down by ads.

Attha Mardhalatho Majja (Telugu Kama Kathalu)

BlackBerry appears to be readying two new smartphones featuring Google’s Android operating system, as it bids to arrest a long-term sales decline.

Until now, the Canadian mobile-maker has always released devices running its own operating system. But after confirming it's working with Google to create a more secure, business–focused version of Android, the two are now apparently set to cosy up even more snugly.

The first device to leak is a slider codenamed Venice. This phone looks on the surface to be running stock Android, but according to @evleaks will come with a series of features held over from BB10.

That means it'll surely pack BBM, unified messages in BlackBerry Hub and BlackBerry’s own note-taking and tasks apps. Essentially, BlackBerry is following a well worn path of adding its own apps to the basic Google experience.

The other handset is a new–look version of the company’s square Passport handset. Called the Passport Silver Edition, it features the same approach to Android as the Venice.

There’s no word on when either handset will get an official release, although both look very close to being ready to hit shop shelves.

BlackBerry has struggled to match its competitors in recent years, but may find its stock soars by teaming up with Google and hitching a ride on the world’s most popular mobile operating system.

Apple has officially held its hands up and admitted that there’s a fault with a small number of iPhone 6 Plus handsets sold last year.

The issue is with the device’s iSight camera, with users complaining about blurry snaps. It’s believed to be down to a problem with the phablet’s optical image stabilisation tech, prompting Apple to announce it will fix broken devices.

If you’ve got an iPhone 6 Plus and want to know if you qualify and where you stand legally, read on and we’ll tell you everything you need to know about the official Apple scheme.

1 Get your serial number handy

Apple says the handsets affected were ‘sold primarily between September 2014 and January 2015’.

If yours is affected, you’ll need to find your phone’s serial number and enter it into the official checker on Apple’s website to see if it’s eligible for the fix.

To find the serial number, simply go to the Settings app, tap on General and then About. The number can be copied over from there.

Alternatively, you can find the serial number of your iPhone 6 Plus’s box if you still have it or via the summary tab when you plug your iPhone into iTunes.

Telugu boothu Kathalu In Telugu Script: Using demand for the Apple Watch will see the device be made available in all US outlets of Best Buy next month, in a sign that maybe punters are finally coming around to the charms of the Cali company's smartwatch.

The news comes after Apple failed to report specific sales figures for its wearable, leaving some analysts to wonder openly whether the smartwatch has been a costly failure.

However, speaking with Fortune, Best Buy’s CEO Hubert Joly's categorically refuted that, claiming that "demand for Apple Watch has been so strong in the stores and online".

He added that the Apple Watch would be sold in all 1,050 of Best Buy’s main stores from September 4th, after the success of the initial launch in 300 outlets.

It marks a rare piece of good news for Apple when it comes to the watch.

Research earlier this summer suggested demand had nosedived by 90%, while component suppliers claimed that they were unlikely to reach break even volume on the parts they were producing on Apple's behalf.

Apple is not likely to say just how many watches it has sold, with CEO Tim Cook claiming that he does not wish to give the competition an unfair advantage.

Facebook has confirmed it's working on its own virtual assistant service, aimed at taking on the likes of Apple’s Siri and Google Now.

The tool, which is purportedly simply called 'M', forms part of the social network’s Messenger app. Unlike Siri, Microsoft Cortana or Google Now, it doesn’t take voice commands, but answers queries via text.

Facebook says it uses artificial intelligence that’s supervised by humans, with text input meaning it should be more accurate than its rivals.

What makes Facebook's assistant service particularly interesting is the fact that it can carry out tasks for users as well as answering queries.

According to Facebook’s David Marcus, who revealed the news, 'M' can "purchase items, get gifts delivered to your loved ones, book restaurants, [make] travel arrangements, appointments and way more".

For those with privacy concerns, 'M' will only use data from the Messenger app, not from your regular page.

At the moment, the service is only being trialled by select users in the San Francisco Bay Area. But expect that to change if Facebook sees an opportunity to roll it out and take a slice out of the competition.

The Apple Watch 2 will go into trial production this week, with the tech giant's Taiwanese manufacturing partner Quanta charged with assembling the sequel to last year’s smartwatch.

According to Taiwan’s Commercial Times, Quanta will begin manufacturing the device over the next few weeks.

Quanta made the original Apple Watch, although previous reports have suggested that long-term partner Foxconn may also be working on the follow-up.

The news fits neatly with other rumours pointing towards a March launch for the Apple Watch 2.

Word is that Apple will host an event to show off its latest wearable alongside its new budget smartphone, the much rumoured iPhone 6c.

Quanta’s CEO claimed last year that the Apple Watch 2 would be on shelves in the second quarter of 2016, giving Apple time to offer the device on pre–order after its March event.

The Apple Watch 2 is thought to be thinner, with a faster processor and greater independence from the iPhone.

Watch os2, the latest version of the operating system developed specifically for the Apple Watch that was released last year, is also likely to receive a further update when the device is revealed.

Ma Brother tho (Akka thammudu Srungaram Kathalu)

WhaatsApp has confirmed it is to drop its annual $1 subscription fee, with the Facebook–owned messaging service set to go free from 19th January.

The announcement was made by Jan Koum, the founder of WhatsApp, at a conference in Munich.

It calls time on a business model that has existed since the service was founded and which saw users given free use of the service for their first year before having to pay a dollar every twelve months thereafter.

WhatsApp has directly addressed concerns about whether scrapping the fee means users being sent ads to cover costs.

In an official blog post, it said: “Naturally, people might wonder how we plan to keep WhatsApp running without subscription fees and if today’s announcement means we’re introducing third-party ads. The answer is no.”

Instead, it will hook up with businesses to try and 'unify messaging' from the likes of banks and airlines.

So you might get a message from your bank about what appears to be a fraudulent transaction. Or your airline could notify you about a delayed flight.

The aim appears to be to try and make WhatsApp the go–to tool for getting day–to–day errands done.

It’s also likely that as WhatsApp launches in countries where users do not always have debit or credit cards, it needs to be less reliant on such payment methods.

Pakkinti Pellam Pooku lo Na Maadda

Apple is mightily mistaken if it thinks stylus support will be a major selling point for the iPad Pro, a survey suggests, as the tech giant bids to reverse a long-term decline in tablet sales.

In a poll of uSwitch Tech users, 27.2% said they aren’t convinced they’d use the Apple Pencil, despite its much-trumpeted note-taking and drawing smarts. A further 6.6% said they ‘hate it’ and that ‘it seems a bit old fashioned’.

Punters also seem chagrined at the £65 or so cost of the add-on, with 22.2% describing the asking price as ‘way too expensive’. Nearly as many (19.4%) said they were frustrated that they’ll have to pay anything extra to be the owner of an Apple Pencil.

Conversely, the amount of punters giving the Pencil a warm welcome were pretty paltry. Only 10.2% described it as a “great addition to the iPad’, while a similarly scanty 8.8% said they think they’ll find it very useful.

However, for all that consumers seemingly aren’t sold on the Apple Pencil, they appear to be much, much more receptive to the iPad Pro itself. A not inconsiderable 30% of the sample said that they’ve added the super-sized tablet to their shopping list since it was unveiled last week.

Atta pooku Naki mari Denganu

Virgin Media has announced pre-order price points for the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, ahead of the phones’ official streetdate of September 25th.

The iPhone 6S is up for grabs from £34 per month with no upfront charge on Virgin Media’s Freestyle tariff. That’s gets you 250 minutes and 250MB of data per month, plus unlimited texts.

Given the choice, though, we’d probably opt for the £39 per month option, which includes a more realistic monthly data allowance of 1GB, as well as 2,500 minutes and unlimited texts. Once again, there’s no upfront charge for the phone.

If those sound like competitive prices, they are. But there is a catch. And that’s the mobile internet service you get on Virgin Media is 3G, rather than the 4G and even faster Cat6 4G+ service of which the new iPhone is capable.

At the time of writing, the iPhone 6S Plus was listed on drop-down menus on Virgin Media’s site, but wasn’t available to buy. That may be just because it’s out of stock.

Or it could be that Virgin Media has opted not to stock it at all. Which isn’t out of the question given that last year’s iPhone 6 Plus appealed to a pretty niche market compared with the standard iPhone 6.

Either way, we’ve given Virgin Media’s press team a shout and we’ll report back with their answer.
