The digest of interesting materials for the mobile developer # 71 (September 15-21)

The past week was marked by the release of iOS 8 and new iPhones (they were disassembled on a screw on Habré, and for iOS 8 they already wrote a habro-keyboard), the appearance of the first Android One smartphones, stories of mobile games and several examples of mobile application testing.

How to finish the decree with benefit?

Digging into the AppStore, trying to write interesting ideas for implementation. The game should not only give rest to one of the parents, but also educate the child. We aimed at an audience of 2-4 years. We decided this: the game will teach the child figures, colors and numbers.

We develop habraklaviatura under iOS

Often for reading Habr I use Habrahabr mobile application for iPhone and iPad. It is quite convenient for reading articles, but not very convenient for writing comments, especially if you want to write something like that, using the formatting tags.

Best Instagram for Android

We spent the entire past year on Instagram for reworking and improving the Android app to make it work perfectly for all users, no matter what phone they use or where they are. We first shared this information this week at the @Scale conference.
