Apple’s MobileMe Gallery app allows iPhone users to view entire photo galleries, flick through and zoom-in on photos, view friends’ gallery photos and share links to albums. The software also automatically stores photos that have been viewed, so they can be accessed again even without a network connection. Apple says the free MobileMe Gallery app lets you view all the photos and movies published in your gallery with “a tap” of the screen.

You can create a new album or make changes to your gallery at me.com. Apple says you can upload photos directly from iPhoto ’09 or Aperture 2 with just a few clicks and the pictures and videos you take with your iPhone 3GS can be posted directly to your gallery with a few taps. The free, 0.7MB application requires iPhone OS version 3.1 or later.

Sorry, but allowing third-party iPhone app stores is a bad idea

Apple has always been known to have tight control over both its hardware and software, such as the iPhone and the iOS that powers it. However, it seems that the European Union continues to get more and more involved in regulating Apple’s most popular device, the iPhone.

So far, the EU has set a deadline for Apple to replace the Lightning port with USB-C by 2024, and more recently, it raised the possibility of opening up iOS to allow for sideloading and alternative app stores from third parties. Though this may seem like a good thing at first, I’m not so sure that’s entirely true. At the very least, it will cause some complications.
