While working with a client this weekend, a question came up about changing the text size on an iPhone and iPad. The default text size for them was just to small and was hard to read. The steps to change the text size are simple but a little hidden, and since I had a hard time finding information on how to do this online (in fact I could not find anyone with the correct information), here is what you need to do if you want to change the text size on any IOS 6 device (iPad / iPhone / iPod)

Google Maps Available for iPhone / iPad
Since the release of iOS 6, the biggest news in Appleland has been the removal of the Google Maps app. Its seems even the biggest Apple fan had some complaint about the Apple Maps (http://www NULL.apple NULL.com/ios/maps/) app that was released with iOS 6 as a replacement for the Google Maps program. In a letter to Apple customers (http://www NULL.apple NULL.com/letter-from-tim-cook-on-maps/), even Tim Cook admitted,
“At Apple, we strive to make world-class products that deliver the best experience possible to our customers. With the launch of our new Maps last week, we fell short on this commitment. We are extremely sorry for the frustration this has caused our customers and we are doing everything we can to make Maps better”.
Well for those with Apple iProducts who were missing their Google Maps app, ITS BACK!!!!

How to Install YouTube on iOS 6
With the release of the iPhone 5 and iOS6, one of the “BIG” stories was the removal of the YouTube app from iOS6. Up to that point, all previous versions of iOS came with a YouTube application installed by default.
Its has been a few weeks since the release of iOS 6, yet I still find users who are surprised when they realize iOS 6 does not have YouTube by default. Most everyone seems to assume that with all the Apple vs. Google court cases and the change from Google Maps to the new Apple Maps program, that YouTube was just going away because Apple wanted to nothing to do with Google. In the case of YouTube, that appears not to be the case.
