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!!!!

Apple: New iPhone–iPhone 4S now confirmed
Updates as of 2:45 p -
Many things will be coming out in the next hour or 2 concerning the new Apple iPhone 5 and the rumored 2nd version of the iPhone. It seems just short of the announcement from Apple (scheduled for 10 am PST), there is now 1 thing that can be confirmed
There will be 2 phones released by Apple this year. There will be an iPhone 5 (based on all the hype and information so far) and there will also be an iPhone 4S edition (rumored to be the lower end / cheaper version).
The iPhone 4S seems to now be confirmed based on the Apple Tokyo site (LINK) http://www.apple.com/jp/retail/ginza/#onetoone_browser_gettingstarted (http://www NULL.apple NULL.com/jp/retail/ginza/#onetoone_browser_gettingstarted)
which is now showing an iPhone 4S listed on its site.

UPDATE: @ 2:40p –>
Prices for the iPhone 4S are as follows:
$199 for 16 gigabytes of storage,
$299 for 32 GB, and
$399 for 64 GB.
There will be an iPhone 4 with 8 GB for $99. And there will be an iPhone 3GS for… free, with a two-year contract.
Preorders for the 4S start Oct. 7, delivery on the 14th.
Sprint gets it too! So a world phone on three out of four major networks
So it seems that there is NO iPhone 5 (Don’t believe all the rumors). The new iPhone is the 4S. The only rumor that appears to be correct is that yes Sprint will also have iPhones.
