Apple iOS 7 Apparently Breaks Supervision Profiles For Schools


Lots of Schools use Apple;s iPad in their classrooms, and the iPads that are used in schools are setup with supervision profiles and also filters to restrict what content can be used on the devices.

Now it would appear that iOS 7 is causing an issue where it is removing the supervision profiles and filters from iPads that are used in some schools.

Some schools have had to take the iPads back from students, completely wipe the device and then do a fresh install of iOS 7 to fix the issue, other schools are are blocking devices from updating to iOS 7.

Apple has yet to acknowledge the issue, although we presume that a fix will come in a future release of Apple iOS 7.

PayPal revamps its iOS and Android apps

PayPal has launched new version of its iOS and Android apps, and they now look better than ever. And we’re not talking about minor tweaks here; rather the whole UI has been revamped from the ground up and many new features have been added to make for a that much better user experience.

From the “Shop” tab you can find shops or restaurants nearby that accept PayPal payments. While there, you can also “check in” and open a tab with a single swipe. There’s also the ability to change how you want to pay from here, providing you with access to your entire wallet in the app. And after you’ve paid, you’ll see PayPal’s confirmation alert and the usual PayPal email receipt. No money to pay? No problem – in the new app, you can open a line of credit using Bill Me Later.

While at a “PayPal friendly” restaurant you can now order ahead and bypass the line. More than a thousand Eat24 locations are already included, with more restaurants and cafes coming soon. Or you can check-in to view your bill, give a tip and pay your restaurant bill through the application. Heck, you can even order another drink from the app at some locations.

Finally, PayPal Offers come included in the new application. $100 is available in your PayPal app from local US businesses, and these offers are automatically redeemed at checkout. Check how it all comes together in the following video.
