Apple Inc shares were trading more than 2% higher in opening of trade on Wednesday, after the company declared record 4 quarter results in Tuesday after market closing. The segment, with $12.5 billion in revenue during the quarter, is now the company’s second-largest segment (behind Apple’s Americas segment) and well ahead of Europe revenue, which was $10.6 billion during the quarter.

McLeod’s team submitted a video showing the app in action with an iPhone but were strictly told off that “the concept of a scale app was not appropriate for the App Store”. Apparently this is made possible through an interesting app called Gravity.
In a world, where we find most smartphones makers increasingly adopt smaller product cycles, Apple stands out with their decision to create a new design of the iPhone only once every couple of years.
Every week, Apple gives away a premium paid app or game for free to iPhone, iPad, iPod touch users. Tap on the Airplay button you’ll see there. Even more, Cook said he expects more robust growth, calling the opportunity “a major growth vector for the future”.
