It looks like the folks at Apple are feeling festive as they’ve released the details of their annual Twelve Days Of Christmas app. This new download is available to users of the iPhone 4S and all previous models and is the manufacturers’ way of saying thank you to all of their customers.
The Twelve Days Of Christmas app is available on the iTunes App Store and can be downloaded directly to the iPhone 4S or to a home computer that will automatically sync the download to your phone if you’re using the excellent iCloud service. Although the new application is already available, it does not officially start until December 26. On this day and for the next 11 days, Apple will send a gift to the user. This gift will be an audio track, a music video, an app or a book. Apple will send a push notification to your iPhone 4S when your gift is ready and then all you need to do is click a button and it will be installed on your phone. The impressive thing about this application is that the quality of the gifts that are given is very high. It would be easy for Apple to send you music from unknown bands and games that no one has ever heard of, but they tend to deliver some really good surprises. Last year’s lineup included some big names like Cheryl Cole, Kings Of Leon and Michael Buble.
The iPhone 4S is the perfect phone to make the most of these gifts that are sent to you. The audio player that is built into the phone is one of the best. It uses the same software that was used in the excellent iPod Touch device, which means you’re presented with high-quality cover art and numerous ways to select the track you want to listen to. Video playback is equally impressive thanks to the model using the highest quality mobile display available. Known as the Retina display, this screen can produce a resolution of 640 x 960. As a result, the phone manages to display 326 pixels per inch, a level that exceeds what the human eye can detect. This screen is not only perfect for music videos, but also for any gaming applications you may receive. The screen is a capacitive touch screen that allows you to perform all controls and maneuvers on the screen.
Apple tends to give away great gifts as part of this application and the iPhone 4S is ideal for making the most of them. The phone offers an excellent music player and a high-quality screen ideal for gaming and video playback.
