The best sports scores and news tracking app »
After much research, testing, and comparing, we’ve picked Yahoo Sports as the best overall sports app for iPhone. It’s been my go-to app of choice since it was launched in the early days of the App Store.
It features a clean design, customizable push notifications, relevant news, and in-depth results for your favorite games. ESPN and theScore are both worthy alternatives, but neither of them can replace Yahoo Sports on my homescreen.

How to add scheduled deliveries to your calendar »
Deliveries for iOS is our favorite package delivery tracker. I’ve been using it for a number of years, and it’s still an app I wouldn’t want to live without.
One of the features I’ve just started using is putting delivery dates on my calendar. Enabling it is just a matter of a few taps.
Six Colors: Apple’s annual iteration »
Apple held a media event earlier this week in which they announced a new iteration of the iPhone, Watch, and a few other things.

Jason Snell, Six Colors, wrote up a short summary about the new iterations and products announced this week, along with some insightful commentary. If you’re behind on Apple news this week, this is a good place to start.
