Remains of the Day: Instagram Amends its New Terms of Service

Remains of the Day: Instagram Amends its New Terms of ServiceInstagram reverts to its former advertising policy, an iOS patch may drain your battery, you can now search your online purchases via Google, and Amazon may offer its own version of Apple Care.

  • Updated Terms of Service Based on Your Feedback As a result of user feedback, Instagram has amended the Advertising section of its Terms of Service. Those guidelines will remain the same as they were in 2010, when the network launched. [Instagram Blog]
  • iOS 6.0.2 Suspected of Draining Batteries The latest iOS patch for iPhone 5 and iPad Mini released to amend a bug that had some users experience difficulty staying connected to Wi-Fi networks may have brought another problem with it. A few users are reporting that since updating, their iPhone's batteries have started to drain much faster than usual. However, some theorize that this is merely the software experiencing difficulty estimating actual power levels, and that letting it drain and recharging could solve the problem. [Ars Technica]
  • New Search Feature You can now search for online purchases that you've made via Google. Simply use the query [my purchases], and Google will search your Gmail for all of your orders. Since this feature?much like the already-active [my flights] query that allows you to search for tickets?essentially searches your inbox from the regular Search bar/page, you won't be able to use it unless you have a Gmail account. [Google+]
  • Is Amazon Working on its Own Version of AppleCare for Kindle products? A trademark application suggests that Amazon is looking to offer its own extended warranty service that uses language almost identical to Apple Care. The service would cover its Kindle devices, but the applications also hint at a full range of electronic hardware. [GigaOm]
