As soon as the iPhone 5s hit the market the iPhone 6 rumor mill began churning, and claims of varying sizes, shapes, release dates and new functionality are now all over the web. At this point, the one rumor that has gathered the most steam is that it will be available in two different sizes. Pictures of a pair of alleged prototype iPhone 6 cases have emerged, and seem to lend credence to that rumor.

MobileFun recently received a picture of two supposed iPhone 6 prototype cases lying side by side. The source of the photo is not entirely clear, so, as usual, take it with with a grain of salt. Aside from the two different sizes, it appears that there is a cutout on the right side of each case (left side in the pictures). This supports KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo research note from earlier this week that suggested

After an "accidental" release to the New Zealand App Store, and an epic hissy fit by FOX, TinyCo's Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff is finally available for mobile devices. The game is another painfully slow resource management title where you must rebuild Quahog after it is destroyed by The Giant Chicken and Peter Griffin.

Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff is horribly boring. While TinyCo did a great job of capturing the essence of the television show, the game suffers because all you do is wait around for timers. You can of course speed things up by spending real life cash.

The popular iPad weather app, Morning, is now available for the iPhone. Morning by Tamper was selected by Apple as one of the best apps of 2013. It is a minimalist app designed to "make your routine easier" by allowing you to customize various "panels" for Weather, News, Stocks and so on.

Users can easily keep track of six categories at one time and select which category is featured front and center. Each category also features its own edit button and different customization options. For example, you can set the Weather panel to show you the high and low, humidity, wind speed and so on in a different country. The Time/Date category features a 24 hour clock, and the Reminders panel is capable of syncing to your device's Reminders app. The other panels include a Commute option for traffic updates, a daily Calendar, and a Countdown timer so you will never miss another appointment.

Atari riled up RollerCoaster Tycoon fans by teasing them with the hashtag #RCT4M on Twitter for a few weeks before dropping an official trailer in March. However, the only release info announced was that the game would be available sometime in the "early spring," and it looks like spring has officially arrived.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile popped up on the App Store this morning for $2.99. The mobile version of the hit franchise allows users to create and share their own amusement park on their iPod touch, iPhone or iPad. The game includes 20 pre-designed coasters, over 50 different attractions, restaurants, concession stands and so on. Users can also unlock new materials and share roller coaster blueprints with other users.

Facebook is determined to make its iOS app even more useless by forcing users to download its standalone Messenger app. According to various sources, the company plans to remove the ability for users to send and receive messages directly from the main Facebook app.

Facebook has already begun sending notifications about the change to some users in Europe. These users will have around two weeks before Facebook rips the messaging tab from their apps. This will either force people to download Facebook Messenger, or cause them to only contact their friends through Facebook’s mobile website. Facebook eventually plans to implement this system worldwide.
