Apple Pay
Apple Pay is the new NFC system Apple has integrated with the iPhone and Apple Watch. The API, which was only briefly mentioned during the announcement, will be huge. Payments are such a challenge for so many products in the mobile space, and this will be a game changer if done right.

In other Apple news, the company is rumored to be acquiring Path, the struggling social network app, in an attempt to bolster iOS social credibility. A source within the Apple engineering team claims the acquisition is a done deal. via PandoDaily
