  • When Apple introduced MagSafe, the immediate focus then and now has always been on wireless charging. Over the years, I have realized that some of the best aspects of the MagSafe ecosystem are not actually the charging aspect, but also the mounting capabilities. The ability to just snap your iPhone onto a magnetic surface and trust it to hold has opened up a whole new category of accessories. A perfect example of this is the Scosche MagicMount Flask. It takes an everyday item you already carry to the gym or the park and turns it into a highly functional iPhone mount. more…
  • Last week, OpenAI released an all-new version of Codex for Mac that includes the best example of AI-driven computer use yet. Today, Codex for Mac is taking its recently gained memory feature further with a feature OpenAI calls Chronicle. more…
  • I bought my first house earlier this year, so being the nerd that I am, I’ve prioritized turning my house into a smart home. First on the list was a smart lock. I knew I wanted something with the best possible HomeKit integration, and the Aqara UWB Smart Lock U400 seemed to fit that bill on paper. So far, I’ve been highly impressed thanks to Ultra Wideband support. more…

  • Apple Watch includes a built-in sleep tracking feature. Just wear your Apple Watch to bed, and it works automatically. No need to install apps or enter a special mode. watchOS 26 takes sleep tracking further with Apple’s sleep score feature. Sleep score is a great way to visualize the quality of your sleep from night to night. There’s one setting in particular that has made sleep score especially useful for me. more…
  • Coincidence or not, the latest Android folding smartphones mirror the form factor we’re expecting from the iPhone Ultra (now believed to be Apple’s branding for what was previously referred to as the iPhone Fold). The Oppo Find N6 last month gave us a look at something very similar to the creaseless display we’re expecting Apple to offer, and today an extensive unboxing and hands-on of the Huawei Pura X Max 5G provides a video look at a device with much the same format we’re expecting from the iPhone Ultra … more…

  • Developers are arguing that Apple’s App Store ratings are fundamentally broken in at least a couple of different ways – including the fact that your 4-star rating could do more harm than good. They also highlight the conflict between users not wanting their app experience to be interrupted, while Apple effectively forces developers to nag you for a rating and review … more…
  • Apple has said that it could potentially be fined a massive $38 billion in an antitrust battle taking place in India after it refused to cooperate with the regulator. Yep, that’s billion with a B. The iPhone maker has persistently refused to submit financial data required by the Competition Commission of India (CCI) after being found guilty of abusing its dominant position in the smartphone market … more…
  • To put it simply: Apple Silicon is Mac minis are impossible to find. There’s a variety of reasons for this – like OpenClaw and other computer-use agents. But there’s also a group of people buying up high-end Macs with swaths of unified memory, which are incredible for running local LLMs. While I’m sure Apple appreciates the additional hardware sales, I think they could push this even further – by entering a segment they’ve thus far ignored. more…
  • WWDC26 is just under 2 months away, where Apple will unveil its next generation of iOS, macOS, watchOS, and so on. Rumors for iOS 27 have so far indicated that this year’s release will mostly be focused on stability, with limited new features beyond Apple finally delivering on its AI promises. Even though iOS 27 won’t have anything major, there still will be a few light customization features – and one of them will let you quickly undo and redo changes on your home screen. more…
  • Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says that Apple’s WWDC26 artwork has already given us our first look at the new design for Siri coming as part of iOS 27. Apple’s voice assistant will finally be getting the revamp it deserves in iOS 27, with a bunch of new functionality and a new look. Gurman says the new Siri design includes visual elements that resemble the glow effect seen in the WWDC26 poster art. It is reportedly most striking when the iPhone is used in dark mode, which is why the WWDC art used a black background. more…
  • A lot of us are impatiently awaiting the next-generation of MacBook Pro, which is expected to feature a bevy of updates including a new OLED display with Dynamic Island cutout, a touch screen a la iPad and iPhone, and the more powerful M6 Pro and M6 Max chip. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman is today reporting in his newsletter that Apple is facing some production issues due to the industry-wide memory shortages. Supply constraints mean that the MacBook Pro launch is slightly delayed, and possibly won’t arrive until early next year. more…
  • In the latest edition of Mark Gurman’s Bloomberg newsletter, he reports that the new generation of Mac Studio may not arrive until October. The current Mac Studio is offered in M3 Ultra and M4 Max configurations, albeit with long shipping delays and several models now completely out of stock. A refresh is certainly due. However, supply chain constraints are apparently impacting Apple’s ability to deliver the (likely M5-powered) Mac Studio update. Gurman says that Apple had been aiming for a release around the middle of the year, but now that has been pushed back several months. more…
  • The Jessica Chastain thriller series, The Savant, was originally set to air on Apple TV last September. However, the company decided to cancel the release at the eleventh hour. Star Jessica Chastain said she was ‘not aligned’ with Apple on the decision. As months passed, many doubted if the series would ever make it to air. But finally, Chastain herself confirmed to Variety that “we’re going to see it”. Variety indicates that Apple is targeting a July release date, although that is not yet officially confirmed. more…
  • Apple has a chip problem. MacBook Neo is selling far better than the company had expected, and now it seems like there aren’t enough binned A18 Pro chips to keep the production run going for another 6-12 months before a new version is released. Some have floated the idea of Apple axing the 256GB trim, and just using an unbinned A18 Pro chip in the 512GB trim. That’s certainly plausible. I do wonder though, how can Apple prevent this from happening with every forthcoming MacBook Neo? more…
  • Apple has already unveiled numerous products to date, including new versions of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, the iPad Air, the all-new MacBook Neo, and more. Despite having a busy season thus far, there’s still much more in the pipeline worth waiting for. more…

However, it now appears malware authors are already deploying workarounds. more…
  • I love MagSafe batteries and by this point, I have probably tested hundreds of them. There are plenty of great options out there with different capacities, charging speeds, built-in cables, and diagnostic displays, and there seems to be a MagSafe battery variant for any situation. But the feature I like most is thinness. While it’s great to have 10,000 mAh in a battery, that adds too much extra bulk in most daily cases. So over the last few months, I have been on the hunt for slim MagSafe batteries that add the least amount of bulk to my iPhone. These are the three best ones I’ve tested so far. more…
  • A recent study found that around a third of AI app users are having deeply personal conversations with the chatbots.

Fortunately, there are simple steps you can take to manage this … more…

Apple recently announced that the device management portion of its new Apple Business platform is now completely free. If you manage a fleet of Apple devices, this immediately caught your attention. It’s the first free device management system I can remember since Meraki’s System Manager. Giving small businesses a free tool to manage their Macs and iPhones is a huge win for the ecosystem. However, if you are an IT administrator looking at your current device management renewal and wondering if you can just cancel it and move everything to Apple, you need to pump the brakes a bit.
