With the arrival of iOS 14 last year, Apple added cycling directions directly into the Maps app. This new feature adds a lot of useful information for cyclists, but it's only supported in certain areas. The good news is that availability is expanding quite a bit today.
Responding to concerns that its new personal item tracker, dubbed AirTag, could be used to secretly track individuals, Apple has now responded by laying out new details about the safety features that the company built into its Find My network to prevent unwanted tracking.
Apple's AirTag is a small disc, and it's designed to help you find lost items. It's very similar to many other item trackers out there. Except for one, potentially very important detail.
Way, way back in 2019 (which feels like forever ago), the first rumor regarding Apple's Tile-like item tracking device surfaced. We've been hearing about the device that would eventually be called AirTag off-and-on ever since. But it was only this month that Apple finally made the product officially official.
Apple has started to roll out suggested words on the App Store to speed up your searches.
If you were following along yesterday, a bevy of updates to jailbreak-centric software with support for iOS & iPadOS 14.5 were released. This included checkra1n, Cydia Substrate, and Substitute to name a few.
But the updates didn’t stop there. Odyssey Team Web and App Developer @23Aaron_ pushed an update for the macOS-based Betelguese Odysseyra1n installer for checkra1n’d devices, officially bringing it up to version 1.1.
The keyboard is an integral part of the iPhone’s operating system that users will interface with just about every day. It does everything it’s supposed to do right out of the box, yet Apple doesn’t offer much by way of personalization. That’s just one of many reasons why the keyboard is one of the most popular things to customize upon jailbreaking.
One of the latest jailbreak tweaks to lend a hand in this department is a paid release called ProKeys by iOS developer Justin Proulx, which features eye-catching aesthetics like RGB coloring and animations, along with haptic feedback, among other things.
Apple did something right when they made it possible for users to use a Haptic Touch/3D Touch gesture on individual Home Screen app icons to reveal hidden menus.
Following the launch of checkra1n version 0.12.3, which added official support for A7 and A11 devices running iOS & iPadOS 14.5, Saurik was quick to update Cydia Substrate so that those devices could enjoy reliable tweak injection.
But Cydia Substrate isn’t the only tweak injection method that works on the checkra1n jailbreak. So too does Substitute, and users of this alternative will likely be looking for a similar update. Fortunately for those folks, said update is now available in the form of Substitute version 2.0.11.
The checkra1n jailbreak tool was updated to version 0.12.3 Thursday afternoon with official support for iOS & iPadOS 14.5 on A7-A11-equipped devices.
Worthy of note, checkra1n users are more likely than any other modern jailbreak user to be taking advantage of Cydia Substrate for tweak injection, so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that Cydia Substrate received a similar update on the same day.
It’s been a hot minute since the checkra1n jailbreak tool received its last update, and given how much has changed since then, it was only a matter of time before it would receive one.
The latest update comes to us this Thursday afternoon in the form of checkra1n version 0.12.3 with official support for up to iOS & iPadOS 14.5 and preliminary support for Apple’s latest M1-equipped Macs along with various bug fixes.
Apple introduced the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro earlier this month, at the company's Spring Loaded event. The new big tablet features a mini-LED display, and, because of that, a slightly thicker frame. Which led to some issues with the current Magic Keyboard.
