Theranos. The company that had a very rocky go of things, which is putting it lightly. So of course there's going to be a movie about the whole thing. And after years of trying to get it up off the ground, it looks like Apple will finally be the one to help the theatrical story get out into the world.
In today's world, it's not a big surprise when we hear that some companies are selling off data related to their users. It happens all the time, and many companies have made a killing from it. It's big business. Unfortunately, some companies you just hope it doesn't turn out to be that way. Like one that's designed around a "family safety platform."
Apple TV+ already has itself an award from the Critics Choice Association, racking up a win on the back of Billy Crudup's performance in The Morning Show last year from the Critics Choice Awards. And now the streaming service has the possibility of winning a few more.
The holiday season is in full swing. Which means, for almost every company out there, it's about that time to combine standard advertising with some holiday cheer. Apple is certainly no different. And it's using its Apple TV+ streaming platform to help out this year.
Apple has had its "Everyone Can Code" curriculum in place for quite some time. It's been available for students and teachers for years, and now the company is expanding availability yet again. Apple has confirmed as much in a press release today.
It's fair to say that Apple already has a lot of devices available to buy right now. Even if you don't count the individual variants of a certain product, there is quite a bit to choose from. Different iPhones, different iPads, and several different Macs. And the accessories, of course.
If you're looking for a smooth gameplay experience, then having access to fast refresh rates is one way to achieve that. While not everyone might be able to tell the difference, for those who can there is a considerable improvement when jumping up to 60fps from 30fps. But, for iPhone users, that hasn't always been a possibility.
Apple has a tendency to shift industries, and usually that's a good thing. However, in one particular case, it appears that one of the company's newest products are being associated with something that isn't so great: car thefts. Which is surely a little frustrating, considering Apple was getting plenty of flack for not being the first to market with a small device used to track devices.
While some of the projects destined to launch on Apple TV+ take a lot of time to get up off the ground, some don't. And when you're Bill Lawrence, one of the creators tasked to bring Ted Lasso in front of a lot of eyeballs, it's no surprise that your additional projects pick up steam pretty quickly.
Moving right along here, Apple has seeded the next beta for its upcoming software update to iOS 15 and iPadOS 15. This latest update isn't the biggest by far, and it's not adding a whole suite of new forward facing features for the end user. However, the software does make some notable additions and changes.
With Apple TV+, Apple has been raking in the awards for its shows. But, when it comes to the end of the year, it's the company's turn to hand them out. We've already seen the Apple Music Awards, and now it's time for the App Store to get involved.
One of the features that macOS Monterey users are still waiting to get their hands on is SharePlay. And while the wait continues, we're at least one step closer. Apple is moving ahead with the developer betas of the software that will actually bring it to the masses.
