While iOS 12 does not actually bring out official support for allowing multiple people to register their face with Face ID on a single iPhone X device, nor does it enable horizontal unlock as previously thought, customers are now permitted to at least set up an alternate appearance—a feature that can effectively be used to have an iPhone X recognize a second person.
iOS 11 is now installed on 81% of Apple's over a billion active iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices in the wild, up from the 76% adoption rate reported on April 25. By contrast, Android Oreo versions powered less than six percent of active Android-driven smartphones and tablets that had been accessing Google's Play Store during a seven-day period ending on May 7, 2018.
After announcing the winner of the fantasy draft, Cody and Sebastien share their overview of the WWDC 2018 keynote and all the announcements made for iOS, watchOS, tvOS, and macOS.
Apple on Monday unveiled the next major software update for its iPhones and iPads: iOS 12. The update brings about a number of new features and improvements, including faster performance, group FaceTime calling with up to 32 people, tons of new stuff for AR and Animoji, and much more.
As it does every year during WWDC, Apple has announced the winners of this year's Design Awards. These awards are typically given out to apps and games that set themselves apart for any number of reasons including user experience, functionality, audio and visual design, and more.
In addition to all of the software announcements made today, Apple also introduced new colorways for its line of Apple Watch bands and iPhone cases. The summer-themed shades are Peach, Sky Blue and Marine Green, and you can find them in the silicone Apple Watch Sport Bands, as well as the silicone cases for the iPhone 8, 8 Plus and iPhone X.
When tvOS 12 releases in the fall, your Apple TV 4K is going to become the only streaming player featuring both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos approval, according to both Apple itself and Dolby Laboratories. But what's so great about Dolby Atmos sound?
Heads up for folks with an original (Series 0) Apple Watch. The watchOS 5 update, which Apple announced earlier today during its WWDC keynote, will not support the older hardware. Everyone else is safe though: watchOS 5 supports Series 1, 2 and 3 models.
Version 5 of Apple's wearable platform is a sizable update. It includes a new Competitions feature, which allows you to challenge your friends to 7-day fitness competitions, a new Walk-Talkies communications app, support for the Podcasts app, and much more.
The original Apple Watch was first unveiled on September 9, 2014, and it wasn't available to buy until April 2015. A device losing update support after just 3 years is uncharacteristic of Apple, and wow do we feel bad for owners of those $10K+ Edition Watches.
Here’s a look back at the WWDC 2018. Included here are first looks at iOS 12, watchOS 5, tvOS 12, and macOS Mojave. What was your favorite new feature to come out of the event?
Apple today previewed tvOS 12, the next major version of its living room operating system designed for enjoying digital entertainment on your big screen TV. The upgraded software will release some time this fall alongside other OS updates as a free update for your Apple TV.
Among the new features introduced in iOS 12 are some new gestures for iPad. It wasn't mentioned on stage (at least we don't recall seeing it), but Apple is bringing iPhone X-esque gestures to its tablet with the latest iOS update.
Shortly after its WWDC 2018 keynote address ended on Monday, Apple seeded the first betas of iOS 12, macOS Mojave, tvOS 12 and watchOS 5 to developers. Registered developers can download the new updates from the Dev Center, or over-the-air after installing the necessary certificates.
