The App Store has been the focal point of a lot of scrutiny lately. And it appears that Apple is finally ready to start making some changes based on that feedback, at least in part.

Recently, T-Mobile underwent a massive security breach that resulted in the data of millions of customers being accessed and, in some cases, sold off by the hacker who stole the data.

Things got a bit interesting when Apple went with "iPhone X" and then "iPhone XS" to then go with "iPhone 11" and opt for "iPhone 12" immediately after that. And apparently a lot of people out there think Apple should go with "iPhone 12S" this year, rather than "iPhone 13."
If things pan out the way many expect, Apple is going to announce a new iPhone lineup, along with plenty of other devices, in the early part of September.
