macOS Monterey wallpaper variations in light and dark mode

Last week during WWDC21, Apple announced updates to all hardware system software, with macOS Monterey getting some solid screen time. New features are there, but no major updates year over year, which begs the question, why did the name move from macOS 11 to macOS 12, when it took more than a decade to justify the name change from OS X to macOS 11. I digress.

One thing the iDB Wallpapers of the Week fans were excited to get was a brand spanking new official Apple wallpaper. Today, we have creative macOS Monterey wallpaper variants for all devices.

Invoke a fake notification to get out of a pinch with Breezy

Most people can relate to being involved in one of those awkward social situations where they just can’t wait to get up and leave, but they don’t have a good reason to and don’t want to come off as rude.

Jailbreakers can achieve the Home Screen of their dreams with Paradise

If you’re looking to accomplish a custom Home Screen setup on your iPhone or iPad, then your typical options include shifting app icons to different pages or organizing them into folders. You’d be hard-pressed to customize much else, as Apple doesn’t offer many other options.

This apparent shortcoming has left the jailbreak community to do what it does best: break down Apple’s unfortunate customizability barriers by offering end users a slew of options for achieving unique Home Screen aesthetics that no one else will have – especially not those using stock, non-jailbroken handsets.

Apple Music almost has me sold on Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos

I can still remember what it was like hauling around a portable CD player with me everywhere I went back in my high school days. That was before MP3s really took off. Forking over money for some worthwhile headphones was worth it back then, maybe even more so than it is today for most use cases. But that digital takeover was inevitable, and, eventually, I was hauling around all sorts of different MP3 players instead of that CD player.
