It has been over a year since we last heard about the upcoming international drama Pachinko, which is set in not only South Korea, but also Japan and the United States. To that end, the series is also told across three languages, and while it has grand ambitions about its scale, it's still meant to be an intimate story.
CODA is one of the best films available to watch on Apple TV+. It has also picked up quite a few award nominations and wins since its debut in 2021. Of course, earning several different Oscar nominations really helps it stand out. And just in case you're someone who is swayed by those types of nominations, and you feel okay going out to a theater, you'll be able to see the film on the big screen, at no cost to you, for a limited time.
Throughout the year 2020, Apple TV+ was on a bit of a tear announcing new projects and first-look signings. But the whole entertainment industry was rattled by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, including Apple. So while many projects probably could have seen the light of day in 2021, that didn't end up happening. So now it's a bit of an avalanche.
News first broke about a new dramatic, limited TV series called The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey back in 2020. Things got quiet throughout 2021, but now that 2022 is here we can actually look forward to watching it. And to help build up some attention, we finally have the first official trailer.
In mid-January, Apple TV+ announced that it had secured the streaming rights to another documentary series. This one is called Lincoln's Dilemma, and as the title might suggest, will focus primarily on President Lincoln. But, of course, it's a documentary series so it will be digging much deeper than surface level content.
Here's a breakdown of the new films and TV series premiering on Apple TV+ throughout February 2022.
The Apple TV app supports adding your favorite sports team(s), letting you get notified when they are about to start playing, or even when exciting things are happening in the game. And it looks like Apple wants to make it so you can get more information about your favorite teams from another app. And it may arrive with the next software update for iOS.
Some projects for Apple TV+ get plenty of attention long before we ever see a trailer. We hear about initial casting or even just that a certain director/writer is attached to a project Apple has secured for its video streaming service. Less often, though, is a project that ultimately goes under the radar almost entirely until its premiere date.
While it's technically true in every ecosystem, it's particularly egregious in Apple's: staying productive is typically defined by the products we use. It's why folks who watched the MacBook Pro evolve into something far less "pro" were so adamant Apple was losing touch. Removing features in a device that's meant to get a lot of work done isn't a great move.
tvOS 15.4 lets your Apple TV join captive Wi-Fi networks, which are networks that require additional sign-in steps like in hotel rooms, with a little help from your iPhone or iPad.
tvOS 15.4 adds an Up Next list directly to the Apple TV video player for easier access to your queue of movies and television shows you've started to watch or plan on watching.
Way back in the day, somewhere around the 2016 mark, Apple reached a major milestone: 1 billion active devices globally. And if the quarterly earnings tell us anything on a regular basis, Apple has been steadily adding to those numbers. Which is why it's not surprising to hear the company's getting closer and closer to another milestone.
