The US Department of Justice is suing Google on antitrust grounds and now a new report alleges that Apple is exploring building its own search tech amid Google antitrust scrutiny.
In a rather unsurprising move, Apple closed the signing window for iOS & iPadOS 14.0.1 Tuesday evening, one full week after unleashing iOS & iPadOS 14.1 to the general public to introduce various bug fixes and improvements for the company’s user base.
By closing the signing window for this particular version of firmware, Apple has effectively built a firewall against those wanting to downgrade their iPhone or iPad’s firmware for one reason or another. But this shouldn’t take anyone by shock; after all, Apple loves being in control of its users and signaling what they can and can’t do with their devices. This is nothing new.
Apple has ordered “Platonic,” a comedy series starring Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen. The 10-episode series will launch exclusively on Apple TV+, but Apple stopped short of saying when.
The MacBook Pro is currently out of stock at Apple's online and retail stores, with new deliveries arriving in mid-November, according to German-language blog Macerkopf.de. As you know, Apple is widely rumored to be holding an online-only product presentation around mid-November to supposedly announce the first Mac model powered by its own silicon.
If you have one of the new iPhone 12 models, you'll be pleased to learn that your handset boosts the Internet performance of devices that are connected to its Personal Hotspot by using a faster 5GHz Wi-Fi connection (if available) for hotspot tethering.
Apple today updated its Apple Music for Android client with new capabilities like a crossfade feature which Apple supports in the Music app for macOS but not in its iOS counterpart.
“Warp Drive - Teleport Racing!“ is another coming-soon Apple Arcade title. The game will bring a unique mechanic to the core of the racing experience: teleporting around the track to reach different areas. This will let you do things like jump huge gaps, drive on the ceiling, overtake the opponents in unexpected ways and more (sounds like “Wipeout“ to me).
“Crash Bandicoot: On The Run!” is coming to the iPhone and iPad in Spring 2021 via publisher Activision and mobile developer King, which is behind the popular Candy Crush series.
Tucked away as a side-note in today’s report by The China Times newspaper outlining the first Apple Silicon products is a mention of Apple’s next-generation A15 system-on-a-chip.
According to a new report published this morning in Chinese-language newspaper The China Times, Apple will release its first iMac all-in-one desktop featuring the company's in-house designed A14T chip, code-named Mt. Jade, in the first half of next year.
Apple has used the color blue to accentuate buttons, sliders, and more for as long as I can remember. But if you have a favorite color besides blue, then you might find it disappointing that Apple doesn’t offer any way to customize these color accentuations out of the box.
That’s where a newly released jailbreak tweak called Twister by iOS developer SouthernGirlWhoCode can help. This tweak provides users with the option to change iOS’ default accentuation color for the aforementioned interface elements, and it does so in a fashion that looks and feels like it was made Apple themselves.
The addition of dark mode support was perhaps one of the biggest new features of last year’s iOS 13 release, and it’d be an understatement to say that Apple delivered a wonderful dark mode-centric user experience. On a stock device, dark mode can be toggled on or off from the Settings app, or via Control Center if the user has added the dark mode toggle module.
But for those who are too lazy to deal with either of the above options, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called FloatingDarkMode by iOS developer Ethan Whited brings an always-accessible dark mode toggle button to jailbroken handsets that floats over any user interface.
