Apple's contractors in Cork, Ireland were expected to listen to a thousand audio clips of Siri recordings every shift, according to employees who had their contracts terminated this week after the company suspended the controversial Siri grading program last month.
This week saw the introduction of the "Shazam Discovery" playlist, but apparently Apple wasn't quite done with the new options for Apple Music.
If you use a modern semi-tethered jailbreak such as Chimera or unc0ver, then you probably already know the importance of keeping your device up and running for as long as possible. If your device reboots for any reason, then you’ll need to re-run the respective jailbreak app to access to your jailbreak tweaks and extensions.
Powering down your handset is easy, and as some would argue, perhaps too easy. With that in mind, iOS developer Paparajote Team has just released a new and free jailbreak tweak called SafePowerOff that can help you avert accidents and friendly pranks by your buddies.
Pwn20wnd’s unc0ver jailbreak has received lots of updates recently, mostly pertaining to bug fixes and stability improvements centric to the newfangled iOS 12.4 support that came by way of an updated Sock Puppet exploit under a week ago. But as you might’ve noticed, this didn’t initially include support for Apple’s latest handsets, such as the A12(X) variety.
Pwn20wnd changed that Thursday afternoon, at least partially, with the launch of unc0ver versions 3.5.4 and 3.5.5. Both updates were announced via Twitter:
The tentatively named iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max smartphones will succeed Apple's current iPhone XR, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max family at an event next month. The new handsets will reportedly heavily focus on improvements in the camera department. According to Bloomberg, the high-end models will sport significantly upgraded video recording capabilities, "getting them closer to professional video cameras," and be outfitted with a third sensor for capturing ultra-wide-angle photos and videos.
Just yesterday a report came out that detailed how several models of iPhones, along with smartphones from other manufacturers, exceed the legal limit placed for radiofrequency radiation output level.
Apple is helping to promote its Today at Apple sessions, which are already wildly popular, by bringing in successful musical artists to spruce things up.
The next iPad Pro and the low-end iPad model are both expected to pick up better cameras and upgraded Apple processors, but that's pretty much it when it comes to hardware upgrades. The new tablets will look virtually indistinguishable from the current models.
The overall size of Apple's rumored 16-inch notebook will be close to the current 15-inch MacBook Pro models because the machine will take advantage of ultra-narrow bezels to accommodate a 16-inch panel expanded from the original 15-inch one.
A free trial for a service is meant to offer everything, without an upfront cost, in an attempt to get subscribers to keep coming back and paying for it. Up until recently, Spotify's standard free trial was just one month, but that has changed.
Apple is reportedly working on a new model of its Siri-powered HomePod wireless speaker that is thought to feature just two tweeters instead of seven along with a lower price point.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman and Debby Wu have summarized their knowledge of Apple's roadmap ahead of the September 10 iPhone event, saying in a report that the company is planning to release a pair of AirPods next year that are likely to cost more than the current $159 model because they will offer features like water resistance and noise cancellation.
