Macworld The updated iPad Pro announced earlier this month isn’t exactly a groundbreaking launch: the design, color options, screen, camera, and price are all the same as on the previous model. Essentially it’s just a processor bump, with the tablet moving from an M4 to an M5 chip. But the next model is set for something a little different. According to a new report, the M6 iPad Pro will get a new cooling feature along with its updated chipset. In the latest edition of his Power On newsle...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts

Macworld Apple shouldn’t feel too bad about not being able to figure out cars. It doesn’t seem like the CEO of GM has figured them out, either. In an interview conducted by The Verge, GM CEO Mary Barra indicated the company would be doubling down on its plan to give customers a lousy user experience, claiming its decision to ditch CarPlay was: …a very Jobsian approach to things. He could be very aggravating, yes. The Macalope assumes that’s what you were talking about. CEOs love to co...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts

Macworld If you think Apple Maps’ job is to offer an unbiased guide to the streets, buildings, and businesses in a given part of the world, you may need to wise up. Because Apple is expected to sell prominent positions in its search rankings as soon as next year, according to a new report. Three years ago, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported that Apple was mulling a plan to bring more advertising to iOS. This could include Apple Books and Podcasts, he said, along with a cheaper tier of Apple...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts
Macworld The social media network formerly known as Twitter has announced that it is retiring the Twitter.com domain on November 10. That probably won’t mean much to most people’s day-to-day use, with one big exception: security. The X Safety account posted a message that says users who use a physical security key or virtual passkey as their two-factor authentication (2FA) method will need to re-enroll their key to continue accessing the site. After November 10, the account reports, accou...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts
Macworld You may not think much about it, but the virtual keyboard is one of the most essential parts of how the iPhone works. Over the years, Apple has made countless refinements to make typing easier, from auto-correct and predictive suggestions to swipe typing and smarter layouts. However, since the release of iOS 26 last month, a growing number of users have been complaining that something feels off. If you’ve noticed more typos than usual, you’re not alone. And it turns out there rea...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts
Macworld Hate to say I told you so, but… you know. I told you so. Yep, this is going to be one of those articles. Two and a half months before it was announced, I predicted that the iPhone 17 Air would be a flop. And now the first post-launch research is in, and (with the usual caveats about lack of official sales numbers) it looks like I was right: one report says Apple has “drastically” cut back on production orders and another says there’s “virtually no consumer demand.” The on...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts
Macworld While the rest of the world was waiting for the M5 iPad Pro earlier this month, I decided to buy an M4 iPad Pro, just days before Apple dropped its big M5 announcement, in fact. Yes, I knew the M5 iPad Pro was imminent. But the deal I got on the previous generation model was compelling enough that I didn’t hesitate. When the M5 model arrived last week, I was still within my return window. However, after digging into what’s new on the new iPad Pro, I’ve concluded that going for ...| Macworld - News, Tips & Reviews from the Apple Experts

iPhone sales are important! That’s about as obvious as a dog-bites-man statement can get. This year, early reports suggest sales of the iPhone 17 might be a little better than expected, but there’s no accompanying surge for the iPhone Air. What does it all mean?! On one level, not a lot: Apple’s still going to sell a zillion iPhones, in the end. The profits will roll on.
