My seven and a half year-old iPhone 5S got a security update in the late spring. I’m sure Apple’s not worried. It’s Android OEMs that should be. 

Sweeney can go jump in the lake. It’s not up to him to try to change Apple’s policies. If he doesn’t like them he doesn’t put his games on the App Store. There are reasons I and others buy iPhones and one of which is a vetted and cared-for App Store where I can find quality apps. 

Sounds like the right way to approach it. You also don’t want a bunch of randoms trying it out just for kicks and potentially braking something. Basically you want serious or just interested parties trying it on. 

The EU is engaging in massive overreach. They don’t have the understanding or technical expertise to demand one charger. And what happens when a better system is developed? Or do they not bother because the precious EU might not like it? I’m Canadian and I’m fine with Lightning.

Also looks like the hiking routes features in Maps will make apps like All Trails a bit less necessary to download (great app btw)

Since the hiking routes are US only, other nations can and will still use All Trails where it’s available.

Well, unfortunately none of the European users told the American company what to do so nice that you are showing your empathy for our plight. Thank you. 

Sadly it’s the politicians who are telling a tech company what to do. They just want to Androidize Apple. EU citizens need to tell their representatives that they don’t agree with this. Apple doesn’t want to keep losing billions in fines by sticking the course. Heck on-device AI should be a GOOD thing for privacy. And privacy means no interoperability. Threema is a good example. It’s its own thing and you can’t log in with your WhatsApp credentials or connect your WA contacts to it. iOS being a monolith is what enables it to keep user info private.

Distracted driving most likely. Probably from the driver looking at his iPhone 14 instead of watching the road.

If you re-read the article you’ll see that it was the PASSENGER’s iPhone 14 that detected the crash. Don’t be an ass. 

How is the Apple Watch 9’s double tap any different from the pinch and clench gestures that came out a few years ago as Accessibility gestures? I got those working on my Series 6 and I can go forward and back with a single or double pinch (tap index and thumb together) and clench fist to confirm. This is changeable and can also trigger shortcuts. 

It’s not “the Ukraine” just like you don’t say “the America” or “the Canada”. It’s just “Ukraine”. Please fix.  Especially now with russia still bombing it and killing citizens daily, Ukraine needs us to recognize it properly. 

For your readers outside the United States, the ban and disabling of the blood oxygen feature is US only. In Canada I’m very happily using it with my Series 10. Please include that US only fact in your reporting.
