Apple halts update to HomeKit's new Home architecture
My issues with thread-only devices began a few months ago exactly at the time I upgraded from iOS 15 to 16 (no Betas). I did do the upgrade offered in 16.2 but Thread devices (Eve/Nanoleaf/Wemo) work for a few hours and then "no response" takes over. Apple Home is not reliable: everything works fine as long I elect not to use any Thread devices, and all the Thread devices worked flawlessly in iOS 15. Go figure! -

Some Apple HomeKit setups are breaking after iOS 16.2 update
My Home system got messed up with 16.1 and I have tried working with Apple Support for over a month. All was working great under iOS 15 but when I installed 16 (not beta) it killed all my 11 Thread devices (Eve/Wemo/Nanoleaf) but all other 34 non-Thread devices are working fine. So after numerous factory resets with still "no response" I gave up on all Thread devices and put them in storage. Apple is not serious about smart home automation. -
EU tells Apple to open everything up to its rivals
If Apple had the visceral fortitude they would promptly and concisely tell the EU to f$&k off and start closing down shop and stop selling to any EU member country. Maybe the folk there will rise up against the EU ruling class. With the expanding Asia market Apple will not fall. Sure, it will affect the stock market at first, but for Tim Cook to always tout "principles" he needs not to bow to the EU. The USB/C issue is one thing, but this new EU demand will open Apple's Pandora's box. -

iPhone 15 Pro Max delivery estimates hit October minutes into preorders
It is way past time for Apple to create a loyalty rewards program in which the only reward offered is first and trouble-free access to new releases. Your loyalty status could be based in the number of Apple products/devices associated with your Apple ID (I have over 15 to include Studio Display, mac mini, MBP, ATVs, HomePods, iPhones, iPads and five various AirPods). The most loyal brand cutomers should get a special site to order. -
Apple Savings is expected to finally launch on April 17
I have had a HY savings with Goldman Sachs (Marcus) for a few years now and the rate I am getting is almost 4% now with no mandatory requirements other than having to use the Marcus app for access (good App). I am guessing Apple/GS will offer the same terms. AENB also offers same rate HY savings account. -
