Xed said: I miss being able to move home screens and icons around from inside macOS. Previously this was done within the iTunes app. Doing this on an iPhone can be a laborious task since you can't move the entire screen, only a single icon at…

Only Apple's abandoned car project has been more rudderless than Apple's home/IoT strategy. The early potential that HomeKit provided was squandered by the reluctance to re-enter the hardware market again, and inability to give attention to anything…

JBL brought wireless earbuds that have a display in the case to market in 2022. The use case (no pun intended) hasn't proven to be entirely convincing.

Don't have much concern over a rebranding, or what Apple's online services are called, whether AppleLink PE, iTools, MobileMe, or iCloud. But if such a rebranding portends other changes to the terms, especially with Services becoming a bigger revenu…

First, it's important to note that in general CUPS printer drivers have been deprecated in favor of IPP, and for Apple in particular that means AirPrint. However, CUPS is still present in Sonoma, and hasn't been removed. Yet. It is still possible …

Am I the only one who wishes Apple would move the power button back to the top edge of the phone? Like it was on past phones, and how it has remained on the iPads? I curse Apple every time I unintentionally take a screenshot after trying to put th…

AppleInsider said: After spending close to $100 million on Bing over a 20-year period, Microsoft is claimed by Google to have reached out to Apple in 2018 with a different offer. Rather than simply being just the default search in Safari, Mi…

It's funny how articles like this often suggest that Ive (or his team) was, and is, the only industrial designer that Apple has, or should have. People move on, like Ive and his former colleagues have, or retire, like this guy is doing. The Apple ae…

Arnold Schwarzenegger was detained a few weeks ago after arriving in Germany, to make sure he paid the taxes on fancy watch (he's a big Audemars Piguet fan). The German tax men don't mess around. But, oddly enough, one can hop straight onto public t…

I used another similar app, Pass4Wallet, to add unsupported cards, and though it seemed to work fine initially, at some unknown point, they all disappeared from my Wallet. Reviews show others have experienced the same issue. Not going to go through…

DJM1740 said: I have put the Lutron switches in three houses of older vintage with very few problems. The switches that didn't work were Amazon previously-used returns. Being able to add remotes allowed me to add switches where none existed …

My home lacks neutral wires in its switch boxes, which has been the main thing holding me back from getting into smart integration. The Lutron system does get mostly positive reviews, and the others I either haven't heard of, or may not put much fai…

eightzero said: Sorta not following here, since Apple Pay works fine with both Amex and Discover. What I do see is a resurgence of merchants adding credit card fees, and they are excessive. 3% credit card fees are now common, and there is n…

Anyone else notice what looks like excess glue squeezed out into the rightmost microphone portal in the second photo?

To borrow a term, SoftBank and Masayoshi Son are "beleaguered." For real. The past few years have not been good for the company, and just looking at Arm alone, there was the failed sale to Nvidia, and conflict with its Chinese venture, where the C…
