I’m so torn on this issue. On one hand, the walled garden works perfectly for me, I’m happy to support businesses by purchasing apps and for apple to take a commission. On the other hand, I do see that I own a device that I paid money for, and I sh…

It is important that there is some boundary around how companies behave to restrict other services. For example, I agree that the inability to use a third party smartwatch and for it to be able to handle basic functions like messaging and calling sh…

Ah yes, all your data goes to their servers for them to farm out all your personal information. And what has happened to all the legal protections you Americans have all enjoyed from the FTC… oh yes, they’ve been gutted by your current leader… goodb…

A timely article… for the next 4 years we all need to tighten our privacy belts. I predict Mr Strong Arm will allow Mr DOGE any and all information in existence. I hope that Apple is able to stand strong. I’m worried, and I don’t even live in the …

So far, Apple Intelligence is delivering well rounded features without passing anything to the cloud (without explicit consent). That is game changing, and I predict that other companies will be scrabbling to catch up with ‘on device’ AI for a limit…

Not rechargeable = outdated for the modern age. Time to move past this disposable model - there is no reason a device like this shouldn’t function for 10+ years with a replaceable battery. There really isn’t an excuse for this any more - I’d rathe…

No doubt that those who are always by a desk or in a car will want to use this feature. I certainly would too. Particularly thinking about the increase in docks and the use of the phone as an office camera, many more phones will be holding a +80% ch…

Easier to call climate protestors lunatics than consider the lunacy with which we continue to endanger our own lives by ignoring the devastating impact on our home caused by decades of a failure to act, in my view, of course. 😉 But Apple, producin…

This isn’t an easy issue. Whilst my view is that apple is largely a responsible company with a good moral compass, there are some people who feel they are not. They do wield extraordinary power, bu the nature of the number of their devices The iron…

I’m interested in people’s thoughts as I’d love a single, powerful, compact multiport charger that I can take anywhere. My concern is that Li-ion batteries prefer a slow charge, in order to keep the temperature down and extend battery life. It seems…

I think this has become very polarised. Do we ‘do what we are told’ or ‘do what the F we like’? Well, bad stuff happens in both scenarios, and sometimes some agreement and compliance is a good thing. Hence agreed laws not to kill each other, countri…

Hey, appleinsider guys, do you know that your specs tables display really badly on an iPhone? I really struggle to make sense of them as the headings are mixed up with the numbers. It’s been like this for years!

€50m is Much cheaper than the cost of setting a precedent of allow third party payments. They have complied with the letter of the law… It’ll be interesting to see if they ever hand over the money.

I agree that sideloading is dangerous, not because of the inherent risk of having non-verified code, which is manageable on the same way as on iOS. The risk here, is others have said, is that companies like Facebook can delete their App Store versio…

A well written article, thanks for taking the time to write this. Let’s hope that those disparaging of this subject don’t have children who play with Lego. I dread to think what they’ll do if their kids make a character that isn’t heteronormative… …
