I'm really looking forward to this feature rolling out, which will finally alleviate the mess of trying to recover accounts with forgotten passwords. I have elderly parents who constantly forget, lose, or something inexplicable happens with their p…

I'm excited that Apple Maps will get another great update, especially the bus routes and navigation. Although I think Apple Maps is easier to use and better designed, I primarily use Google Maps for its wealth of data. I live in Taiwan, and use map…

The render does indeed look slick, but I have a feeling this shape would snag on things: shirt sleeves, backpack straps, long hair, etc. I think that's why the Apple Watch has always been quite round, to account for this.

Same here. If decreasing the size of the notch requires moving all the components closer to the bezel, I’d assume that means those components will be more likely to be damaged when the phone is dropped and lands on its head. Personally, that’s not…

On a side note: It's interesting to see proof that Steve's on-stage outfit is also what he'd wear in real life. Along these lines, I'd guess that the reason his keynotes were so casual and watchable by regular people is that he was just being his …

Is there any reason Apple wouldn't choose to introduce an ARM Mac while keeping Intel Macs still in production? Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds? Cheaper, faster, more power-efficient Macs for the average user, and dual-boot capable Mac…

I could see this feature being useful for seeing other "Spaces" (virtual desktops) in full size, rather than the small thumbnails that we are presented with in the current MacOS implementation. But I doubt that Apple would invest this much tech and …

I dislike the subscription model for certain apps. I use a very useful sleep tracking app which allows me, among other things, to track how different things such as using an eye mask or showering before bed affect how well I sleep. I purchased…

Good thing Apple has a giant war chest to fund these types of legal battles, and see them to the end. The "beleaguered" Apple of old would probably have to settle for practicality's sake.

I found this useful. I just used this to look at my cluttered "Downloads" folder, and delete group of files that I no longer need. Thanks for the tip!

I currently live in Taipei. Hoping this means we get some gd AirPods up in here.

Another part of the Apple money tree that financial analysts never talk about...

I wonder if Taiwan's Apple Pay rollout priority is affected by the fact that Taiwanese companies like Foxconn are manufacturing much of Apple's products.

Good to see Apple's partnership with IBM bearing more fruit. Enterprise is a large market that Apple has not done well in historically, and IBM appears to have been a great choice to help bridge that gap.

"Also, the merchant doesn't pay extra for ApplePay. The credit card company shares part of their fee with Apple. Why do they do that? Primarily because the security of ApplePay reduces fraud and therefore saves the credit card companies money." …

This is reminiscent of how Apple first introduced Touch ID with a single function, to securely unlock the iPhone. Then they continued to leverage the tech with the far-reaching Apple Pay functionality, and others. Following this tactic, the dual …

Off the record, Gou also said to China, "It's just a one time thing. The US means nothing to me, baby."

I have a feeling some of this is political. Taiwan, being such a small country (or territory), relies heavily on both Apple's business and the US's protection from China, and needs to do whatever it can to appease PE Trump in order to keep the US…
