Apple rolls out improved Maps to all users in the US
Soli said:1) I've been using the new Maps since last year and I still haven't been able to find the Look Around option. Are these as limited as FlyOver despite all those Apple Maps cars I've seen in my area over the years?
2) I wish Apple Maps used the maps.apple.com website. If you export a location and try to open it in a browser that can call one of their apps it will send yo to maps.google.com. Maybe it's too much work and cost, but I'd think users being able to choose Apple Maps in the browser would help keep users data more private and show that Apple Maps is an excellent alternative. There could even be Android users that don't want to switch to an iPhone because they're under the impression that Apple Maps isn't good. -

HomePod lands in India 23 months after launch
razorpit said:sidrictheviking said:So, it’s now available in 12 countries, right? US, Canada, Australia, UK, France, Germany, Medico, Spain, China (including Hong Kong), Japan, Taiwan and India. This was released almost 2 years ago, in February 2018. I’d love to understand the reason for this. Has any other piece of Apple hardware had such an extremely slow rollout? Even the original iPhone was faster than this and it was quite slow, too!
Don’t mind me. I just wish this, and all Apple products, launched early in Ireland...or launched here at all! (Still waiting for Visual Voicemail - announced in January 2007)

It’s beyond embarrassing! But we don’t have an Apple Store either...or Apple Watch with cellular...or Apple Cash...or Apple Card...or iPhone trade-in...or...Siri with Apple TV...or Siri Restaurants...or Maps speed limits or Nearby...or Apple News, TV Programmes or Sports...or..need I go on?

Unlikely rumor claims 'iPhone SE 2' will be called 'iPhone 9'
iPhone 9 makes much more sense than iPhone SE2 or similar. After all, if it’s an upgrade of the existing iPhone 8, with the rumoured specs, it deserves a new name. It doesn’t sound like another iPhone 5 refresh. But, I’m happy to be completely wrong.The SE lovers have been pretty vocal about this NOT being what they wanted as an upgrade of their beloved device. Calling it iPhone 9 rather than SE might deflect some of their disappointment/anger.
