  • Apple provides detailed reasoning behind abandoning iPhone CSAM detection

    Great that Apple heard the outcry of the slippery slope to snooping — they don’t often eat humble pie!

  • Oceanic+ Dive Housing turns iPhone into an underwater camera & dive computer

    Why does the case pump the air out? Doesn’t this increase the pressure differential (leak potential) during a dive?

  • Undercharged: iPhone 14 owners complain about lower battery endurance

    14 Pro already down to 89%. Bought right at launch a year ago. Never saw this drastic decline with any of my previous phones (I get a new one every year). 

    I am also at 89%. I have to say Apple must have changed their battery supplier. My MBP 14 M1 is also 89% battery health with 261 cycles.
    I am very disappointed by obvious decline in battery quality for the last couple of years.
    Er, hang on. 89% for 261 of 500 cycles sounds spot on schedule. Just done the maths: 89.65% is on target to hit 80% after 500 cycles.
    It's supposed to be 1000 cycles for Macbooks.
    Good point. Missed that.

    I've also travelled extensively and never has anyone borrowed my phone for a quick look, nor would I allow them, government official or not, without sufficient justification.

    Further to this, to get any information out of your iPhone without you unlocking it, the phone would need to be plugged into a device like the one in the photo at the top of the screen, and the process takes quite a long time. Your iPhone can't be secretly hacked without it being obvious unless you unlock it.

    Perhaps you're being a little too suspicious, or gullible to allow people to borrow your iPhone?
    May I ask where are you from? If from the US, than that’s understandable you have never experienced that even though it applies to US citizens too. But the probability would be much lower I’d say.
    Because it’s the US immigation, who as the authority to ask to hand over any device unlocked to go through the apps, texts, chats…

    So it it not ‘sufficient justification’. If we want to visit the US and we are asked, we have to do so. Or we may be banned from visiting the US forever…

    Not sure about any other country that has such rules.
    Yup. One reason I’ve never visited the US. For a democracy, it’s not cool.
