Samsung Galaxy Ultra Watch copies everything except Apple's durability and customer servic...
My experience with AirPods Pro are less good. I can’t use noise cancellation or transparency as the left one clicks as I walk. I also have a mic fault on the right one that makes a loud noise for the other person when on a call (so I’ve had to set the left one as the mic). Apple’s answer? Buy new ones.bloggerblog said:
A friend of mine bought a MBP and few months later he spilled tea on his keyboard. He took it to an Apple Store and they fixed it for him for free.jetpilot said:Apple doesn’t cover accidental damage either under their basic warranty no matter how new the product is. For accidental damage to be covered you have to purchase Apple Care+.

How to create reminders in Calendar in iOS 18
I tried converting my (shareable) Notes tick-box shopping list to the new (last year) Reminders format. Its handy categorisation groupings, just seems to make it harder to find something. Does anyone use this and like it? Should I persevere?

How to use Call Recording and transcription in iOS 18.1
You mean this isn’t just a US feature?AppleInsider said:Points of note
Do bear in mind the laws of your country with regards to recording calls. It could be worth a few minutes of your time checking them before starting to use the function.

Global chaos erupts as Windows security update goes bad
Whilst I’m enjoying your combative attitude, does a supplier doing it that (Windows) way, really prove your point? -

The point is that an application can do what’s needed, without being in a privileged position to screw the kernel. Apple provides similar security tools to monitor processes and the network too: https://objective-see.org/products/utilities.htmldee_dee said:
You proved my point. Antivirus software doesn’t just monitor “files that change” - any file on the computer, including OS files need to be monitored. You think viruses just play around in “My Docunents” folder ??appleinsideruser said:
Not in some OSes you don't: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/endpointsecurity/monitoring_system_events_with_endpoint_securitydee_dee said:
You might not understand how antivirus work, but kernel access is needed for them to function.CheeseFreeze said:
Nonsense. Good standards don’t let third parties to operate “on an OS level” since that access is not needed to begin with. In case of Apple and Microsoft they provide APIs and frameworks that other vendors can use. They stay within these boundaries (or there wouldn’t be a standard).AppleZulu said:So this is where we see letting third-party vendors have that level of access to the OS in order to provide security becomes a vulnerability in itself.Also, you could argue the very opposite. Letting a few tech giants in control over protocols used world-wide means that when things go bad, everything goes bad.

Think about it - if a virus can shut down that API then your antivirus software would be rendered useless.
