  • Sonos Era 100 & Era 300 HomePod competitors coming in March

    Just one HomePod Mini is all you need to get it going.

  • 'Car Keys Tests' app surfaces on App Store

    CarKey is an awesome feature that I’d hoped would’ve seen a wider adoption by now. I really wanted this after my wife got it with her BMW X5. This along with HomeKey and now I don’t have to carry physical keys and the added pocket bulk with me anymore. 

    That said, I was pretty much forced into getting a BMW for this feature.  Not that that’s a bad thing as I love BMW cars and have owned in the past but having options would be much better.

  • Apple gearing up to re-release revamped HomeKit architecture

    JP234 said:
    Unless you're a developer, here's the best advice you'll hear on installing beta software: don't. And if you still feel the need to, do a current backup first, and take your device offline.

    As a consumer/enduser, you have nothing to lose by waiting for the official release. I spent 14 years working for an Apple Specialist and then Apple Inc. and never, ever installed a beta on any of my devices after seeing people coming in crying about what happened when they did.

    I’m in complete agreement with you on this. I never install any beta., ever. I feel most people on the Apple betas are just in it for the new features early and not to report bugs.  In all fairness though, the new HomeKit architecture released with 16.2 was a public release.

  • Apple releases AirPods Pro 2 firmware update

    Can they please fix the unreliable “Left Behind” alerts… Everyday without fail I get a notification that they were left behind when they’re not. I get this sometimes while they’re in my ears and actively connected to the iPhone. Extremely annoying.

  • Apple iPad smart home hub dock rumored to be coming soon

    Of course this is coming now.  With Matter on the way and other smart home docks that will gain compatibility (Echo Show, Google Home Hub), Apple is gonna have to step it up to compete.
