  • Sleep apnea in, hypertension out for Apple Watch Series 10

    Another health element users will miss out on is blood oxygen sensing.
    Well that’s disappointing. I’ve been waiting for this feature to return so I can finally upgrade my tired (and now deprecated) S5…

  • Beats Studio Buds+ are Apple's worst-kept secret and arrive on May 17

    I still don't get why Apple bought Beats, why!?
    Mostly because it allowed them to release Apple Music.

    Twenty bucks for 4K while other streaming services include it in their basic plan. What a ripoff.

    $20.00 for 4k and 4 streams that they don't want to share... it's a joke.

    Did you not understand the consequences of sharing passwords with others that aren't authorized or sending copies of software not licensed to others? 

    This sort of thing often punishes legal users while doing little to prevent illegal behavior. Back when I used Microsoft Office, its activation system frequently told me my code had been used too many times despite the fact that I’d had to re-image my hard drive and reinstall. It was a nightmare having to call in and wait for an actual human to reset my license, while pirates are easily able to download cracked versions of the software.

    My daughter is off at college now and my son leaves after this summer. Are they no longer going to be able to use out Netflix account even though they’re still eligible for all the other family benefits that are out there (while, again, pirates can easily download Netflix content to circumvent what should otherwise be allowed)?

  • Apple launches Apple Music Classical app

    Been looking forward to this for awhile. I have a Classical Archives subscription, but their app is absolutely awful. Their website isn’t much better.

    I feel a little sorry for them because this will definitely affect their subscriber count, but they should’ve been keeping up their application which looks no different today than it did when it first hit the App Store over a decade ago.

  • The best apps for Apple CarPlay

    JP234 said:
    Good or bad, a Sirius XM app is redundant. Any car with Apple CarPlay also has Sirius built into the car's radio (The antenna is in the shark fin on your roof). And it works just like the AM/FM channels.

    The only reason to use any of the other apps is to use Siri and keep your eyes on the road, instead of fiddling with a dash screen in traffic. You DO use Siri, right?
    Not true. My wife’s previous company car (2019 RAV4) had CarPlay but not a XM tuner. The only way to tune in to XM was through her phone.
