The upcoming iOS 26.1 update includes a small but helpful change for iPhones, and it could prevent you from running late to something important.
Specifically, when an alarm goes off in the Clock app, there is a new "slide to stop" control on the screen for turning off the alarm. On previous iOS 26 versions, there is simply a large "stop" button, which could be accidentally tapped.
The new ...

Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models at the same time, which is why we often get rumored features months ahead of launch. The iPhone 18 series is no different, and we already have a good idea of what to expect for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
One thing worth...

Apple launched the Apple TV HD, the Siri Remote, tvOS, and their accompanying App Store a decade ago today, marking a major overhaul of the device.
The new vision for the Apple TV was unveiled on September 9, 2015 during Apple's "Hey Siri" event in San Francisco, where CEO Tim Cook introduced the device with the statement, "The future of TV is apps." The announcement represented a major...
Ripoff with junk keyboard. No Apple portable is safe to buy.
iMac is great. Only Last decent Mac that Jonny Ive has not destroyed in the Mac line up with his vanity projects.
Keyboard has been fine for me. (Knock on wood.) Have not had problems with heat or throttling. Overall I'm satisfied with it as a computer, I have as much confidence in it as I've had in any other Mac I've owned.
What disappoints me though is that my 2018 MBP is only 9 months old and already starting to show similar levels of wear on it's finish as the 2013 it replaced. Something is different about the aluminum on these, because it isn't treated any different than the 2013 was.
How incredibly naive. These are desktops, not laptops. If you have multi-TB's of SSD in your desktop, you're not very bright.
Or you need multiple TB of reliable flash storage... Most people don't, though most people spending $1,600 on a computer would expect it to not be handicapped because of the choices made by the manufacturer. macOS has evolved to providing a sub-standard experience when booting from a traditional Hard Drive and an SSD option needs to be standard.
Not everyone needs the bleeding edge PCIe SSDs Apple offers. You can get name brand 1TB PCIe SSDs for $100 now. Everyday users will not appreciate the difference between one of those and the high-end selection Apple chooses to offer for $500 currently, but it will destroy a Fusion Drive still.
This is the single most critical component that impacts overall performance of a computer for 98% of users. Apple still treating it like something exotic should be embarrassing.
I just wish they'd come with proper GPUs... like dead set, all you can get is dodgy integrated graphics!!!
Recently I've been searching for a new Mac that can play: - Shenmue 1 & 2 (requires a GeForce GTX 650 Ti which is a ~2012 mid-range GPU). - Shenmue 3 (not yet released) - Dreamfall Chapters (may struggle with a GTX 650 Ti... high requirements because it's an ambitious indie game) - A few emulated Saturn and Dreamcast games using Mednafen and Redream
If the Mac Mini and iMac came with a modern, mid-range GPU (like a $300 GPU... not unreasonable IMO!!) then I could confidently murder any of the above games (only 3 circumstances because I'm not really a gamer... I just wanna play some casual games).
Instead, my options are to: - Buy a Mac Pro for $$$$$$$$ (way more than what I'm willing to spend on a casual machine) - Buy a hackintosh and put up with having to hack it (and pray it will still work) after every update - Buy an eGPU for $$$$$$$$ that could buy me a high-end GPU instead (i.e. pay way too much for mediocre gear) - Buy a PC and a Mac (although I don't want a PC) so that I can use the PC for casual gaming and just accept that Macs can't even do casual gaming
IMO the current Mac lineup is a sick joke. Add to it the fact your HD and RAM can't be updated and cough cough... I'm finding it really difficult to justify upgrading my ~2012 Mini and ~2010 MBP because: - My current models have upgradable RAM and HDs - My current models are fast enough - There's no guarantee that new models are gonna get a few not particularly demanding games over the line... it's really annoying that we're forced to either accept mediocre graphics, fork out $$$$ for so-so graphics or decide that Apple's not for us... I've been a fan since the 80's and this is the first time Apple's current-gen graphics setup has been inadequate for casual gaming
For playing games you don’t need a Mac. Get a cheap PC or build one to your dream specs JUST for the games and be done with it. Mac is not for games still holds true. There is nothing wrong on having a games PC and a Mac for the rest.
