In what would have been radical change a few years ago, your Amazon Fire TV can now stream songs from the Apple Music service.
This is the latest move from the iPhone maker to allow users to access its services on hardware made by rival companies.
Well behind arch-rival AT&T, Verizon will begin rolling out its 5G wireless network in two cities early in April.
This is the carrier’s first step in having this faster replacement for LTE available in 30 cities by the end of the year.
Apple has created numerous shows for its streaming TV service, but is reportedly also negotiating deals to bring in content from other sources, including HBO and Showtime.
This should help the Apple TV service compete against established rivals, especially Netflix.
You have to be of certain age to remember a Mac version of CorelDRAW, but its developer just returned this graphics suite to Apple desktops and laptops.
Corel commits itself to “world-class vector graphics software, professional photo editing, unsurpassed output capabilities, and AI-powered drawing tools.”
Apple’s streaming TV service is going to be a very significant force in the market if a market-analysis firm is correct.
The service the iPhone maker is prepping could, in a few years, garner far more subscribers than some of its established competitors.
After Cult of Mac published an editorial recommending an iPhone SE 2, many readers chimed in with support.
The editorial argued that Apple’s success in emerging markets requires a small, inexpensive iOS handset, but quite a few of the comments gave reasons why this model should be released in the U.S. and Europe.
In Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, players must seek out creatures, objects and people that have made their way into the muggle world through the magic of augmented reality.
The developers have revealed a first look at this upcoming game that has quite a bit in common with Pokémon Go.
Apple wants to use encryptions to make “stingray” phone spying tools obsolete. The move is likely to be controversial because while these are used by criminals they are also employed by police.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s campaign for U.S. president has taken a hard line against big tech, and she has Apple in her sights. On Friday she proposed breaking up a number of large tech firms, and the iPhone-maker made the list.
Now she’s shared more details on why she thinks dividing Apple into at least two parts is necessary.
Details leaking out about the next iPad indicate that this will be an evolutionary, rather than a revolutionary, device.
So far, it looks like Apple’s 2019 mid-size, budget tablet will have quite a bit in common with the 2018 iteration.
Senator and presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren has proposed breaking up some of the biggest names in tech, including Apple. She says these companies have “bulldozed competition.”
She turned most of her ire on Amazon, Facebook and Google, though.
iPhone sales are down, especially in emerging markets. The reason is simple: Apple’s devices cost too darn much. And the solution is equally simple: Apple must make a new budget model. In short, it needs a successor to the iPhone SE to ensure short-term profits as well as long-term viability.
This device has to have a low, low price. Even if that means a phone so bare-bones that most Americans turn up their noses at it.
This week’s legal fight between Apple and Qualcomm reached a point generally only seen on TV courtroom dramas: the iPhone maker accused its rival of witness tampering.
The complaint comes after Apple’s star witness decided at the last minute not to testify.
Engineers are apparently working on an innovative design for the head-mounted display Apple is secretly developing: the company requested a patent for a motorized adjustment system.
Apple doesn’t openly talk about this project but this request, and another the company made recently, leave no room for doubt that the company is researching what will almost certainly be an augmented reality headset.
A new video produced by Apple highlights the achievements made to bring basic human rights to women and girls, but also discusses how for there is still to go.
The video is narrated any Annie Lennox, and includes Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran, Paloma Faith, Beverley Knight, and many more.

Captain Marvel can defend your iPhone with a case that just launched from OtterBox. This superhero-themed hardcase is available for a range of Apple’s devices going back years.
It’s part of this company’s Marvel Avengers line, which offers designs with favorite heroes… and a villain or two.
Anyone who wants to do serious research into hacking iPhones needs to get their hands on a “dev-fused” unit — a prototype that can be used to ferret out iOS secrets.
These are used by both malicious hackers and security researchers alike.
Although Apple makes some of the most expensive smartphones, these devices also depreciate in value far less than their rivals.
In other words, iPhones cost more to buy but much less to use.
Folding phones are getting lots of attention, but flexible screens can benefit tablets as well. A new concept video proposes a full-size iPad that can expand into a display larger than all but the biggest laptops.
Watch the video now:
Last year, Apple Watch and AirPods combined to give Apple almost a quarter of the world’s wearable shipments. The total was nearly double the next closest rival.
Shipments of these Apple products grew tremendously in 2018, outpacing the wearables market as a whole.
The first beta of Swift Playgrounds 3.0 was just introduced. This is good news for those who teach programming fundamentals through this kid-friendly tool.
The biggest improvement we know about so far is the move to teaching version 5 of the Swift programming language.
A controversial system tracking the calls and texts of all Americans has supposedly stopped being used by the National Security Agency (NSA).
This agency reportedly quit employing it months ago, and might not ask that it be reauthorized later this year.
With Apple and chip-maker Qualcomm back in court this week, the iPhone maker needs to find another source for 5G modems. There are additional possibilities — Intel, Samsung, Huawei and MediaTek — but “none of which is ideal” according to analysts with market-research firm Cowen.
Forget what you think you know about glass. Rather than being an utterly rigid material, Corning is close to producing a type of glass flexible enough to go in a future folding iPhone.
This material will be inherently superior to the plastic screens going into handsets like the Samsung Galaxy Fold.
Corporation ISO very patient person to listen to endless complaints about its digital assistant. No phonies.
Apple really did post a job opening for someone to monitor what people are saying about Siri, with an eye to turning complaints into improvements to this beleaguered voice-driven assistant.
