Apple is reportedly working on a curved iPhone that would allow users to control it by hovering their hands over the screen.
Unlike the edges seen on Samsung’s curved handsets, or the subtle curves seen on the iPhone X, Apple’s new design supposedly curves “inward gradually from top to bottom.” To help us imagine what that might look like, ever-dependable designer Martin Hajek has created a few mockups.

A future MacBook might have a hybrid keyboard that can sense when the. keys are lightly touched as well as when they’re pressed. This would allow the entire keyboard to function as a trackpad.

Surprisingly, the Apple Watch Series 3 has been out for six months already. While time has flown by (pun intended), the Series 3 watch has easily become one of my favourite Apple releases of the past year.

Spotify and Apple are in a battle over rival streaming music services, and sometimes such conflicts can turn a bit petty.
After it was reported that The Weeknd’s latest album and lead single performed better on Apple Music than it did on Spotify, Spotify hit back by reporting that the numbers it initially gave were, in fact, wrong. It apparently beat Apple after all.
And that’s where things get confusing.

Medical advances don’t have to be dramatic. Even small changes can save lives. Take an app that uses an iPhone camera to determine if an artery is healthy enough to accept the catheter needed to restore blood flow to a patent’s heart. It’s still experimental, but is significantly better than the current method.
Facebook now lists in one place all the companies that you’ve given access to your profile info. This makes deleting this access a snap, right from your iPhone or iPad.
