Much like Google offers personalized searching, macOS Sierra delivers location-based tips as part of its suggestions within Spotlight, Siri, Safari and Maps. That means Apple will try to recommend relevant services within your immediate vicinity.

If you haven’t already installed Apple’s latest iOS 10.1 update, do it now. Thanks to a vulnerability in earlier release of its software, it’s possible for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to be hacked using only a malicious JPEG image or PDF file.

During tomorrow’s Apple earnings call, Tim Cook is likely to unload some bad news. Wall Street expects Apple to report its first annual revenue decline since 2001, snapping one of the most impressive streaks ever witnessed.
Slumping iPhone sales mean Apple’s annual revenue could drop to $215.67 billion for 2016. That would be a significant decline from the $233.72 billion in revenue Apple posted in 2015 — but there may be light at the end of the tunnel.
Beats co-founder and Apple employee Andre Young, aka Dr. Dre, allegedly hired a hitman to kill Suge Knight, according to a lawsuit filed by Knight.

iPhone 7 Plus owners can finally start using Apple’s highly-touted Portrait Mode starting today.

Deadlines can be rough, but they also push us to do what needs doing. Today’s deadline is one you might want to honor, it’s the last day you can pay whatever you want for a massive bundle of productivity-boosting Mac apps. The process is simple: just name your price, and if it’s less than the average you’ll take home something great from the bundle. If you beat the average price you get the whole bundle of 13 apps, and if you beat the leader’s price you’ll be entered into an additional giveaway.
