Apple hoped to redesign the Safari web browser in iOS 15 by moving the Address bar to the bottom of the screen. But there was so much pushback from beta testers that the latest prerelease version includes the option to move the Address Bar back to the top. iPhone users can still keep it at the bottom, though.

And there’s also a much-requested design change for those who decide to keep the Address Bar at the bottom.

The anticipated SharePlay feature in FaceTime syncs up TV shows, movies, music and more across devices so people can experience them together. But the features in upcoming beta releases and the major official OS 15 updates this fall won’t include it, Apple told developers today.

Apple on Tuesday confirmed it has chosen 15 Black- and Brown-owned businesses for a first-of-its kind Impact Accelerator to support equity and opportunity in the environmental sector.

The move is part of Cupertino’s Racial Equity and Justice Initiative, aimed at combatting systematic barriers to opportunity, while also advancing innovative solutions for communities most impacted by climate change.

It’s hard to believe that it’s only been six years since the Apple Watch first hit wrists around the world. It didn’t take long before it became the best-selling wearable device. In the second quarter of 2015, Apple sold 4.2 million of them. And as of the end of last year, more than 100 million people were happy Apple Watch owners.

If you still haven’t added this must-have accessory to your collection, here are a number of refurbished Apple Watch deals, all with the features we have come to know and love. One of them is sure to fit your needs.

Since Apple Watch gets a hardware update like clockwork every fall, it’s a safe bet we’ll see a Series 7 model next month alongside the iPhone 13. There are plenty of rumors about what to expect, including a better display and a new flat-edged design, both of which sound great to me.

But I’m less keen on the prospect that Apple Watch Series 7 might come with additional health sensors. Here’s why.

FlickType, maker of the accessible iPhone keyboard that has become popular among those with vision impairment, has confirmed it is discontinuing its app after years of obstacles and “abuse” from Apple’s App Store approval team.

The announcement comes after FlickType last week submitted an update to fix bugs related to iOS 15 and got “incorrectly” rejected by Apple. The team says Apple has ignored repeated requests for clarification and support.

Security research firm Corellium on Monday revealed its new Open Security Initiative, which will support independent research into the privacy and security of mobile apps and devices. Its first target is Apple’s controversial CSAM scanning feature, set to roll out to iPhone users later this year.

Corellium said it applauds Apple’s commitment to holding itself accountable, and it believes its platform of virtual iOS devices is best for supporting any testing efforts. It hopes that researchers will use it to uncover “errors in any component” of Apple’s feature, which could be used to “subvert the system as a whole, and consequently violate iPhone users’ privacy and security.”

When the social media app Yik Yak debuted in late 2013, it was a hit at colleges. Users remained anonymous and only posts in their immediate area showed up for them. But then the app lost what made it unique and the company disbanded. Now the app is back with new ownership and something like the original formula.

Forget that old adage about curiosity killing the cat. Besides, that cat has nine lives, and you only have one, so it really is in your own best interest to be inquisitive about the world around you, to question, and to seek answers in order to expand your knowledge base, so that you are motivated to keep on learning. In fact, research shows that curiosity is one of eight core abilities that drive successful kids. But what a shame it would be to let that curiosity fade when we become adults, for even as we get older curiosity is a good thing.

People spent a lot of time online in 2020 — but if one content format came out the true winner, it was definitely video. In fact, 60% of businesses use video as a marketing tool and 94% of marketers who used video once definitely plan to leverage it again.

And all that’s really hard to learn without individualized instruction and a lot of chances to practice.
