More than a dozen apps in the photo category of Appleās App Store appropriate the shoddy, snapshot esthetics of single-use, or disposable, cameras.
The newest joining this niche category two weeks ago features nothing unique. Yet it quickly surpassed 1 million downloads because the popular internet celebrity behind the app told followers to ācheck out my new app.ā

Apple hit the gorgeous deserts of Saudi Arabia for its newest commercial which is hands down the dirtiest āShot on iPhoneā ad weāve ever seen.
The minute-long ad follows a group of Saudi ATV riders as they push themselves, their vehicles and the iPhone 11 Pro camera to the absolute limit. Itās pretty much the exact opposite of the wintery Shot on iPhone ad Apple put out last week and will have you ready to hit some warmer weather.
Appleās back with another great holiday ad. Photo: Apple
Appleās annual holiday season ad arrived on YouTube today, just in time for it to be included in all the football games and parade footage on Thanksgiving day.
The three-minute long ad called āThe Surpriseā follows two young girls who travel to their grandfathers house for Christmas. Of course, there are Apple products spread throughout ad and itās the iPad that will warm your heart the most.

iPhone and iPad owners received a critical software update this morning aimed at fixing one of the most annoying bugs in iOS 13.2.
iOS 13.2.2 and iPadOS 13.2.2 come just over a week after Apple released iOS 13.2, which contains a nasty memory bug that causes apps to quit unexpectedly in the background. The recent iOS 13.3 beta added a fix for the memory bug, but now everyone can enjoy the bug fix without having to install beta software.

Apple just posted a new video advertisement on Youtube, as the company does from time to time.
The ad is about privacy on iPhone which has been one of the companyās biggest talking points over the last few years. Honestly, I donāt think a single word from the ad actually entered my ears. I was too blown away with the creepy beautiful FPV drone shots that transport you from being a distant observer to an intimate guest in someoneās life.
It's getting easier to not be tracked in Maps. And YouTube is getting a timed history auto-delete. Photo: Google
Google just promised that Incognito mode will soon be added to Maps. And YouTube is getting timed auto-delete for the userās video history. In addition, a new Password Checkup tool helps users avoid common passcodes.
This advertising company has been making similar changes to its other services in hopes of shaking a reputation for privacy invasion.
YouTube is about to get swarmed with new iPhone 11 stress test videos starting on September 20 but Apple just beat everyone to the punch with its latest ad that shows this yearās iPhone is the toughest yet.
Apple dropped two new iPhone 11 Pro ads this morning showing off the durability of the new phones and the triple-camera system. Both ads take place in a grungy sci-fi testing chamber where everything from broccoli to a wedding cake is thrown at the iPhone. Each ad is a minute long and if you donāt fall in love with the fluffy dog in the camera video then you have no heart.

Is that titanium? "Nice!" Photo: Universal Studios/YouTube
The Apple Card is the newest status totem and that gave one YouTuber and fan of the 2000 film American Psycho an idea for the re-editing of one scene.
The scene shows cocksure investment banker Patrick Bateman and his yuppie, Italian-suited colleagues vainly comparing the designs of their business cards, each whipping theirās out so to speak.

The CEO of YouTube has joined a growing list of big name tech industry figures who restrict their kidsā access to mobile devices.
Susan Wojcicki says that, āI have times when I take away all my kidsā phones, especially if weāre on a family vacation, because I want people to interact with each other.ā Steve Jobs and Bill Gates have previously expressed similar sentiments.

Many of our favorite applications are free because advertisers pay for them. But what if that changed? How much would you pay for Facebook or YouTube without advertising⦠and without these apps profiling everything about you?
A survey conducted by a market-research firm found that subscription fees people would pay for these apps would make them more profitable than they are now.

Tomorrow is the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing that put Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on that big chunk of cheese in the sky. To celebrate, Apple has put out a new video that talks about the Apollo missionās impact on the world while also offering some glimpses of its upcoming TV show about the space race.
For All Mankindās first trailer came out during the WWDC 2019 keynote and instantly shot up onto our must-watch list. This new video makes the hype even bigger.
Apple tossed some shade at its own product in a new ad that promotes Face ID.
The hilarious new ad shows how much easier it is to use Face ID over Touch ID as a vegged-out guy relaxes in his reclining chair and is too lazy to touch his iPhone XR to see whoās texting him.
Of course Casey Neistat would try this. Photo: Casey Neistat
YouTuber Casey Neistat found a way to bring back the color gold color option to the new Apple Watch Series 4: dunk it in 24 carat gold.
Apple hasnāt made a gold watch since the Apple Watch Edition was cancelled, so Neistat enlisted JerryRigEverythingās creator to come up with a solution. The entire process is a little bit more complex than just dipping a watch in gold, but itās also so simple you could do it in your living room if you wanted.
