Apple news: iPhone, Mac, iPad, Apple Watch, iOS updates and what they mean for you.
Grok Bot for Mac can now use Messages, Mail, Notes, Calendar, Location and Contacts. My view: never give an AI your mail and messages, least of all one from SpaceX, the company that wants Tesla too.
Trump says "there is only one man" to replace Jensen Huang at Nvidia: Tim Cook. My view: a president choosing the boss of a private company is the real scandal, and this is what $25 million for a ballroom buys.
Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia's CEO after reports of two affairs, and Nvidia's board is reportedly looking at Apple's chip chief Johny Srouji. My view: a man was judged by his private life, and Apple could lose its best brain.
Bloomberg Intelligence forecasts 16 million iPhone Duos in the first year. That's about 6.5% of iPhones but around 12.6% of the iPhone money. One Duo earns Apple as much as two normal iPhones.
An Apple supplier confirmed work on Apple's AI glasses and AirPods with cameras. Cameras that wake up when people talk around you are, to me, a spy we buy ourselves.
Google's Gemini Live now works in Apple CarPlay and can read your emails. Siri already runs on Google's models. Now Google comes into your car without Apple.
A public iOS sandbox escape lets apps read other apps' files on iOS 26 and 27. Binance warned iPhone users first. Apple stays silent, and iOS 27.2.1 may not fix it.
Apple warned two Thai opposition leaders that mercenary spyware targeted their iPhones. The government, which admits agencies once asked for Pegasus money, now wants the victims' alerts. Apple says nothing.
Apple's Claris is testing Harbor, an app that runs open-weight AI models locally on Macs. Local AI is the right idea, but the brain is someone else's again, and it looks aimed at businesses.
Both OLED iPad Air sizes reportedly stay at 60Hz in 2027, while the iPad Pro is estimated at 3 to 4 million units against a 10 million target. OLED alone no longer sells a tablet.
The iPhone 20 Pro leaks promise all glass, curved edges, Face ID under the screen and Apple's own camera sensor. It will look gorgeous. A first generation of all that is a big risk.
A leak says the iPhone Duo screen cracks come from a bad hinge part, not the design. Apple chose that part, and it reportedly knows the serial numbers. So why no recall?
Apple now sells $49.99 AI usage packs on top of its $12.99 Creator Studio. No family sharing, and they expire. Siri AI will be next.
Apple Store staff allegedly pressed "Accept" on paid trials for customers to hit a 40% target. The same Apple that bans apps for tricky billing still says nothing.
