Apple is continuing its marketing onslaught for the F1 movie, which arrives in US cinemas on June 27. Apple has released a new trailer in the TV app for the film, but this one has a twist. Apple calls it a “haptic trailer”. What they means is as you watch, your phone vibrates in sync with the video.

For F1, that means you can feel the roar of the car’s engine in your hands as Brad Pitt races it around the track. Here’s how it works …

Apple has begun rolling out its updated design resources following the WWDC25 keynote. This means that designers and app developers now have access to the company’s official templates and UI assets that reflect the new cross-platform Liquid Glass visual overhaul. Here’s where to get them.

Yesterday at WWDC25, Apple announced a new addition to the Wallet app that’ll certainly bridge the gap when it comes to digital ID adoption in the United States: support for passports.

The Apple Watch is a stellar wearable, and one that’s enticing enough to prevent many from switching to Android. But with its upcoming foldable, Vivo claims to, somehow, support the Apple Watch.

Long considered the standard for local device backups and data transfer between Apple’s mobile device ecosystem and a Mac or Windows PC, iMazing continues to provide innovative solutions for managing Apple mobile devices individually or at scale.

Last Monday, towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, Craig Federighi said that Apple had “expanded” its vision for Swift Assist, and it would now allow developers to bring their Large Language Model of choice directly to Xcode.

Now, we know more about how this is going to work.

Apple held its WWDC25 keynote yesterday, where it announced a new suite of software updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS – all under the new version numbering umbrella of ’26’. A new suite of OS releases comes with a new version of Xcode, which also falls under the new 26 naming umbrella.

In the first beta of Xcode 26, the developer tool used to build apps for these new operating systems, Apple now includes a new ‘Vision Pro 4K’ simulator.

If you’ve been singing into the TV remote while using Apple Music Sing on your Apple TV, it’s time for an upgrade. As announced yesterday, you will soon get to use your iPhone as a wireless mic, with your voice coming straight through the Apple TV’s speakers. Here’s what it looks like.

Using boarding passes on your iPhone has become common practice. But after years with no changes to the feature, iOS 26 is about to upgrade your Apple Wallet boarding passes in several key ways.

Apple Watch has nearly 60 faces, and watchOS 26 optimizes way more than before for . It’s not all good news with watchOS 26, however, as Apple continues to discontinue watch faces through software updates.

Following yesterday’s WWDC25 keynote announcements, Apple confirmed that it will continue to lean into the daily puzzle trend with the launch of Emoji Game: a lighthearted challenge that tasks players with completing three phrases using emoji. Here’s how it’ll work.

It took long enough, but Meta has finally admitted what Threads users have been saying from day one: the platform needs its own direct messaging system. Not something tied to Instagram, not a redirect, just DMs, right where the conversations are happening.

And now, that’s exactly what they’re finally getting.

The first iOS 26 beta arrived yesterday, and already it’s been found to hold confirmation of a new product in the works: a reference to ‘AirPods Pro 3’ was discovered in Apple’s code, the second such recent leak.

The best part of Apple’s keynote yesterday, for me, was the introduction of iPadOS 26. Apple finally opened up the floodgates and gave iPad users everything they wanted. We have an actual multitasking window manager, new menu toolbars, better background tasks, and a revamped files app. All this has transformed how people will view iPads moving forward. But the fantastic thing is that this is not just reserved for the $1300+ iPad Pro; this now works on the $299 entry-level iPad. Apple just made the entry-level iPad the best value in computers. Let me explain.

Scope it all out down below. 

Apple had several exciting car-related announcements to make at WWDC yesterday. In addition to showing off some great new CarPlay features, the company announced that car keys will soon be supported by 13 new vehicle brands inside the Apple Wallet app. Here’s what’s coming.

A new satellite-based service spotted in the iOS 26 developer beta will be useful in both extreme situations and more everyday scenarios in areas with poor mobile coverage …

Apple just announced a notable update to Image Playground, its AI-powered image generation tool introduced last year as part of the Apple Intelligence rollout. Now, ChatGPT will appear as a filter option. Here’s what that means.

With such a significant update to the look and feel of Apple devices, it’s not surprising that design and UI professionals have things to say about the new Liquid Glass design language.

As you might expect, views are mixed, but it’s notable how willing people are to give Apple time to refine the look based on reactions to the early betas …

iPhone battery settings get a nice update in iOS 26, including a new intelligent battery saver mode called Adaptive Power. The iPhone will also now track extra battery stats, like your average power consumption throughout the day.

But perhaps the most notable enhancement is that the iPhone can now tell you exactly how long it will take for your battery to charge. Right at the top of your lock screen, when plugged in to power, your phone will now show the estimated time to charge until it hits 80%.

While Apple quickly dismissed major Siri improvements as coming next year, the company still announced a lot at WWDC 2025. From a whole new look across all Apple devices to full-on windowing on iPads, it was a fast-paced event with a lot to cover.

Here’s a roundup of all the major announcements – please take our poll on your favorites of these, and share your reactions in the comments …

So, Apple just held its annual WWDC conference where it announces all the new software for the next year. And the company proudly announced the next version of iOS for the iPhone, iOS 26. If you have an iPhone model newer than the XS, you will be able to update to iOS 26 for free later this year.

But the current version number of iOS is iOS 18. So what happened to iOS 19? Why did Apple jump to 26?

Apple said yesterday that iOS 26 was its biggest update to the look and feel of the iPhone since iOS 7, with the same visual design language used across all the company’s devices.

It’s certainly a pretty dramatic change, depending on how far you want to take the look. For example, in addition to the ‘tint’ options we got in iOS 18, there’s a new ‘Clear’ option to make all our app icons monochrome glass – which you can see above …

I’m fortunate enough to be in Cupertino this week for WWDC. For me, things kicked off on Sunday, when I had the honor of visiting Apple Park to watch a selection of this year’s Swift Student Challenge Distinguished Winners present their apps to Apple executives.
