With Apple’s famous walled garden continuing to crumble, the company has made yet another concession to app developers. But it turns out that not everyone will benefit.

(In practice, you could jailbreak an iPhone or iPad and download apps from other places... Читать дальше...

Apple Vision Pro is clearly a first-gen product. Expensive, flawed, limited, and impressive. Much of what it needs to really become a mass-market device will need new hardware that is lighter, more affordable, and more fully featured.

Do Not Disturb mode was added to iOS way back in 2012, and has been a popular feature ever since. When activated on an iPhone (or iPad, for that matter), it silences all incoming notifications, calls and texts so you don’t get woken up or distracted when you need to be left alone.
