Anyone expecting a classic Apple event with a livestream, stage, and awed audience was disappointed. Announcements about the new M5 chip were made via a press release without any major fanfare—presumably, the final new products of the year. The focus? Product maintenance.

New useful settings or functions appear in WhatsApp every now and then. In most cases, the developers test the new features in the pre-release versions of the popular messenger.

The programmers now want to solve precisely this problem.
Apple recently revised the design of its operating systems across the board. Whether iOS 26, iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, visionOS 26, or macOS Tahoe 26 — the similarities are apparent immediately.

Until now, the Apple community has expected the Cupertino-based company to present iOS 19, watchOS 13, macOS 16, tvOS 19, and visionOS 3, among others, this year. This is all set to change in one fell swoop when the iPhone manufacturer unveils the new operating systems at the WWDC developer conference in early June.

What looks like a big leap at first glance will make naming much easier in the future.
The WhatsApp developers want to help you with a new function and further improve the popular messenger. The aim is to make it easier to search for photos, videos, documents, and links.
Something is happening on WhatsApp. It doesn’t always have to be a brand-new feature in a preview version that you might not be able to use for a few weeks or even months. Much more important are features that you can already find in your app today. That’s exactly why the developer of Messenger published a summary of the recently introduced features. In total, there are 12 new features spread across the entire app.
WhatsApp has established itself as one of the most popular messaging apps, but at a time when data protection is paramount, new features are in high demand. Enter a new function called “Enhanced Chat Privacy.” It not only gives users more control, but also changes the way conversations are conducted. Curious? Then stay tuned!
While iOS 18 was widely available to all devices compatible with its predecessor, it looks like Apple’s upcoming iOS 19 may leave some older models behind. According to a recent leak, three iPhones from 2018 might miss out on the new update.

Rumors are growing that Apple is on the verge of one of the most significant overhauls of its operating systems in ten years. What does this mean for the iPhone, iPad and Mac? We shed light on this in this article.
Apple has made it a tradition to introduce a series of new features at its annual developer conference in June. However, these features are typically rolled out gradually over the following months, rather than launching all at once in September. So far, the company has generally managed to keep these promises, even if some features took longer to arrive.
Tim Cook was right—there really is something in the air. Following the presentation of the iPad Air with the M3 chip, it’s now the MacBook Air and Mac Studio’s turn. The rumors about Apple’s go-to laptop for most buyers have proven true. After the introduction of the M4 chip last year, it was almost inevitable that the MacBook Air would receive the upgrade sooner or later. What’s surprising, however, are the subtle refinements and the lower price.
Following the presentation of the iPhone 16e (review) a few days ago, Apple has even more surprises in store. And this time, it’s not just about new hardware—some of the technical specifications are equally unexpected.
