Back up your data immediately! In case the hard drive suddenly fails. Highly recommend Time Machine.

15 years ago today, Steve Jobs announced the original iPhone at the Macworld convention.

More than 2 billion iPhones have been sold and there are currently more than 1 billion active iPhones worldwide.

iPhones sold in France will no longer ship with EarPods starting next week, following changes to the law.

When the iPhone 12 series was released, Apple announced that all iPhones will not include EarPods in the box due to environmental concerns. However, France was one of the few countries that continued shipping iPhones with EarPods. This is attributed to a law that required earphones to be shipped with all mobile phones due to uncertainty over the impact of electromagnetic waves on developing brains. The law has since been changed and will apply to all mobile phones.

Apple has launched a new Apple Watch band and a new watch face as it celebrates Black History Month.

Apple Watch users can also earn an award for the Unity Challenge by closing their Move rings 7 days in a row in February.

AirPods are infuriating. A family member bought AirPods 3 for me for Christmas, but even with little rubber tips for the ends I could never get them to stay in my ears.  Returned them to try AirPods Pro and with the extra rubber hooks on them, they do stay alright but it’s so annoying that I have to get a aftermarket piece to make them usable.  

Gotta admit they’re so convenient which switching between devices though.
