It was five years ago when Apple first released its tiny AirTag tracker, and even though there’s a new model, it hasn’t changed much. So the original model is still great, especially when you can get a 4-pack for just $57. That’s an incredible $42 off the original MSRP, and just $14.25 per tracker, the best price we’ve ever seen. And since the sale is at Woot, your Amazon Prime perks will be useful here too, including free shipping.
As you know, AirTags are super useful to have, especially hooked up with your keys or bag, so you don’t have to spend forever searching for them in the morning. Just pop open the Find My app and make it ping. When the tag isn’t nearby, you’ll still be able to track it down with Apple’s global Find My network that uses other iPhones to pinpoint its location. With millions of connected Apple devices, you’re certainly going to find its location in seconds.
The AirTags are durable and water-resistant, so they’re good to use in all sorts of conditions. The batteries will last for over a year, and they’re easy to swap out, too, so you can use them for a very long time.
But act fast, because this Woot deal won’t last forever. Even if they don’t sell out, the timer runs out Friday at midnight, so you’d better hurry up and grab a pack because we might never see a discount this good again.
Some iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air Users Experiencing a Charging Issue Earlier this week, 9to5Mac's Benjamin Mayo reported on an apparent charging issue affecting at least some of Apple's latest iPhone models.
In short, Mayo said that when he attempted to charge his iPhone Air with a USB-C cable just seconds after the device ran out of battery, it failed to turn on and did not display the usual red battery icon that indicates charging is occurring.
Mayo subsequently realized that several users have posted about this issue across websites such as Reddit and iFixit Answers, but it is unclear what the root cause is or how widespread it is. Apple has yet to publicly comment on the matter, and the issue does not appear to be fixed in the latest iOS 26.4.1 and iOS 26.4.2 software releases.
As far as I can tell, I also experienced this issue with my iPhone 17 Pro Max earlier this month. While staying at a hotel, I accidentally forgot to charge the device one night, leading it to shut off on me when I woke up the next morning. Naturally, I plugged in a USB-C cable, but the screen remained black with no battery icon for many minutes. At the time, I thought that maybe the hotel's outlets were not working correctly, but I knew something was up after I tried a variety of different outlets and chargers without success.
Just like Mayo, I was eventually able to get my iPhone to turn on by placing it on a MagSafe charger and waiting about 10 to 15 minutes. In my case, it was a MagSafe battery pack from Anker that I carry with me while traveling.
A few Reddit users said the standard iPhone 17 model is also impacted.
All in all, it would appear that the new iPhones have a hit-or-miss charging problem when they fully run out of battery, but there is no guarantee that everyone will experience it. With the issue now receiving attention on 9to5Mac and MacRumors, hopefully Apple is made aware and provides a fix in an upcoming iOS version.Related Roundups: iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone AirBuyer's Guide: iPhone 17 Pro (Neutral), iPhone Air (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

'AirPods Ultra' Rumored to Feature a Major Upgrade Over AirPods Pro In a social media post this week, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reiterated that Apple is planning to release new AirPods with cameras "for Siri."
Last month, Gurman said these AirPods will likely be priced above the current AirPods Pro 3, which Apple sells for $249. As a result, he said Apple is likely considering using "AirPods Ultra" branding for the camera-equipped AirPods.
"AirPods Ultra" would not have typical cameras for capturing photos and videos. Instead, Gurman previously reported that the earbuds will be equipped with infrared cameras that use computer vision to feed data about a user's surroundings to Siri. The cameras should help to enhance the Visual Intelligence feature on the iPhone 15 Pro and newer.
This would be similar to the infrared camera built into the Face ID system on iPhones.
In June 2024, Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said AirPods with cameras would potentially enable "in-air gesture control." In his post this week, however, Gurman said he does not expect the AirPods to support hand gestures.
It was initially rumored that the camera-equipped AirPods would be a higher-end AirPods Pro 3 configuration, much like the AirPods 4 are available in variants with or without active noise cancellation. However, it is increasingly sounding like the earbuds will instead be "AirPods Ultra" positioned above the AirPods Pro entirely.
Macworld's Filipe Espósito recently reported that Apple plans to release an "iPhone Ultra" and a "MacBook Ultra" within the next year, so "AirPods Ultra" would be part of a trio of new "Ultra" devices. Apple already uses "Ultra" branding for the Apple Watch Ultra, CarPlay Ultra, and the M1 Ultra to M3 Ultra series of chips.
It is not entirely clear when the "AirPods Ultra" will arrive, but September of this year is a possibility if Apple plans to announce them alongside the "iPhone Ultra," its long-rumored foldable iPhone. A redesigned "MacBook Ultra" with an OLED display and touch-screen capabilities is expected to follow by early 2027.Related Roundup: AirPods Pro 3Tags: AirPods Ultra, Mark GurmanBuyer's Guide: AirPods Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: AirPodsThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Leads Global Market for Satellite-Connected Smartphones Apple remains the top manufacturer of satellite-capable smartphones globally, with such devices projected to reach 46% of all smartphone shipments by 2030, according to a new report from Counterpoint Research.
The firm's Smartphone Satellite Connection Report finds that Apple kickstarted the satellite phone trend when it partnered with Globalstar to bring Emergency SOS via satellite to the iPhone 14 in 2022 and has maintained a clear lead since. Samsung leads the Android ecosystem, while Huawei and Google also follow a proprietary approach. Other Android players, including Xiaomi, OPPO, HONOR, and vivo, have aligned with the 3GPP non-terrestrial network (NTN) standard to enable broader scalability and interoperability.
The market is currently dominated by the premium segment, with the lack of compelling everyday use cases limiting broader adoption. 3GPP Release 17 supports only SOS messaging and basic location sharing. Release 18 is expected to expand adoption further across premium brands, but mass-market penetration in the mid-price segment is not anticipated until Release 19.
Qualcomm leads among Android vendors with its Snapdragon X80 and X85 modems, with MediaTek, Samsung, Google, and Huawei all increasing competition. North America is the leading region for adoption, driven by carrier partnerships including T-Mobile with SpaceX, AT&T with AST Mobile, and Rogers with SpaceX, alongside Apple's Globalstar arrangement. Amazon's acquisition of Globalstar is seen as a notable development, potentially opening new connectivity-as-a-service revenue streams.
Counterpoint expects Apple, Google, and Samsung to lead in overall market penetration toward 2030, with Android brands targeting entry-level and mid-range price points seeing slower uptake. Apple recently agreed a new satellite deal with Amazon following its acquisition of Globalstar, and has several new satellite features in development, including Maps via satellite, photos in Messages via satellite, and a satellite API for third-party apps.Tags: Counterpoint, Emergency SOS via Satellite, iPhone Satellite FeaturesThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

If there’s one thing I’m absolutely sure of, it’s that every one of us needs a few extra ports for extra drives and accessories, but even the smallest hubs will take up desk space that no one has to spare. That’s where this clever USB-C Clamp Hub comes in, and it’s on sale for just $15.46 right now.
This tiny little thing is so cool because, thanks to the C-clamp, you can mount it up to the underside of your monitor, for instance. You can, of course, also mount it to the very edge of your desk so it takes up very little of that precious space. This tiny little thing only needs an edge measuring between 0.19 and 1.1 inches and features three USB-A ports and one USB-C port, so you won’t have to worry about taking out a tiny dongle just to be able to use a flash drive.
You won’t even have to worry about setting it up close to your desktop or laptop. This hub doesn’t have a built-in cable like some other models (though it does include a 2-in-1 cable in the box). The USB-C port on the back gives you flexibility to use whatever cable you want, and it also has an optional 5V USB-C port that can keep your connected devices charged.
Go ahead and grab the Orico USB-C Clamp hub for just $15.46 off while this deal’s still live.

Drop MagSafe from the iPhone? No, Apple’s smarter than that Macworld
Apple has made some dubious design decisions over the past 15 years, from FineWoven to the AirPods Max Smart Case. We hope that trend is about to change, under the company’s new perfectionist CEO, but even the current management is too smart to drop MagSafe from the iPhone line, as claimed by a new report.
The Weibo leaker Instant Digital, who posts a lot but doesn’t have an especially strong track record of accurate predictions, claimed earlier this week that Apple has been debating whether to maintain MagSafe as a standard feature on the iPhone. “When MagSafe was first introduced, the internal stance was very aggressive,” the leaker adds. “There were even plans to include it as a standard feature on iPads, which I mentioned before, but ultimately didn’t happen. Now they’re starting to waver.”
The rationale behind this debate, Instant Digital claims, is the “sacrifice” involved in building MagSafe into each device. And it’s undoubtedly the case that MagSafe imposes a burden on phone designers: it requires the inclusion of a ring of magnets as well as the necessary inductive charging coils. Apple could make its iPhone thinner and lighter if it were able to drop MagSafe, and early prototypes suggest that the foldable iPhone Ultra may not get the feature. It’s notable, however, that the super-thin iPhone Air did get MagSafe, so it’s not like this is an insurmountable problem.
The iPhone 17e gained MagSafe this year.David Price / Foundry
If true, however, the iPhone Ultra won’t be the first model in recent years to miss out on MagSafe. The iPhone 16e suffered from the same omission, although it isn’t clear whether this decision was made in order to cut costs, help with design/manufacturing processes, encourage upsell to costlier alternatives, or (the official reasoning) because target buyers simply didn’t want it. It’s worth pointing out that the iPhone 17e gained MagSafe, albeit a slower version than that seen on other contemporary iPhones, and this upgrade was a major factor in that device getting a higher review score than its predecessor.
As I’ve explained elsewhere, MagSafe is a transformative feature. Before it came along, the options for iPhone owners were using a cable (fiddly, particularly when the cable inevitably slips down behind the nightstand) or non-magnetic wireless charging (also fiddly, and prone to leaving you with a dead phone in the morning because it got nudged off the sweet spot). We still have wired charging for moments where speed is the priority, but for all other times, MagSafe is the most convenient and frictionless way to perform a much-repeated task. Going back to the pre-MagSafe world while reviewing the iPhone 16e was far more annoying and inconvenient than I ever would have expected.
With this in mind, I’d be very surprised if Apple’s supposed debate about the future of MagSafe led to terminal action. Apple (as well as the rest of the smartphone world) knows MagSafe is a winner, and as Instant Digital acknowledges, the ecosystem of licensed MagSafe-ready accessories is itself a non-trivial source of revenue. That doesn’t mean there won’t be exceptions to the rule: the company tried to live without the tech on the 16e, for example, and it seems likely we’ll see something similar on the first-gen iPhone Ultra. But the standard, surely, will be to include MagSafe, because it’s too good to die and too important to limit to the Pro models only.

Apple Launched AirTag 5 Years Ago Today Apple's AirTag item tracker turns five years old today, with the $29 accessory having spent half a decade as the best-selling item tracker in the world.
The AirTag launched on April 30, 2021, alongside the M1 iMac, a new iPad Pro, and a new Apple TV 4K. The coin-shaped accessory has a polished stainless steel back, IP67 water resistance, and a U1 Ultra Wideband chip that powers Precision Finding, a feature that combines haptic, visual, and audio feedback to guide users to a lost item's precise location with the iPhone 11 and later.
Setup works by bringing the tag close to an iPhone, with each AirTag appearing in the Items tab of the Find My app. The Find My network, which relies on Bluetooth signals from nearby Apple devices to relay location data, allows a lost item to be tracked even when out of direct range. The AirTag is priced at $29 for a single tag or $99 for a four-pack, with free engraving available.
Reports of the AirTag being misused for stalking and vehicle theft surfaced within months of launch, with its small size, low price, and the breadth of the Find My network making it an attractive tool for bad actors. Apple released a statement in February 2022 saying incidents of misuse were "rare; however, each instance is one too many," and introduced setup warnings making clear that using an AirTag to track people without consent is a crime in many regions.
A class-action lawsuit filed in California in December 2022, later expanded to include more than three dozen plaintiffs, alleged that the product's accuracy and affordability made it well-suited for misuse, and a federal judge allowed certain claims to move forward in March 2024. Apple and Google later aligned on cross-platform specifications so that Android users receive automatic unwanted tracking alerts alongside iPhone users.
Despite the controversy, Apple says the AirTag became its best-selling item tracking accessory, citing user stories of recovering lost luggage, bicycles, and bags in the years since launch.
Apple released the second-generation AirTag in January 2026. The updated model features a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip with Precision Finding working from up to 50% farther away, an upgraded Bluetooth chip, and a speaker 50% louder than the original. For the first time, Precision Finding also works with Apple Watch Series 9 models and later. A teardown revealed that the speaker magnet is more firmly secured in the second-generation model, making it harder to remove, a modification that had previously been used to silence unwanted tracking alerts. Pricing remains $29 for a single tag and $99 for a four-pack.Related Roundup: AirTagBuyer's Guide: AirTag (Buy Now)This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

I dumped Adobe for Apple and got everything I need for less Macworld
For years, Adobe Creative Cloud has been an essential part of my workflow. While I’m always writing as a journalist, I’m also constantly editing photos and videos, and Photoshop, Premiere, Lightroom, and other apps have been essential to my work. But like many freelance creators, I started to wonder if paying such a high price for Adobe apps was really worth it.
Even before Apple Creator Studio became a reality, I had already decided to switch from Adobe to Apple and Pixelmator apps (which now belong to Apple). If you’re also wondering whether the switch is worth it, read on as I detail how this decision impacted my workflow and which suite is better.
Adobe made sense, until it didn’t
I’m not here to disparage Adobe apps. There’s a reason why Adobe dominates the industry when it comes to creativity apps. Creative Cloud offers powerful tools that work seamlessly with each other and are widely used in professional environments.
Few things are easier than starting to edit a photo in Lightroom and retouching it in Photoshop with just a few clicks. Plus, if you work in a team, at an agency, or in a corporate environment, Adobe is usually the standard. It’s hard to be the only one using different software when you need to collaborate with others.
But as a solo creator, I started to realize that I wasn’t actually using most of what I was paying for.
Adobe’s Creative Cloud apps are incredibly powerful, but are also very expensive. Foundry
I’ve been an independent journalist for years, and I also work from home. And as a Mac user, I started to notice that Adobe apps aren’t really optimized to take advantage of all the newer features in Apple hardware and software. All of Adobe’s apps run natively on Apple silicon, of course, but Adobe doesn’t keep up with the latest advancements in hardware or software as Apple does.
And yet, I was locked into a subscription that kept getting more expensive and harder to cancel. Annual plans, cancellation fees, and constant subscription renewals created a sense that I was renting my tools indefinitely, whether I wanted them or not.
Pixelmator Pro replaced Photoshop more easily than expected
There’s no denying that Photoshop is the most powerful image editor on the market. There’s no denying that. But I also realized that I didn’t need all that power most days.
My main use for Photoshop was to create artwork and crop images for my articles, or make templates for social media posts. I’m not a novice user, but I also didn’t really need all of Photoshop’s advanced tools.
Pixelmator Pro is a worthy alternative to Photoshop.Foundry
I gave other apps such as Affinity Photo a try and ended up choosing Pixelmator Pro as my new image editor. At the time, Apple hadn’t yet acquired the app, and it was only available for Mac, which wasn’t a problem since I prefer working on my Mac anyway.
With Pixelmator Pro, you can work with multiple layers, add shapes, text, and masks, remove backgrounds, adjust colors, apply effects, and more. But one of my favorite features is Super Resolution, which uses AI to restore low-resolution images.
Pixelmator Pro doesn’t have as many tools as Photoshop, but it gets the job done and covers everything I need for retouching, compositing, cropping, and easy exporting to the web and social media. The interface is much cleaner and easier to use than Photoshop’s, which is great for beginners.
And Pixelmator Pro is a great Mac app. It’s built with the latest technologies and runs extremely smoothly on Apple silicon Macs. It became clear to me that I no longer needed Photoshop in my life. It started to feel like overkill.
Photomator is the perfect Lightroom alternative
In order to dump Adobe, I also needed a replacement for Lightroom. Since I was already using Pixelmator Pro, Photomator felt like the best and most natural choice. From the same developers as Pixelmator Pro and now also owned by Apple, Photomator is the perfect app for batch editing photos.
Photomator is an underrated tool for touching up photos.Foundry
It has all the essential tools for editing photos with color and texture correction, LUT support, automatic subject and background selection, and compatibility with multiple RAW formats. It’s also super easy to use and integrates with the iCloud Photos library, which is a huge plus for me.
Like Pixelmator Pro, Photomator also has some interesting AI-based features, such as Super Resolution, Smart Deband to remove color banding artifacts, Denoise to remove camera noise, and Repair to remove imperfections or entire objects from a photo.
I also find that Photomator runs noticeably faster and smoother on my Mac than Lightroom. Plus, Photomator is available on iPhone and iPad, so I can edit photos right from my phone or retouch them with Apple Pencil on my iPad.
Final Cut Pro is a real upgrade over Premiere
When it comes to video editing, both Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro offer advanced tools and are widely used in the industry. But for me, Final Cut is much easier to use.
Despite having professional tools for color grading, LUTs, transitions, and effects, Apple designed Final Cut Pro with an interface that makes it look like iMovie. Even if you’ve never edited a video before, you’ll learn how to use it in no time.
Final Cut Pro is superior in many ways to Premiere.Foundry
Of course, if you’re coming from Adobe Premiere, there’s definitely a learning curve. You have to relearn the interface, menus, keyboard shortcuts, and adjust your workflow. But once you do, you’ll master Final Cut and enjoy some excellent new tools.
My favorite thing about Final Cut Pro over Premiere is the magnetic timeline. You can easily drag and drop videos, images, and audio files onto the timeline to rearrange them as you like, while Premiere is still track-based and much more complex to compose your videos.
Once again, performance is also a key aspect of Final Cut Pro. It runs infinitely better than Adobe Premiere on macOS, and rendering time is also much faster. This really helps speed up my workflow.
How the iPad fits
I switched from Adobe to Apple because I’m more of a Mac person. Still, I have an iPad Pro that helps me work on the go.
Both Apple Creator Studio and Adobe Creative Cloud offer versions of their apps for the iPad, but there are a few things to keep in mind. iPad apps, whether from Apple or Adobe, lack some of the features found in their desktop versions.
With my Adobe subscription, I had access to iPad versions of Photoshop, Lightroom, and even Premiere. They were far from being desktop apps, but still quite useful when my Mac wasn’t around.
Apple Creator Studio is just a few months old and already has some excellent features for the price.Apple
When it comes to Creator Studio, you’ll find both Final Cut Pro and Pixelmator Pro on the iPad. However, while I love Final Cut Pro on the Mac, the iPad version still feels too basic. The mobile version of Premiere offers more tools (such as using AI to enhance audio) and is even available on the iPhone. I miss that, and it feels like a missed opportunity for Apple.
Pixelmator Pro on iPad has pretty much the same tools available on the Mac, but with some limitations. You can’t open files with a huge number of layers, for example. Meanwhile, Photomator for iPad is also an excellent app, but here’s the thing: It’s not part of Creator Studio, which means you have to buy it separately ($119 or $30/year). Even worse, buying the Mac version doesn’t give you access to the iPad version, so you essentially need to buy it twice.
So if you want to focus on creating on the iPad, Adobe is probably still be the best option. As I previously wrote here on Macworld, Apple hasn’t fully figured out Pro apps for the iPad yet.
The price difference is a no-brainer
Adobe Creative Cloud is powerful, but it’s expensive, especially if you need more than one app. Even the Photography plan with Photoshop and Lightroom adds up over time, and the full Creative Cloud subscription can feel heavy if you’re working independently.
Apple, on the other hand, has a much more appealing deal with Creator Studio. For $12.99 per month or $129 per year, you get access to Final Cut Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Logic Pro, and many other apps. The only downside is that Photomator is not included in the bundle (a lifetime license costs $119).
Adobe, on the other hand, charges $19.99 per month for its Photography plan with only two apps. If you want the full suite, it will cost you $69.99 per month if you commit to a full year or $104.99 on a per-month basis, and canceling incurs hefty fees. For independent creators, the price difference matters a lot—especially when you consider that two months is more than a full year of Creator Studio.
Foundry
Why I don’t regret switching
When I first switched over to Creator Studio, I was afraid of losing important features by ditching Adobe apps. But in reality, Apple apps offer pretty much everything I need and are much more affordable. Final Cut Pro feels faster and more enjoyable to use on a Mac. Pixelmator Pro and Photomator cover everything I need for images without overwhelming me with features I’ll never touch.
Are Adobe apps more advanced in many areas? Absolutely. But for an independent creator working primarily within the Apple ecosystem, they’re not always necessary. I can still do my job, and I no longer pay a fortune for tools I wasn’t fully using.
If that’s the case for you (especially if you have a Mac), you should definitely give switching from Adobe to Apple apps a try.

FaceTime like a pro with these 7 hidden features Macworld
Back in 2010, Steve Jobs introduced FaceTime as an iPhone 4 perk, letting users video call their loved ones over Wi-Fi. The service matured over the years, bringing more advanced features like group calls, screen sharing, and much more. Despite its evolution, many users continue to rely on FaceTime for basic one-to-one audio and video calls, disregarding the slew of advanced tools it now offers. If you’re looking to make the most of FaceTime, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with these lesser-known tips and tricks.
Smooth operator
One of the main reasons many people are drawn to Apple-only setups is the ecosystem that brings all your devices together through a set of features Apple calls “Continuity.” Handoff is one of the popular Continuity features: it lets you seamlessly move a task from one Apple device to another. FaceTime supports it, so you can move audio and video calls between your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.
For example, if a video call is taking longer than expected and I’m tired of holding my iPhone, I can conveniently move it to my MacBook. Similarly, I can hand off a call from the living room’s TV to my iPhone if I’m heading out during a call.
Foundry
To use the feature, make sure the Handoff toggle is enabled under Settings > General > AirPlay & Continuity. Now, whenever you’re FaceTiming, all of your nearby devices will display a persistent notification that you can click to effortlessly move the call without interrupting it.
Take the wheel
Technology enthusiasts often become the default troubleshooters for their friends and family. FaceTime simplifies the process through its screen sharing feature. You could even doodle on the shared screen by tapping it, guiding the other party on where to tap. That’s not always efficient, however. Just tap the screen during a FaceTime call to show the controls, hit the share button and select Share My Screen.
Fortunately, FaceTime supports remote control; you can initiate a session by tapping the dedicated button in the bottom-right corner of the screen sharing interface. Once the other party approves your request, you’ll be able to remotely control their iPhone by tapping and swiping naturally on your screen. It truly makes resolving technical issues easier when you’re away from each other.
App-solute fun
SharePlay is another FaceTime perk that brings people together while they’re apart. During a call, tap the 3-dot menu (…), followed by SharePlay. This will bring up a list of installed apps that support the feature, such as popular music and video streaming services. Once you select an app and its relevant content, you’ll be able to enjoy it on your individual devices at the same time. It’s a neat way to socialize with faraway friends and keep the stream in sync.
Foundry
The aforementioned list also includes apps that support collaboration, including Apple’s own productivity suite. So, you could similarly collaborate on a document via SharePlay by following the same steps.
Face card never declines
Between messy rooms and unforgiving lighting, video calls can easily put participants on the spot. Luckily, FaceTime offers several enhancements that can polish your audio and video streams. Head to your iPhone’s Control Center during a call, and tap on the Controls bar at the very top. This will reveal several effects that you can instantly apply, including Portrait for blurring chaotic backgrounds, Studio Light for adjusting the lighting on your face, and Center Stage to keep you in frame as you move. Likewise, you can opt for the Voice Isolation option when sitting in noisy places to clean up your audio.
Foundry
If you’re using a Mac, you get to utilize a couple of exclusive perks, including virtual backgrounds to completely conceal your surroundings and Edge Light, which acts as a digital ring light.
Graphic responses
Speaking of effects, FaceTime supports more prominent ones that can emphasize a certain opinion or emotion during a call. The Reactions toolbox includes a heart, thumb up, thumb down, balloons, rain, confetti, lasers, and fireworks. To apply any of them, simply tap and hold on your thumbnail during a FaceTime video call, and pick the desired reaction. You could alternatively enable the Reactions toggle after expanding your video tile and perform their respective gestures to apply them.
Foundry
Links to the other side
If you’ve accidentally befriended Android or Windows users, you can actually FaceTime them, too. All you have to do is launch the FaceTime app on your iPhone, click on New Call, followed by Link (chain icon in the bottom-left corner). You can then optionally give the call a name and share the generated link via any messaging app.
Foundry
Keep in mind that anyone with the link will be able to request to join the call via a web browser. FaceTime doesn’t require them to sign in with an Apple Account, and they can assign themselves any alias. They’ll also be able to view your FaceTime caller ID (typically your phone number), so you should only share links privately with people you trust.
Eye-catching tech
During a FaceTime call, users naturally focus on the center of the screen, so you can see the other person. Because the front camera is positioned at the top, this creates the impression that you are looking downward instead of making eye contact. Your iPhone, however, can use its AI smarts to correct your gaze and establish virtual eye contact. Simply head to Settings > Apps > FaceTime, and enable the Eye Contact toggle. Et voilà.

YouTube Bringing Free Picture-in-Picture to iPhone Users Outside the U.S. YouTube's picture-in-picture mode on the iPhone and iPad is expanding to more users worldwide, YouTube said today. Picture-in-picture (PiP) will be rolling out globally, so it will no longer be limited to those in the U.S. and Premium subscribers.
Non-Premium users worldwide will be able to use PiP for longform, non-music content on iOS and Android. This has already been available in the U.S. and to Premium subscribers globally, so there will be no change for those users.
Premium Lite members can still use PiP for longform, non-music content, and Premium members can use PiP for music and non-music content.
Picture-in-picture shrinks a video into a small player that can be used alongside other apps. To use PiP, swipe up to exit the YouTube app, and the video will continue to play in a small window that can be moved anywhere on the display.
The PiP changes are rolling out "in the coming months," according to YouTube.Tag: YouTubeThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Google Photos to Get AI 'Wardrobe' Feature Google Photos is getting a new wardrobe planning feature that will help you decide what to wear. AI will pull in images of clothing from the Google Photos library, organizing clothing items into a digital closet. You will be able to put items together to create outfits, and even virtually try them with a digital avatar on to see how they'll look.
The Google Photos app will show all items of clothing in a new Wardrobe section in the Collections tab. Clothing can also be viewed in specific categories like tops or bottoms. Items of clothing can be mixed and matched to create outfits, and the results can be shared with friends or saved to a digital moodboard.
In the popular 1995 comedy Clueless, main character Cher Horowitz has an iconic digital wardrobe that Google seems to be making a reality with Google Photos. Cher uses a touchscreen computer to swipe through the clothes in her wardrobe, pairing different tops and bottoms to create an outfit. A built-in "Dress Me" button tells her if two items go together, and if they do, she can preview the clothes on a digital version of herself.
Google's version of the Clueless virtual wardrobe will be coming to Google Photos this summer. Google says it will be available to Android users first, and then iOS users.Tags: Google, Google Photos, PhotosThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple's AI Smart Glasses Likely to Support Hand Gesture Controls Apple is developing a set of AI smart glasses to rival products like the Meta Ray-Bans, and MacRumors has learned a few more details about Apple's work on the device from an inside source.
The AI glasses will include two cameras. A high-resolution camera will be included for capturing photos and videos that can be shared on social media and used like iPhone photos. A second lower-resolution wide-angle lens will read hand gestures and provide visual input for Siri.
Apple uses hand gesture-based input for the Vision Pro, and rumors suggest the AirPods Pro will be updated with low-resolution cameras and support for gestures as well. Apple appears to be leaning into gesture support, and it's an ideal input method when no screen is available to interact with.
While future versions of the smart glasses could include an integrated display for augmented reality features, the first version will have no display at all. Apple will not include a screen, LiDAR, 3D cameras, or other similar technology because such features are too energy-intensive.
Battery life is a major constraint because Apple needs to keep the glasses slim and lightweight. Battery size is the bottleneck behind the hardware decisions that Apple is making, and it's why Apple is opting for a stripped-down feature set.
According to recent rumors, Apple is testing multiple styles for the smart glasses, with plans to use acetate. Acetate is a lightweight plant-based material that's more flexible than plastic.
Apple's smart glasses will incorporate the smarter version of Siri that Apple plans to introduce in iOS 27. The device will be able to take photos, record video, and make phone calls, plus users will be able to interact with Siri to ask questions about what's around them. The feature set will be similar to the features available in the Meta Ray-Bans that Apple is aiming to compete with.

Rumored Apple Vision Pro team break-up isn't a death knell for the product A new rumor suggests Apple Vision Pro hardware may be dead, but the dissolution of a team doesn't necessarily mean that pipeline is dead. If anything, it's business as usual.Apple Vision Pro isn't deadWhenever Apple releases a new product category, there seems to be this industry drive to find its weak points and jab at it until it dies. Apple Vision Pro may not be a blockbuster, but it is the entry point to Spatial Computing, which Apple still believes to be its future.According to a report from MacRumors, Apple Vision Pro hardware as it stands in April 2026 may truly be dead. The story suggests that Apple has likely given up on the platform due to a lack of consumer interest after the M5 update. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Apple Gives Up On the Vision Pro After M5 Refresh Flop MacRumors reports that Apple has effectively paused work on Vision Pro after the M5 refresh failed to revive demand. The team has reportedly been reassigned and the company is now shifting focus toward smart glasses instead. From the report: The Vision Pro has been criticized for its high price tag and its uncomfortable weight. The device is over 1.3 pounds, and even with the more comfortable Dual Knit Band that Apple added to redistribute weight, it continues to be hard to wear for long periods of time. The M5 chip added a 120Hz refresh rate, 10 percent more rendered pixels, and around 30 additional minutes of battery life, but the price tag stayed at $3,499, and it ended up not selling well. The Vision Pro has been unpopular since it first launched, and Apple only sold around 600,000 units in total. Insider sources told MacRumors that Apple has received an unusually high percentage of returns, far exceeding any other modern Apple product.
[...] If Apple finds a way to create a much cheaper, more comfortable VR headset in the future, the Vision Pro line could be revived, but right now, the company has no plans to launch a new model. Apple has not discontinued the Vision Pro and is continuing to sell the M5 model. Instead of continuing to experiment with virtual reality, Apple is working on smart glasses that will eventually incorporate augmented reality capabilities, but the first version will be similar to the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses with AI and no integrated display.

Apple Has Given Up on the Vision Pro After M5 Refresh Flop Apple has all but given up on the Vision Pro after the M5 model failed to revitalize interest in the device, MacRumors has learned. Apple updated the Vision Pro with a faster M5 chip and a more comfortable band in October 2025, but there were no other hardware changes, and consumers still weren't interested.
The Vision Pro has been criticized for its high price tag and its uncomfortable weight. The device is over 1.3 pounds, and even with the more comfortable Dual Knit Band that Apple added to redistribute weight, it continues to be hard to wear for long periods of time. The M5 chip added a 120Hz refresh rate, 10 percent more rendered pixels, and around 30 additional minutes of battery life, but the price tag stayed at $3,499, and it ended up not selling well.
The Vision Pro has been unpopular since it first launched, and Apple only sold around 600,000 units in total. Insider sources told MacRumors that Apple has received an unusually high percentage of returns, far exceeding any other modern Apple product.
Apple has apparently stopped work on the Vision Pro and the Vision Pro team has been redistributed to other teams within Apple. Some former Vision Pro team members are working on Siri, which is not a surprise as Vision Pro chief Mike Rockwell has been leading the Siri team since March 2025.
There have been mixed rumors about a new Vision Pro over the last couple of years, with Apple rumored to be working on a lighter-weight Vision Air that's much cheaper, but the project was tabled last year. If Apple finds a way to create a much cheaper, more comfortable VR headset in the future, the Vision Pro line could be revived, but right now, the company has no plans to launch a new model. Apple has not discontinued the Vision Pro and is continuing to sell the M5 model.
Instead of continuing to experiment with virtual reality, Apple is working on smart glasses that will eventually incorporate augmented reality capabilities, but the first version will be similar to the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses with AI and no integrated display.
Apple has not been able to use the technology developed for the Vision Pro in its smart glasses because that tech draws too much power for a smaller, lighter device.Related Roundup: Apple Vision ProBuyer's Guide: Vision Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: Apple Vision ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

New ‘Siri mode’ is reportedly coming to iPhone Camera app in iOS 27 Macworld
Another day, another scoop from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman on the features coming to iOS 27 this fall. Gurman leaked three new AI-powered photo-editing features just yesterday, and today he’s got another AI-based feature coming to iPhones.
According to his report, Apple is going to give Visual Intelligence a big upgrade, but will also make it easier to discover and use by integrating it into the Camera app via a new Siri mode. Think of it like any other camera mode—video, slo-mo, panorama, etc.—only when in Siri mode, the shutter will reportedly morph into a Siri icon to trigger Visual Intelligence.
We previously reported on the big upgrade coming to Visual Intelligence in iOS 27, with much less reliance on ChatGPT for information along with the ability to produce digital tickets/passes from paper ones, read and understand nutritional labels, and add phone numbers and addresses to Contacts.
Currently, Visual Intelligence can be summoned by pressing the Camera Button and holding it for a couple seconds or through Control Center, but placing the feature right in the Camera app will ensure almost every iPhone user discovers it and at least tries it out.
Apple will unveil iOS 27 (and all the OS 27 updates) at WWDC in June, and it is expected to release this September.
iOS 27 could add Siri camera mode and expanded visual AI Apple adding Siri camera mode and expanded Visual Intelligence should make AI feel core to iPhone with iOS 27.

Apple Has Likely Abandoned 'iPad Ultra' Plans Apple has reportedly abandoned plans for a foldable "iPad Ultra" following years of disappointing sales performance for the iPad Pro.
The claim predominantly comes from the Weibo leaker known as "Instant Digital," who posted the remark in response to a question about whether the iPad would join a rumored "Ultra" series of Apple devices. Instant Digital listed the Apple Watch Ultra, M-series Ultra chips, "iPhone Ultra," and "MacBook Ultra" with an OLED display as products in the pipeline, but explicitly excluded the iPad from that group, citing weak market performance for the iPad Pro. They added that Apple now has "no plans" to release an iPad Ultra.
The iPad Pro's sales struggles are well documented. In October 2024, it was reported that shipment projections for the M4 iPad Pro had been significantly cut after weaker-than-expected demand following its launch earlier that year. DSCC analyst Ross Young lowered his full-year 2024 forecast from up to 10 million units to just 6.7 million, with shipments of the 13-inch model projected to fall by more than 50% and 90% in the third and fourth quarters respectively.
Young attributed the sluggish reception in part to the high price point, with the 11-inch model starting at $999 and the 13-inch at $1,299, levels that deter buyers who view tablets as secondary devices alongside a smartphone or laptop. iPad revenue has declined for three consecutive years, and the category accounted for just 6.73% of Apple's total revenue in 2025.
In his latest "Power On" newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said that Apple has been developing a 20-inch foldable iPad, describing the project as a priority for Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering and future Apple CEO John Ternus. Gurman noted, however, that the device "may end up being a wacky experiment that doesn't see the light of day, according to several people who have worked on it."
The rumored foldable iPad has a long and troubled development history. Last October, it emerged that engineering challenges tied to weight, features, and display technology had pushed Apple's target launch from 2028 to 2029 or later. The device was reportedly being developed with a large Samsung OLED display, with Apple focused on minimizing the visible crease, just like the upcoming foldable iPhone.
Prototype units reportedly weighed around 3.5 pounds, making them heavier than a 14-inch MacBook Pro and nearly three times the weight of a 13-inch iPad Pro. The device could have been priced as high as $3,900, roughly triple the $1,299 starting price of the 13-inch iPad Pro.
There has also been uncertainty about how the product would be categorized. In March, Gurman noted that a "gigantic" foldable iPad would challenge Apple's tradition of keeping the Mac and iPad as separate product lines, with some internally describing it as a foldable iPad and others as an all-display MacBook. When closed, the device reportedly resembles a Mac, with an aluminum shell and no exterior display. The design is said to be similar to Huawei's MateBook Fold, an 18-inch foldable tablet currently priced at $3,400.
The reports come against a backdrop of Apple's rumored plans to expand its "Ultra" branding across multiple product lines. At least three Ultra devices are believed to be in the pipeline for this year alone: a foldable iPhone Ultra priced at around $2,000, AirPods Ultra with cameras for Visual Intelligence, and a MacBook Ultra featuring a touch-enabled OLED display priced up to 20% above the current MacBook Pro lineup. A source speaking to Macworld subsequently corroborated the iPhone Ultra and MacBook Ultra names.
Apple already applies the "Ultra" moniker to Apple Watch Ultra, M-series Ultra chips, and CarPlay Ultra. An iPad Ultra might seem like a natural fit for a family of higher-end, more experimental hardware at the top of each lineup, but with the iPad Pro already struggling to find buyers at its current price point, the question of whether sufficient demand exists for an even more expensive iPad may be answering itself.Related Roundup: iPad ProTags: Bloomberg, Foldable iPad, Instant Digital, John Ternus, Mark GurmanBuyer's Guide: iPad Pro (Neutral)This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
