iPhone 18 Pro to get smaller hole punch for selfie and Face ID camera
Previous claims of an under-display Face ID and camera for the iPhone 18 Pro have been scaled back, suggesting now that the 2026 flagship iPhone may only have a smaller display hole.The Digital Island could shrink considerably for the iPhone 18Regular and reasonably — if sporadically — accurate leaker Digital Chat Station has once more claimed to have reports about the display on the iPhone 18 Pro. Previously he or she has maintained that the current Dynamic Island will go, and be replaced by an under-display camera and Face ID system.Now, writing on the Chinese social media site Weibo, Digital Chat Station says that Apple is considering a smaller hole-in-active-area (HIAA). This is a precision-drilled hole in the display, used to give the camera an unobstructed field of view. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Apple’s $1B Google AI deal will be great for iPhone users. Until it’s not
Macworld The news of Apple’s pending deal with Google says a lot. While neither Apple nor Google will likely ever publicly acknowledge it outside of necessary financial disclosures, Apple fans should take note. It’s a very good thing for users. And also very concerning. We should be equally pleased and worried. The Deal The deal, as it has been reported (Apple has not officially acknowledged it) will see Apple paying Google about $1B a year to use a customized version of its Gemini AI model for the new Siri, which should be released to users in the spring. The model is big and advanced, with a reported 1.2 trillion parameters, and will run on Apple’s own Private Cloud Compute servers so neither Google nor anyone else gets to scoop up your data. The partnership seemingly was struck after Apple evaluated Google’s AI, along with others from Anthropic and OpenAI, against its own internally developed LLM technology. What it means for users As a user, this is all pretty good news. The latest versions of Gemini are among the top LLMs in the industry—benchmarks vary, and Apple’s version might not be the same as Gemini 2.5 Pro, but it’s clear that Apple isn’t going with a second-rate model here. Of course, talking to the new Siri won’t be just like talking to Google’s Gemini. For one, the voices will sound different, but they’ll also have different priorities and tuning, and Siri will have access to the private data stored on your phone. You could think of it as two completely different cars that have the same engine but different options and chassis. Apple will use Gemini’s LLM as a foundation for the new Siri, but the two assistants wil still be very different.Foundry The fact that Apple was willing to break out the checkbook to use a core technology from another company for one of its most important (and oft-maligned) features speaks volumes to a change of mindset in Cupertino. When Apple needs new core technology, it usually builds it or buys a company that already has (often both). That Apple is willing to step away from its homegrown mentality to deliver a new Siri that doesn’t disappoint is worthy of applause. Not Invented Here But Apple fans should also be wary. I’m generally critical of Apple’s “Not Invented Here” ethos, where it seemingly needs to own or build everything, whether it’s good for its users or not. There are lots of examples of that working out well—it took a long time, but Apple’s cellular modems and N1 networking chips give an experience at last as good as the Qualcomm and Broadcom stuff did—, but there instances where Apple’s stubbon reliance on in-house tech didn’t make sense. For example, when OpenGL outlived its usefulness as a graphics API, Apple could have moved to the open Vulkan standard that replaced it, helping shape its future. Instead, it developed its own graphics API, Metal, and I’m not convinced that it was better for developers or users. I don’t think Apple needed its own lossless audio format. Perhaps most notably, Google pays Apple some $20 billion a year for Google to be the default search engine for Safari. And yes, there are other search engine options, but we all know almost nobody strays from the default, which is why it’s worth so much to Google. The Apple Maps rollout was bumpy at best.Apple Inc That hasn’t been good for users. Google has been steadily degrading its search results experience while using the data from all those searches to consolidate its control over search and web advertising. If there’s anything Apple should have invested years ago, it is building its own privacy-minded, ad-free web search. And we all know about the Apple Maps fiasco. The company’s attempt to stop relying on a third-party mapping service resulted in a terrible product, ironically because that product was built with a mishmash of data that it didn’t own or control. It took years for Apple to build a Maps experience using all its own data, and now that it has, the experience is top-tier. Apple needs its own LLM So it’s clear that some core technologies Apple needs to build for itself and have total control over, while others it can and probably should find outside solutions for. A foundation AI large language model is definitely in the former category. As the years roll on, AI models are going to be part of so much more than chatbots. AI models are all over Apple’s products, from cameras recognizing your gestures to image editing to notification summaries and more. But the big foundational LLM that interacts with users and does everything from controlling our devices to gathering information about the world, that’s the most important AI model in the stack. Apple having its own top-tier LLM is as important as Apple controlling any other major piece of its technology stack. It’s arguably going to be more important than Apple having its own web browser. It’s great news that Apple recognized that its own internally developed LLM isn’t good enough right now, and is willing to go to Google to solve the problem. But in the end, Apple desperately needs to catch up or surpass the technology it is buying. And it’s not clear if it has the ability to do that, as competitors’ LLMs continue to improve and Apple seemingly loses AI talent every week. As a user, you should be glad about the Apple-Google-Gemini-Siri AI deal. As long as it doesn’t last.

7 iOS 26.1 features that will convince you to install it on your iPhone right away
Macworld Just over a month after the official release of iOS 26 to the public, Apple is now rolling out iOS 26.1, the first major update to Apple’s new iPhone OS. While the 26.1 update isn’t a huge one, it does bring some important new settings and interface tweaks. From an option to adjust the intensity of Liquid Glass to new gestures on the Lock Screen and the Music app, read on as we dig into everything new in iOS 26.1 and why you should rush to update your iPhone or iPad right now. @macworld.com What’s new in iOS 26.1 #ios #iphone #apple ♬ original sound – Macworld – Macworld Make Liquid Glass more frosted One of the main highlights of iOS 26 is the new Liquid Glass interface. However, Apple’s attempt to make its operating system look fresher and more modern has resulted in as many complaints as compliments. After many attempts to fine-tune Liquid Glass, Apple decided to give users control over the interface. That’s because iOS 26.1 adds a new toggle to radically adjust the appearance of Liquid Glass. Now you can choose between “Clear” mode to stick with Liquid Glass’s transparency or “Tinted” mode for higher opacity and better contrast. You can now opt out of Liquid Glass.Foundry To do this, go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Liquid Glass and choose the best option for you. If you’re part of the group of users who were unhappy with Liquid Glass in iOS 26.1, you’ll certainly appreciate the new “Tinted” mode. Of course, if you like Liquid Glass, you don’t need to do anything about it – and you can rest easy without worrying about Apple backtracking on Liquid Glass now that there’s an option. Don’t sleep through alarms anymore iOS 26 brought another small but impactful change to the lives of iPhone users: the alarm interface. Some users didn’t like how Apple made the stop alarm button much larger in iOS 26 and placed it just below the Snooze button, which is the same size but a different color. As a result, a number of users have claimed that they’re oversleeping because they turned off the alarm instead of hitting the snooze right after waking up. Alarms are much harder to turn off in iOS 26.1.Foundry To fix this, iOS 26.1 once again tweaks the alarm interface. Now, Apple has added a “Slide to Stop” feature, which requires users to slide their finger from left to right to turn off alarms completely. But if you think that’s too complicated and want the old Stop button back, here’s what you can do. Once you install iOS 26, go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch and enable the “Prefer Single-Touch Actions” toggle. This will bring back the button to stop the alarm instead of the new swipe gesture. Stop accidentally launching the camera While iOS already offers an option for users to remove the Camera button from the Lock Screen, the app is also accessible by swiping from right to left. If, for some reason, you want to completely remove access to the Camera app from the Lock Screen, you can now do so. By going to Settings > Camera and turning off the “Lock Screen Swipe to Open Camera” toggle, the Camera app will no longer be accessible by swiping your finger on the Lock Screen. Of course, you can still access the app in other ways, such as by pressing the Camera Control on iPhone 16 or later. But that can also be turned off. Although swiping to open the Camera app is meant to be a useful shortcut, some users complain about accidental launches when the iPhone is in their pocket, resulting in excessive battery drain. If that’s the case, iOS 26.1 is the update for you. Swipe to change tracks iOS 26.1 also makes it easier to skip songs in the Apple Music app. Instead of having to open the full-screen player or press any buttons, all you need to do now is swipe your finger on the mini player to skip to the next song or go back to the previous one. Give it a try after you update: play an album or playlist, then minimize the player and test the swipe gestures. Although it’s not a life-changing feature, it’s certainly slicker than tapping the skip button. Apple Music has a new skip gesture in iOS 26.1.Foundry Use Apple Intelligence in more languages Introduced last year, Apple Intelligence is what Apple calls its set of AI-based features. This includes things like Writing Tools for reviewing text, Genmoji for creating your own emojis, and Visual Intelligence for searching for things with your iPhone camera. Apple Intelligence has been available in the following languages: English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, and Korean. With iOS 26.1, Apple is expanding support for Apple Intelligence to more languages. These include: Chinese (Traditional), Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Portuguese (Portugal), Vietnamese, and Turkish. If you speak one of these languages and have a compatible device (iPhone 15 Pro or later), go to Settings > Apple Intelligence & Siri after updating to iOS 26.1 and make sure to enable the Apple Intelligence toggle. Quickly patch security holes As we previously reported here at Macworld, iOS 26.1 revamped a feature formerly known as “Rapid Security Responses.” Now called “Security Improvements,” the feature can automatically and silently install security patches on your iPhone or iPad without requiring you to download a new version of iOS. If you want to make sure your device is always secure with the latest patches, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Background Security Improvements and enable the Automatically Install option. Security updates will be much less painful after the iOS 26.1 update is installed.Foundry This may sound like a small thing, but many users forget to install iOS updates. That’s why having the option to install security patches automatically without any action is actually huge. Get Slide Over back on iPad Good news for iPad users. iPadOS 26.1 brings back Slide Over, one of the iPad’s multitasking features that lets users keep an app always visible on the screen, overlaying other apps. Although iPadOS 26 has improved multitasking and window management in many ways, the removal of Slide Over has left some iPad users upset. Thankfully, Apple listened to the feedback and brought the feature back. This time, users will find Slide Over by tapping and holding the green resize button in the upper-left corner of any app window.  Slide Over disappeared in iOS 26, but it’s back in iOS 26.1.Foundry Update now For those who have already updated to iOS 26, the update to version 26.1 makes the system even more reliable and secure, and adds some extra features. And if you’re still running iOS 18 for some reason, now might be the right time to update to iOS 26 and take advantage of everything new in iOS 26.1. You can update your device by going to Settings > General > Software Update. It’s available for all iPhones and iPads already compatible with iOS 26.

VectoTech Rapid 16TB USB SSD review: Uber vast, decently fast
Macworld At a glanceExpert's Rating Pros Available with up to 16TB 550MBps throughput and super fast seeks Slim, attractive, and lightweight Cons Slow compared to 20/40Gbps NVMe SSDs 16TB version is pricey indeed Our Verdict VectoTech’s attractive, slim Rapid 16TB USB SSD has twice the capacity of most external SSDs. That in and of itself will sell units, but it’s SATA inside, so while seeks are fast, throughput is 550MBps max. Price When Reviewed This value will show the geolocated pricing text for product undefined Best Pricing Today Best Prices Today: Rapid External SSD USB-C Portable Solid State Drive Retailer Price Check Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide Product Price Price comparison from Backmarket SSDs have an issue: relatively low capacities. VectoTech’s Rapid 16TB provides a solution, albeit for quite a bit of cash. Being SATA-based, it’s not as fast as most external SSDs. But for performance, portability, and reliability, even a SATA SSD beats the heck out of a hard disk drive (HDD). The Rapid is a thin and relatively svelte 5.15 by 3.15 by 0.4-inch rectangle styled in silver with a black bumper running around the edge. It’s pretty good-looking, in my book. The internals are SATA-based and the bus is 10Gbps USB. NVMe SSDs are faster. But you might remember (you might not) that it was SATA SSDs that freed the world from the slothful seek and load times that HDDs suffer. And lest that seem unfair to HDDs, those are what freed us from floppies and tape. The bottom of the VectoTech Rapid 16TB with its anti-skid feet. Being only decently fast, the Rapid’s most attractive selling points by far are ruggedness and capacity. SSDs are not prone to mechanical damage as hard drives are, and you simply can’t get 16TB of SSD storage in a form factor this small anywhere else, as far as we’re aware. Even small NVMe RAID enclosures (NVMe currently tops out at 8TB per drive) are generally larger and thicker. Forget HDDs, even 2.5-inch models (which currently top out at 6TB) are significantly fatter than the Rapid, and 3.5-inch models (up to 36TB) are positively huge by comparison. VectoTech Rapid price Hang onto your hats–actually, your wallets, dear readers. While the Rapid is $129 for 2TB (not half bad!), $229 for 4TB (not bad either!), it’s $1,699 for 16TB. Yowser! Priced [er terabyte, that’s $64.50, $57.25, and $106.18, respectively. A hefty premium for having it all in one box. Those prices are almost exactly those of the bare V-MAX SATA 6Gbps SSD that’s inside, though that drive is also available in an $799 8TB version VectoTech Rapid performance Compared to an HDD, the VectoTech Rapid is very fast. Compared to even slow 10Gbps SSDs, that would be, not so much. Around 500MBps to 550MBps both reading and writing. But that’s sustained throughput and only part of the story. The VectoTech Rapid is an SSD, and even SATA SSDs have fast seek times, up to a thousand times quicker than HDDs. Again, it was SATA that freed computers from deadly slow boot and load times, not NVMe. While not 10Gbps/NVMe -like, 500MBps is far faster than a hard drive. While I didn’t have other drives to chart the Rapid against, I did send it through PCWorld’s suite of tests. As SSD rated the seeks as between 0.04 and 0.7 milliseconds. Hard drives are generally anywhere from 10 to 12 milliseconds. AmorphousDiskMark rated the Rapid as right around the speed of a fast internal SATA III SSD. I had no other external SATA SSDs to compare the Rapid simply because they’re exceedingly rare these days. But while I didn’t create charts, note that in the case of SATA, real-world transfers are very close to what you see in the three synthetic benchmarks. It’s only when you get to NVMe that the operating systems can’t keep up. Alas, while there are remedies for slothful operating system transfers in Windows, I’ve yet to find any for macOS. That said, there’s a clone of an early version clone for macOS of the FastCopy utility discussed in the article linked above. It’s called RapidCopy and is available in the App Store. Alas, in my tests on my M4 Max Studio, it didn’t offer any significant improvement over Finder. Your experience may vary. ATTO has basically the same option of the VectoTech Rapid 16TB’s performance. Note that I tested only the 16TB version of the Rapid so I can’t vouch for the speed of the lower capacity models of the drive. It’s quite likely the same or ballpark, but run a couple of benchmarks upon purchase of one of the lower capacity SKUs to make sure. Should you buy the VectoTech Rapid? Capacity being your main concern, the 16TB Rapid is the only way to get that much storage in a single external SSD, SATA or no. At least in such a svelte form factor. I can’t say 100 percent yes because of the price, but, if the convenience and capacity outweigh monetary factors for you, by all means go for the 16TB. For smaller capacities, I’d opt for one of the faster, like-priced or cheaper alternatives.

Smart Answers: our upgraded GenAI tool gives you more detail about the info you need from Macworld
Macworld Today Macworld has launched a major update to Smart Answers. When you ask the tool a question, you will now get a longer, more-detailed and better-structured answer that really helps you get the most from our in-depth journalism. What is Smart Answers Smart Answers is a chatbot tool that helps you get more from our content. It’s built using Generative AI and content written by our human editors. The way we interact with content is changing. It wasn’t so long ago you would have sifted through a printed magazine for advice on the latest consumer technology, yet it felt like a revolution when those old mags switched over to digital- and online editions. These days, everything you could ever want to read is on the internet – or more likely watch on YouTube or TikTok. The difficulty comes in finding trustworthy, up-to-date information that precisely and immediately answers your question, and most of us tend to rely on search engines and algorithms to figure that out for us, with varying degrees of success. But faced with a page full of links to visually similar content, you’re still a step away from the information you need – two, in fact, if you need to further refine your query. Smart Answers is our new reader service that turns content discovery on its head. You control the questions, the answers, and the delivery. It’s like having a Macworld editor at your beck and call, allowing you to request and receive specific content on demand. So why wait for the content to find you? Try Smart Answers We’ve worked in partnership with Miso.ai to develop Smart Answers, a GenAI tool (see What is GenAI?) that draws only on Foundry‘s complete catalog of English-language content (written by humans) to answer your natural-language questions. You’ll not only benefit from the expert knowledge of Macworld editors, but those of PCWorld, Tech Advisor and TechHive too, collectively covering the entire consumer technology sphere. Smart Answers is fast and efficient, which means you don’t have to scroll through pages of information to find what you need. You can ask it anything, from what is the best Apple Watch for diving to which printer should you buy for your home office, or even when is the next iPhone coming out or how do you speed up your Mac. You’ll get an answer in seconds. It’s like having a Macworld editor at your beck and call… why wait for the content to find you? Ask it a follow-up question too, if you like, or browse the recommended reading for more detail on the topic. Smart Answers is clever enough to work out what you may want to ask next, and it will even show you the best pricing for related products and services to avoid you having to search it out yourself. Smart Answers has been trained on the type of tech-related questions our readers are likely to ask. Ask it a silly or irrelevant question and you’ll either get a silly or irrelevant answer or no answer at all. Our priority is to ensure Smart Answers is able to adequately respond to questions on the topics we do cover. Though Smart Answers is intrinsically linked to our editorial content, our editorial function stands independently. No article published on this site has been created using GenAI. Extensive testing has been conducted by our editors over the two years since we first launched Smart Answers in August 2025, with our feedback used to retrain the model. We wouldn’t be rolling this upgrade out today if we were not confident that the answers it provides are as trustworthy as if they had come direct from our editorial team. This cycle of testing, feedback, and retraining is ongoing and will be important as we continue to add functionality to Smart Answers – and this is just the start of a process that will ultimately put you in charge of your own content experience across Foundry-owned sites. Of course, the real testing comes from you. We’ll be analyzing all search data collected by Smart Answers, and cross-checking the quality of responses, but we’d also love to hear your feedback. You can get in touch with our Director of Content Operations Marie Black or Director of Product and Data Neil Bennett over email. FAQ 1. How does Smart Answers work? Smart Answers is based on a GenAI platform, built by our partner Miso.ai. Unlike ChatGPT, Google Bard and other GenAI tools that source their information from all over the web, Smart Answers has been trained only on content written by Foundry journalists. It responds to queries posed in natural language with a summarized answer and links to related information. 2. What is GenAI? Short for Generative AI, GenAI is a type of artificial intelligence that is able to mimic the neural networks of the human brain and, through machine learning of existing content, generate entirely new content in the form of text, images, video and audio. When given a prompt, such as a piece of natural-language text, the computational power of GenAI allows it to deliver an answer much faster than can the human brain. 3. Can I trust Smart Answers? Yes. Smart Answers provides answers based on articles written by Foundry journalists and does not use data from any external sources, which could be unreliable or subject to copyright concerns. Extensive testing has gone on behind the scenes to help train the model, so we are satisfied that it is able to provide reliable information. We’ve also worked hard with partner Miso.ai to eliminate ‘hallucinations’ – these are misleading or wholly incorrect answers that may be given when the answer is not known or the data required to answer the question is incomplete. If Smart Answers is unable to answer your question, it will tell you so. 4. Is Smart Answers a threat to our editorial team? Absolutely not. Smart Answers cannot exist without the expert content written by Foundry journalists. Its ability to stay useful and relevant is entirely dependent on it being able to learn from their content, and thus it is not the first step in some evil plan to replace our team of editors and cut costs. Smart Answers is a supplementary service for our readers, designed to aid content discovery and enhance the user experience. Though we will make revenue from any adverts displayed on the page and earn commission on links to purchase some products and services, Smart Answers also costs us money to develop and run. 5. Is Smart Answers being used to create editorial content on Macworld? No. Editorial articles feed into Smart Answers, but Smart Answers is not used for the creation of editorial articles. In the future we may use query data for article or FAQ topic suggestions. 6. What data is Smart Answers collecting? We are recording queries submitted via Smart Answers to help us understand in what information our readers are interested. Smart Answers also collects anonymized user data that allows us to better understand the interests and intent of readers visiting Foundry websites. Learn more about Foundry’s Privacy Policy, and Miso.ai’s Privacy Policy.

Apple Arcade in November: Three new games come to the service this month
Macworld Gaming subscription services are all the rage now, but Apple Arcade isn’t a little different from the likes of PlayStation Plus, EA Play, or Xbox Game Pass. If you’ve got questions about it, we’ve got plenty of answers. Updated November 6, 2025: There are three new games on the service this month: MySims, MySims Kingdom, and Toca Boca Jr. Classics. What is Apple Arcade? Apple Arcade is a gaming subscription service for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and AppleTV that features several hundred games. The games are a mix of genres and styles, and include original games you’ll only find on the service and others that can be found on the regular App Store or even other platforms. Apple Arcade isn’t a streaming service like Xbox Live Cloud Gaming or GeForce NOW. Games must be downloaded onto your device in order to be played. What do I need to run it? Apple Arcade was made available as part of iOS 13, iPad OS 13, tvOS 13, and macOS Catalina or later. Some of the more visually-intensive games may only run well on newer hardware, though, and some Mac games require macOS 11 (Big Sur). How much does Apple Arcade cost? Apple Arcade costs $6.99/£6.99 per month, and you’ll also get a one-month free trial or you can get three months free if you purchase a new iPhone, iPad, Apple TV or Mac. To claim your free trial click here. You can get Apple Arcade for less than $6.99 a month if you subscribe for a year upfront. A year of Apple Arcade is $49.99/£49.99 (so $4.16 a month). If you’re currently on the $6.99 month-to-month plan and want to switch to the annual plan and save some money, you can do so on your iPhone or iPad. Open the App Store app, then tap your account icon in the upper right. Tap Subscriptions, then tap the entry for Apple Arcade. Here, you can switch to the annual plan. Apple Arcade is also included in the Apple One subscription bundles, which range from $20 a month to $38 a month and include access to Apple Music and Apple TV and iCloud storage. There is also a month free trial of Apple One. To claim the trial, or sign up for Apple One, click here. How do I sign up for Apple Arcade? There isn’t an Apple Arcade app—it’s built into the App Store. On your iPhone, iPad, or Mac open the App Store and look for the Apple Arcade tab at the bottom of the screen (or in the left column on macOS). A sign-up screen with a Try It Free button will appear. After the trial you’ll be charged either the monthly or annual fee, depending on your selection. When subscribing, you’ll need to enter your Apple ID password or use Touch ID or Face ID to sign in, and you’ll have to confirm your subscription purchase a few times. Once you’re done with the sign up, the Arcade section of the App Store shows what games are available to you. To access a game, tap on it in the App Store, then tap the Get button. When the game is done installing on your device, the Get button turns into a Play button, and you can tap it to launch the game. The game app icon will also appear on your device’s Home page. On the Apple TV, there actually is an Arcade app. Open that to see the sign-up offer. You’ll also find an Arcade tab within the App Store. Does my subscription include family sharing? Yes. One $6.99 per month subscription can be shared between up to six people (including you). How do I cancel Apple Arcade? First off, keep in mind that if you cancel Apple Arcade (either before your free trial is up or after subscribing), you won’t be able to keep playing the games unless you re-subscribe. If you’re okay with that, you can use the same process you use to cancel any other subscription service. Here’s the easiest way to do it on the iPhone and iPad: Open the App Store app and tap on your profile photo in the upper right. In the screen that pops up, press Subscriptions near the top of the page. You’ll then see a list of active subscriptions, and Apple Arcade should be listed there. Tap it. You’ll either see Cancel Free Trial or Cancel Subscription toward the middle of the page that appears. Tap whatever option is available, then Confirm Cancellation. And here’s how to cancel Apple Arcade on the Mac: Open the App Store app and then press the icon with your profile photo in the lower left. The Account window will appear, and you should then click View Information at the top of the window. Enter your password when/if prompted. When your Account Information appears, scroll down to the Manage section and click the Manage link to the right of Subscriptions. When the list of your active subscriptions appears, click Edit to the right of Apple Arcade. Toward the middle of the page that appears, you’ll see a button that says either Cancel Free Trial or Cancel Subscription. Click it, then click Confirm Cancellation and Confirm. Do Apple Arcade games have in-app purchases? No. In Apple’s words, “since every game includes access to the full experience, including all game features, content, and future updates, no additional purchases will be required.” Even games that have in-app purchases on the App Store won’t have any in Apple Arcade. Do Apple Arcade games have ads? Also no. On a related note, Apple says Apple Arcade has no ad tracking. Is Apple Arcade a game streaming service like GeForce NOW or Xbox Game Streaming? No. All Apple Arcade are downloaded. Are there demos for Apple Arcade games? No, and they’re not really necessary. Like App Store apps, games download quickly and can easily be removed if you don’t want to keep it anymore. Apple partly envisions Apple Arcade as a way of letting players try out games with more freedom than the App Store currently allows (which is basically none). In Apple’s words, “rather than pay upfront for each game, a subscription to Apple Arcade will give players the opportunity to try any game in the service without risk.” The service has a free trial, though, as we’ve seen with other Apple subscription services. Am I able to keep playing Apple Arcade games if I cancel my subscription? No. As with most subscription services, you only have access while you’re a subscriber. Can I use controllers with Apple Arcade games? Yes. In additional to traditional MFi (Made for iOS) controllers, you can pair some specific Bluetooth controllers for either PlayStation or Xbox with either your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. Since many Apple Arcade games are playable on Mac and Apple TV (where controller support is more common), many games will support them. Some games, especially those that are also available in the broader App Store and only for iPhone or iPad, have no controller support. Recently Apple relaxed the requirements for MFi controller certification, which may have grown out of the Apple Arcade negotiations. How often are new games released? Games are typically released on the first Friday of each month. There are some rare exceptions. What games have been released so far? There are over 200 games available for Apple Arcade, and the list grows all the time.
