The European Union is proposing to ban under 13 year olds from using social media apps, with a plan for “phased and gradual access” for teenagers.

While most social media apps claim to have a minimum age of 13, this is extremely poorly enforced. The EU proposal would give this the force of law, as well as applying restrictions for older teens …

We’ve talked on a number of occasions about the problem with USB-C cables: namely, they all look alike but can have very different capabilities.

Google addressed this issue in Chrome OS several years ago, and we suggested at the time that Apple should copy it. That hasn’t yet happened, but there’s now a free Mac app, WhatCable, to turn your Mac into a hardware cable tester …

According to the latest Power On newsletter from Mark Gurman, Apple is preparing to include up to 1.5TB of RAM in the upcoming M7 Ultra chip. This’ll mean Apple Silicon will finally match the highest RAM configuration available on the highest end 2019 Intel Mac Pro.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says that Apple is developing a new lineup of Apple Pencil stylus accessories, set for launch next year alongside new iPad Pro models in spring 2027.

This would mean new generations of Apple Pencil (USB-C) and the wireless-charging Apple Pencil Pro. Bloomberg suggests that these new stylus could feature new battery systems, which would make them more easily user-replaceable in order to comply with upcoming EU regulation.

Every year, Apple has a ‘Back to School’ promo for students – offering some kind of special incentive if they buy a Mac or iPad during the promotional window. Typically, this has come in the form of free accessories (like AirPods), or a $100-150 Apple gift card. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the offer should be returning later this week.

Last year, Apple completely reinvented multitasking on the iPad, with the introduction of windowing in iPadOS 26. At first, this meant the removal of the simpler version of multitasking, Split View and Slide Over. Those features did eventually return, but at a cost – they required you to use the clunky new windowing system. I was hoping iPadOS 27 would improve this, but it didn’t.

Each time we buy a phone, we have to decide which storage tier to go for, and that requires a judgment call – not just about how much storage we need today, but how much we are likely to need for however long we end up keeping the phone. 

There are times when we’ll get this wrong, but fortunately there’s a simple solution to your storage woes: the SANDISK® Phone Drive for iPhone.

I have a very standard plan when a batch of Apple laptops reaches the end of its lease or deployment lifecycle. I want them gone ASAP. Typically, by the time a MacBook Air or Pro hits that four-year mark, it is old, unusable, and ready to be recycled. I don’t want to see them in my office, and I certainly don’t want to support them. I want them recycled, but the M1 MacBook Air has completely broken that rule, and in a world where Macs are going up in price, it matters.

Intel in the U.S. is expected to make at least some upcoming Mac and iPhone chips for Apple. That recent development may have been the key to a major tariff exemption on semiconductors Apple received almost a year ago.

OpenAI has issued a formal statement in response to Apple’s lawsuit accusing the company of trade secret theft. Read it below.

Meta AI joined the image generation space this week. However, it did so with a controversial default setting that users found upsetting.

Apple has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI today, accusing the company of trade secret theft. Specifically, Apple alleges that its former employees have stolen trade secrets “for the benefit of OpenAI.”

“This case is about Apple’s former employees stealing Apple’s trade secrets for the benefit of OpenAI. Apple brings this suit to put a stop to it,” the lawsuit says.

Apple is among eight U.S. companies now able to bring covered advanced-computing chips, servers, and other controlled technology into the UAE without applying for individual export licenses. Here’s what that means.

My top feature for a smart lock for any Apple smart home person is Apple Home Key support. The ability to tap your iPhone or Apple Watch against your front door and walk right inside is incredibly convenient. The problem is that most locks that support this feature are expensive, often costing $ 200 or more. That is where the LNDU HK01W comes in at a nice spot. It brings native Apple Home Key support to a door for right around $100.

Speaking of AI-powered browser capabilities on the Mac, Anthropic is highlighting Claude Code’s in-app browser on the desktop today.

Spotify announced today a series of updates to Release Radar, giving listeners more control over the music recommendations they receive every Friday. Here are the details.

Apple Watch is losing its Walkie-Talkie app in this fall’s watchOS 27 software update. Will you miss the Apple Watch push-to-talk functionality?

I think if we are honest with ourselves, most of us would admit that smart home tech falls into one of two categories. First, there is the genuinely useful. Second, there’s the stuff we do just because we can, and it is to some degree cool.

I think I’ve now discovered a third category: things that really aren’t worth all of the time and effort they take …

Joining the Amazon Anker summer sale loaded with MagSafe gear, chargers, and accessories from $8, as well as the ongoing AirPods 4 deal at nearly 25% off, we have some additional deals to scope out today as well. This Apple Watch Ultra 3 model is nearly $140 off, here are the M5 MacBook Air configs you can score at $150 off the new list prices, a giant $150 off the latest Bose SoundLink Max Bluetooth Speaker, and a rare deal on Logitech’s latest haptics-enabled MX Master 4 Mouse. All of that and more await below in today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break. 

If you were to just look at the Messages app in iOS 27, you might not think much has changed, but that is far from the truth. Under the hood, Apple has completely revamped the Messages experience, making it faster, smarter, and much less frustrating. From simple little setting toggles for dictation or voice memos to the amazing Siri integrations, the Messages app has gotten much more capable in every way. I wanted to share some of my favorite features that are both quality-of-life features and features I am still wowed by. Here are four of the best features that iOS 27 brought to the Messages app.

OpenAI is pulling the plug on its dedicated web browser, ChatGPT Atlas. Instead of investing in an AI browser with a small user base, the company is improving agentic web use features inside the new ChatGPT desktop app.

While ChatGPT Atlas may not have gained much traction, AI browsers can be useful for automating tasks like research, browser tidiness, and more. Here are options available on the Mac.

For years, bullish supporters have heralded passkeys as the future of sign-on, while traditional passwords are seen as the way of the past. It’s praised as a frictionless, far more secure alternative. But this week, I used normal passwords to authenticate more times than I can count.

Don’t get me wrong, the adoption of passkeys has been impressive. More on that soon. However, I can’t help but reflect on the current state of sign-on and how lesser is still largely dominant in the wake of far better technology.

GymKit has been one of Apple Watch’s smartest fitness features since it launched in 2017. Tap your watch to compatible gym equipment, and Apple Watch shares your heart rate while the machine sends back metrics like distance, incline, pace, and calories.

With iOS 27, Apple is expanding that idea beyond Apple Watch. I tested the new GymKit on iPhone and AirPods Pro 3 experience with a GymKit-compatible treadmill. It basically gives you the Apple Watch GymKit workout tracking experience, just without the watch. This could be useful in a lot of scenarios.

I have used plenty of docking stations over the years, and it seems the desktop dock market is as crowded as ever. I have tested smaller portable docks, to larger stationary docks that give you all the ports you would ever need. But the new iVANKY FusionDock takes a different approach. Instead of just adding more ports, this Thunderbolt 5 dock is built around sustained reliability even while under heavy professional workloads. It can support multiple high-resolution displays, fast SSDs, NAS transfers, and full MacBook Pro performance all running simultaneously. If you are a power user and you need a powerful dock to match your workflow, the FusionDock Ultra is worth considering. Here’s why.

Apple recently increased the prices of most of its products, from the Apple TV and HomePods through iPads and Macs to the Vision Pro. iPhones have so far escaped the increases, but that will likely change in September.
