Apple released the iOS 27 public beta today, and if you've been curious about the new software, now's the time to try it out. iOS 27 brings Siri AI, performance improvements, and lots of new Apple Intelligence features. With the public betas, you don't need to wait until September to see what's new.

Apple is adding a new warning about malicious iMessages in iOS 26.6, according to X user @limpless_skelly, who shared a mockup of the notification.
The pop-up will warn users that a message could be trying to harm their iPhone or compromise their privacy. Apple asks users to share the message so it can guard against future attacks, and there are "Not Now," "Share With Apple," and "Don't Report" options to tap. Not Now likely causes the pop-up to surface again at a later time.

I’m the solo developer behind Chessmate, an iPhone app I built because I kept forgetting the chess openings I studied.
I could watch an opening video and understand the moves, but I often went blank when the same position appeared in a game. Chessmate turns each opening into a series of positions where you have to find the next move. Important moves have short explanations, and positions you struggle with come back for review.
The part I’m still working on is the balance between explanation and practice. Too much text interrupts the session, but short explanations can leave out useful context.
The Airseekers Tron ... it's an odd one, for sure. There are a few things that I find irritating, but then it'll go and surprise me with some stuff it can do really well, where even "better" or "more expensive" robomowers tend to struggle. I ran the mower in my neighbors' pristine yard that has a few more obstacles than mine, as well as my yard, which couldn't possibly be any more straightforward.
In 2022, Apple began rolling out Tap to Pay on iPhone, a system that allows small business owners and other merchants to accept contactless payments on an iPhone, with no point-of-sale hardware required. The feature allows customers to pay by simply tapping their iPhone or Apple Watch, credit card or debit card, or other contactless payment option on the merchant's iPhone. Payment is securely completed using NFC, like Apple Pay.
Some of Apple's retail employees have been using iPhone 14 units with Tap to Pay on iPhone, instead of a B

Apple's M7 Ultra chip coming in 2028 is designed to support up to 1.5TB of unified memory, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. However, whether such a configuration is offered may depend on the state of the ongoing memory chip shortage.
In 2019, Apple released an Intel-based Mac Pro with up to 1.5TB RAM. This article,
It takes years to tape out a chip and bring it to market, with overall industry seismic shifts taking much less time. Nothing will demonstrate that better than the rumored six-month gap between the M6 processor debut and the AI-focused M7.
With no M6 Pro or M6 Max on the horizon, don't expect much from the Mac Studio.
We've been telling you this for years — Apple Car research wasn't lit on fire, and the fruits of Apple's labor on it will be seen in artificial intelligence performance in the M7 and M8 processor.

One more RSS reader — why not? Honestly, I built it for the reason I keep seeing other people give: there wasn't a reader that fit me properly, so I made one that adapts to the reader instead of the other way round.
Two things shaped it. The first is that it's iCloud-native: your feeds, folders and read state sync across iPhone, iPad and Mac with no account to create and no server of mine in the middle. Nothing about what you read leaves your devices — no ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics. The second is that almost everything is adjustable: themes including Sepia, a customisable article list (thumbnail size, favicon, unread dot, 0–6 preview lines), and a reading view where you pick the font and the text size.
The iPad Pro with M6 is expected in early 2027 and Apple may release upgraded Apple Pencil models with easier-to-replace batteries in time for new EU regulations.

Hey r/apple , I built Devly, a menu bar app with 60+ developer tools. A few weeks ago Apple invited me to WWDC, (best day ever btw) I got to sit down with some of their engineers, and I just shipped v2.1 with changes directly from those conversations.
It lives in your menu bar and has everything you reach for constantly: JSON formatter, Base64, regex tester, JWT decoder, color converter, Unix timestamp, UUID generator, QR code, cron parser, and a lot more. Everything runs locally, no tracking, no subscription.
Some new things in v2.1:
Liquid Glass UI on macOS 26
Quick Switch (⌘P) to jump to any tool instantly
URL scheme for terminal piping (devly://base64?input=hello)
I spent the last few months building a big v3 update for Birthday Buddy. This update represents everything I learned when I decided about a year ago that I wanted to learn more about software development.
My iOS and SwiftUI journey started with "Hacking with Swift" by Paul Hudson, followed by late nights and weekend debugging. Through a lot of trial and error, plus some help from my trusty AI assistant Claude, my app came into existence. Now with version 3 I basically reimagined the entire app and I'm quite proud of it.
Birthday Buddy is designed to be your complete birthday assistant.

I am the developer of Stamps. A private, fully-local, automatic travel tracker with no signup, no subscription, and no location tracking
Motivation: I've been an avid user of apps like Been and Flighty for years, but always found them lacking and sometimes frustrating. Most require you to create accounts, enable location tracking, and stay online, all while not delivering the level of granular trip tracking and route visualization that I feel like should've been possible. Stamps keeps everything local and automatic, focusing on the timeline and map experience those apps skimp on.

For many users, Apple’s own accessories are the first and last peripherals they get for their desktop computer. That’s understandable: you can buy a Magic Keyboard and/or Magic Mouse at the same time as your new Mac, and if you’re going second-hand, then many sellers bundle them in with the Mac they’re moving on. What’s more, Apple is a name that a lot of people trust.
The problem is that these accessories are often average at best and downright poor choices at worst. Sure, many of them can do the job, but you’d get a much better experience by looking elsewhere.
