The latest update for your iPhone and iPad will make them safer than ever.

‎Sober Days Ahead is just a simple app to help you keep focus on how long you've been free from alcohol, though it would work for any addiction. No ads, no tracking, and no cost, because getting off the bottle is more important than me making a buck or two. Sobriety isn't easy, but you can do it.

It’s September, and you know what that means: shorter days, the first tentative tinge of chill in the night air, Halloween candy at the grocery store, and—most relevantly for us—a new version of iOS. Apple supports its own phones with new software updates for years longer than any of the Android phone makers do, but that doesn’t mean that using a new version of iOS on the oldest-supported hardware is always pleasant. For iOS 14, that hardware is the iPhone 6S and the original 4-inch iPhone SE, the same as it was for iOS 13.

Apple has baked even more security into iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 for iPhones and iPads to keep you and your data safe.

Apple has responded to Epic’s demands that the iPhone-maker restore Fortnite to the App Store in new legal filings, arguing that the company’s injuries are “entirely self-inflicted” and that Fortnite can return to iOS at any time — just as soon as Epic removes the custom in-app payment system that triggered the game’s removal in the first place.

Apple's official public release of iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 is finally set to drop on Wednesday, September 16, just a day after the company released the Golden Master to third-party developers. Also set to be made available to the general public for the first time are watchOS 7 and tvOS 14.

The coronavirus crisis may have been very bad news for the economy as a whole, but Apple says that the iOS app economy has been thriving, creating 300,000 new US jobs since April 2019 – and the pandemic boosting rather than hurting that progress.

Apple on Friday said it suspended Epic Games’ developer account. It follows a temporary restraining order on Monday evening, in which a judge ruled that Apple can block Fortnite but not Epic’s developer account. However, Apple said it terminated an Epic developer account that does not include the Unreal Engine that’s used by third-party developers to make 3D games, which keeps the move in line with the judge’s order.

YouTube appears to be testing Picture in Picture (PiP) mode for its iOS app, reports 9to5Mac. The feature allows users to watch YouTube videos while using other apps, and was discovered by developer Daniel Yount, who stumbled across it while viewing a YouTube live stream on his iPad.

An iOS 14 feature that has gone a bit under the radar is the Precise Location toggle for Location Services. This new toggle gives the user more control over which apps can access your current location, and to what granularity.

In iOS 14, Apple continues to build out its extensive accessibility features, and here we're going to show you how you can use the new Headphone Accommodations to amplify certain sounds if you're having difficulty hearing them.

A little bit early than expected, Apple has just released the first public beta of iOS 14. iOS 14 comes with tons of features and almost completely changes the appearance of your home screen. There are widgets on the home screen, for example, you can see little windows that show photos, the weather, music controls and much more. And it automatically organizes all of your apps for you. Moreover, Siri has a new look and doesn’t take over the entire mobile screen.

Apple opened iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 beta testing to the general public, allowing anyone to get a preview of the features coming to the iPhone and iPad later this fall. But as with any beta program, there will almost certainly be bugs and issues that have the potential to frustrate those who decide to install it. In fact, there are four reasons you shouldn't install it right now.

YOU ARE, WE hope, already protecting your phone with a PIN, a fingerprint, or a face (or all three), but sometimes you'll want to add an extra barrier to particular apps—if you're lending your phone to a friend, say, or if your kids or partner are always borrowing your phone for whatever reason.

Reddit says it’s releasing a fix for a piece of code that copied contents from users’ clipboards. Users in a beta version of iOS 14, which sends an alert when an app tries to copy clipboard information, reported receiving the alerts with each keystroke in Reddit’s iOS app.

Apple has made advancements to its Siri personal assistant in every version of iOS, but it’s still looks and acts nearly the same as it did back when it was introduced in iOS 5! Finally, with iOS 14, Siri is getting a much-needed redesign. Here’s what you can expect from Siri when you upgrade to iOS or iPadOS 14.

Facebook has begun rolling out Dark Mode support for its flagship iOS app, which comes just over a year after the Facebook Messenger app also gained ‌Dark Mode‌ support.

WWDC 2020 has concluded, and that means it's time to glean some insights from all the documentation, sessions, and other materials that Apple released. We're going to do this on a few topics in the coming weeks, but to start, we're looking at the new initiatives and features Apple has announced for game developers on the iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and macOS platforms.

In the Photos app, there's an option to use pinch gestures to zoom in to photos to see details up close, and in iOS 14, Apple lets you zoom in further than ever before. Zooming super far into iPhone photos doesn't always produce the clearest image, but it lets you inspect images more closely.
