iOS 16 brings new widgets for the lock screen, revamped notifications and more. With iOS 16 update, the lock screen will look different and will become ...

Now by using the Fitness app users can track and meet fitness goals even if they don’t have an Apple Watch by setting daily move goals via Fitness app. Users will also be notified if they forgot to add an attachment in their email along with ‘Remind Later’ and ‘Follow up’ suggestions. AdvertisementSimilar to Gmail, scheduling for email is coming to the Mail app on iOS 16. The lock screen notification can be scrolled up from the bottom of the screen, making it easier to tap and access with one hand. Messages in iOS 16 is getting a massive update. There are template options that will let users choose different accent colours and font styles along with widgets that can be accessed without unlocking the iPhone.

One of the more interesting ones is the option to quickly set up a new device for your child. If you start planning a trip with the Maps app on your Mac, you'll be able to share that to your iPhone. With iOS 16 you'll be able to edit messages you already sent in the Messages app, and you get new tools to personalize your iPhone with like the ability to customize the way your lock screen looks and new privacy features for those in abusive relationships. So you could have one lock screen set for when your Work Focus is enabled and another for workouts. Sometimes you get a bunch of notifications in a row from one app, like as the score of a basketball game updates. When you touch a photo's subject like the dog in the image above, you can lift it away from the background and add it to apps like Messages. Essentially it's a tap and hold tool that removes a photo's background. Sometimes notifications can cover up your lock screen's photo, so iOS 16 moves notifications to the bottom of your display. The widgets are akin to complications on the Apple Watch lock screen. Press and hold to edit your lock screen: You can swipe to try out the several different styles. Each style changes the color filter for the background photo and the font on the lock screen so everything compliments each other. So if you notice a typo after a message, you'll be able to edit the message after the fact. Next -- and this might be my favorite new Messages feature -- you can immediately recall a sent message.

Apple on Monday provided a peek at upcoming tweaks to the software that powers more than 1 billion iPhones and rolled out two laptops that will be the first ...

Other tools will enable more apps to run side by side to perform multiple tasks on the same screen. The new software also will enable the lock screen to display live notifications, such as the status of a Uber ride on its way to pick up a passenger. One of iOS 16′se most noticeable differences will occur on the iPhone lock screen.

Wi-Fi password sharing has long been automatic and easy on iOS as long as the person who is trying to connect to your network also has an iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

You need to authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode to see a stored password, and then you get an option to copy it. Even though your phone is connected to the network, you still have to search around for the Wi-Fi password at the back of the router or on that old crusty piece of paper where you shouldn’t be storing passwords anyway. Apple is finally adding the ability to see your stored Wi-Fi password in iOS 16.

Apple users will be able to edit and even recall recently sent messages when the next version of its iPhone software is released later this year, the company has announced.

Open sales are believed to start around next year's WWDC.

After the headset is finalized, Kuo predicts a media launch event in January 2023 with developer toolkit units shipping 2-4 weeks after said event. One of the rumors heading into the event was that Apple might give us a sneak peak at its mixed reality headset but that did not pan out. All these dates are still far away at this point so we'll just have to wait and see if they actually hold up.

Laptops will have to comply with the legislation within 40 months of it entering into force. "By autumn 2024, USB Type-C will become the common charging port for all mobile phones, tablets and cameras in the EU," the European Parliament said in a statement. Apple will have to change the connector on iPhones sold in Europe by 2024 after EU countries and politicians agreed today to a single mobile charging port for mobile phones, tablets and cameras in a world first.

One feature, as well as one device, was nowhere to be seen, though: Apple's rumored mixed reality glasses and the accompanying realityOS (again, a rumored name) ...

At Mashable, we hoped for a tease of some sort up till the very end, but Apple CEO Tim Cook decided to skip the " one more thing" this year. More recently, we've started hearing about realityOS, the operating system powering a new generation of Apple products focused on virtual/augmented/mixed reality, including the upcoming headset. Instead, the upcoming VR glasses would be a niche product with a very high price, well outside of what most people would pay for such a gadget.

The plan would force all companies to make phones, tablets, e-readers, and digital cameras compatible with USB-C chargers by 2024.

Phones and tablet makers will have to comply by the autumn of 2024. Current Apple laptop models already use the USB-C charger. But the company is currently testing future iPhone models that replace the current Lightning charging port with the more prevalent USB-C connector.

The company warned that forcing it to adopt a universal charger would "stifle innovation" as well create "an unprecedented volume of electronic waste" and inconvenience millions of people. The company warned that forcing it to adopt a universal charger would "stifle innovation" as well create "an unprecedented volume of electronic waste" and inconvenience millions of people. Old chargers generate an estimated 51,000 tonnes of electronic waste per year and the EU believes a "one size fits all" approach would make customers' lives easier and help the environment.

A Galway County Council decision last year to allow an extension to the planning permission granted to Apple to build a data centre on lands in Athenry Co ...

But at that point the timeframe for Apple to submit a new application for an extension of the duration of the original planning permission had expired. The following September, Galway County Council gave permission for it to proceed subject to conditions, but that decision was subsequently appealed to An Bord Pleanála. They also argued that the council’s decision last year was made under legislation that didn’t allow for the applicant or the public to engage or make submissions on an application for an extension of duration of planning permission. The objectors had argued that the council had failed to assess the implications of extending the permission which it was obliged to under EU law. A Galway County Council decision last year to allow an extension to the planning permission granted to Apple to build a data centre on lands in Athenry Co Galway has been quashed by the High Court. That permission was due to expire in September of last year and so Apple, which at that time was still seeking a buyer for the site, applied to the council for a five-year extension.

That means it might not be available on the regular iPhone 14. On the watch, you can look down and see the time, temperature, and certain applications, like maps, even when the screen isn't fully on, or brightened. Apple has been resistant to adding that option, perhaps to instead focus on longer battery life.

"By autumn 2024, USB Type-C will become the common charging port for all mobile phones, tablets and cameras in the EU," the European Parliament said in a statement. Apple will have to bow to a new EU directive and change the charging port on its iPhone to fall in line with a new directive set out by the EU. The directive from the European Commission comes after more than a decade of trying to introduce such a measure, which was met with strong resistance from Apple. All Apple iPhones sold in Europe from 2024 will have to comply with an EU law that will result in a standard charging port for all mobile phones, cameras and tablets.

Widgets, introduced in iOS 15 for the home screen, will now be available on the lock screen.
