Apple has released a new version of App Store Connect for iPhone and iPad. The new version includes accessibility improvements, support for 11 new languages, and more.

As promised, Apple has released a new version of iOS 18 for all iPhone users. The update comes in response to the growing proliferation of a new exploit chain known as DarkSword.

Today’s update comes in the form of a new build of iOS 18.7.7 with build number 22H340 for all iPhone models.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has shared a memo with the company to mark its 50th anniversary. Naturally, Mark Gurman is first to share the company-wide communication outside of Apple.

April 1, 1976: 50 years ago, Apple was founded. 40 years later, to the date, I was a 25-year-old embarking on a health and fitness journey, and Apple was right at the core.

April 1, 2016: I started an Apple Watch workout streak that helped guide me to running. I’d never run in my life at 25, but I started closing rings on my watch with a used elliptical at home. By fall, I was running, and by New Year’s Day, I had lost 50 pounds.

April 1, 2017: I ran my first-ever 5K race. It was the “2017 Superintendent’s 5K Challenge: A Race for Education” in Miami, Florida. My 3.1-mile run time clocked in at 26 minutes 46 seconds with an 8-minute, 36-seconds pace per mile. I ranked 151 out of 2231 participants.

In 1994 Steve Jobs sat down with the Santa Clara Valley Historical Association for what I imagined they expected to be a simple interview. It was anything but. In a matter of a few minutes the Apple co-founder shared some of the most profound advice I have ever heard anyone in a position of power give.

Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Services and Health, will make a video podcast appearance this afternoon as part of Apple’s 50th anniversary.

It makes sense that Apple TV 4K customers are vocal about the lack of new hardware. The current set-top box, introduced in 2022, runs the risk of breaking a record no one wants to see happen.

As part of Apple’s 50th anniversary celebrations, Apple CEO Tim Cook sat down with Esquire for an in-depth conversation. In the interview, Cook discussed his memory of Steve Jobs, remarking that Apple is “definitely still his company.”

Cook also once again discussed his strategy for interacting with the Trump administration and politicians around the world.

It’s hard to put into words what Apple means to me. I know it’s odd to hear anyone say that a corporation “means” anything to them. But Apple’s not just a company, it’s an idea cooked up by two crazy ones in a garage 50 years ago.

It’s been a driving force in my life since I was conscious enough to know what a computer was. Apple taught me from a very young age to be curious not just about technology, but about everything.

Apple’s 50th birthday is also the official release date for one new Apple product: AirPods Max 2. Apple announced the new headphones in March before opening pre-orders and quoting deliveries on April 1. AirPods Max 2 can be purchased at Apple Store locations starting today as well.
