iOS 18: How to make your app icons large and label-free
Macworld By this point, you probably have your iPhone Home screens arranged just the way you want. You know where your most important apps are by their page and position, and certainly don’t need the app’s name labeled underneath. Good news! With iOS 18 you can finally get rid of the app icon labels and expand your icons to fill in that extra space. If you want that “big icons, no labels” look, here’s how you do it. Big icons, no labels Tap-and-hold anywhere on your Home screen other than on an existing icon or widget. Just tap and hold on an empty space somewhere. After a second, your iPhone will enter the Home screen edit mode where the app icons wiggle and have a (-) button in the upper left. Tap Edit in the upper left corner of your Home screen, then tap Customize. A small interface will slide up from the bottom of the screen to give you control over the app icon size and color. Tapping Small (the default that you’ve had forever) and Large will toggle between icon sizes, so you can see how it looks. Large icons fit on the same grid as small icons, they just have a little less space between them and no icon labels. If you enable Large icons, it will be enabled everywhere; you’ll have large icons with no labels on all your Home screens, and in the App Library as well. You can still find apps by name using search (including the app list you get by tapping Search in the App Library). iOS

Microsoft’s AI stance would be laughable if it weren’t so bad | Macworld
Microsoft’s AI stance would be laughable if it weren’t so bad
Macworld It’s been a long while since we last did this but it’s once again time to have a chat with the Winotaur, the Macalope’s Microsoft counterpart! THE MACALOPE: Hey, man! Long time no see! THE WINOTAUR: How come you only call me when you think my team did something wrong? THE MACALOPE: Because… it’s more fun that way? THE WINOTAUR: Uh-huh. Typical. THE MACALOPE: OK, sure, I should have called you when Microsoft said it would work with unions while Apple has been running around trying to crush them. THE WINOTAUR: You should have! THE MACALOPE: And, the Macalope should congratulate you on becoming the most valuable company! Again. Apple and Microsoft have been going back and forth for a while now on that but the Macalope thinks Microsoft is on top right now. THE WINOTAUR: I dunno, what day is it? THE MACALOPE: Just checking here… yep, Microsoft, then Apple, then Nvidia. THE WINOTAUR: Pff. Nvidia. THE MACALOPE: Seriously. THE WINOTAUR: That’s a made-up name. THE MACALOPE: Right? But, look, that’s the past. THE WINOTAUR: It’s technically the present but… THE MACALOPE: Well, everything is AI now. THE WINOTAUR: Except for Siri, sure. THE MACALOPE: Uhhh, that’s a work in progress. Say, you still naming your digital assistant after a seemingly nude character from a video game? THE WINOTAUR: Uh, no, we stopped that. THE MACALOPE: Regardless, we gotta talk about this guy. This one particular guy. THE WINOTAUR: Not sure who you’re referring to. THE MACALOPE: The Macalope thinks you probably do. Now, we haven’t talked a lot recently because since Steve Ballmer left, Satya Nadella has been doing a pretty good job. THE WINOTAUR: Word. THE MACALOPE: Don’t… don’t say “word.” But this week… well, let me just pretend to look something up here again… THE WINOTAUR: It’s your column. Pad it however you like. They really pay you for this? THE MACALOPE: [shrugs] Okay, just gonna read this from The Verge… “Microsoft’s AI boss thinks it’s perfectly okay to steal content if it’s on the open web.” THE WINOTAUR: [nods] Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm. THE MACALOPE: That would be Mustafa Suleyman to put a name to the world-class wrongness. THE WINOTAUR: How is he wrong? THE MACALOPE: Really? You don’t see any problem with that? THE WINOTAUR: Open web, baby. What part of “open” are you not understanding? THE MACALOPE: The… copyrighted part? Let the Macalope just quote him… THE WINOTAUR: I forgot how grating you using the third person is. THE MACALOPE: “I think that with respect to content that’s already on the open web, the social contract of that content since the ‘90s has been that it is fair use. Anyone can copy it, recreate with it, reproduce with it.” That’s… that’s not how that works. THE WINOTAUR: You’re just sore because Apple’s so late to AI. THE MACALOPE: The Macalope can get his own glue and rock recipes, thanks. But is that your stance, too? That everything on the web is just there for the taking, as long as you’re a big company? IDG IDG IDG THE WINOTAUR: If I teach my kids to read using the open web, I don’t have to Venmo you some money! THE MACALOPE: Well, first of all, you should not teach your kids to read using the open web. Second, you don’t then go on to monetize your children, do you? THE WINOTAUR: I don’t have kids. Sounds like a lot of work and I’m more focused on my career. Also, it’s hard to meet the right partner when you live in a maze. THE MACALOPE: So sorry. Well, these companies are then turning around and selling the thing that was created off of copyrighted material as a product. If you print the “open web” and then try to sell it as a book, yeah, people can sue you for real money! In fact, surprise, that’s what a number of companies are doing, suing Microsoft and OpenAI for using their copyrighted material to train AIs. THE WINOTAUR: If you don’t want your site vacuumed up, just opt out via a robots.txt file. Easy peasy. THE MACALOPE: Maybe it would be if the AI companies were honoring that. Many of them, including Microsoft’s partner, OpenAI, are just ignoring it. THE WINOTAUR: Hey, people want AI. Everyone’s screaming for it. Gotta train it on something. THE MACALOPE: Objection. Assumes facts not in evidence. The thing is, you can get material, you just have to pay for it. THE WINOTAUR: We’d… rather not do that. THE MACALOPE: That’s kind of what I thought. THE WINOTAUR: I am still amazed you chose today to finally call me. THE MACALOPE: Me too! It’s always such a joy. iOS

The Vision Pro Will Get Apple Intelligence, 'Go Deeper' In-Store Demos
According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple plans to add its "Apple Intelligence" AI features to visionOS and update its approach to in-store demos of the headset. The Verge reports: The company is adding a new "Go Deeper" option to its in-store demos, Gurman writes. That reportedly includes testing office features and watching videos, as well as defaulting to the Dual Loop band that sends straps over the top and around the back of wearers' heads instead of the single-strap Solo Loop band, which some find uncomfortable. Apple will also reportedly let people view their own videos and photos, including panoramas, in the headset. Adding the sentimental touch to the demos could work out, especially once visionOS 2 comes out this fall, with its "spatialize" option to turn 2D photos into 3D ones -- a feature that's more impressive than it has the right to be (though still a little quirky with hair and glasses, like Apple's Portrait Mode feature).

iOS 18 Introduces More Charging Limit Options on iPhone 15 Models: 85%, 90%, and 95%
All four iPhone 15 models feature a setting that prevents the devices from charging beyond 80% while toggled on, which can potentially improve an iPhone battery's lifespan by reducing the time that the battery is fully charged. And with iOS 18, Apple has taken this feature a step further by adding new 85%, 90%, and 95% charging limit options. Screenshot: Aaron Perris The feature can be found in the Settings app under Battery → Charging. The charging limit feature remains exclusive to the iPhone 15 lineup on the first iOS 18 beta, with the option not found on the iPhone 14 Pro or older. The first iOS 18 beta is now available for Apple Developer Program members, and a public beta will follow in July. Following beta testing, the update should be widely released to all users with an iPhone XS or newer in September.Related Roundup: iOS 18This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

You Can Send Texts via Satellite in iOS 18
With iOS 18, Apple is expanding the Emergency SOS via satellite feature to introduce Messages via satellite, a feature that will let you send texts even when you don't have a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. Available on the iPhone 14 or later, you can send and receive iMessages or SMS messages using a satellite connection. The feature works with all iMessage features such as emoji and Tapbacks, plus with iMessage, conversations are end-to-end encrypted. Messages via satellite will work on the ‌iPhone 14‌ and later, aka the same devices that support Emergency SOS via satellite. Apple did not specify whether there will be a cost for Messages via satellite, but Emergency SOS via satellite is still free for all ‌iPhone 14‌ users for a total of three years. Apple has said it eventually plans to charge for satellite services, but no pricing has been unveiled.

RCS Coming to Messages in iOS 18 for Improved Texts With Android Users | MacRumors
RCS Coming to Messages in iOS 18 for Improved Texts With Android Users
Apple today confirmed that it plans to implement support for Rich Communication Services, or RCS, in iOS 18 this fall. Apple software chief Craig Federighi confirmed ‌RCS‌ support when introducing new features for the iPhone at the WWDC keynote event. We've known about Apple's plans to adopt ‌RCS‌ since last November, but Apple only gave a vague "later in 2024" timeline for adoption so it was unclear exactly when the feature might roll out. ‌RCS‌ replaces SMS/MMS as the default communication protocol on the ‌iPhone‌. ‌RCS‌ has already been adopted by Google, U.S. smartphone carriers, and other companies, so Apple is a little late to the party. It doesn't change much for iMessage, but it does overhaul the way iPhones interact with Android devices. ‌RCS‌ improves texting with Android users, adding support for features that have previously been limited to iMessage. Some of the additions: Support for higher resolution photos and videos. Support for larger file sizes and file sharing. Audio messages. Cross-platform emoji reactions. Real-time typing indicators. Read receipts. Ability to send messages over cellular or Wi-Fi (SMS is cellular only). There is no cost to send an ‌RCS‌ message over Wi-Fi. Improved group chats. It is not clear if Apple will introduce ‌RCS‌ support during the ‌iOS 18‌ beta testing period or hold the feature until the fall public launch of the update, but we do know that it is indeed tied to ‌iOS 18‌ at this point.

Passwords is also compatible with Windows via the ‌iCloud‌ for Windows app, extending its utility to users who operate across different platforms. The developer beta versions of ‌iOS 18‌, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia are available today with official release to the public scheduled for the fall, providing an early look at the Passwords app.Tag: iCloud KeychainThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Releases New AirPods Pro 2 Beta Firmware With Support for iOS 18 Features
Apple today released new beta firmware for the AirPods Pro 2, including both the Lightning and USB-C versions. The updated firmware has a build number of 7A5220e, and it is available to developers at the current time. At today's keynote event, Apple introduced several new features that are coming to the ‌AirPods Pro‌ 2 as part of iOS 18, including head gestures, and these features may be included in the firmware update. With head gestures, users can control Siri on the ‌AirPods Pro‌ with a shake or a nod of the head. If you get a phone call, for example, you can shake your head no if you don't want to answer it, or nod to accept the call. ‌Siri‌ interactions can be used for responding to incoming messages, calls, and notifications. Apple is adding Voice Isolation to the ‌AirPods Pro‌ to cut down on loud background sounds to make you easier to hear, and there is a new Personalized Spatial Audio feature specific to gaming. Game developers will be able to incorporate spatial audio into their games for a more immersive audio experience.Related Roundup: AirPods ProBuyer's Guide: AirPods Pro (Neutral)Related Forum: AirPodsThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Intelligence Features Coming to iOS 18 Beta Testers This Summer
At WWDC 2024, Apple introduced an onslaught of Apple Intelligence features that integrate AI into everything from Siri to built-in apps like Mail, Messages, and Photos. Apple Intelligence is still under development, and it won't immediately be available to developers. Apple plans to debut Apple Intelligence in the iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia betas this summer. When Apple Intelligence officially launches to the public this fall, it will be available in a beta capacity. Some of the Apple Intelligence additions might take even longer to launch, with Apple suggesting that "some features, additional languages, and platforms" will be coming over the course of the next year. With Apple Intelligence, ‌Siri‌ is much smarter, and there are tools for generating custom emoji and images, refining your writing, summarizing content, cutting down on unimportant notifications, and way more. Apple is also partnering with OpenAI to bring ChatGPT 4o to its platforms, with ChatGPT set to be integrated into ‌Siri‌ and Writing Tools. ‌Siri‌ will be able to tap into ChatGPT for some tasks, asking user permission to share information. Apple Intelligence is free to use, but it is limited to devices with the A17 Pro chip or any M-series chip. That means to use these features, you need an iPhone 15 Pro or an ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌ Max, but the upcoming iPhone 16 lineup will support Apple Intelligence too. On the Mac side, you need a Mac with an M1 or later, and for iPads, you need an iPad Pro or iPad Air with an ‌M1‌ chip or later.Related Roundups: iOS 18, macOS 15This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Releases First Betas of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, tvOS 18, watchOS 11, and visionOS 2 | MacRumors
Apple Releases First Betas of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, tvOS 18, watchOS 11, and visionOS 2
Following today's WWDC keynote event that saw the unveiling of new software, Apple has provided the first betas of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, tvOS 18, watchOS 11, and visionOS 2 to developers for testing purposes. Developers have access to the software so they can begin incorporating all of the new features into their apps. Registered developers are able to opt into the betas by opening up the Settings app on their device, going to the Software Update Section, tapping on the "Beta Updates" option, and toggling on the Developer Beta. Note that an Apple ID associated with a developer account is required to download and install the beta, but Apple allows even free developer accounts to install beta software. It is a bad idea to install early betas on a main device, and we recommend having a secondary device if you want to try out the software. There are often significant bugs in early versions of iOS and macOS, so if you do install on a main device, make sure to create a backup beforehand. Over the course of the next several months, Apple will refine the features available in all of its new software, and we will go through several betas before the updates see a public release around September. While the betas are limited to developers right now, Apple typically provides a public beta in July, which is usually much more stable than the early developer betas.Related Roundups: Apple TV, iOS 18, macOS 15, visionOS, watchOS 10Buyer's Guide: Apple TV (Caution)Related Forums: Apple TV and Home Theater, Apple Vision Pro, Apple WatchThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

'Apple Intelligence' Generative Personal AI Unveiled for iPhone, iPad, and Mac
Apple at WWDC today announced Apple Intelligence, a deeply integrated, personalized AI experience for Apple devices that uses cutting-edge generative artificial intelligence to enhance user experiences across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

The feature boasts deep natural language understanding, allowing it to power new writing tools that can be accessed system-wide across Apple platforms. Apple Intelligence allows you to rewrite or proofread text automatically across Mail, Notes, Safari, Pages, Keynote, and third-party apps.

At the heart of Apple Intelligence is Siri, which is now more natural, more contextually relevant, and more personal. The virtual assistant allows you to make corrections in real-time and maintains conversational context.Related Roundup: iOS 18Tag: WWDC 2024This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
