Se você é um usuário assíduo do Instagram, uma boa ideia talvez seja assinar o plano de assinatura Instagram Plus, que abre um leque de recursos extras as quais melhoram a sua experiência na rede.

Dentre as funções disponibilizadas com ela, está a possibilidade de pré-visualizar o conteúdo das mensagens que tiver recebido na área de conversas privadas do mensageiro, sem que elas sejam marcadas como lidas ou a outra pessoa saiba que você já leu.

Outra possibilidade é, em uma conversa, usar fontes personalizadas exclusivas de quem assina o Instagram Plus.

Veja como usar ambos os recursos! 😉

Como pré-visualizar uma mensagem sem que a outra pessoa saiba

  1. Para fazer isso, abra o aplicativo no seu iPhone e vá até a área de mensagens diretas.
  1. Mantenha o dedo pressionado por alguns segundos em cima da conversa para que a prévia seja exibida.

Como personalizar as fontes em uma conversa

  1. Dentro da conversa, toque no nome da pessoa (na parte superior).
  2. Vá até “Personalizar”.
  1. Depois de selecionar a aba “Fonte”, escolha uma das sete opções.
  2. Toque em “Aplicar” para salvar.

The hardest Bob's Burgers quiz of all time is here — but can you handle the grill heat and score more than 80%?

Fun fact: whenever I have days that I work remotely, I'll always have an episode of Bob's Burgers on in the background. In fact, I watch all 16 seasons of the hit Hulu and Disney+ animated comedy so often, that I could tell you exactly what episode was on without directly looking at it.

I felt incredibly prepared for the handful of Bob's Burgers quizzes already on the internet claiming to be the hardest, but nobody has yet been able to truly test the reams of random knowledge I've acquired from watching the series so often.

Should I be able to tell recite the lyrics to the song that plays over Tina and Tammy's first time collectively ditching class in season 2? Probably not.

So, behold — the genuinely most difficult Bob's Burgers quiz that I have played to date (because I made it). If you get more than 80%, I'll assume that you're actually a Wharf resident who's somehow found their way into the real world.

I have left out anything that happens in The Bob's Burgers Movie, but you'll need to have seen seasons 1-16 in order to answer all of the questions.

Check back when Bob's Burgers season 17 (hopefully) airs in early 2027... you know that the above will be updated accordingly.

Apple’s rumored security camera: Privacy-focused HomeKit device expected as part of broader smart home push

Apple has not officially announced any first-party security camera, but multiple reports from analysts and journalists indicate the company is developing one (and possibly related products like a video doorbell) to compete more directly with Amazon’s Ring and Google’s Nest. The effort forms part of a wider smart-home hardware expansion that also includes a home hub and updated speakers.

Core Rumors and Sources

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported in late 2024 that Apple was preparing a wireless smart home IP camera for mass production in 2026, with ambitions for millions of units annually and assembly by Goertek. The device is described as designed for tight wireless integration with other Apple products and expected to leverage Siri and Apple Intelligence.

Bloomberg News’ Mark Gurman has repeatedly covered Apple’s smart-home plans, stating the company is working on multiple types of cameras and home-security products. One reported design is a battery-powered camera lasting several months to a year on a charge. It would include facial recognition and infrared sensors to identify people in a room, supporting automation such as turning lights off when someone leaves or playing preferred music for a recognized family member. Users are expected to place cameras throughout the home for both security and presence-based automation.

A Face ID-equipped video doorbell has also been rumored; it could recognize residents and wirelessly unlock a compatible deadbolt. Reports suggest the doorbell may lag behind the primary security camera in development.

Internal code references to a device codenamed J229 (mentioned in late 2025 reporting) describe capabilities including image capture, alarm-sound detection, and multiple sensors (features obviously consistent with a security camera). Some coverage linked support for it to a spring 2026 software window, though timelines have since been described as more fluid.

Expected Features and Ecosystem Fit

Any Apple camera would almost certainly rely on HomeKit Secure Video, which already provides end-to-end encrypted streaming and recording to iCloud+ (with local analysis on a home hub such as a HomePod or Apple TV). Apple has recently expanded the platform: iOS 27 and related software add 4K support for compatible cameras, AI-generated text descriptions of footage, natural-language search across clips (e.g., “package delivery”), and grouping of noteworthy events across multiple cameras. These AI features reportedly require a higher-tier (2 TB) iCloud+ plan.

An official Apple camera would be expected to offer deeper, native integration than third-party options—potentially stronger on-device intelligence, seamless Siri/Apple Intelligence features, and privacy guarantees aligned with Apple’s usual approach (encrypted video that even Apple cannot access). Specifics on resolution, night vision, field of view, indoor vs. outdoor designs, or exact form factor remain unconfirmed.

Timing and Status

Early reports pointed toward 2026 availability, with some speculation around a spring window or a March 2026 “Apple Experience” event. More recent coverage (as of mid-2026) treats the latter half of 2026 or later as the more realistic window, noting that earlier expectations have slipped and that no official confirmation, pricing, detailed specs, or prototypes have been made public.

Apple already supports a limited selection of third-party HomeKit Secure Video cameras (from brands such as Eve, Aqara, Logitech, and others). A first-party device would give the company direct hardware control and a clearer path to showcase new Home app and Apple Intelligence capabilities.

MacDailyNews Take: Credible info from Kuo, Gurman, and others consistently points to Apple developing at least one battery-powered, privacy-oriented security camera with facial/presence sensing for automation, plus possible related products such as a Face ID doorbell. Everything remains unannounced and speculative on exact design, price, and launch date as of late July 2026. Further clarity will depend on official statements or stronger supply-chain evidence.

Apple brings AppleCare One to the UK, streamlining coverage

27 July 2026 at 19:00
Apple brings AppleCare One to the UK, giving customers a new way to cover multiple Apple products with one simple plan.
Apple brings AppleCare One to the UK, giving customers a new way to cover multiple Apple products with one simple plan.

Apple on Monday announced AppleCare One — a new way for customers to protect multiple Apple devices under one simple plan — is available in the UK. Starting at £16.99 per month, AppleCare One covers up to three products, with the flexibility to add more at any time for £4.99 per month per device.

With AppleCare One, customers receive comprehensive, one-stop service and support from Apple experts across every product in their plan — delivering affordable peace of mind. Beginning August 4th, customers in the UK can sign up for AppleCare One at apple.com or their nearest Apple Store. Those who already have an AppleCare+ plan can also sign up directly on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

“At Apple, we’re focused on creating and delivering exceptional experiences,” said Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, in a statement. “With AppleCare One, customers in the UK can now enjoy the trusted protection of AppleCare+ in a way that’s simpler and more flexible than ever before — one plan, one price, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing all their eligible products can be covered.”

One Plan, Incredible Value

AppleCare One includes all the benefits of AppleCare+, including fast and unlimited repairs for accidental damage, battery replacement service, and 24/7 priority access to Apple experts. All repairs are performed using genuine Apple parts at Apple Store locations and the vast network of Apple Authorised Service Providers.

Customers can enroll their eligible Apple products in the plan for the same great price, meaning a customer protecting their iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch together can save up to £11.48 per month compared to maintaining separate AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss plans for each device.

Protect Already-Owned Eligible Devices

AppleCare One gives customers greater flexibility to protect the devices they already have. Eligible products that are up to four years old can be added to a plan, provided they are in good condition, opening up coverage well beyond the current 60-day window to purchase AppleCare+.

Coverage That Evolves with Users

AppleCare One is built to keep pace with customers’ changing needs. When customers upgrade by trading in a covered product and purchasing a new product directly from Apple, the old product is automatically removed from the plan and replaced with the new device — so customers never have to think twice about staying protected. And as a monthly subscription, AppleCare One makes it simple to maintain coverage across as many products as customers want, for as long as they want, with the ability to add or remove devices from their plan at any time.

AppleCare+ Plans Add Theft and Loss Coverage for iPad and Apple Watch

Alongside the launch of AppleCare One, Apple is also bringing AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss to iPad and Apple Watch in the UK. The single-device plan option is now available for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, protecting customers against up to two incidents of theft or loss per year on top of battery replacement service, priority support from Apple experts, and unlimited repairs for accidental damage.
