Apple has released the first iOS 27.2 developer beta for iPhone. The update follows the release of iOS 27 to everyone on Monday. It also leaps over iOS 27.1, which Apple has shown as an iPhone Duo-focused release.

Anthropic announced today that Claude Cowork is being merged with chat. This means Claude will drop from three to two modes: Claude Chat and Claude Code.

AppZapper is one of the first Mac apps I bought when I switched from PC to Mac in 2009. Coming from Windows, OS X lacked an obvious solution for thoroughly uninstalling software.

The answer, of course, is dragging an app from the Applications folder to the Trash. But what about all the extra cruft that apps leave behind? AppZapper handled it.

This week, the app returned from a long hiatus to introduce a brand-new version of “the uninstaller Apple forgot” with AppZapper 3000.

Apple Watch includes an all-new Siri app in watchOS 27. Unlike the iPhone and iPad versions, it’s a bit less intuitive to use in one way.

watchOS 27 removes a useful multitasking shortcut from Apple Watch. While we don’t know if it will make a return, we at least now know why the gesture was removed.

Apple Watch is gaining an all-new health-related app called Readiness. Here’s what you need to know about Apple’s new fitness-focused Readiness app.

XChat, X’s standalone messaging app for iPhone and iPad, is currently unavailable on the App Store.

iOS 27 is officially here. After a summer of beta testing, the free software update has arrived for everyone. It brings Siri AI, new Apple Intelligence features, more control over Liquid Glass, and improvements throughout the system. Here’s what’s new, which iPhones support it, and how to update.

Things is back with a nice new update after just a few weeks. The excellent project management app from Cultured Code is releasing support for iOS 27, macOS 27, and Apple’s other OS 27 updates coming out today. This includes Siri AI integration, a new widget size, and more.

Apple Watch Series 12 is a major upgrade to the core health and fitness tracking wearable. That’s because of the new Health Sensing System that includes an even more capable heart rate monitor.

The new hardware doesn’t just extend to more accurate health data. There’s a big change to a small complication that I’m seeing in Apple’s marketing material. It’s just one thing I’m excited about with the new Series 12 and Ultra 4 models.

Apple’s new iPhone 18 Pro cases and other accessories are now available in Apple Stores. Pre-orders for the new phones start tomorrow ahead of the launch in one week.

Following the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo announcement this week, Apple has started accepting iPhone Air and iPhone 17 trade-ins for credit. However, the iPhone Air offer is a bit of a sore spot, especially after this week’s price increases.

Look, no offense to Apple Vision Pro. I’m sure Apple Vision Pro is a very nice person. But iPhone Duo and Apple Vision Pro are not the same.

There’s a take that the iPhone Duo may have the Apple Vision Pro problem. The idea is that due to its price and device-specific software, it may be a miss and not a hit. The two things are not the same.

When iPhone Duo arrives next month, many third-party apps might not work as well as Apple’s built-in apps. There’s a reason for that, at least initially, though the situation should improve over time.

Snap is launching a new mobile app feature called Snapchat Plans. While it may sound like a new subscription service, Plans is actually a set of features that encourages hanging out in person.
