While Apple offers the iPad itself in a choice of four colours, the Magic Keyboard for it is only available in white. That’s what prompted Brydge to launch its latest lineup …

While Apple has long used privacy as a selling point for both its hardware and services, I do wonder whether it now regrets introducing one privacy measure: App Tracking Transparency (ATT).

For something with rather limited scope, it sometimes feels like scarcely a month goes by without a new antitrust lawsuit or regulator challenging it. A third ATT lawsuit is being brought in the UK – this one with a twist.

It basically gives you the Apple Watch GymKit workout tracking experience, just without the watch. This could be useful in a lot of scenarios.
