Philips Hue customers will soon have a new way to control lighting around the home. Signify will add a new brightness feature through an update to the Philips Hue app. Users will also have access to expanded automation tools.

Steve Troughton-Smith’s streamlined internet radio streamer, Broadcasts, is the latest app to join the list of software that supports SharePlay.

For the uninitiated, Broadcasts is a simple app that lets you easily save and stream internet radio stations from all over the world.

A 29-year-old Cincinnati woman named Kimmie Watkins is crediting her Apple Watch for saving her life after it helped doctors discover a life-threatening blood clot in her lungs.

Dark Mode on iPhone, iPad, and Mac is fairly flexible. You can toggle it on or off from Control Center or Settings, automatically switch based on time of day, or use local sunrise and sunset time to switch.

There’s one method for invoking dark mode that’s still missing, however, and watchOS 10 on the Apple Watch Ultra shows how it could work.

I’m always surprised when I see people using weather apps packed with ads. The Apple Weather app has gone from good to great over the last decade.

It remains the best free weather app that has no chance of being acquired and turned off. Sure, Apple acquired and turned off Dark Sky, but precipitation alerts live on in Apple Weather.

“Anyone else feel like it’s getting hot in here?” That’s what Reddit CEO Steve Huffman would ask if he was remotely aware of the dumpster fire that he continues to fuel around the community he helped build. Instead, the former cofounder and current tyrant has a new plan of attack: Cross him and you’re fired… from moderating… for free… for years.

Say what you will about the expansion limits of the first Apple silicon Mac Pro, but there’s no denying that Apple designed one helluva machine. While the M2 Ultra Mac Pro is virtually identical to the last Intel Xeon Mac Pro, MacGeneration has captured what it’s like to unbox the most expensive Mac in the lineup.

Apple Watch saves lives, and it’s not just by making SOS calls and detecting heart conditions. Sometimes the Apple Watch motivates someone in just the right way to change their life through a months-long fitness journey.

Benjamin and Chance talk all things Apple Vision Pro, from hardware design to its features to its real-world appeal.

Apple’s first-ever 15-inch MacBook Air has new charger options compared to the 13-inch version. We already took a look inside Apple’s new 70W GaN USB-C today.

The new fast and compact USB-C charger isn’t just speedier than the 67W power adapter, it’s also smaller by a fairly significant amount. GaN, short for gallium nitride, is just so good for making fast chargers a reasonable size.

Apple Watch Ultra is Apple’s biggest watch in all dimensions. That’s what helps Apple Watch Ultra have up to 36-hour battery life compared to 18 hours on other Apple Watches.

Yet something surprised me recently when I shared my thoughts on the possibility of an Apple Watch Ultra 2 this year.

The first-ever Apple silicon-powered Mac Pro is having a weird moment, and it only just launched.

If you ever connect a MacBook to an external display, there’s one display setting that you should know about. I must admit that I used a MacBook with a secondary monitor for years before I realized how primary displays work.

Apple Watch Ultra and M2 iPad Pros aren’t cheap, but Best Buy still wants your money. To make Apple’s top-of-the-line hardware more affordable, Best Buy is expanding its Upgrade Plus leasing program to include both products.

Last Friday, we polled readers to ask how many planned to buy Vision Pro now that the product is real. Naturally, the 9to5Mac audience includes a few early adopters, so all 100% of you signed a legally binding document committing to give Apple $3500 before January 1, 2024. Okay, the results aren’t that skewed, and they may actually surprise you.

Stephen Hackett knows a thing or two about Apple history. For the last couple years, making great wall calendars has become a new skill set for the Relay FM cofounder.

The International Day of Yoga takes place on June 21 this year, and Apple is marking the occasion with a special Yoga Day Challenge for Apple Watch users.

Reddit CEO u/spez is back from a trip to the landfill with a fresh supply of trash to burn in the company’s ongoing garage fire.

When Vision Pro launches next year, it will be able to run iPhone and iPad apps out of the box. Despite being loaded with cameras, Apple explains that Vision Pro won’t actually expose these cameras to third-party apps that otherwise request access on iPhone and iPad.

One new feature in iOS 17 is the ability to start formatting a document in Notes then opening it in Pages for even more formatting capabilities. Apple released Pages, Keynote, and Numbers 13.1 today, and release notes specifically call out the iOS 17 feature.
