It’s time to retire the idea that “MDM is all you need.” We are past that with Apple in the enterprise. What we need now is a shift in mindset. Pushing configuration profiles and deploying apps to the Mac is just a piece of a larger puzzle to making Apple the best endpoint in the enterprise.

Apple uses two different forms of encryption for your iCloud data – a strong form for particularly sensitive data like the Health and Journal apps, but a weaker one for a lot of other data you still wouldn’t want falling into the wrong hands.

Fortunately the company gives you the option of switching to strong encryption for all your iCloud data, and while there are a few steps involved, it’s a worthwhile security and privacy safeguard …

Five years after Apple stops selling a product, it may become ‘vintage’, meaning Apple will still repair it. Five years after that, it can become ‘obsolete,’ and Apple no longer offers hardware service or parts. Today’s that day for the Apple Watch Series 1. Here’s what that means

Local weather is one of the most underrated variables in Homekit automation. Over the past few years, I’ve used sensors for everything from knowing when to drip faucets in freezing weather to adjusting the sprinkler schedule with the Eve Aqua on hot days. The Eve Weather has been part of my setup for a while now, and with its 2024 Matter upgrade from last summer, it’s now even more useful across more platforms.

iPadOS 26 is packed full of productivity upgrades, including a new windowing system that lets you use far more apps at once than before. And that newfound ability has made an overlooked ‘More Space’ setting significantly more useful.
