Welcome to this issue of iPad & iPhone User. This month, the big news in the world of Apple (and we mean big) is the launch of the iPad Pro. It’s the device that many of us have been waiting for, and as Tim Cook argues on page 13, it could see many of us opting to buy the king-size tablet instead of a new laptop. A point of view that is echoed by our columnist Steve Aquino on page 80. If you’re still unsure, then we answer all your iPad Pro questions on page 14, while illustrator Pete Fowler puts the tablet through its paces. We also round up the best cases for your iPhone, while our top tips will help you get more from Apple’s handset. Plus, we…

With specs to rival even some Macs, the iPad Pro has the potential to become a serious productivity machine. Here’s our guide to Apple’s king-size tablet, the most powerful iOS device ever. The basics When and where will I be able to get it? It’s available to buy now from Apple.com/uk, Apple Stores, and select carriers and authorized resellers. How much does it cost? The most powerful iPad has a price tag to match. iPad Pro starts at £679 for the 32GB model with Wi-Fi, goes up to £799 for the 128GB model with Wi-Fi, and costs £899 for the 128GB model with Wi-Fi and cellular capabilities. So there’s no 32GB cellular model? No. Not according to what Apple shared today. You must pony up for a 128GB iPad Pro…

1. Set a Live Photo as lock screen image One of the biggest features of the iPhone 6s is the camera, namely the introduction of ‘Live Photos’, still images that animate when activated via force touch. These Live Photos are meant to give you a glimpse of what was happening when the photo was taken – a fantastic feature when you want to take a trip down memory lane. However, many iPhone 6s and 6s Plus users are unaware that these live photos can be used as the lock screen image and animated at any time. To set a live photo as your lock screen image, simply open the Photos app and browse to the image you want to use. Once opened, tap the Share button (square with an arrow…

The iPhone is so much like a mobile computer that it can be easy to forget that it’s still a phone. And like all phones, your iPhone has a phone number. But what if you want to change your number? Here we’ll look at the number on your iPhone, how to access it, what it does, and how to go about changing the phone number on your iPhone. Find your iPhone’s phone number The rise of the mobile has gradually worn away at our ability to remember our phone numbers. Partly it’s because the numbers themselves are longer than the five-digit home numbers we used to have back in the 1990s; but more importantly it’s quite rare these days that you actually need to remember it. The Recents section of…

Apple has posted quarterly revenue of $51.5 billion and quarterly net profit of $11.1bn, which is $1.96 per diluted share. This compares to revenue of $49.6bn and profit of £10.7bn last quarter, and $42.123bn in revenue in the year ago quarter. This means revenues leapt by 22 per cent year-on-year, while profit was up 31 per cent. The results were for the quarter that began on 29 June and ended on 30 September. Apple’s financial year runs from September to September. The company has predicted that this quarter, it would see revenue of between $49- and $51bn, with gross margin between 38.5 percent and 39.5 percent. Those estimates actually caused some concern among investors because they are reasonably low for the fourth quarter, which led to a decline in share…

The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are here, and with a starting price of £539 we’re sure you’ll want to keep your new smartphone safe. Here, we’ve got great cases that’ll do just that. Some of the cases in this round-up were originally released with the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus in mind, but we’ve added a note to any that we’ve been able to confirm will work with the 6s. We think almost all iPhone 6 cases will be compatible, but there is a tiny difference in size so the tighter cases might be a bit of a squeeze for the new models. Apple iPhone 6s and 6s Plus cases Price: From £25 The first cases you’ll come across for the new iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are Apple’s…

Few things are more predictable than the iPhone upgrade schedule. Even before senior vice president of world wide marketing Phil Schiller and Apple’s senior vice president of software engineering Craig Federighi broke down everything new about the iPhone 6s toward the end of the company’s ‘Hey Siri’ event, we already knew what was coming – same design, new features. Ever since the iPhone 3GS, Apple has used the year following a major iPhone redesign to focus mostly on internal improvements – things like the battery, processor, and camera to breathe another 12 months of life into a familiar enclosure. It’s become so predictable that rumour sites have all but stopped publishing anything to the contrary. For as long as the iPhone remains at the centre of Apple’s universe, every model…

Apple CEO Tim Cook was busy making the media rounds in the week before the 12.9in iPad Pro, which the tech giant hopes will be a shot in the arm for its tablet sales. So why does he think Apple customers will want a Pro over, say, a 12- or 13in laptop? In an interview published The Daily Telegraph, Cook said the Pro will be all the computer that people could need. “I think if you’re looking at a PC, why would you buy a PC anymore? No really, why would you buy one?” the CEO explained. “Yes, the iPad Pro is a replacement for a notebook or a desktop for many, many people. They will start using it and conclude they no longer need to use anything else, other…
