Apple has announced that Sir Jony Ive, the company’s Chief Design Officer, is leaving the tech giant. Ive will be forming his own design business, of which Apple will be a client. “After nearly 30 years and countless projects, I am most proud of the lasting work we have done to create a design team, process and culture at Apple that is without peer,” Ive said in a statement released by Apple. “Today it is stronger, more vibrant and more talented than at any point in Apple’s history.” Leading Apple’s design teams now are Evans Hankey, vice president of Industrial Design, and Alan Dye, vice president of Human Interface Design. Both will report to Apple COO Jeff Williams. “Jony is a singular figure in the design world and his role…

As we reported on page 4, Apple has announced that design chief Jony Ive is departing as an employee of Apple after almost 30 years with the company, during which he spearheaded the design for iconic products ranging from the iMac to the iPhone. It doesn’t appear to have been a hostile departure, as Apple’s official press release states that Ive is forming an independent design company which will count Apple among its primary clients. Technically we’re not yet looking at a totally Jony Ive-free Apple, but it’s easy to get the impression that we might as well be. No longer will Ive be one of the main wizards behind Apple’s curtains. As parody account @JonyIveParody shows, Ive tends to be Apple’s public face more than Apple CEO Tim Cook…

Apple has now officially begun its public beta test of iOS 13. The beta is expected to last until the public release in September, with updates every week or two. We caution you not to install the beta on a critical device – it is often full of bugs and rife with issues like poor battery life. That’s what a beta is for, after all: finding and fixing bugs. Back up your device Before you install any new OS update, and especially before you install a beta, it’s very important to make sure your device is backed up. Apple has a step-by-step guide to backing up your iPhone or iPad at fave. co/2LP2OiU We suggest performing an iTunes backup and creating an encrypted backup. That will ensure that your Health…

Joining a new Wi-Fi network is a task we do surprisingly often. At coffee shops or restaurants, at friends or neighbour’s houses, on flights... given how common it is, it’s sort of surprising that Apple waited until iOS 13 to make the task easier. Instead of opening the Settings app and Wi-Fi menu, you can now join Wi-Fi networks right from the control panel, which means you don’t even have to leave the app you’re in. It’s really simple, here’s how it works. 1. Open Control Centre (Swipe down from the upper-right corner on an iPhone with no Home button. Swipe up from the bottom on an iPhone with a Home button.) 2. Tap and hold, or 3D touch, on the wireless connections block in the upper right. 3. When…

Since the iPad was introduced in 2010, users have endured the same Safari experience they knew from the iPhone, which fuelled jabs that Apple’s tablet was little more than a gigantic version of the iPhone. Interfaces for commonly used sites like WordPress wouldn’t load properly. Google Docs forced you to a dedicated app that lacked features of both the desktop and mobile versions. Sometimes you simply couldn’t see key interface elements that you’d get on the desktop version of a site. Apple has finally given us a Safari browsing experience that makes it easier to take the iPad seriously as a laptop alternative or replacement. When iPadOS drops sometime this fall, here are some of the treats you can expect. Desktop-class browsing All the other changes essentially build off this…

The HomePod is enjoying a resurgence now that Apple has cut the price by £40, and I suspect a lot of you are wondering what you can do with Apple’s essentially buttonless smart speaker. Let’s get this out of the way: no, it still doesn’t do as many things as your average Alexa-powered speaker. It can, however, do a lot more than it could do at launch thanks to a couple of big patches Apple rolled out last year – though many features aren’t obvious. Follow the tips below, and you’ll find that HomePod can feel like a member of the family, after all. A quick note: you’ll need to set up Personal Requests to use some of these features. Once you’ve set up your HomePod, open the Home app…

Fresh on the heels of the release of the public betas for iOS 13, iPadOS, and macOS Catalina, Apple has updated both the iOS and macOS versions of its iWork apps: Keynote, Pages, and Numbers. Each app comes with its own bag of goodies, but each one now comes with better options for editing lists, charts, and tables – including the ability to create customized bullets. All three apps also let you stylize your text with new outline styles or by filling in the letters with gradients or your own images. In addition, the updates include a ‘face detection’ feature that intelligently positions subjects in photos when you place those photos in placeholders or objects. Pages Pages for Mac and iOS are basically the same, but the iOS version includes…

Dark Mode. Privacy enhancements. All-new Maps. There are lots of big new features in iOS 13 to get excited about, but we’re just as excited about the little things: small touches, quality of life improvements, and little features that make our daily interactions with our iPhones more joyful. As we kick the tyres of the iOS 13 beta, we’re discovering all sorts of cool little features that didn’t make the stage for iOS 13’s WWDC debut. Here’s a list of some of our favourite hidden gems buried just out of sight in iOS 13. 1. Silence unknown callers If you head to the Settings app, then tap on Phone, you’ll see a new toggle for Silence Unknown Callers. When this is enabled, iOS uses Siri intelligence to allow calls…

One of iOS 13’s most highly anticipated changes is also one of its simplest. The latest version of Apple’s mobile operating system finally introduces a Dark Mode for your iPhone and iPad’s interface, much as last year’s macOS Mojave finally bought a Dark Mode to Apple’s desktop OS. Once it’s on, formerly white interface elements of iOS change to black (or a deep slate grey), and the text shifts to a brighter colour for better legibility. That means that many Apple apps (such as Mail and Music) will now put less of a strain on your eyes at night, and there’s a small chance that Dark Mode will even improve your battery life. And, of course, it just looks cool. Apple will tell you about Dark Mode with a fresh…

Apple didn’t announce any new versions of the Apple Pencil hardware at this year’s WWDC, but it did announce some substantial improvements to how we’ll use it. The stylish stylus only took up a few minutes of Apple’s iPadOS presentation, but those moments were enough to demonstrate that Apple’s transforming it into more of a necessity than a novelty. Apple is taking care to show that the Pencil isn’t just a tool for artists. Indeed, the WWDC presentation spent more time showing how we might use it in an office environment – in other words, more like a pen and legal pad. Here’s what you can expect when iPadOS drops later in the year. Better latency, better writing experience The Apple Pencil already has a very good latency of 20ms,…

Here’s a truth we’ve had to endure for the iPad’s entire lifespan until now: the bigger the iPad, the bigger the frustration of typing on the screen when you’re holding the tablet like a clipboard. One hand had to hold up the iPad, leaving the index finger of your other hand to hunt and peck its way across the QuickType keyboard on the expansive screen. It certainly didn’t help that the normal keyboard is simply bad for presentation because it obscures around a fourth of the screen. Apple originally attempted to solve this problem by letting you split the keyboard in two halves, but Apple is removing that feature with iPadOS. That’s because iPadOS introduces a better option: now there’s a floating iPhone-sized keyboard that can freely move to any…

Maybe I’m using it wrong, but when I finally got to install the iPadOS Public Beta on my iPad Air 2, it wasn’t the revelatory tablet experience I was hoping for. It didn’t open my eyes to what the iPad could be or give me any indication that I could use it as my primary computer. Quite frankly, it didn’t feel any less or more like the iPad than was running iOS 12 the day before. I’m not even really sure why Apple felt the need to change the name. Most likely it’s mainly for marketing purposes – especially since my iPad still informs me that iOS 13 is up to date in the Settings – but a new name generally implies major changes, which iPadOS doesn’t really deliver. Yes,…

Less than 10 years after Steve Jobs passed away, Apple is faced with another difficult transition. Sir Jony Ive, Apple’s design guru since the days of the Newton MessagePad, has announced that he will be leaving the tech giant as an employee to form an independent design company, of which Apple will be a client. While he’s not leaving altogether, his departure from Apple Park will leave an indelible mark on the company, not unlike the iPhone, iPad, and iMacs he leaves behind. Here are 10 of Jony Ive’s most daring designs. 1. eMate 3000 Back before the Blueberry iBook was a thing, Jony Ive designed a super-portable laptop with a curvy design, translucent case, and clamshell cover called the eMate 3000. Aimed at the education market, it was…

The iOS 13 public beta is out now, and it look like a smorgasbord of all the things we ever wanted. Dark Mode. Siri support for music apps. Better video editing. Overhauled Maps. A swiping keyboard. Smaller downloads. It’s really tempting to pop over to beta.apple.com and jump on the beta bandwagon. (For more on how to install the beta, and how to uninstall it, read our guide on page 50.) But you might want to pump the breaks a bit. Running beta software has sometimes serious consequences, and not all the wonderful features of iOS 13 are even available yet in the beta. To help you decide if you should participate in the iOS 13 or iPadOS public beta, we prepared this short guide. Three beta OS principles No…

Spam calls can be a nuisance. Fortunately, iOS 13 brings with it a feature that can help combat this nuisance, and it’s easy to enable and disable. Turn on Silence Unknown Callers First, open Settings. Then tap on Phone. Scroll down to the section labelled ‘Call Silencing and Blocked Callers’ and look for the toggle switch Silence Unknown Callers. Turn that on, and you’re good to go. What this does With this feature enabled, your iPhone will use ‘Siri intelligence’ to determine whether a call is from a known number or not. If a phone number is found in your Contacts, Messages, or Mail, it comes through as usual. If it’s not found there, whether it’s a real phone number or an unlisted number, it will go straight to voice…

A vocal number of heavy-duty iPad users have begged for mouse support on the iPad for years, and that support is finally coming with iPadOS this autumn. A little surprisingly, iOS 13 also brings mouse support to the iPhone. It’s not so surprising, though, that Apple chose to bury it deep within the iPhone and iPad’s Accessibility settings. And when you do hook up a mouse through a Bluetooth or wired connection, you’ll still have to deal with an ugly circular cursor that’s meant to mimic a human fingerprint and a few interface complications. We’re glad the feature’s here, but it doesn’t quite work the way we’d hoped. (It is, after all, designed as an Accessibility feature.) But with that out of the way, let’s jump in. Set up a…

The Apple Watch is a marvel of miniaturization and can do so much. It’s no wonder it’s the most popular watch in the world. But the tiny display and simple controls don’t leave a lot of room for tutorials and explainers. Many of the best, most useful features and controls for the Apple Watch are, not exactly hidden, but at least hard to discover. 1. Take screenshots Want to brag about that epic workout session or high score in an Apple Watch game? Taking a screenshot on your Apple Watch is simple. Just press and hold the side button and tap the digital crown (you can usually trigger it by simply tapping both buttons at once, which is easier since they’re on the same side of the watch). Your…
