New size, faster chips, and more storage – that’s just a little of what you can expect from Apple’s new iPad Pro line-up, unveiled during WWDC. In addition to upgrading its 12.9in iPad Pro (which originally launched in 2015), Apple released a new 10.5in model that replaces the 9.7in version (which launched in 2016). We spent some hands-on time with the latest iPad Pro after the WWDC keynote. Price 10.5in iPad Pro: £649/£749: 64GB/64GB + Cellular, £709/£839: 256GB/256GB + Cellular £889/£1,019: 512GB/512GB + Cellular 12.9in iPad Pro: £769/£899: 64GB/64GB + Cellular £859/£989: 256GB/256GB + Cellular £1,039/£1,169: 512GB/512GB + Cellular Colours The 10.5in iPad Pro comes in Silver, Space Gray, Gold, and Rose Gold.

The Apple Watch might still feel like a new product, but its already on the fourth version of watchOS. And each one has brought some pretty major changes. Version 2 brought nightstand mode and third-party complications, and version 3 introduced the dock, a new Breathe app, and better overall navigation. However, watchOS 4, unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference keynote in San Jose, is more of a maintenance release than a full new version. Still, it brings some cool new ways to interact with our favourite apps and add a little fun to the screen we see the most. Here’s everything we know so far about watchOS 4, including a few new features that we can’t wait to try. Compatible devices Apple Watch is a new enough product so no…

Children love iPhones and iPads. They love to look at them, they love to tap and swipe the screen, they love playing iPhone games, and most of all, they love watching videos on them. Giving your little ones a hand-me-down iOS device is an easy way to satisfy their desire for a screen of their own – my daughter is the proud owner of an iPhone 3GS and a third-generation iPad. That said, you shouldn’t hand over your old iPhone or iPad without doing some kid-proofing first. Read on for five ways to prep an aging iPhone or iPad for your youngster, from wiping your data and setting up a child’s iCloud account to blocking web access and keeping her from racking up in-app charges on your credit card. 1.…

If you’re like most iOS users, you have lots of apps. It’s all too tempting and all too easy to buy new ones (or download free ones) from the App Store. As a result, you probably have a number of games, productivity apps, and utilities on your iPhone or iPad that you’ve hardly ever used and aren’t likely to use in the future. But if you keep doing that, those apps will start to crowd your iOS device (and your iTunes library), taking up space and requiring frequent updates. That’s why it’s a good idea to periodically get rid of the apps you don’t use anymore. (You can always download them again from the App Store if you change your mind.) Culling your apps library can make managing your app…

In the movie The Princess Bride, after a series of exciting events, sword master Inigo Montoya is asked to explain what has happened since the film’s hero was rendered unconscious. “Let me explain,” he says. “No, there is too much – let me sum up.” When it comes to explaining the WWDC 2017 keynote, I feel a lot like Inigo Montoya. This was a packed two-plus hours that would probably run threeplus hours in the Director’s Cut edition. There were enough Easter eggs in the ‘additional features’ slides to render the Easter Bunny catatonic. There’s a lot to process, and we’ll be processing it for the next few days – maybe even all summer. But in the meantime, here are a few big-picture takeaways from Apple’s presentation. Apple walks the…

Siri in iOS 11 has learned to sound like an actual human – and that’s just the beginning when it comes to the new mobile operating system for iPhones and iPads. Apple CEO Tim Cook and friends gave us a full overview of iOS 11 during Apple’s WWDC keynote. New features include sweeping new upgrades to Siri, a redesigned Control Center and App Store, and a brand-new Apple Pay feature that lets you send or receive money to your contacts via iMessage. In addition, developers can now create apps that tap into your iOS device’s potential to create augmented reality experiences via the new ARKit. Plus, there are new productivity features for the iPad, including drag-and-drop capability and a new Mac-style Dock. Compatible devices • iPhone 7/Plus • iPhone 6s/Plus…

Once a year, at WWDC, Apple unveils its latest major update to the iOS software on iPads and iPhones, which will be launched to the public in autumn. But before then, they will be available for a limited time to the select few: the beta testers. Developer beta First, you’ll need to join the beta programme. You can register as an Apple developer and join the iOS Developer Program at tinyurl.com/732huk3. It costs £99 per year and you can enrol using your Apple ID. Before you start, back up the device you’re going to install the beta on. That way you can restore it if something goes seriously wrong. Alternatively, if you are lucky enough to have a second handset, use that. Sign into the iOS Dev Center (tinyurl.com/L4wvz8t )…

Surfing the web on a public Wi-Fi can be dangerous business, opening your iPhone or iPad up to spying eyes. To avoid that, you could use a VPN to stay private and anonymous. A VPN also hides your location online, which can allow you to access blocked content and blocked sites such as US Netflix when you are in the UK or BBC iPlayer when you are abroad. Here we talk you through the best iOS VPN options. It’s important to note that it is against Netflix, BBC iPlayer and other blocked content’s terms and conditions to access them using a VPN, so proceed with caution as you risk getting your account blocked. PureVPN Price: From £2.30 per month at fave.co/2pYjebX Our pick of the best VPN for iPad or…

If you have lots of apps, you probably have a number of games, productivity apps, and utilities that you’ve hardly ever used and aren’t likely to use in the future. But what happens if you accidentally delete one? If you use Spotlight to find the app (swipe down, enter its name), you’ll see next to the results what folder it’s in. Check that folder. If that doesn’t work uninstall and reinstall the app, which will delete all associated data. Use Settings > General > Storage & iCloud Usage > Storage to find the app, tap it, and then you can tap Delete App. (If you sync with iTunes, you can also delete via iTunes.) Many apps sync via the cloud, so hopefully the app is one of those.…

One of the words I use a lot when reviewing Apple products is opinionated. I believe that great art or design can’t happen without a point of view – and the more you depart from a focused point of view, the more likely a creation will be compromised, workmanlike... good, maybe, but not great. When it’s at its best, Apple strives for greatness. It doesn’t always get there – and every now and then you get the sense it’s not actually trying to get there – but when things are hitting on all cylinders, Apple releases products that are backed by a strong point of view about what will delight and serve its customers. The MacBook, for example, is a product based on a focused vision: That a single port…

Apple used its WWDC keynote to give us a sneak peek of an all-new product: the HomePod. Originally rumoured to be called Siri Speaker, the HomePod is a smart speaker with Wi-Fi capabilities intended to compete against Amazon Echo devices and Google Home – although it will be significantly more expensive. During the keynote, Apple’s senior VP of marketing Phil Schiller boasted about the HomePod’s audio quality, its built-in room sensors, and the integration with Apple Music. With its always-on voice assistant and ability to control connected devices, the HomePod is very similar to Echo devices and Google Home, but with a few notable differences. Here are the must-know HomePod features, specifications, and sales information showcased during WWDC. Release date The HomePod will be available for sale starting in December,…

When Apple released Swift Playgrounds in 2016, it opened the world of coding to kids (and adults) who thought just the idea of creating an app was intimidating. Swift Playgrounds makes codes approachable and fun to learn, combining tutorials, a touch interface, and ‘challenges’ on an iPad that anyone can use for free. While Swift Playgrounds can be a very satisfying experience that results in your very own app, technology moves forward – we’re now in a world where drones and robots are prevalent. With that in mind, Apple announced Swift Playgrounds version 1.5 at WWDC, which includes tools that teach students how to control drones and robots over Bluetooth using an iPad. The new program gives teachers access to Swift Playgrounds curriculum that works with a number of robots…

Siri or Google Assistant? Well, that depends on how you plan to use your iPhone’s voice assistant. While Google has made great strides in artificial intelligence, Siri has the perks of being seamlessly integrated into iOS, like waking it up by long-pressing the Home button or hands free by calling out “Hey Siri”. We tested Google Assistant and Siri by asking them to tap into third-party services and to conduct some complex web searches. “Turn off Siri” Winner: Siri Here’s where Siri’s home-field advantage comes in. Using Siri, you can change a lot of the iPhone’s basic functions and settings. For example, Siri can turn Wi-Fi on or off. And if you ask her to “take a selfie”, Siri will launch the camera app and automatically switch it to the…

Reader Nelis van Nahuijs has a fascinating question about switching – not from or to an Apple platform, but from a Mac to an iPad. My daily use is reading several digital newspapers, listening to music from my iTunes Library, watching television, and reading books in iBooks. I write rather often in Pages and Scrivener. Occasionally, I watch movies and series in Netflix. But the fly in the ointment is their extensive music library, which currently resides on an external drive, and they still purchase and rip CDs to add to it. I’ve been puzzling through this, and it seems like a computer will still be needed to prep and upload music files, though not to listen to them – as long as you don’t choose iCloud Music Library to…

Deleting hundred of images on your iPhone by tapping individual pictures is tedious. Thankfully there is a solution. Plug your iPhone into your Mac using the included syncing cable and launch Image Capture. This is a handy utility for grabbing images from connected devices (including scanners, cameras, and iOS devices). Select your iPhone in Image Capture’s Devices column. Below, choose a destination for your imported images from the Import To pop-up menu – your choices are the Pictures, Movies, Desktop, and Documents folders as well as iPhoto, Aperture, Preview, and Mail. Select Other and you can choose any folder you like. To import your photos click the Import All button at the bottom right of the window. This will import all the images in your iPhone’s Camera Roll. When you’ve…
