Podcast episode 104: Apple’s iLaptop, Near-Field Focus, and Becoming a HomeKit WiZ

In this week’s edition of the In the News podcast, Brett and I celebrate his birthday by discussing technology that we both love. We start with the iPad, which continues to gain the ability to perform even more sophisticated tasks. We then discuss how NFC is not a new technology but it is getting a new lease on life thanks to Apple. We provide tips for using the built-in Notes app, discuss Fitness circles on the Apple Watch, smart home technology, the upcoming Apple Vision Pro, and more.

In this week’s Where Y’at? segment, we discuss a woman who broke her leg while hiking but fortunately was airlifted to safety by helicopter thanks to her iPhone 14’s Emergency SOS via Satellite feature.

In our In the Know segment, Brett talks about sleep tracking on an Apple Watch. I provide tips for cleaning up your home screens on your iPhone or iPad by focusing on just your most important apps.
