To start the new year, Brett Burney and I begin this week's episode of the In the News podcast by discussing what we think will be the biggest Apple-related news of 2024: the Vision Pro headsets, new iPads, AI, and more. We also talk about the Double Tap feature of the Apple Watch Series 9, the new Clicks keyboard for the iPhone, using Shortcuts with the Action button on the iPhone 15 Pro, protecting your iPhone passcode, the fabulous Apple TV+ show Slow Horses, and more.
In our Where Y'At? segment, we discuss using crash detection on the iPhone, SOS on the Apple Watch, and Satellite Roadside Assistance on the iPhone to get assistance when you need it most.
In our In the Know segment, Brett explains why you might want to put a Shazam button on your iPhone Lock Screen, and I explain how you can add advanced filtering features to the Messages app and why it makes sense to do so.
By the way, my microphone settings were incorrect for the first segment of this episode of the podcast, but I fixed it after that. Sorry about the brief technical difficulties!
