Here comes the sun ... except for when it disappears for a few minutes. Brett and I start this week's episode of the In the News podcast by discussing the upcoming solar eclipse. Brett's house in Ohio is in the zone of totality, and I'll be traveling to the Dallas area to see the eclipse on April 8. And while that is a few weeks away, now is the time to make plans and get filters, such as a solar filter for the iPhone. In yesterday's post, I mentioned a Wirecutter recommendation for an iPhone filter that I will be trying out, and in the podcast, Brett and I also discuss Jamie Carter's good article on Space.com with tips for photographing a solar eclipse with a smartphone. Next, we discuss the Apple Vision Pro, what Apple has learned about who in the United States is exercising with an Apple Watch, the best options for premium streaming services on an Apple TV, and more.
In this week's Where Y'at? segment, we discuss the story of a man in England who left his keys on the dashboard of his SUV (d'oh!) but fortunately, he also had an AirTag in his vehicle.
Brett's tip of the week revolves around the Astronomy watch face for the Apple Watch. I share a tip for dealing with unexpected and unwanted widgets that start showing up on your iPhone or iPad.
