In this week’s episode of the In the News podcast, Brett Burney and I discuss iOS 18.0: was the new design in Photos an improvement or a step backward? We discuss iOS 18.1: an initial Apple Intelligence feature is the ability to create summaries, but are they any good? We discuss iOS 18.1.1: why did Apple release this security update this week? And we discuss the upcoming iOS 18.2: do the guardrails on the Image Playground feature of Apple Intelligence make sense? We also discuss new features in the Overcast app that can improve your enjoyment of podcasts, enhancing dialogue on an Apple TV 4K, some amazing discounts on Amazon as we lead up to Black Friday, Shazam, Apple Music, and much more.
In our In the Know segment, Brett discusses how you can type to Siri and why you may want to do so. And I discuss using head gestures with your AirPods 4 or AirPods Pro.
