FTC Notice

  • Pursuant to 16 CFR Part 255, the Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, please note: (1) iPhone software and hardware developers routinely send me free versions of their products to review. I sometimes keep and continue to use these products that I did not pay for after posting my review, which might be considered a form of compensation for my review, but I do not believe that I let that color my review. (2) When I post links to product pages on Amazon, my links include a referral code so that when products are purchased after clicking on the link, I often receive a very small percentage of the sale. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Again, I do not believe that I let that color my review of products. (3) Some of the ads that run on this website are selected by others. If one of these ads comes from the seller of a product reviewed on iPhone J.D., that is a coincidence, and I do not believe that it colors my review of that product. Other ads are from paid advertisers, and if I discuss a product from a company that is a current advertiser, I will note that. (4) Some of the ads that run on this website are from monthly sponsors of iPhone J.D. When I discuss products from these companies on iPhone J.D., I do so to pass along information provided to me by the sponsor. Often, I will also provide my own commentary on the product, and while my goal is to be honest, please keep in mind that I was compensated to promote the product. If you have any questions about this, just send me an e-mail or post a comment on a specific product review.

Podcast episode 178: Busy Busy Apples, Bicycles 🚲 for the Mind, and The Painful Passkey 🗝️ Transition Period

In-the-NewsWe start this week's episode of the In the News podcast by discussing the surprisingly large number of new products introduced by Apple in 2024. I wonder if we will see as many in 2025? Next, we talk about Apple's sophisticated anechoic chamber that it uses to test microphones and speakers, the transition from passwords to passkeys, some CarPlay tips, and how Apple wants to help you stick to your New Year's Resolutions.

In our In the Show segment, we discuss the fact that Apple TV+ is free for everyone this weekend, and also discuss a few great shows.

In our In the Know segment, Brett recommends changing the buttons at the bottom of your lock screen to, for example, launch a favorite app. And I share a tip about tips—advice on changing the tips on your Apple AirPods Pro.
