The upcoming iOS 18.4 update for the iPhone includes a smaller but meaningful improvement for Apple's in-car iPhone mirroring system CarPlay.
Specifically, CarPlay now shows a third row of icons, up from two rows previously. However, this change is only visible in vehicles with a larger center display. For example, a MacRumors Forums member noticed the change in a Toyota Tundra with a...

iPhones are finally getting a much-requested setting, but availability is limited.
The upcoming iOS 18.4 update introduces an option to set a default navigation app, other than Apple Maps, but unfortunately this new setting is limited to users in the EU.

The Apple Intelligence features that Apple introduced with iOS 18 are not pushing people to upgrade their iPhones, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reiterated today. Apple's recent Siri failures are also going to have an impact on 2025 iPhone shipments, which the market is beginning to realize.
As early as last July, Kuo said expectations that Apple Intelligence could drive iPhone upgrades were...
Good luck with Best Buy. I ordered a Studio Display with VESA mount earlier this week and they bungled it from every angle. It was broken in transit and automatically returned to them. They didn't contact me and just cancelled the order.
The VESA model is sold out now, and when I reached out to them they refused to let me swap the purchase for the regular stand model, which is the exact same price.
Instead, after over two hours with customer support, I get to wait 7-20 days for the refund to process, by which point I'm unlikely to get this deal again.
It’s best to not have expensive stuff like TVs delivered
I'm not sure what kind of point you are trying to make here. Logistics are a gigantic industry and nearly everything purchased is moved using several different modes of transportation. If the majority of shipped items broke the modern economy would break down.
Not that I should feel the need to explain myself to you, but neither Best Buy nor Apple had (or have) the VESA mount version of the Apple Studio Display available for store pick-up. I would have happily gone to collect it myself.
ooo, those $599 256GB iPad Air deals are really nice. Rare to see a 20% discount on brand-new iPads, even on Black Friday. And my wife could really use an upgrade from her iPad Air 3.
The question is, however... how nice of a husband am I? ?
