Rave's anti-Sherlocking suit delayed as Apple gets it moved to California
At Apple's request, a judge has agreed to move Rave, Inc's lawsuit over copying features to the Northern District of California. It's a blow for Rave as it potentially gives Apple a home-field advantage.

Hands on: Siri Recaps & Live Rewind are controversial & unnecessary technologies
After spending a day with Apple's Audio Intelligence features, they feel more like checked boxes than fully realized and useful features in spite of the clear privacy and boundaries present.
Siri Recap and Live Rewind are odd features for Apple to offer

StandBy on iPhone Duo is even better than you thought
StandBy is a feature that has been available on iPhones since 2023, but with iPhone Duo, Apple has upgraded it to become a whole new way to access glanceable information not just when charging, but whenever it's not being used.
