Apple always finds a way...

It seems that, with the obligation of the Digital Markets Act (DMA), and already available by obligation in iOS version 17.4, which allows installation through third-party, there's a catch. Apple will let developers launch their alternative stores, but there's a fee after a certain point, and it's limited to the "number of free installations available."

👽 But what does this mean?

Apple allows installation based on certain terms, and after reaching the limit of free installations (1 million) a store can offer, they will be required to pay a fee to continue distributing their apps or games. This ensures that no pirated or modified applications are available to users through these stores.

iOS 17.4 | Apple enhances security: tricky accounts get the "unknown" label

▫️▫️▫️▫️Let's talk!
❤️ @TwappleCenter🔥
⚡️ Boost & Support ▫️❤️

Apple has considered everything, including marking the location as "unknown." So, users don't achieve much. If you've tried downloading a game or app exclusive to a specific country on the App Store, you probably used the trick of creating an account for that region. However, this might not work for fake accounts in the European Union due to the presence of third-party stores.

Apple can now identify the authenticity not only of alternative stores but also of the tactics users try to employ to bypass the system, through more than 600 APIs.

Microsoft tried to sell Bing to Apple, revealed in internal Google documents

Internal Google documents disclosed in the US Department of Justice's lawsuit against Google's web search monopoly reveal Microsoft's repeated attempts to sell Bing to Apple.

🍏 Apple Search Engine

Despite Microsoft's proposals to make Bing the default search engine in Safari, Apple declined due to Bing's inferior search quality compared to Google. This evidence supports Google's argument against monopolistic practices, emphasizing healthy competition. In 2018, Microsoft also sought to enhance Bing's quality, suggesting a potential sale or joint venture with Apple.

The information comes from Bloomberg, and according to Mark Gurman (analyst), the design change in iOS 18 will be similar to what Apple is using in VisionOS (Vision Pro).

iPhone owners have been targeted in a significant hacker attack

⚡️ | You can boost Twapple

Users in more than 90 countries received messages prompting them to enter a password for someone else's Apple ID. Entering your Apple ID password in response could lead to it being stolen, so it's crucial to avoid doing so.

Simply close any window requesting your password. Some users also received a notification stating: "Apple has detected that you are the victim of a spyware attack attempting to compromise the iPhone associated with your Apple ID remotely."

Apple is aware of the issue and is working on a solution. The attackers utilized a highly sophisticated method to bypass protection, surpassing conventional malware.

Ironically, the first emulator available on the App Store has already been removed by Apple

⚡️ | You can boost Twapple

The Game Boy emulator, iGBA (clearly a copy of developer Riley Testut's GBA4iOS), was the first app of its kind for retro gaming approved by Apple, but it didn't last long and was soon removed from the App Store.

The reason for this decision was copyright infringement and spam.

⚡️ | You can boost Twapple

Apple is rumored to be preparing for the release of iOS 18, which will bring advanced AI capabilities to the platform.

iOS 18 is expected to leverage generative AI to elevate user experiences across different aspects of the operating system, with the AI processing taking place directly on the iPhone itself, without reliance on cloud processing.

According to reports, iOS 18 will seamlessly integrate generative AI technology into core features like Spotlight, Siri and Safari, enhancing user experiences across the operating system.

Despite these enhancements, Apple has no immediate plans to introduce its own chatbot akin to ChatGPT.

Apple removed these apps at the request of the Chinese government. These foreign messaging apps, as well as many other global social networks, have already been blocked within mainland China. Users had been accessing them via VPNs.

Files found in iOS 17.4 indicate AI running locally on iPhone in iOS 18

iOS 17.4 files hint that Apple's iOS 18 will include a large language model running directly on the iPhone. This local processing could restrict the language model's data compared to server-based alternatives.

The local processing boosts algorithm speed and preserves user privacy, aligning with Apple's values. Files from iOS 17.4 mention an LLM called Ajax, indicating plans for AI integration on iPhone. More details are expected during WWDC 24 on June 10.

No joke, but the big news about the iPad 18 is...

💬 | Let's chat!
⚡️ | You can boost Twapple

The major innovation in the iPad 18 is that it will include a built-in calculator. This refers to the system's native app, which iPads have been lacking.

Currently, iPads do not have a native calculator app, so users must rely on third-party apps from the App Store.

— It might sound like a joke, but it's true. No calculator? Unplayable.

Apple’s poor design choices: coincidence or intent?

Apple’s recent design choices have left many users scratching their heads. For example, the new Mac Mini’s power button is inconveniently located on the bottom, requiring users to lift or tilt the device just to turn it on or restart it.

Likewise, the mouse design has a charging port on the underside, making it impossible to use while charging. This setup has users wondering if Apple prioritizes aesthetics over functionality or if these choices are simply foolish.

What’s your take?

Police struggle to unlock iPhones with iOS 18’s new security

Recent reports reveal that iOS 18 complicates brute-force access attempts, as offline devices may reboot into a secure "Before First Unlock" state, blocking unauthorized access.

Apple has partially addressed similar issues in iOS 18.1, but it's unclear if this reboot behavior is intentional.
