A Apple voltou a pensar no Touch ID, e ainda não quer largar o osso da capinha tramada.
On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through what to expect from the Apple Watch SE 3, Series 11, and Ultra 3, and whether it's worth holding off on an upgrade until next year. The third-generation Apple Watch SE is rumored to feature a larger display (perhaps like the Apple Watch Series 7), the S11 chip, and potentially a plastic casing. It could also available at a slightly lower price point. The Apple Watch Series 11 will likely feature the S11 chip, 5G RedCap connectivity on cellular models, a "Sleep Score" feature, and potentially hypertension detection. The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is rumored to also get all of these new features, as well as a slightly larger wide-angle OLED display with a faster refresh rate, and satellite connectivity. Earlier this week, internal Apple code revealed that the 2026 Apple Watch lineup is poised to get some major enhancements. The new devices will feature Touch ID for biometric authentication, a redesigned chip based on newer CPU technology for improved performance, a revamped design with a new rear sensor array, and more.

In this episode, Tyler walks through how multi-user accounts work on macOS—why you might use them, how to add a new user, ways to switch quickly (including Touch ID), and how to safely delete an account while preserving data for troubleshooting. He also covers guest access, account types (Administrator, Standard, and Sharing Only), and a few accessibility tips with VoiceOver.Key PointsWhy multi-user: Separate files, settings, and Apple Account sync per person; great for shared Macs or isolating issues by testing in a fresh account.Account types: Administrator can change system settings and install software.Standard has its own files/settings but cannot administer the Mac.Sharing Only can access shared services remotely but cannot log in at the Mac.Guest user: If FileVault is on, Guest can only use Safari; if off, Guest can use apps but all data is wiped on logout.Fast User Switching: Add the menu-bar item via Control Center settings (listed as “Menu Bar” in macOS Tahoe per the recording timeframe), then switch from the status menu.Touch ID switching: Register different fingers per account to jump between users instantly—even from the lock screen.Deleting an account: Three options—(1) save home folder as a disk image under Deleted Users, (2) don't change the home folder, or (3) delete the home folder.Troubleshooting tip: You can preserve your home folder, delete the account, then recreate it with the same account name to merge and reset settings—handy if issues are account-specific.Shared folder caveat: The /Users/Shared folder defaults to read/write for creator and read-only for others; permissions can be finicky, and other sharing methods may be easier.Step-by-Step GuideCreate a New User Open System Settings > Users & Groups, and click Add User…Pick an Account Type (Administrator, Standard, or Sharing Only). Standard is the default.Enter Full Name; Account Name (home folder name) will auto-fill. Set a Password and optional Hint, then click Create User.First Login & Touch ID Log out of your account, select the new user, and sign in.In Setup Assistant, the user can enroll Touch ID with their finger.Enable Fast User Switching (Menu Bar) Go to System Settings > Control Center (labeled “Menu Bar” in future macOS versions relative to the time of recording).Find Fast User Switching and set it to Show (e.g., show Account Name). Then use the status menus to switch users.Switch Between Users Instantly From the menu bar via Fast User Switching, or with Touch ID, a user can press the sensor with the finger registered to their account (works at the lock screen once accounts have been logged into).Share Files Between Accounts (Optional) Use /Users/Shared; creator has read/write, others read-only by default. Adjust permissions via Get Info if needed—but expect some Unix permission quirks.Delete a User Safely In Users & Groups, click the "Show detail" button for an account, click Delete User, and choose what to do with the Home folder.TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by…

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we catch up on all of the latest rumors about Apple's first foldable iPhone amid a multitude of reports about the device and its launch firming up for next year. Apple's foray into foldable smartphones has been rumored for many years, but it looks like the rumors will finally come to fruition next year. Full-scale prototyping of the device reportedly began last month, Samsung has begun production on the OLED displays destined for the foldable, and it is now believed to be on track to reach launch alongside the iPhone 18lineup in 2026. The first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display, a 5.5-inch outer display, a unique hinge system, two rear cameras (wide and ultra wide), one front-facing camera, and a Touch ID power button instead of Face ID. It is likely to be 4.5mm when unfolded, and between 9mm and 9.5mm when folded. For comparison, the latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 measures 4.2mm when unfolded, and 8.9mm when folded. It also features three rear cameras, instead of Apple's anticipated two. However, Apple is apparently seeking to outdo Samsung with a "crease-free" display thanks to an innovative design that uses a metal plate to disperse and control the stress generated by bending the display. This would be an industry first. It is expected to cost $1,800 to $2,000. Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 7 starts at $1,999.99. Take control of your finances with Copilot Money.

In this On Location episode during OWASP AppSec Global 2025 in Barcelona, Sean Martin connects with event speaker, Wojciech Dworakowski, to unpack a critical and underexamined issue in today's financial systems: the vulnerability of mobile-only banking apps when it comes to transaction authorization.Wojciech points out that modern banking has embraced the mobile-first model—sometimes at the cost of fundamental security principles. Most banks now concentrate transaction initiation, security configuration, and transaction authorization into a single device: the user's smartphone. While this offers unmatched convenience, it also creates a single point of failure. If an attacker successfully pairs their phone with a victim's account, they can bypass multiple layers of security, often without needing traditional credentials.The discussion explores the limitations of relying solely on biometric options like Face ID or Touch ID. These conveniences may appear secure but often weaken the overall security posture when used without additional independent verification mechanisms. Wojciech outlines how common attack strategies have shifted from stealing credit card numbers to full account takeover—enabled by social engineering and weak device-pairing controls.He proposes a “raise the bar” strategy rather than relying on a single silver-bullet solution. Suggestions include enhanced device fingerprinting, detection of emulators or rooted environments, and shared interbank databases for device reputation and account pairing anomalies. While some of these are already in motion under new EU and UK regulations, they remain fragmented.Wojciech also introduces a bold idea: giving users a slider in the app to adjust their personal balance of convenience vs. security. This kind of usability-driven approach could empower users while still offering layered defense.For CISOs, developers, and FinTech leaders, the message is clear—evaluate your app security as if attackers already know the shortcuts. Watch the full conversation to hear Wojciech's real-world examples, including a cautionary tale from his own family. Catch the episode and learn how to design financial security that's not just strong—but usable.GUEST: Wojciech Dworakowski | OWASP Poland Chapter Board Member and Managing Partner at SecuRing | https://www.linkedin.com/in/wojciechdworakowski/HOST: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.comSPONSORSManicode Security: https://itspm.ag/manicode-security-7q8iRESOURCESLearn more and catch more stories from OWASP AppSec Global 2025 Barcelona coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/owasp-global-appsec-barcelona-2025-application-security-event-coverage-in-catalunya-spainCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

Faltbar, kompakt – und Touch ID ist zurück: Was hinter Apples mysteriösem iPhone-Prototyp steckt.
On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through how the iPhone lineup is rumored to change after the release of the iPhone 17 lineup later this year, looking at what to expect in 2026, 2027, and beyond. Apple's recently rumored iPhone roadmap beyond the iPhone 17 reveals a significant strategic shift in both release cadence and product positioning. With increasing competition, an expanding lineup, and evolving manufacturing logistics—particularly the move away from China toward production in India—Apple is exploring a staggered release schedule designed to avoid marketing fatigue and maintain focus across the six main iPhone models that are expected to be on sale by the end of next year. In spring 2026, Apple may introduce the "iPhone 17e" as a refresh of the lower-cost model introduced this year. The major wave of change begins in fall 2026, with the launch of the "iPhone 18 Air," "iPhone 18 Pro," and "iPhone 18 Pro Max." The Pro models are expected to introduce under-display Face ID for the first time, reducing the need for a visible sensor array and leaving only a small camera hole at the top-left corner of the display. It remains unclear how this change will affect the presence or function of the Dynamic Island. Camera upgrades are also expected, including a variable aperture 48MP main lens and a likely new Samsung sensor for the ultra-wide camera. Other enhancements include Apple's in-house "C2" modem and an "A20" chip made with TSMC's upcoming 2nm process. Fall 2026 is also expected to mark the debut of Apple's first foldable iPhone. Featuring a book-style design, the device will offer a 5.7-inch outer display and a 7.8-inch inner display. Apple reportedly aims to beat competitors with a superior hinge mechanism crafted from titanium and stainless steel, and a display with a nearly invisible crease. Unlike other flagship iPhones, the foldable model will use Touch ID embedded in the power button instead of Face ID, likely due to internal space constraints. It will also purportedly include just two rear cameras, a high-density battery, and an impressively slim profile: 4.5mm when open, and 9–9.5mm when closed. In spring 2027, the base "iPhone 18" and "iPhone 18e" models will follow. In fall 2027, Apple is expected to introduce the "iPhone 19 Air" with a larger display, exceeding the 6.6 inches of the previous two Air models. The "iPhone 19 Pro" and "iPhone 19 Pro Max"—possibly branded to mark the 20th anniversary of the iPhone—will feature a "bold" redesign, incorporating more glass and, for the first time, an under-display front camera. The result will likely be a true edge-to-edge screen without notches or cutouts, fulfilling a long-standing vision for a seamless all-display iPhone. The second-generation foldable iPhone is also scheduled for fall 2027, building on the first model with further refinements and enhanced durability. While plans for spring 2028 are less concrete, it's likely that the standard "iPhone 19" and potentially "iPhone 19e" models will arrive then, continuing the new spring/fall rollout rhythm. Looking even further ahead, Apple's ambitions may go beyond smartphones altogether. According to remarks from Apple executive Eddy Cue this week, the iPhone could be obsolete within a decade, replaced by AI-powered wearables and ambient computing experiences
Mikah Sargent dives deep into Archive Utility on macOS, a powerful but often overlooked tool that works behind the scenes to compress and expand files on your Mac. From creating basic zip archives to encrypted files, this episode reveals all the hidden features of this versatile utility. -How compression works - Compression algorithms look for repeating patterns in data to make files smaller, though already compressed files like JPEGs may not benefit much. -Quick compression with right-click - The fastest way to compress files is selecting them, right-clicking, and choosing "Compress," which always creates a standard zip file. -Opening Archive Utility - Access it directly by using Command+Space and typing "archive" to explore its full capabilities beyond the right-click option. -Archive Utility settings - Configure where expanded files are saved, what happens to archives after expansion, and whether to automatically expand nested archives. -Expansion options - Choose to keep, trash, or delete archives after expanding them, or move them to a specific location. -Compression options - Similar settings exist for what happens to original files after creating an archive. -Archive formats explained - Despite setting preferences in Archive Utility, the right-click "Compress" option always creates zip files regardless of settings. -Creating CPGZ archives - These compressed archives must be created by selecting a folder through the File menu, not through right-click compression. -Regular archives (CPIO) - Simple "briefcase" archives without compression, useful for bundling files without reducing size. -Apple Archive (AAR) - A Mac-specific format that uses multi-threaded compression to efficiently compact files. -Encrypted archives (AER) - Secure, password-protected archives that can be unlocked with Touch ID if saved to your keychain. -Why ZIP remains the standard - ZIP format is used for the right-click compression option because of its universal compatibility across different operating systems.

Despite the excitement surrounding the Vision Pro, the conversation quickly turns to the need for Touch ID integration, speculating on how it might enhance user experience when using the headset. We then shift our focus to Apple's strategic moves within the AR and VR landscape. The team examines analyst Mark Gurman's insights on the future of Vision Pro, considering the potential for a more affordable headset to cater to a broader audience and how it may impact the existing technology. Chuck and Marty share their thoughts on the contrasting narratives within the industry regarding the evolution of AR, with some advocating for a shift back to Touch ID while others are optimistic about Face ID advancements. The episode further delves into iOS 18 and its growing AI capabilities, particularly in relation to Siri and the Vision Pro. Our hosts express caution and skepticism over how these features could meaningfully connect with Vision Pro functionality, highlighting the general anticipation around upcoming updates but recognizing the gaps in integration that remain. As we transition to discussing Apple's ecosystem, we touch upon the remarkable success of the MacBook Air and the long-standing favor it holds among users, followed by a celebration of the MacBook Pro's anniversary and its evolution over the years. The conversation around iCloud storage tiers reveals concerns regarding Apple's pricing strategy and the lack of competitive offerings compared to other services, prompting a lively debate on how Apple can adapt in this area to retain user loyalty. Shifting gears, we address the recent push for RCS messaging support on iPhones and the mixed experiences users have had when communicating with Android devices, particularly in relation to security. A cautionary tale emerges around phishing scams targeting iPhone users, reinforcing the importance of vigilance in an increasingly complex digital landscape. Finally, we touch on the enhancements made to the Apple One subscription service, specifically the anticipated AI health coaching feature that is poised to elevate user engagement and fitness tracking. Our hosts enthusiastically discuss the future of Apple TV+, reviewing its market position and the steps Apple needs to take to improve visibility and user retention as they roll out new content.

Andru Edwards went to Apple Park to get the answers to some of the most pressing questions about privacy, security, and how Apple integrates these elements into every product. As Apple often says, privacy is a fundamental human right, and this video will give you an understanding of how that stance impacts you as an everyday user.We go over key features like App Tracking Transparency, which gives you control over which apps can track your activity, and the detailed privacy nutrition labels that provide transparency about app data usage. From Face ID's secure authentication to the data minimization principle, Apple is committed to protecting your personal information at every level. We also tackle some common misconceptions head-on. Are apps listening to you all the time? Does Apple store your Face ID and Touch ID data? The conversation also touches on how Apple handles requests from governments for user data and their firm stance on not creating backdoors for law enforcement, reinforcing their commitment to user privacy. When it comes to new features, we get into the privacy assurances of the recently announced Apple Intelligence at WWDC 2024. Learn how these advancements continue to prioritize privacy without compromising on convenience. Whether it's through on-device intelligence or private cloud compute, Apple ensures that your data is used responsibly and transparently.
