Best iPad for seniors 2024
Macworld
If you’re an older user looking to pick up an iPad or someone wanting to gift an Apple tablet to Grandad or Grandma, which is the best iPad to choose? There’s a fair selection in the current Apple catalog, from the diminutive iPad mini all the way up to the incredibly powerful (not to mention very expensive) iPad Pro. It can be intimidating, especially as different users have different needs. To help you make sense of it all, here’s our guide to finding the best iPad for seniors.
What makes an iPad good for older users?
iPad owners don’t magically transform into timid technophobes on their 70th birthdays, and there isn’t one right answer to this question. Any iPad model might turn out to be the right choice for a specific older user, depending on that user’s precise requirements.

AppleTrack repeated the same bends with the M2 iPad Pro and the new M4 iPad Pro to compare, and whereas the M4 iPad Pro came away almost unscathed, the M2 iPad Pro had a definitive curl in the corner near the cameras.

Apple Brings Eye-Tracking To Recent iPhones and iPads
This week, in celebration of Global Accessibility Awareness Day, Apple is introducing several new accessibility features. Noteworthy additions include eye-tracking support for recent iPhone and iPad models, customizable vocal shortcuts, music haptics, and vehicle motion cues. Engadget reports: The most intriguing feature of the set is the ability to use the front-facing camera on iPhones or iPads (at least those with the A12 chip or later) to navigate the software without additional hardware or accessories. With this enabled, people can look at their screen to move through elements like apps and menus, then linger on an item to select it. That pause to select is something Apple calls Dwell Control, which has already been available elsewhere in the company's ecosystem like in Mac's accessibility settings. The setup and calibration process should only take a few seconds, and on-device AI is at work to understand your gaze. It'll also work with third-party apps from launch, since it's...

An anonymous reader shares a report: There are concerning reports on Reddit that Apple's latest iOS 17.5 update has introduced a bug that causes old photos that were deleted -- in some cases years ago -- to reappear in users' photo libraries. After updating their iPhone, one user said they were shocked to find old NSFW photos that they deleted in 2021 suddenly showing up in photos marked as recently uploaded to iCloud. Other users have also chimed in with similar stories. "Same here," said one Redditor. "I have four pics from 2010 that keep reappearing as the latest pics uploaded to iCloud. I have deleted them repeatedly." "Same thing happened to me," replied another user. "Six photos from different times, all I have deleted. Some I had deleted in 2023." More reports have been trickling in overnight. One said: "I had a random photo from a concert taken on my Canon camera reappear in my phone library, and it showed up as if it was added today."

Much like Apple Watches, extra Apple Watch bands can be rather pricey, so whenever one snaps, replacing it can burn your pocket for $50. Thankfully, we found a fantastic model on clearance at Walmart that’s just $14, good for $35 off the original MSRP and a great chance to grab an official Apple Watch for less than some third-party options.
The discounted model is the 40mm/44mm Black Unity Sports Band. This special edition watch band was created to celebrate Black history and culture and is inspired by the Pan-African flag, featuring the same beautiful combination of black, red, and green. The band also has an inscription that reads “Truth. Power. Solidarity.”

Apple’s latest iPads gain the iPhone 15’s best...
Macworld
One of our favorite new features of the iPhone 15 is the ability to limit charging to just 80 percent. For years now, some Apple products have had an optimized battery charging feature that takes into account your typical daily charging and usage routine and will only charge your iPhone or Mac up to 80% when it has determined you’re unlikely to need more.
But the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro introduce a third option: force charging to stop at 80 percent. It’s a great option for those concerned about the long-term health of their iPhone batteries, as keeping a battery fully charged causes it to degrade faster, and limiting to 80 percent will help the battery retain its full capacity for a...

Making iPadOS finally live up to the iPad’s...
Every time a new iPad Pro is released, the reviews repeat the same narrative: powerful hardware, hamstrung software. The M4 reviews have been no exception.
This gap isn’t because of a lack of effort on Apple’s part. The company has continually developed and pushed iPadOS forward in the nine years since the iPad Pro debuted. But the general consensus among reviewers is that there’s still a lot of work to do.
But what, exactly, would that work look like? How might the iPad’s software finally make good on the potential of its hardware?
Federico Viticci at MacStories has attempted to answer exactly those questions.

Macworld
The iPad Pro starts shipping to the public on Wednesday. If you’re looking to buy one, you’ll need to figure out a few things. Such as the size you want, how much storage you need, which chip you need, and whether should you get the glossy standard glass, or pay the extra $100 for the matte Nano-texture glass.
If you can’t decide, Apple has an incentive for you to go with the Nano-texture glass: it comes with a polishing cloth, as discovered by @NikiasMolina.

With Mac OS X Leopard, which was released in 2007, Apple added a feature called “Web Clip” to Dashboard. This allowed users to turn any part of a website into a live widget that could then be added to Dashboard and would update in real-time.
While Dashboard on the Mac is dead, a new app this week brings the Web Clip idea back to life – this time on Apple Vision Pro.
