Apple Continues Fight to Return Blood Oxygen Sensing to the Apple Watch


Apple and Masimo’s legal battle over the Apple Watch’s Blood Oxygen sensing feature continues this week as both firms meet in a California court for a bench trial. Masimo is expected to argue that Apple illegally poached some of its employees and stole trade secrets while developing the Apple Watch feature.

In addition to the patent dispute that forced the removal of the Apple Watch blood oxygen sensor in the US, Masimo filed a separate lawsuit against Apple in 2020. That one wasn’t related to patents but claimed that the Cupertino firm stole trade secrets and improperly used Masimo health monitoring inventions in the Apple Watch.

How to Adjust Text Size on Your iPhone

Depending on which iPhone you have, the display might be too small for you to read without needing your glasses, which can be annoying.

On the other hand, you might have great vision and want to reduce the text size a bit more so you can see more on your screen at a time.

How to have Siri read your messages in multiple languages

Apple’s voice assistant Siri can announce incoming calls and read texts, iMessages, WhatsApp messages, and more when you’re using AirPods, Bluetooth earphones, other headphones & speakers, and CarPlay.

By default, Siri reads the messages in the language and voice you set as the Siri Voice in Settings. For instance, Siri Voice on my iPhone is set to American Voice 1. So, all incoming texts are read in this chosen accent and style.

How to Use Apple's Version of Google Magic Eraser


Clean Up is one of Apple Intelligence's flashier new features, which you can try out now with an iPhone 15 Pro or above running the new iOS 18.1 update. It's Apple's AI photo editing tool, specifically built for removing background objects or other unwanted parts of an image with just a tap. Think of it like the iOS version of Google's Magic Eraser.

In typical iPhone fashion, it's quite simple to use. You can simply tap on objects to remove them, or circle around a larger object to let Apple do its thing. Here's how it works.

Apple’s Passwords app won me over with this one unique feature

Apple has offered password management features for years, but never until iOS 18 has there been a dedicated Passwords app. The new app has a lot going for it, but there’s one feature in particular that’s stood out for me above the rest: Shared Groups.

How to Use the New iPhone Control Center in iOS 18

The iPhone Control Center has been totally revamped in iOS 18. You You can now move pretty much every control around, add more controls than ever before, and even access multiple pages of controls. My only complaint is that it's still a bit too hard to launch Control Center from the top-right corner of the iPhone's display, but there's a way around that, too. That gripe aside, it's a great time to start customizing your Control Center, and here's how to do it.
