iOS 18 will let you record calls — and tells everyone for their privacy
The image shows a new recording option on the Phone app, which displays a soundwave, along with how long you’ve been recording. It will automatically tell call participants that they’re being recorded.
It then transcribes your call in the Notes app, where you can generate a summary using the new Apple Intelligence AI system. Audio transcription will only be available in English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, and Portuguese.

iOS 18 Lets You Lock and Hide Your Apps
iOS 18 introduces a feature allowing app locking or hiding via Face ID scan. Locked apps prompt for secondary authentication upon access. While not all apps are lockable, most, including third-party ones, can utilize this feature. Users can also hide locked apps, moving them to a hidden folder.
Locked or hidden apps remain concealed from search, notifications, and system areas. Disabling the lock feature requires a Face ID scan, ensuring security. This extends to iPad devices as well.

A revolutionary update in macOS 15 - Window Tiling
Window Tiling is finally supported in macOS with the new update. This makes it easier to arrange windows automatically on your screen without manually dragging and resizing each one individually or switching into full-screen mode.
This is a revolutionary change in macOS. We do not know if it supports keyboard shortcuts, and if it doesn't, Rectangle would still be quite useful.

ARM demands destruction of all PCs with Snapdragon X
ARM and Qualcomm are clashing over licensing agreements. ARM claims Qualcomm broke the deal by buying Nuvia and using its cores in Snapdragon X chips, which isn't covered by their license. ARM, in their lawsuit, demands that Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Microsoft, Lenovo, Samsung and other smaller manufacturers should destroy all notebooks or mini PCs with Snapdragon X CPUs.
This might be why Microsoft prefers to work with Mediatek and Nvidia rather than Qualcomm.
Qualcomm fired back with a lawsuit, accusing ARM of not delivering promised items. ARM wants to push through a new licensing models to base license costs on the price of the device rather than the processor.
The first court hearing is in December 2024, so the fate of these devices is uncertain for now.

Apple is not paying OpenAI to use ChatGPT in iOS 18
Neither Apple nor OpenAI is paying the other for the integration of ChatGPT. Instead, Apple values the exposure and technology integration, considering it equal to monetary payment.
Apple aims to secure revenue-sharing deals with AI companies, earning a cut from AI partners who monetize chatbot results on Apple platforms.
Currently, OpenAI’s ChatGPT iOS app supports ChatGPT Plus payments through Apple's In-App Purchase system, giving Apple a 15-30% cut.
