Podcast episode 97: Rapid Security, Static Islands, and Skydiving iPhones

In-The-NewsThere were lots of things to talk about on this week's episode of the In the News podcast. We start by discussing Apple's new savings account service and how Apple is becoming a bank. Next, we discuss CarPlay adoption and shortcomings, Apple's new method of delivering security updates to your iPhone, new uses for the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 14 Pro, the demise of the Brydge Keyboard, and skydiving with an iPhone.

In our Where Y'at? segment, we discuss the City of New York's announcement that it was giving out 500 free AirTags to help combat carjacking and Apple and Google's announcement that they are teaming up to reduce the risk of improper use of tracking devices.

In our In the Know segment, we talk about ways to customize Siri. Brett explains how to control the way that Siri announces notifications, such as reading new text messages when you are wearing AirPods. I explain a way to speed up using Siri to respond to a text message by turning off the request for a confirmation before sending your reply.
