Rumors have been swirling about announcements of updated Macs. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has been all over them, saying in an early October Power On newsletter that Apple was planning to announce a suite of Macs powered by M4 chips as well as a refreshed iPad Mini — though that has since been announced.

Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Verizon has relaunched its family-tracking app with a Safe Walk SOS feature, allowing users to share their real-time location with emergency contacts and send notifications when they arrive safely. Users can also access a silent SOS button that will alert contacts if they need help. The new Verizon Family app replaces the Smart Family service that the carrier launched in 2019. It comes with many of the same features, including ways to track the locations of family members, view how much time a child is spending on their phone, and set limits on screen time. The Verizon Family app also lets parents view their child’s call and text activity (without actually viewing their messages), monitor their teen’s driving activity, and set location...

There’s a banner printed on the top of the card that tells you there’s a gift card inside. | Image: Hallmark Hallmark announced new physical greeting cards that include digital gift cards inside. The “Gift Card Greetings” line means you can hand someone a real card, paired with the convenience of not needing to tape on an extra piece of plastic. It’s a little bit more personal than buying someone an e-gift card and having a code land somewhere in their email inbox. The gift card comes in the form of a QR code printed on the inside flap of Hallmark’s card that is used for both loading and redeeming its value. The new cards are an expansion of Hallmark’s other digital-gift-in-a-physical-card idea that lets you include cash via Venmo, so you don’t have to go to the ATM. For the new cards, the buyer peels off a sticker to reveal the QR code, and... Continue reading…

Illustration: The Verge Apple is adding a new child safety feature that lets kids send a report to Apple when they are sent photos or videos with nudity, according to The Guardian. After reviewing anything received, the company can report messages to law enforcement. The new feature expands on Apple’s Communication Safety feature, which uses on-device scanning to detect nudity in photos or videos received via Messages, AirDrop, or Contact Poster and blur them out. In addition to blurring the photo or video, Apple also shows a pop-up with options to message an adult, get resources for help, or block the contact. As part of this new feature, which is in testing now in Australia with iOS 18.2, users will also be able to send a report to Apple about any images or... Continue reading…

Apple is expected to announce new M4 Macs starting October 28th. According to the company's top executive, Cupertino is preparing "an exciting week of announcements ahead, starting Monday morning." If rumors are true, the company should unveil new M4 Macs, including the new Mac mini, refreshed MacBook Pro models, and an iMac next week. Interestingly, we also expect Apple to release iOS 18.1 alongside Apple Intelligence features on October 28th. After refreshing MacBook Air models early this year with the M3 chip, Apple is finally ready to unveil its new M4 Macs. https://twitter.com/gregjoz/status/1849484363165213148 Here's what to expect from next week's announcements M3 Max MacBook Pro 14-Inch laptop. Image source: Christian de Looper for BGR The most interesting announcement coming next week should be a revamped Mac mini. According to the latest rumors, Apple is making this accessory almost the size of an Apple TV while also adding the M4 and M4 Pro chips, as well as more USB-C ports. For the MacBook Pro, the company is expected to unveil 14-inch and 16-inch models with the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max processors. So far, the only Apple product with the M4 chip is the iPad Pro. Fortunately, this processor's variants should significantly improve CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine. The last Mac expected to be introduced next week is the M4 iMac. After a disappointing upgrade with the M3 chip, we hope Cupertino at least offers the new iMac in new colors. It's also rumored that this computer will get new USB-C accessories, including the Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, and Magic Trackpad. Last year, Apple hosted an online event called Scary Fast, where it announced the new M3 Macs. This time, the company seems to be focusing on press releases and, possibly, videos highlighting these new products. If we learn about other products, the company might announce we will update this story.
