With the on-going coronavirus outbreak, it has also affected the business world as well which means slowing down the manufacturing process of certain products. Since so many things are "Made in China", this also includes Apple and they recently announced that all the official stores, contact centres and corporate offices will be closed until 9 February 2020.

In this short announcement, there is now a new update from Apple regarding the apps closing in the background bug issue that was rampant in the previous iOS update. Now with iOS and iPadOS 13.2.2, this will be the fix for the bug so Apple users shouldn't be experiencing such a quick app shut down while multitasking and others. 

In case you didn't know, Apple TV+ is actually going to launch in Malaysia! It will start from tomorrow onwards (2 November 2019) and the official monthly payment is RM19.90. All Apple device users such as the iPhone, iPad, Mac, iPod Touch and an Apple TV device can stream Apple TV+. 

In conjunction with World Emoji Day (yes, apparently it's a thing), Apple will be releasing more new emojis in the fourth quarter of 2019. From food to smiley faces, there are approximately 59 new additions which include a parachute, skunk, prosthetic arm, onion, and more couples holding hands, and many, many more.

A supply chain in China claims that Apple may be working on a more affordable version of the iPhone without their iconic Face ID. Sources say that it may instead come with an under-display (UD) fingerprint reader to keep costs low and notches smaller (a definite plus if this were to happen).

If you're an Apple user and likes to participate in iOS beta tests, you now have an opportunity to join the public beta tests for Apple iOS 13, iPadOS as well as macOS Catalina.

Apple did not waste any time by introducing new updates and features on the upcoming iOS 13 in the WWDC 19 event. That said, the iPad owners aren't left out as well and there is a new iPadOS name with plenty of updates. This includes a new way to work in multiple windows, a redesigned Home screen, Apple Pencil usage and more for both consumers and content creators alike.

So Apple's WWDC 2019 just flew over our heads and as usual, the company has announced the upcoming iOS 13 updates. Among the updates, the dark mode was one of them which was long overdue and there are many more including improved performance without slowing down older Apple iPhones in order to save the battery. Without further ado, let's take a look at what iOS 13 has to offer.

Apple is currently recalling all their three-prong AC wall plug adapters or in layman’s terms, the charger for the Apple devices from the year 2003 to 2010. The company had found that in rare cases, the adapter can break and electrocute the user if the metal parts are touched.

Hey Apple iPhone users, iOS 12.2 software update is now available and it has a couple of new features includes Apple News Plus, new Animoji, Siri upgraded, improved AirPlay, Apple Pay, Safari, AirPods and many more.
