News & Reviews:   iOS 14

Last week, users of iOS 14 beta have gotten notifications alerting them that TikTok was trying to access their clipboards. Not only the doing has invaded users' privacy, but it also exists as a possibility to cause users' data being stolen by someone else. After that, TikTok has immediately submitted a new update to the App Store to fix the issue. However, it turns out that TikTok is not the only app accessing users' clipboards.

With the announcement of iOS 14 being made, many users are quite excited about the new features that are coming soon to Apple devices. Other than those features, it looks like the latest OS update has some impressive skills as well. It is reported that the iOS 14 beta has caught TikTok reading users' clipboards.

While many beta testers are still exploring iOS 14, one of the features they found is really exciting. According to multiple sources, their YouTube video resolution can be toggled up to 4K. Sweet, but it's still in beta testing. 

Apple made a bunch of announcements at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, WWDC 2020. This includes the new iOS 14 with a redesigned iPhone home screen and new widgets, iPadOS 14, WatchOS 7, macOS Big Sur, and the new updates for TVOS. The new iOS 14 comes with few new features which are new to Apple iPhone users but familiar to Android users. 

It wasn't that long ago when iOS 13.5.1 was released, but now we have some news on the upcoming iOS 13.6 and iPadOS 13.6 update. According to sources, the second developer beta software is already rolled out by Apple and we will be seeing some new features. This includes a toggle for updates that lets you choose to download and install automatically or not.

The iOS 13.5 update may have dropped just recently, but Apple is already hard at work on the next big release. iOS 14 is expected to be unveiled at the WWDC 2020 that is to be held during a live-stream, which will showcase new features to macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. But some details have popped up over the months, with the latest piece of news about Apple developing a built-in translator and Apple Pencil support for the Safari browser.

While Apple iPhone 12 rumours are slowly picking up steam, there is some big news surrounding the upcoming iOS 14 update this year. According to 9to5mac.com, it seems that Apple may finally have a new look on their iPhone's home screen with widgets.

Last week, people were able to go through iOS 14's coding to find hints of many new upcoming products. At the time, it was hinted that a new iPad Pro is indeed coming. Sources have mentioned that we will likely be seeing four new models and the latest leak reinforces that claim.

When it comes to chatting apps, most people in Malaysia would recognize WhatsApp and WeChat as the superior ones. In other countries, they also have their own favourites with apps like LINE, Tencent QQ and many more. However, some of the Apple users would still prefer iMessage over the other third-party apps, with its extra cool features like Animoji and Memoji to express yourself. Now, it is rumoured that there are a few new updates coming to the platform which will make users’ lives easier.

Adding more tracking capabilities to a smartwatch is the way to go and Apple knows this. It has been reported that coding for new features for the Apple Watch was found in iOS 14. Specifically, it will be health-centric and could be critical in the early detection of health issues.
