But one feature I can't wait to turn on will hopefully be something I can forget about. A new Adaptive Power setting promises to extend battery power by selectively applying energy savings in small ways that add up. It's currently available in the iOS 26 developer beta and is expected to ship in the fall. See also:

Tim Cook has a new deputy but Apple’s next CEO is probably still someone else

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-08-29 19:16:56

Jeff Williams, often considered Tim Cook’s successor, is leaving Apple. Sabih Khan, a 30-year veteran of the company, is Apple’s next chief operating officer. Does Khan taking Cook’s old job make him CEO-designate? Jeff Williams retiring certainly clears the path for Khan to climb up the succession planning ladder. However, I would wager that Apple’s CEO succession plan isn’t changing. Jeff Williams retires and Sabih Khan steps up Jeff Williams, who has been called Tim Cook’s Tim Cook, has alw

FTC’s click-to-cancel rule has been struck down by federal judges at the eleventh hour

engadget.com Unknown 2025-08-30 04:35:03

In 2024, the FTC was set to implement the "click to cancel" rule, which would have placed requirements on companies to be forthright about the terms and conditions and exit options for their subscriptions. Since that time, the agency has become a less independent part of the executive branch and in May, it delayed enforcing some parts of this rule to July 14. Today, the entire plan appears to be dead in the water after judges in the US Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals decided to vacate the rule.
