Quite a lot has happened in the last few days. If we ignore the classic happenings in the technological world and look directly at Apple itself, the list of news is breathtaking and it would take at least several articles to cover them all. After all, it was the apple company that recently stole all the attention for itself. Especially thanks to the special conference expected by all fans, where the giant presented a whole range of new products and, above all, the first chip from the Apple Silicon processor series. However, this is not the only favorable news that will please all honest apple lovers. That's why we've prepared another summary of the most important events for you, where we'll look at the news that could somehow get lost in the flood of news.

The iPhone 12 still dominates the market and the interest of users is not waning

Bad speakers claimed right after the release of the iPhone 12 that only a fraction of customers would reach for it and most would prefer a more favorable economic situation, but the opposite is true. The new model series pulls really hard and helps keep not only Apple devices afloat, but also the overall smartphone market. After all, this was confirmed by the most professional, i.e. Foxconn itself, which has the lion's share of the production and in the case of increased or, conversely, decreased sales to the world announces current information. And it's no wonder, because the company held a quarterly call with shareholders and investors, where it boasted about the numbers and did not forget to add that it largely owes its success to the iPhone 12.

The news was acknowledged by the world-renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, whose forecasts are rarely wrong. It was he who rushed so quickly with the information that the interest in the new models is higher than expected. In particular, the more premium Pro models, for which Apple even had to significantly increase the number of ordered units, are pulling from the news. There was also talk of the promised factory in Wisconsin in the United States, which was supposed to cost several billion dollars and provide work for 13 thousand people. At least that is what former US President Donald Trump promised. However, no construction has yet taken place, according to the state's governor, Tony Evers, and he openly accused Foxconn of giving people false hope. However, company representatives confirmed that they still plan to operate in Wisconsin, even though the original agreement fell through and the outcome is not in sight.

Apple TV is officially targeting PlayStation 5 and the previous generation

If you own a PlayStation gaming console and have been longingly eyeing the popular Apple TV, you've probably been disappointed until now. Although the apple company has promised support in the past, implementation has so far been delayed and players were not sure if they would ever see apple services at all. At the end of the generation, however, Apple turned around and rushed with a pleasant news that will please not only the future owners of the PlayStation 5, but also the owners of the previous generation. Apple TV is officially heading to both consoles, for the standard $4.99 per month, at least if interested parties decide to take advantage of the offer and also subscribe to the Apple TV+ cinema service. In addition, the platform will have full access to the iTunes Store, and there will also be full support from Sony, which will allocate a special place on the hard drive for the service. Xbox fans needn't despair either, that's where the platform headed last week, both new and old generation.

TestFlight will now offer automatic updates

If you are one of the active users who do not expect a full-fledged version of the software and are willing to test beta versions and unfinished projects, we have great news for you. You must have been bothered by the constant necessity of manual updates, which consisted in the fact that you had to download an additional file for each published update of the given application. But that is over from now on, as Apple took fans' complaints into account and rushed TestFlight version 3.0.0, where we will see automatic updates. In practice, this means that the package will download itself the moment the developers release a new version into the world, without you having to search for an update on the Internet. There is also the correction of several annoying bugs that have plagued TestFlight for quite a long time. After all, the last version was released 3 months ago, and it looks like Apple has been working hard on development during this time.
