Apple’s new devices and software debates are driving iOS discussion

Waveform discussed iOS 27’s alarm behavior and its new ability to control alarm and system volume independently.[1]

Waveform also covered Apple’s iOS 27 re-announcement and debated software features including the action button, shortcuts, and interface changes for the Duo.[2][3]

Big Technology and Bloomberg Tech discussed how iOS could support Apple’s foldable devices, including a hybrid iOS-iPadOS design, phone-number transfers, and ergonomic control changes.[4][5][6]

TBPN praised iOS subscriptions for making cancellations one click, while another TBPN discussion criticized iOS Safari because some forms did not render properly.[7][8]

Other shows mentioned iOS in narrower contexts: police access to locked iPhones, limits on social-media controls, app availability, software comparisons, and open-versus-closed ecosystems.[9][10][11]
