We are 30 minutes away from the Scary Fast Apple event.

I came across an Apple event bingo card from the Basic Apple Guy blog.

Are there any items on the list you don't expect to happen or 100% sure will happen? Is there anything missing? Let's get the conversation started.

We’ll be posting live commentary starting 30 minutes before the event begins on Monday, October 30th.

Come join us on Monday to discuss any last minute predictions and see if the Mac focused event is indeed “scary”.

Are there any features in iOS 17.2 that you’re looking forward to?

With iOS 17.1 and watchOS 10.1 being released today, for those that own an Apple Watch Series 9, you can now use the new Double Tap feature.

To check out the options, go to the Apple Watch app and select Gestures/Double Tap.

Release Notes: Double tap gesture can be used to perform the primary action in notifications and most apps so you can answer a call, play and pause music, stop a timer, and more (Available on Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2)

With the 22nd anniversary of the iPod having occurred on October 23rd, which was your first iPod?

Here’s a picture of mine. I have it, along with several other previous models.

With the introduction of iOS 17 last month, there’s a new feature that some may overlook. Did you know that verification codes can be automatically deleted from Messages or email?

Here’s how to make sure it’s turned on.

Go to Settings / Passwords / Password Options

Under Verification Codes, turn on “Cleanup Automatically”.

UPDATE: Appleinsider states that a Larger 32-inch iMac Pro is rumored to hit store shelves in late 2024 https://appleinsider.com/articles/23/10/22/larger-32-inch-imac-pro-rumored-to-hit-store-shelves-in-late-2024?utm_medium=rss

——Orginal Post—— I didn’t see this coming, but I guess a press release is all that would be needed for minor updates to the iMac and perhaps other models.

Is anyone looking forward to a possible M3 iMac?

Hello everyone. With more than 15k subscribers, I'm sure the Apple community has some great experiences to share with others. My question this week is, "What was the most clever way you’ve ever used an Apple product to solve a problem?"

Hopefully, this will fix the overheating some were having.

For those that ordered a new iPhone or Apple Watch, this thread will let you share with everyone your excitement of getting a new device.

Which device did you end up ordering, what color, and what are you most excited to try out first?

It’s almost that time! With the Apple event happening tomorrow, we’ll use this mega thread to talk about expectations, predictions, and anything else related to the big event.

Tomorrow, we’ll have a live event thread to discuss each announcement as it happens.

A big thank you to Antsomnia for their banner submission.

Since we only had one submission, obviously voting on the best one won’t be needed. The new banner will be uploaded later on today, along with giving credit to Antsomina in the sidebar for the design.😊
