On OSes 26, you'll be able to export your passwords, passkeys, and most of the data in your password manager to another compatible password manager. Your data is yours.

I built a small Swift Array Extension called “VibeSort” for the new iOS 26 Foundation Models:
(You’ll never have to guess again what areInIncreasingOrder actually means)
Just type what you want and the LLM will sort it out at runtime ;)

print("Original: \(array)")

YouTube automatically translates and synchronizes videos now. It’s super annoying and in the browser there is no way to turn it off, there is no way for me to say “I know English don’t translate” and if I switch settings to English, all my German videos will be translated with a horrific AI voice

Can any of my Apple friends please fix this bug: FB14082790
It’s been haunting us for over a year now.
And there has been ZERO feedback coming back 😭
I have provided a sample project to reproduce and a video explaining the bug.
I would even fly to Cupertino to help the team reproduce this.
