In-The-NewsI did not expect for there to be so much to talk about this late in the year, but Apple’s huge iOS 16.2 release this past week gave us lots to discuss.  Brett and I start by talking about Freeform, Apple’s new whiteboard app, and we also discuss Apple Music Sing and other new features.  We also discuss European Union requirement that Apple allow alternate app stores and rumors of how Apple might do that.  We discuss the newest example of the iPhone 14 Emergency SOS via Satellite feature being used to save someone, and we also discuss a new iPhone mount for use with the Continuity Camera feature.

In our In the Know segment, Brett and I go deep on two new features.  Brett discusses a new feature in watch OS 9.2 that lets you sort your workouts, including a way to see your prior outdoor running or walking routes so that you can try to beat your own best time.  I discuss the somewhat complicated process of turning on Advanced Data Protection on your iPhone.  There are more steps than you might think, but you get a nice boost in security if you go through them.
