The upcoming iOS 17 might take a big step towards sideloading

Apple has opposed sideloading apps on its devices ever since the inception of the iPhone, but that may be changing soon. In fact, according to Mark Gurman, a renowned Apple analyst, the next iOS 17 will enable just that. But don’t hold your breath, as this isn’t confirmed just yet.

Other than the entry-level 512GB 14-inch model of the new MacBook Pro, there are a few other solid discounts across Amazon and B&H Photo on other versions of the computer. With these deals listed below, you can save up to $250 on higher-end models, including the 16-inch size of the notebook.

Apple Card Savings Account Available Starting Today With 4.15% Interest Rate

Apple today announced that the long-awaited Apple Card Savings feature is available starting today with an initial APY of 4.15%. The savings account has no fees, no minimum deposits, and no minimum balance requirements.



The feature allows Apple Card users to open a high-yield savings account from Goldman Sachs in the Wallet app on their iPhone and start earning interest on their Daily Cash balance. Users can also earn interest on personal funds deposited into the savings account through a linked bank account, or from their Apple Cash balance.

To open a savings account in the Wallet app, users will tap on the Apple Card, tap on the circle with three dots at the top of the screen, tap Daily Cash, and select Set Up Savings. Once the account is set up, all Daily Cash received from that point on will be automatically deposited into it and start earning interest. If they prefer, users can choose to have Daily Cash added to their Apple Cash balance instead at any time.

Apple Card Savings requires an iPhone with iOS 16.4 or later. Apple has published a support document with additional details about the feature.

Apple Card remains available in the U.S. only, so the savings account is likewise limited to U.S. residents who are 18 years of age or older.
