After follow-up about feelings, Ticci explains what's going on with links to previously-made Shortcuts and Stephen marks 20 years of OS X. Then, Myke leads a focus group about the future of Apple in the home and the guys all inspect a task manager that has recently popped up on one of their home screens.
Stephen is accused of flip-flopping, while Myke has updated some firmware. Federico has reviewed a new iPad desktop stand and then the three descend into a Round Robin of iPhone features that wouldn't exist if Apple was starting over in 2021.
What's follow-up and what's a topic? Why has Apple chickened out with a change in iOS 14.5? Who wants a new iPad Pro? How many secrets have been kept between the co-hosts? Is this an annoying way to write a show description?
Myke tries to get through some iPhone rumors but the others keep joking around about model names. Meanwhile, there's big news for a couple of iOS apps. Stephen needs to deal with the problem brewing in his photos library and Federico goes missing for a brief time.
This week, Federico gets what he wants, but also doesn't. Myke tries out Hey, but only kinda. Also, are there new apps anymore?
This week, Stephen refuses to be pigeonholed, Federico talks about how MagSafe could be used on new accessories and Myke doesn't want to talk about folding iPhones, but then does. Also on the list of topics: failing Apple watches, #GreenGate and blankets.
Everyone's a real Federico, but only Stephen could disrupt the show document in such a profoundly useless way. Myke takes on the form of those around him. Topics include MacBook Pro batteries, Spotify and Siri getting cozy, the iPhone 12 mini and more.
This week, the guys review CARROT Weather 5, dream up new health devices for Apple to make and dive into the new iOS 14.5 beta. Also: Myke won't wear an anklet, Federico has words for certain drivers and Stephen files feedback about the Reminders app.
This week, Myke has a theory, Stephen has a crush and Federico has opinions on olives. Also: a discussion about Tweetbot 6 and what makes app subscriptions worth it.
This week, the guys plan the WWDC Olympics, talk about what's inside the AirPods Max and what the future of the Mac Pro may look like. Lastly, a report about folding iPhones is considered.
This week, the guys gather to discuss Apple's new Racial Equity and Justice Initiatives, some things at CES that caught their eyes and how they feel about the Apple Watch.
2020 is over. Products have been released, notches have been measured and an Annual Chairman has been named. As if that wasn't enough, the 2021 Rickies have been etched into a Google Doc for all time.
This week, the guys walk down memory lane, re-visiting the top tech stories of 2020. It was ... quite the year.
The AirPods Max have arrived in Memphis, London and Rome, so the guys give their impressions of Apple's newest product after talking about iOS 14.3, the post office and more.
This week, Stephen cleans out the follow-up folder, while Myke is reading Tumblr. Magnets, feelings and breathing are all discussed. Then, Federico dives into the AirPods Max announcement.
This week, Apple is handing out awards, Federico has a new iPhone charger on the way, Myke meant to try an app and Stephen tried reinstalling macOS. Oh, and Salesforce bought Slack.
There's a lot of follow-up this week, then conversations about company retreats, Mac OS 9, password management, MagSafe and the Mac App Store. Then, Federico talks through his new email system. Myke and Stephen have feelings about it.
It's a busy week on Connected. Stephen and Myke talk about their HomePod minis and M1 Macs, and Federico explains what's going on with iOS 14.3 and App Store revenue changes. Merri Hackett joins Federico and Myke to talk about her experience with the iPhone 12 mini, and they decide they'd rather Stephen just didn't come back. And Myke finally reviews tvOS 14.
Apple has announced the first batch of Macs running on its own silicon, so the boys are judging yet another set of Rickies. Will Federico's dual-title fall? Will Myke get his Ricky? Did Stephen make a mistake having six Flexies?
Stephen returns to his co-hosts to hold the third Apple Event Rickies in as many months. (If there's not Mac news next week, everyone is in trouble.)
Stephen is not here this week, but that doesn't stop the Europeans from discussing headphones, wireless charging, new app updates, and the iPhone 12 Pro.
Reviews have landed for the iPhone 12 and iPad Air. The trio talk through the coverage, including Federico's iPad Air article. Also: Stephen asks for help with a problem, and Myke is very excited about how gold phones are made.
The dust is settling from Apple's iPhone 12 event and out of the haze steps a Keynote Chairman. Also discussed: MagSafe's return and trustworthy friends.
In the blink of an eye, another round of Rickies is here, this time for Apple's October event.
Apple is on the verge of releasing new emoji, so it is time for Federico to try to guess their names.
Federico is using Base64 to make wallpapers, Myke's iPad mini is out of space and Stephen is upset about Apple's new GMT watch face. Also discussed: what iOS 14 is doing to our home screens and what others are doing with widgets.
The Rickies and Flexies have been judged. There is a winner and a loser. A donation has been made. What's inside an avocado has been discovered. That, and a lot more this week as the guys unpack Apple's September 15th event.
Apple has announced an event for next week, so the guys deleted everything in their show planning document to make room for their Picks, Rickies and Flexies. Also: Federico has reached acceptance, Stephen's plumbing is fixed and Myke has trouble remembering a quote.
September is here, and with it, a new avalanche of Apple rumors. The guys talk about the iPhone 12, new iPads and over-ear headphones. Then, an in-depth conversation about iOS 14's release date and what the future could bring to the Apple Watch.
Apple and Epic continue to fight; we continue to have opinions. Wireless chargers continue to be released, but Apple doesn't have an option. iOS betas are appearing at an increasing rate, and Federico has anxiety.
