In this episode, Don takes a looks at some of the new features of watchOS 5 and demonstrates that you don't need an Apple Watch Series 4 to have a refreshed Apple Watch experience.

Initially, we take a look at the changes using an Apple Watch Series 3, followed by a brief look at Apple Watch Series 4 and some of its new features.

Spend some time organising your Apple Watch watch faces, complications and Dock and boost your productivity.

After a time spent using the Apple Watch, you become aware of the Apps you most commonly access. This tip video shows you how to customise your watch faces, complications and the dock to have these most commonly used apps available to you.

Taking screenshots on iOS devices is a snap in iOS 11. There are also some handy annotation features to mark up your screenshots and share them with people. You can also discard screenshots easily if you don't want to keep them indefinitely.

If you do wish to save them, the Photos app stores them in a special Screenshots album for easy retrieval. You can even take screenshots from Apple Watch and they sync automatically to your iPhone and iPad via the iCloud Photo Library, and can also be marked up or shared via the Photos app.

I cover all this and more in this week's tip.

watchOS 4 is Apple's latest update to the operating system powering the Apple Watch.

In this week's episode, we take a look at some of the new features and changes to the already-familiar apps on the Apple Watch.

One of the top reasons for using an Apple Watch is to motivate you to track your activity with the Activity app.

This tip video takes you through some hints and tips on optimising your usage of the Activity app. Including such things as:

• Using Apple Watch faces with the Activity & Workout apps

• Easy ways to start workouts

• Bypassing the Stand Up reminders and still achieving your goals

• Adding in missed workouts manually

A quick update on some of the new features in WatchOS 3.2 including the new "Theatre Mode", a new lock sound when unlocking your Mac and a peek at some new scrolling capabilities using the touchpad on the Apple TV remote.

Time for an update on Apple Photos across the board.

Apple continue to improve and update Apple Photos with some brand new features. 



In this episode we take a look at the improvements to Apple Photos on macOS, iOS, Apple Watch and Apple TV.

Continuing with our look at Apples latest OS for the iPhone and iPad, I also take a look at some of the new features of the dramatically enhanced watchOS 3.

Apple have significantly improved the Apple Watch with the release of watchOS 3 by increasing performance and removing the friction points that were so evident in the first releases of watchOS. Performance is drastically improved and the usability of the Apple Watch has been transformed - so much so that unless you really need GPS or waterproofing, upgrading to a series 2 Apple Watch is optional.

In this episode I explore some of the changes made to enhance the functionality of the Apple Watch and demonstrate some of the new constructs for accessing and navigating Apple Watch apps.

With the recent release of both iOS 10 and macOS Sierra, this episode covers some of the new and updated features of both operating systems, as well as some handy tips on migrating your iPhone and Apple Watch to new devices.

With the Apple ecosystem being tightly integrated across all platforms, one update has an impact on all the others. Last month Apple released updates to OS X, iOS, watchOS and tvOS.

In this episode, I take a look at most of the major changes and enhancements across the board.

Continuing with our look at iOS 9, this week I cover the new multitasking feature Picture in Picture, the brand new News app and take a first look at watchOS 2.

Continuing with our look at iOS 9, this week I cover changes to Mobile Safari, the controversial topic of Content Blockers and take a look at the new Slide Over and Split View multitasking features on the iPad.

It’s iOS 9 release day so I’m issuing the first part of a multipart series on iOS 9 early. 

In this introductory episode, I take a look at some of the new features including a look at the new Notes app and using the new software keyboard. 

I’ll be covering all of the new iOS 9 and watchOS 2 features over the coming weeks.

One of the major features of the Apple Watch is communication. 

In this episode I take a brief look at three of the main communications apps - Messages, Phone and Digital Touch.

Not surprisingly, Apple Watch has a number of time related apps!

As well as the customisable Watch faces, there are also separate apps for Alarms, Time and Stopwatch. 

In this episode, I run through the various functions and features of all three apps, plus a workaround for Podcast fans to sync Podcasts to your Apple Watch.

Apple Watch gives you access to the next 7 days of events from your iCloud calendar. Review the week in List view or drill in to a more detailed Today view. 

Get directions to your appointments, contact event organisers, find events using Siri or even create single events or recurring events using your Apple Watch. 

One of the most surprisingly useful aspects of the Apple Watch is its focus on Activity and Health. 

In this episode I take a look at the Activity Rings and the Workout App on the Apple Watch, along with a peek at the Activity App and the Health App on the iPhone.

The Apple Watch is here! Well so says Apple's web site, but it's not here for everyone.

Regardless, I was able to order as soon as they were released and thankfully, I was one of the lucky ones to receive the Apple Watch on launch day. The least I could do was to create an Introduction to Apple Watch tutorial whilst I get to grips with the device.
