Third-Party Gadgets Bring Find My Tracking
to Wallets, Chargers, and More

Thanks to the AirTag (see “Apple’s AirTag Promises to Help You Find Your Keys,” 20 April 2021), those of us who tend to leave our car keys in random locations no longer have to ransack the house to find them. Now their whereabouts are instantly revealed courtesy of an AirTag on a keychain. You can even see the AirTag on a map, if you leave it at the park or in a taxi, thanks to the Find My network that leverages more than a billion in-use Apple devices to relay an AirTag’s location wherever in the world it might be.

But where’s the Find My luggage lock? The Find My-enabled charger? A Find My keychain in a different form factor?

These gadgets are available from third-party manufacturers. This is another familiar pattern. Apple unveils new technologies, such as MagSafe, and releases a variety of accessories to build excitement. But over time, it withdraws from the field, leaving it to third-party makers to hoist their own banners.

So it has been with Find My devices.

Apple’s AirTags are indispensable for tracking down a missing purse or wayward suitcase, but the large lozenge shape isn’t ideal for all Find My scenarios. Third-party accessory makers have stepped in with a range of Find My trackers—Julio Ojeda-Zapata looks at a wallet, several wallet cards, ...

What Anthropic’s Mythos and Project Glasswing
Mean for Your Apple Devices

Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI chatbot, made two security announcements that were shocking for many but seen as inevitable by those of us working in AI security. First, it announced Mythos Preview, a new, non-public AI model that turns out to be startlingly good at finding security flaws in software. The second was Project Glasswing, Anthropic’s program for getting that capability into the hands of the companies best positioned to fix those flaws before anyone else can exploit them. Apple is one of those companies.

Apple Business — a new platform that includes key services companies need to run and grow — will be available April 14.

Apple today announced Apple Business, a new all-in-one platform that includes key services companies need to effortlessly manage devices, reach more customers, equip team members with essential apps and tools, and get support from experts to run and grow efficiently and securely. Apple Business features built-in mobile device management, helping businesses easily configure employee groups, device settings, security, and apps with Blueprints to quickly get started. In addition, customers can now set up business email, calendar, and directory services with their own domain name for seamless and elevated communication and collaboration. And Apple Business can help millions of companies grow their reach and connect with local customers across Apple Maps, Mail, Wallet, Siri, and more, including a new option coming this summer that will enable businesses in the U.S. and Canada to place local ads in Maps during key search and discovery moments. Apple Business will be available starting Tuesday, April 14, in more than 200 countries and regions.

Pricing and Availability

Starting April 14, Apple Business will be available as a free service in the U.S. and 200+ countries and regions to new and existing users of Apple Business Connect, Apple Business Essentials, and Apple Business Manager. For more information, visit business.apple.com/preview.

Ads on Apple Maps will be available to businesses starting this summer in the U.S. and Canada. For more information, visit ads.apple.com/maps.

Apple Business Essentials, Apple Business Manager, and Apple Business Connect will no longer be available once Apple Business launches. Business Essentials customers will no longer be charged their monthly service fee for device management after April 14. Existing Business Connect data — including claimed locations, place card information, photos, organization information, account details, and more — will automatically migrate to Apple Business at launch.

The Apple Business companion app, along with email, calendar, and directory features, will require iOS 26, iPadOS 26, or macOS 26.

Customers in the U.S. can purchase additional iCloud storage up to 2TB per user, starting at $0.99 per user per month. AppleCare+ for Business coverage is available per device or per user, starting at $6.99 per month, or $13.99 per month per user for up to three devices.

Apple to celebrate
50 years of thinking different

founded April 1st, 1976

In the coming weeks, Apple and its global community will celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary, recognizing the creativity, innovation, and impact that people around the world have made possible with Apple technology.

“Thinking different has always been at the heart of Apple,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “It’s what has driven us to create products that empower people to express themselves, to connect, and to create something wonderful. As we celebrate 50 years, we are deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey and who continues to inspire what comes next.”
From the beginning, Apple has believed that technology alone is not enough. It is the intersection of technology and the liberal arts, guided by a human touch, that makes its products meaningful. That belief continues to shape Apple’s work today, from advancing Apple Intelligence, to creating products and services designed with privacy at their core, built for accessibility and created with the planet in mind.

As Apple celebrates this milestone, the company remains focused on the future and on continuing to think different in the years ahead. Apple will continue to innovate in groundbreaking silicon, life-enriching products, transformative software, and services that improve people’s lives, while deepening its commitments to environmental responsibility, education, and community impact around the world.
