615: I Have a Case, and I Pray

Our experiences with tap‑to‑exchange features like phone payments, what we truly consider ephemeral online, a recent tech frustration that hampered productivity, and opinions on children's shoes with hidden AirTag slots.

Whether we buy AppleCare, how we clear out our inboxes, our smartwatch band habits, and travel tips for coming to America.

Our MMORPG experience and enjoyment; how we pick restaurants or cafés on the road—Google Maps, Yelp, etc.; the tech we never leave home without and if it's more or less than before; and the arcade game we'd love to own as an original cabinet.

Apple's beta season commences, Jack Dorsey's new chat app, how we wake up in the morning, and whether we have security cameras.

Apple and Perplexity rumors, the F1 coupon fiasco, our thoughts on device battery health, and whether Apple should build a chatbot.

Our interest in drones and how we’d use them, household standards for wearing Bluetooth headphones, whether we install OS betas and on which devices, and the rare app or service where we don’t mind seeing ads.

Jony Ive and Sam Altman's new AI hardware joint, whether we play games on our phones, the last time we used styluses, and our tech pet peeves.

Fortnite's return to the App Store, the tech we now hate, how we feel about CarPlay, and what our homescreens look like.

The features only we use, indie Mac apps we love, whether we have robotic vacuums, and technology that's recently improved our lives.

Feelings on the Epic v. Apple ruling and Kindle’s new purchase option, whether we report bugs to small devs or stay silent, how we balance a single or multi-device Mac setup, and one feature we’re hoping to see at the upcoming WWDC.
