If your iPhone 14 won't connect to Wi-Fi or your iPad suddenly stopped automatically connecting to known networks such as your home Wi-Fi, don't worry!

It’s more likely that a setting on your device is the culprit, but it’s easy to fix. Let’s learn how to change or reset your Wi-Fi settings so that your device will connect automatically to Wi-Fi again.

Apple has just unveiled the Apple Watch Series 6, an iPad (8th generation) and a new iPad Air. New iPhones are expected to be announced later this fall.

The only way to get your SIM card locked is by failing to enter your SIM PIN correctly three times in a row. Because of this, it is very important that you do not try to guess your SIM PIN or PUK code. Let's take a look first at how to keep your SIM card from locking, and then how to unlock your SIM.

Apple’s fall event historically brings exciting announcements. In years past, this installment in the tech giant’s series of annual events has brought key information about upcoming product releases, specifically for new iPhones and Apple Watches.

We are all doing more videoconferencing these days, so the Avantree Aria Me ($149.99) arrived at the perfect time. This is a desktop-oriented headphone for the office that can also travel well. It's ideal for the office because of the clever charging stand that is included. The headphones rest on the stand and charge, giving you one less thing to worry about. When traveling, you can use the microUSB cable to charge the headphones directly. I would have preferred USB-C, similar to Apple's iPad Pro, so there would be one less type of cable to carry.

Besides being able to translate words, phrases, and conversations, the Translate function of iOS 14 also offers translations of whole web pages on Safari. This is a great function for when you're traveling and the default language on your browser and webpages are a language you aren't proficient in, or if you just happen to stumble across something you don't understand while browsing the internet. Turns out, it's very easy to translate a webpage to English on your iPhone, so let's take a look at how.


Going to your library of songs in Apple Music and hitting Shuffle can be a freeing experience when you don't want to limit yourself to one album, artist, or playlist, but few things ruin a mood quite like an unexpected Christmas song popping up on your playlist.

It can be frustrating, though, when we expect a picture we took to be in our camera roll only to find it's only in the Note where we originally took the pictures. Here how to save Notes app pictures to your Camera Roll in iOS 14.

The new App Library is arguably one of the best things about iOS 14. It sorts your apps automatically and enables you to search for them alphabetically or with a Search bar, keeping you from scrolling through page after page of apps, looking for the right one. Best of all, you can organize your iPhone Home screen even further by downloading apps to the app library only, instead of having every new download appear on your Home screen. Let's take a look at how.
