Coming Soon: MacMost's macOS Sierra Course!

Apple will launch macOS Sierra next week, the latest operating system for Macs. I'm preparing to update my "Video Guide" series, this time as an online course. This will be a complete course covering all of the major aspects of using macOS such as the Finder, basic apps, System Preferences, iCloud Drive and much more. I hope to make the course available next week. If you would like to be notified as soon as the course is available, click this link and I'll send you an email when the course is ready. -- Gary


iOS 10's Home app allows you to control devices like lamps, lights, thermostats, locks and other things. Setup is very easy if you are using a device that conforms to Apple's HomeKit standard. Your iOS device will quickly recognize the device without any configuration in advance. Then you can even set up schedules and actions for your devices.

The iOS 10 Lock Screen gives you access to the camera and to a new Widgets screen. On this widgets screen you can place various widgets from apps installed on your device, such as the Calendar, Mail, Music, Siri, and so on. You can edit the widgets on the screen and reorder them. Many third-party apps include widgets as well, and some have more than one widget you can add.

A new feature in iOS 10 lets you remove stock apps like Weather, Maps, Reminders and even Mail. All of these are now available as free downloads in the iOS app store, so you can add them back easily if you delete them accidentally. So if you don't care about the stock market, you can finally get rid of that Stocks app on your iPhone now.
