During this past week, we were able to look into the future—specifically, the future of iOS and macOS, as Apple released betas of updates to those operating systems. Apple also made news in other venues; check out the important ones in this slideshow. Just click on the link to get more information.
The big selling point of iOS 10.3 is a great new feature for AirPods owners, letting them locate a misplaced AirPod by firing up the Find My iPhone app and having the AirPods play a sound.

Apple was just granted a patent for “modular functional band links” for a wearable device by the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office.
