The night before the Apple Watch launched, April 23, I found myself at a gas station, filling up my Subaru. I had left my iPhone in the car's cupholder, so while I stood there listening to the gas rush into the tank, I wasn't looking at Instagram or Twitter, or checking my notifications, or taking another stab at a tricky level in Two Dots. I just stood there.
Sometimes it's the small things that make the biggest difference.
Team Macworld has been using Apple Music and digging it (for the most part) for more than a week, but that doesn't mean Apple's streaming service is flawless. There are some glaring glitches, irritating features, and bizarre design choices that have us collectively shaking our heads, even as we jam out to the curated playlists and enlist Siri to be our personal DJ.
Let's talk about Apple Watch feature bloat, and the lessons Apple apparently didn't learn from Samsung's smartwatch mistakes.
It's faster all around, easier to see in the sun, and the battery lasts just as long.
As time ticks by and Apple CEO Tim Cook drops his latest hint about new and upcoming products, it's time to start looking to the next generation of Apple's iPhone.

iOS 7 is a dramatic re-invention of Apple's mobile software that goes beyond mere additions and enhancements. Apple is changing the very look of iOS itself.
Here are some first-hand impressions from those of us who got to spend a little time with iOS 7 this week in San Francisco.
Like clockwork, Apple has released a new major version of its iOS mobile operating system every summer since 2008, and we expect 2013 to be no different. iOS 7 seems likely to take its bow at the company's annual Worldwide Developers Conference, which will be held June 10 through 14 in San Francisco.
Here are the core comments from Apple CEO Tim Cook's 'state of the union' earnings address.
The new Apple TV (generation 4) release date is a big question right now. In this article we explore some rumours and uncover some potential images of the new iMac. Read our New Apple TV release date, rumours and images article to find out more.
Apple CEO Tim Cook threw out a lot of numbers at the company's media event, but perhaps the most startling one was this: The company has sold more than 400 million iOS devices since the first iPhone debuted in 2007.
Apple laid months of event rumors and speculation to rest on Tuesday when it sent out official invitations to a special media presentation on September 12. Of course, now that we know for sure that an event is happening, the real speculation begins.
