When you are looking for a MagSafe car mount, you usually have to make a hard choice right at the start of your shopping decisions. Do you want a vent mount or a dashboard mount? Vent mounts are great because they are easy to move between cars and avoid the need for adhesives on your car’s dash, but they can sometimes block your airflow. Dashboard mounts offer a more permanent feel but can be harder to get right.

Scosche decided to skip that debate entirely with the Scosche MagicMount Charge Pro, which includes both options in the box. I prefer the vent mount because I love helping keep my iPhone cool on summer trips, where it can overheat by letting my AC keep it cool while it’s keeping my car cold.

Over the last few weeks, I have talked a lot about shadow IT and how it is evolving. I recently did a webinar on AI as the new shadow IT, but there is another area Apple IT administrators need to consider: the web browser. A new report from Omdia, commissioned by Parallels, surveyed 400 IT and cybersecurity professionals and found that 68% of organizations are seeing an increase in browser-based security incidents. Since most enterprise SaaS apps are browser-based, it’s worth considering.

When Aqara announced the Doorbell Camera G400 supported Power over Ethernet, it immediately caught my attention. PoE isn’t for everyone, but if you want it, you’ll likely ignore any option that doesn’t include it. Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 is great as a fallback, but absolutely nothing beats the 24/7 stability of wired cable. The Aqara Doorbell Camera G400 delivers that stability, along with local AI detection and a tall aspect ratio designed to spot packages. Let’s break down exactly what this doorbell brings to Apple Home users.

When Apple introduced MagSafe, the immediate focus then and now has always been on wireless charging. Over the years, I have realized that some of the best aspects of the MagSafe ecosystem are not actually the charging aspect, but also the mounting capabilities. The ability to just snap your iPhone onto a magnetic surface and trust it to hold has opened up a whole new category of accessories. A perfect example of this is the Scosche MagicMount Flask. It takes an everyday item you already carry to the gym or the park and turns it into a highly functional iPhone mount.

Apple recently announced that the device management portion of its new Apple Business platform is now completely free. If you manage a fleet of Apple devices, this immediately caught your attention. It’s the first free device management system I can remember since Meraki’s System Manager. Giving small businesses a free tool to manage their Macs and iPhones is a huge win for the ecosystem. However, if you are an IT administrator looking at your current device management renewal and wondering if you can just cancel it and move everything to Apple, you need to pump the brakes a bit. Let’s look at why.

Xthings recently released the Ulticam IQ V2, touting it as the first Matter-certified AI security camera. It boasts an impressive list of features that includes Power over Ethernet, 4K resolution, and some nice Google Gemini AI integrations. Let’s take a closer look at what the Ulticam IQ V2 brings to the table and whether it is worth betting on future software updates.

I have tested dozens of MagSafe iPhone desk chargers, and a lot of them suffer from the same super-annoying flaw. Unless they are made of solid steel and weigh five pounds, they slide all over your desk when you try to grab your iPhone or tap the screen to check a notification. You’ll often have to hold the base down with one hand while pulling the iPhone off with the other. Scosche decided to tackle this problem in a completely different way with its new Qi2 home and office mount. Instead of relying on heavy metal bases, it uses a heavy-duty suction cup to securely attach to your desk or counter.

Apple Business Manager (and Apple School Manager) is foundational to the modern Apple IT management experience. With that said, if a Mac isn’t in it, device management is a different ballgame. You might have a fleet of Macs that were purchased through a consumer channel or inherited from a company merger. If you want them in Apple Business Manager so you can use Automated Device Enrollment, you will generally need to wipe the device. What if you don’t want to? That’s where add2abm comes into play.

Aqara just released the new Aqara W200 Thermostat Hub, featuring Matter 1.4 support and native integration with Apple’s new Adaptive Temperature functionality. These additions make it a compelling alternative to Nest for anyone wanting deep, system-level control within Apple Home.

My use of my iPhone has somewhat evolved over the years. I used to want to replicate everything that my Mac could do on my iPhone, but over time, I’ve looked to my Mac as the workhorse and my iPhone as a “cloud remote” to quickly do things on the go that take minimal effort and thought processing. Apple device management is one of those things. I don’t want to manage my entire database on my iPhone. I do, however, want to do a few things. That is where tools like PocketMDM come into play.

Whenever my family goes out of town, we have a dog sitter come by to check on our dogs. One challenge I always have is showing guests how to use our smart home. For our Level Lock Pro, I find it easier to just give them a fob or a physical key, since sharing a Home Key outside an iCloud family account is still a hassle. While sharing access to lights is possible, I find it much easier to use a product like the Onvis Smart Button instead.

I have tried many MagSafe wallets over the years, and I have yet to find the perfect one. After spending a few weeks with the Apple FineWoven wallet, I decided to swap to ESR’s five-card MagSafe wallet (in black). While the ESR option supports five cards, compared to the three you get with the FineWoven version, it is definitely much thicker. Even with the extra bulk, it has quickly become my current daily carry thanks to its separate ID slots and the ability to hold multiple cards.

I have been an audiobook fan for decades. I have had an Audible subscription since 2008 (before they were owned by Amazon), and I have listened to hundreds, if not thousands, of books during that time. A few years ago, I wrote about my process of taking cheap CD audiobooks from Amazon and combining them into M4B files to host on my Plex server. Once I discovered it was possible to put these files into Plex on my Mac Mini, it became my go-to audiobook setup for me. Paired with the Prologue app, it creates the ultimate listening experience that you own and control.

The need for highly reliable internet connectivity is a no brainer for enterprises, K through 12, healthcare, etc. Eero recently launched Eero Signal, a 4G LTE backup device that plugs into existing Eero routers to automatically keep homes and small businesses online during an ISP outage. A 5G version is on the way. With an Eero Plus subscription, 10GB of bandwidth per year is included, with options to upgrade to 100GB.
