Apple privacy, Qualcomm & iPhone 5G, Facebook and more on the AppleInsider Podcast

This week on the AppleInsider Podcast, Victor and William talk about Apple's view of privacy, and can't resist mentioning Facebook in contrast. William is looking forward to 5G, but can't shake the feeling that Victor is trying to sell him an iPhone 11.

AppleInsider editor Victor Marks and writer William Gallagher discuss:

How last week's mention of accessibility problems has prompted debate with listeners
We've heard rumors of the iPhone getting 5G in 2020, but now Qualcomm's CFO has made it almost official by alluding to it in financial statements
Also following last week's discussions, William has bought a pair of AirPods Pro and wants to tell you that it's true, they are superb.
Apple's Health app now includes medical records for VA users
Apple has also revamped its Privacy website and we trace back how long Apple has been championing privacy, which turns out to be somewhat longer than Facebook has.
Each year we look to see what's new in the Apple Watch, but in future, it might be less the Watch itself and more the bands, the straps, where we'll see innovative new technology.
How many iPhone SE2 sales could there be? Given that Apple hasn't even admitted it's making one, still there are estimates that it will sell between 20 and 30 million.
When it comes to quality, Apple TV+ is the best — it has the highest bitrate of streaming 4K of all the services
More shows are coming to Apple TV+ and one, Hala, is briefly debuting in theaters first
HomePass is one favorite app that we mention this week. You can use it to gather all HomeKit codes in one place and keep a record of them.
And ZippyCal gives a different view of your daily calendar. It's an unusual 12 hour view of the whole day.
