An odd rumor led to premature calls of Apple Vision Pro's death, rumors of AI and Home Hubs abound, and Apple's App Store troubles continue on the AppleInsider Podcast.
AppleInsider Managing Editor Mike Wuerthele joins host Wesley Hilliard as a guest this week to catch up on CEO transition news. It's clear that the silly coverage surrounding the upcoming transition is already becoming exhausting.
The Apple vs Epic trial continues to be an ongoing event that seems to have no end. This time, Apple has to go to the Supreme Court and Circuit Courts at once.
Your hosts dive into the odd Apple Vision Pro rumor that said Apple had given up on the product. They discuss why this likely isn't the case and how the Vision product line will continue forward.
There's also a lot to discuss around incoming products like the Home Hub and security cameras. Wes asks Mike if Apple makes too many products.
The show concludes with a discussion around WWDC and Apple's AI efforts.
