Apple generates a lot of news, and it can be hard to keep up.
* Apple's financial results
- Apple releases its earnings report. Unless you're a shareholder, Apple making an extra billion or two doesn't affect you at all. Numbers are so incomprehensibly vast, sometimes because it looks like the graph is about to change direction.
- The numbers were expected to be bad this time because of COVID-19, but it turns out the numbers were good - at least by comparison with the same quarter last year
* iPhone SE reviews are in
- This week saw the publication of Macworld's iPhone SE review, as well as Tech Advisors and the Guardian's.
* Things in this week
- Apple platforms are among the most secure you can get, but they're not perfect, and this week saw the emergence of several flaws and vulnerabilities that it's worth knowing about.
- There's a space-guzzling bug in macOS that's slightly less exciting that that sounds: it causes your photos to take up more gigabytes than they should, rather than consuming the solar system.
- A text message containing Sindhi text and an Italian flag emoji could crash your iPhone.
- And Google's Project Zero security team has discovered and published details of vulnerabilities in Apple's Image I/O. They've been patched.
