(Brooks Kraft/Apple Inc. via AP)Apple on Monday provided a glimpse at upcoming software changes designed to make the iPhone even easier to use and announced underlying hardware changes to its line of Mac computers.
In recognition of the pandemic, Apples next iPhone operating system will include an option to put a face mask on a personalized emoji.
Upgraded software for the Apple Watch will detect when wearers wash their hands.
Apple also said its Mac computers will begin shifting to the company's own processor chips and away from the Intel chips that have powered those computers for 15 years.
