You've skimmed Rene's review, but you want the good stuff, the fancy stuff, the stuff you can use RIGHT NOW. Okay, iMore readers: You got it. Here are all of the great features you'll want to check out in watchOS 2.
The Phone and iPad keyboard will switch between uppercase and lowercase letters when you tap the shift key. This is meant to help you differentiate when you are typing in caps or not, but some people prefer only seeing uppercase letters. If that sounds like you, you can easily disable the keyboard from switching cases.
If you play a sport or enjoy an activity that involves sweat and/or some sort of object brushing up against the screen of the Apple Watch, chances are you've accidentally ended a calculated workout too soon. It's annoying, and thankfully there's an easy way to prevent it: Locking the Apple Watch's screen so that nothing but a Force Press will wake it from slumber. Here's how.
With watchOS 2, you can now control all your HomeKit devices with the Apple Watch. Here's how you can go about doing that!

We've written our official review of iOS 9 and given you an overview of the operating system. "But Serenity," readers have asked, "What are the features you're actually using?" Well, here you are, questioneers: My top 20 iOS 9 features I use daily.
While many websites in this day and age have embraced responsive design, which rescales a full webpage to properly fit on smaller screens, there are still a pesky number who insist on serving "slimmed down" mobile versions to iPhone and iPad users. Thankfully, you can disregard the website owner's wishes and get whatever version you prefer with a quick Safari trick.
If you've recently upgraded to iOS 9, you may find that you can no longer sync your beautiful new Notes app with your Mac. This is because on OS X Yosemite, your Notes app is still the same sad, pre-attachment version that you had in iOS 8—and they can't talk to each other. But don't worry, friends: Instead, you can use iCloud.com for your syncing needs.
The pain of an increasing inbox count can be felt many a day here at iMore Boston HQ, but thanks to a tip from this enterprising soul on Reddit, I can now entertain the glorious thought of having it all vanish into the digital wind. Yes, thanks to iOS 9, you too can delete ALL your email from a given inbox with just three taps. (You can also mark everything as read, but that's less fun...

Rene's put together a 20,000-word behemoth of a review, but if you don't have the time and you just want to know what's new, we've got your back. Here's an overview of what's changed for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the latest version of iOS.
Based on a screenshot from Apple's developer guidelines, there are some folks up in arms about the Apple TV's 200MB limit for app bundles (the app you download from the Apple TV's App Store). The good news is, 200MB is just the size limit for your initial App Store download. Once you open the app, you can download up to 2GB more per app, with up to 20GB of other resources available in...
The rumors are true: There's a new Apple TV flying in, soon to be breathing life into living rooms everywhere. Here's everything you need to know about Apple's next step into television.
Here's a quick runthrough of the new Apple TV—in photos!
The third-generation Apple TV may be sticking around after today's announcement as a low-cost entry to the Apple TV world, but at a cost: It won't be getting any of the tvOS features shown during today's event.
