While Apple announced back in February that Apple Park would be ready for employees to begin moving in by April, the site still appears to be more in construction mode and it’s unclear what Apple staff if any is actually already working at the new campus.

The Alexa iPhone app can now be used completely hands-free — although it does need a little help from Siri to do so… It was always a little ironic that you could use the wake-word “Alexa” to activate Echo speakers and other Alexa-powered devices, while the iPhone app required you to touch a button to issue a voice command. Engadget reports that’s now been fixed in the latest version of the free app....

A notable omission from the iBooks library has been Harry Potter, the most successful literary book series. JK Rowling, the author of Harry Potter, has kept eBook rights exclusive to her own website until today. This morning, Apple announced that all seven of the books are finally available to buy in the iBooks app to be read on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Jetpack Joyride is an arcade running (or in this case, flying) game similar to the likes of Temple Run. The hero of the game, Barry Steakfries, is propelled by tapping on the screen once or several times depending on how high you want him to go. With game controls this simple, it’s hard not to play over and over again. The object of the game is to steer your way through a laboratory riding a jetpack, making sure to avoid getting zapped by electric rods while collecting coins and tokens along the way....

Upfront costs range from nothing on some of the Sky and Virgin tariffs to £190 on one O2 one....

And next. To be a tech employee is to be coveted and cosseted. To quit, however, is to be shunned. You are, after all, causing a problem for your bosses – and offering a reflection of their management skills. That, at least, was always my impression. Yet I was recently assaulted by a curiously uplifting tale from, of all curious uplifting companies: Microsoft. Ben Armstrong, group program manager of Microsoft’s Azure Kubernetes Service, was so proud of his company that he had to deposit the story in everyone’s most pride-filled arena: Twitter....

Skype seems to be having a little difficulty at present figuring out whether it wants to be a business service or a consumer one. After recently adding Slack-like notifications, mentions and more, it is now adding Snapchat-style photo filters. As seems obligatory for app updates these days, the filters claim to be AI-powered … Don’t get too attached to any of them, though: Skype says that available filters will be ‘always changing,’ not just for special occasions like holidays, but also on different days of the week....

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will “probably” receive a season 5 renewal at ABC for Fall 2017. ABC debuted the first TV offshoot from the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2012 with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and while the series premiere received record-breaking ratings, the early episodes of season 1 were largely criticized. Then, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. aired its Captain America: The Winter Soldier tie-in, and the show steadily became more well received among critics and fans alike....

I took delivery of my shiny new, and unusually cheap, new toys from Apple this morning. First impressions of AirTag are very good indeed – accessories, less so.

On the accessory side, I opted for Apple’s keyring plus one baggage tag … First impressions of AirTag: Look and feel There was no real surprise in the look and feel of the AirTags themselves – they are very much as I’d expected from Apple’s photos and description....
