Apple releases slew of software updates 

One week after its reveal of new iPad Pros, Apple TVs, and all-new iMacs with the M1 processor, Apple has started rolling out software updates to all its major devices. The most relevant is of course iOS 14.5 for the iPhone with various security features as well as the ability to unlock the iPhone with an Apple Watch (because Face ID is useless with masks on), and a more diverse choice of Siri voices.

New Emoji are also available in time for spring, including various types of couple emoji and a wider range of skin tones. Apple Maps gets more interactive with the ability to report an incident a la Waze. AirTag support is also an important update which allows some devices to work with Apple's new Find My devices.  iPad OS, Watch OS, TV OS, and Mac OS all received significant updates available now.
