The iPhone Life Podcast

In this episode, David and Donna dive into the most significant keynote in years: Apple's AI Siri is finally here — it has its own app, on-screen awareness, and is woven throughout the OS (with help from Google’s Gemini). Plus, Tim Cook's final WWDC as CEO marks the end of an era.

In episode 223, Donna shares why she decided to take a chance on the iPhone Air. . .  and why she regrets her choice! She also shares why she’s keeping the AirPods Pro 3 (with Live Translation, a heart rate sensor, and plus improved battery and noise cancellation). David and Donna also ponder Apple’s quiet product release in October—why is the new M5 MacBook Pro display only 14 inches? Does the Vision Pro’s upgraded chip and redesigned strap make it more comfortable to wear?

Does this year’s crop of new iOS 26 features make up for last year’s failed promises of an AI-powered Siri? In episode 221 of the iPhone Life Podcast, Donna and Cullen report back on favorite features after a month of testing iOS 26, from the Liquid Glass redesign to AI calling features like Live Translation and Hold Assist.

In Episode 219, David and Cullen discuss the rumors around WWDC 2025 and the announcement of iOS 19, discuss the Trump Administration’s tariffs and whether you should upgrade your iPhone before they get more expensive, and lots more.

In episode 217, David and Donna share apps and gear to help you hit your 2025 goals around nutrition, sleep, fitness, and beyond. They’ll also share a rundown of the top 20 devices Apple pundits are predicting for 2025 and the buyer’s guide gear they can’t stop using.

The reviews are in! Donna shares her praise and critiques of the iPhone 16 Pro Max, from the Camera Control button to the 48MP Ultra Wide camera, to the A18 chip, and more. David shares his hands-on review of the AirPods 4, and why he thinks they’re the headphones for almost everyone.

Should you install the iOS 18 public beta? In episode 213 of the iPhone Life Podcast, Donna and Cullen hand test new features, from Apple Intelligence, to an all-new Passwords app, to a revamped Control Center.
