Welcome to #278 – a note from the editor

Hello again, Swipe readers!

There’s a lot to digest in the aftermath of Apple’s bonkers WWDC announcements, and this issue we’re doing just that. Head to Features for our view on how Apple Vision Pro may end up breathing new life back into the interfaces of iPhone and iPad.

With Apple granting beta access to all much earlier than usual this year, we’ve started writing up guides for the most exciting new features. Whether you’re risking an early beta or waiting for the public release, head to the How-To section for a look at some of our early favorites: contact posters, StandBy, and live stickers.

Of course, we haven’t even mentioned the cover story yet! This issue we’re exploring alternative music players once more. And I don’t mean apps that only play alt-rock – rather, apps you might want to consider using instead of Apple Music or Spotify. This refined selection has a solution for every need, whether you’re an avid mp3 hoarder, someone who loves listening to albums in full, or just someone who needs help choosing what to listen to.

All that and more in this latest Swipe – dig in, and we’ll see you next issue!
