Starting on the journey of switching Mobile Device Management (MDM) vendors can often feel like navigating to Mordor to destroy the one ring. The very thought will likely create images of endless spreadsheets, painstaking manual work, and the ever-looming fear of the chance of breaking something and hurting productivity. Changing MDM providers is hardly anyone’s idea of a fun project. However, sometimes it needs to be. If you’re starting on that process, you might want to consider MacOnboardingMate.

Last week, I looked at the state of HomeKit Secure Video. While I agree that it will take a lot of work to meet users’ needs in 2024, I also agree that it’s still the best way for privacy-focused people to use smart home cameras. The Eve Cam is one of the best cameras on the market for HomeKit Secure video.

In this episode of Apple @ Work, I talk with Jeetu Patel from Cisco about Webex on the Apple TV and Vision Pro.

There is no shortage of Thunderbolt docking hubs for Mac laptops to make it easy to connect multiple monitors and keep all your devices charged. At my desk, I like to keep a minimalist approach. I don’t have a lot of accessories. I don’t have multiple monitors. I have simple goals: keep it clean and charged (Macbook Pro and iPhone/AirPods Pro). With those goals in mind, the UGREEN Nexode 100W USB C Charger with 15W MagSafe Charger Wireless Stand has become the perfect solution for my needs.

HomeKit Secure Video was launched by Apple in 2019. It was introduced as part of the iOS 13 update, enhancing HomeKit with secure video capabilities designed for better privacy and security in home surveillance. Although a few updates have been seen since then, not much has changed. It’s time for Apple to double its commitment to secure smart home camera storage to work with cameras like the Eve Outdoor Cam and Logitech Circle View.

In this episode of Apple @ Work, I talk with Alcyr Araujo about the why and how of declarative device management for Apple devices.

Qi2 is the latest wireless charging standard the Wireless Power Consortium developed, incorporating Magnetic Power Profile (MPP) based on Apple’s MagSafe technology. This ensures accurate alignment and faster charging speeds of up to 15 watts – significantly improving the existing standard. Qi2 is backward compatible, allowing older Qi devices to charge on Qi2 chargers at slower speeds. Qi2 was designed to unify wireless charging standards globally, with all manufacturers expected to adopt it in future devices. The Anker MagGo Magnetic Wireless Charger is now my default Qi2/MagSafe charger for my laptop bag for travel.

Back in late January, T-Mobile made an announcement that caught the eye of our team. The company announced a “Connected Workplace” to deliver a seamless business solution that includes fast performance, Cisco Meraki devices, a cloud-managed networking platform, 24/7 support, and more. When I read this news, all I could think was about how this is a huge missed opportunity for Apple on the hardware and services side.

It’s been a while since I’ve found a fantastic new indoor HomeKit camera, but the TP-Link Tapo 2K is proving to be an excellent option. With support for local recording over an SD card, HomeKit Secure Video, and TP-Link’s cloud service, there are plenty of options to choose this camera for indoor recording needs. One thing I especially want to call out: it supports Wi-Fi 6!

MagSafe is one of those technologies, similar to smart home products, allowing you to go wild with extending your device. Sometimes, the most uncomplicated products are the most effective.

With the beta release of visionOS 1.1, Apple IT managers were greeted with a surprise: device management support would now be available. With the folks at Mosyle and Jamf adding early support for their customers, it’s evident to me what’s happening here: Apple expects Vision Pro to be used at work, and device management support is their signal to businesses that Vision Pro means business.

Onvis is up there as one of the most reliable HomeKit vendors around. They make quality products and are typically among the first to use new technology like Thread. I recently picked up the new Onvis Smart Motion Sensor to automate some of our living room lights while tracking the temperature.

Update: The Eve Energy Outlet is now shipping. It can be purchased from Amazon or the Eve Store. The Eve Energy Outlet will replace your traditional wall outlet with one that has Matter built in.

There are a multitude of options when it comes to MagSafe-enabled wallets for your iPhone. One of the ones I’ve been testing recently fits the bill if you want something more rugged for hiking, running, etc. The Pelican MagSafe Wallet & Card Holder (#CommissionsEarned) is a great option for storing cards and cash in a MagSafe wallet that snaps shut.

With rumors swirling that Apple will include Wi-Fi 7 in the upcoming iPhone 16, the networking industry is in full press on getting Wi-Fi 7 compatible access points on the market. Ubiquiti recently released its first Wi-Fi 7 access point: The U7 Pro.

SwitchBot is a unique smart home vendor that has made various pretty amazing products over the years. The SwitchBot Button pusher is a prime example of a relatively uncommon item with no alternative from another vendor. What powers the SwitchBot experience is the SwitchBot Hub 2. With Matter support, it comes to HomeKit, and you can now use the Switch Curtain Opener with HomeKit.
