Happy Monday! We are now heading into a period where new Apple announcements (MacBook Pro, Mac mini, iPad Pro, and standard iPad) seem imminent. Make sure to keep your friends from buying any of those things for the next few weeks…

Apple Maps has matured from its rocky start back a decade ago into a robust alternative to Google Maps. This week on Mac Power Users, Stephen and I go on a road trip through the service’s history, features, and more.

This week MacSparky is sponsored by Daylite, which just announced its new Daylite Opportunities Board.
Unlock your sales potential with the new Daylite Opportunities Board
For small businesses, acquiring new business often means juggling multiple priorities at the same time, as each deal has its own time frame and different client requirements. That’s why you need a tool that will help better manage your sales pipeline, so you’re making the most of every sales opportunity that comes your way.
Meet the Daylite Opportunities Board
The Daylite Opportunities Board lets you visually track your deals’ progress at every stage and helps you prioritize sales opportunities. This powerful feature gives you a holistic view of your sales pipelines, allowing you to track where each Opportunity is in the process, so you and your team can focus on the most valuable ones. The drag-and-drop functionality allows you to move opportunities from one stage to the next, and you can easily classify deals as “won” or “lost” by dragging them to the respective status categories. Learn more about how this powerful Daylite feature has become a game-changer for Apple-savvy small businesses.
I really like this new feature. Something visual like this is the best way to keep all of your team on the same page.

If the rumors are to be believed, Apple is inching toward releasing their AR/VR goggles (early?) next year. As such, you can be assured the circle of trust at Apple is growing as they ramp up for manufacturing, marketing, and selling the new product.
Unfortunately for Apple, not everyone in that expanded circle will be trustworthy. I expect we’ll be getting more rumors about the new product than we’ve heard in the past. As an example, The Information is now reporting it will include iris scanning biometrics. I’m sure some of the rumors we’ll start getting will be true, and some will be entirely fabricated. Regardless, expect to hear a lot more about Apple’s AR/VR goggles.
I’m sorry about this change, but today’s Virtual Meetup has moved back 2 hours to 12:00 Pacific. Below is a NEW zoom sign-in link to get into the Virtual Meetup today at noon Pacific. If you can’t make it, I will get out the audio and video recording afterward. I’m sorry about the last-minute reschedule… This is a post for MacSparky Labs Tier 2 (Backstage) and Tier 3 (Early Access) Members only. Care to join? Or perhaps do you need to sign in?

It’s not entirely clear whether or not Lufthansa is banning the use of AirTags in luggage stowed on their planes. It seems, however, they at least don’t like the idea.
I’ve been using AirTags in airline luggage since AirTags first showed up, and I plan on continuing to do so. Apple’s tiny tracker confirms for me when my luggage gets on the plane and then later gets off my plane. AirTags also come in handy to know exactly when my luggage makes its way to baggage claim and confirm that it doesn’t leave baggage claim without me.
I keep my luggage AirTags on the inside of my luggage, and I’ve never had a problem with reception. They come in very handy when traveling.
With me settling in at my new studio, Stephen and I use this episode of Mac Power Users to talk about our desk setups, what’s in our bags, and what we carry with us daily.

I hope you are heading into a week that Wayne Campbell could only call “Most Excellent.” This is a podcast-heavy week for me with us recording episodes of MPU, Automators, and Focused. I’m looking forward to Focused this week when we’ll be talking to Joey Cofone about Creativity…
