**The News Roundup: Apple's Latest Developments and Tech Trends**

Apple's Mac address has been a topic of concern among users, as it allows devices to identify themselves on Wi-Fi networks. However, this feature also provides ad agencies and retailers with the ability to track individual devices based on their location. In response, iosa aims to put a stop to this by randomizing Mac addresses to prevent tracking.

Apple's stance on this issue is clear, but many users may not be aware of the implications of having their Mac address transmitted. The company has consistently emphasized the importance of protecting user privacy and security. With the increasing use of Wi-Fi and mobile devices, it's essential for Apple to prioritize user safety and protect against unwanted tracking.

**Split Screen Multitasking on the iPad**

Developers claim that code for split screen multitasking on the iPad has been found in iOS 8 beta files. This feature would allow users to run multiple apps side by side, making it easier to multitask and boost productivity. Steve Smith, a developer who discovered the code, believes that this feature will be available soon.

The ability to have apps running at different sizes will also be a game-changer for iPad users. With split screen multitasking, users can have multiple apps open simultaneously without having to close or switch between them. This feature is expected to become more prevalent in future iOS updates, and developers are excited about the potential benefits it could bring.

**App Store Moderators Cracking Down on Tracking Apps**

Apple has been cracking down on apps that use tracking techniques to gather user data. App Store moderators have been directed by Apple to identify and remove any apps that use these methods. While some developers agree with this decision, others believe that it's an overreach of Apple's authority.

The reason behind Apple's decision is to protect users' privacy and prevent the misuse of their data. By removing tracking apps from the App Store, Apple aims to maintain a safe and secure environment for its users. The company has consistently emphasized the importance of protecting user data and preventing unwanted tracking.

**LeBron James Benefits from Apple's Acquisition of Beats**

The NBA Finals may have come to an end, but one of the players involved, LeBron James, is still reaping the benefits of Apple's acquisition of Beats by Dre. James netted $30 million in cash and stocks as part of the deal, making it the largest equity payout for a professional athlete ever.

While James has ties with Apple competitor Samsung, he remains committed to working with Beats despite their new ownership. The company may still use James in future ads, but it's unclear how much influence his involvement will have on their marketing strategy.

**The Fate of the iPhone 5c**

The iPhone 5c, which was introduced as a cheaper alternative to the iPhone 6, is facing an uncertain future. With the release of the larger iPhone 6s, many are wondering if Apple will continue to sell the smaller device or simply discontinue it.

Apple's strategy for the 5c is unclear, but some analysts believe that the company may choose to phase out the device in favor of more premium models like the iPhone 6s. Others speculate that Apple may decide to keep the 5c alongside the larger device as a budget-friendly option for users who want a smaller phone.

**Wireless Charging from Starbucks and Duracell**

Starbucks and Duracell are teaming up to offer wireless charging mats for compatible devices, making it easier for users to charge their phones while they enjoy a cup of coffee. The feature is expected to become more widespread in the coming months, allowing users to simply place their phone on a mat after getting a coffee and have it start charging instantly.

The partnership between Starbucks and Duracell highlights the growing trend of wireless charging technology. As more devices become compatible with this feature, it's likely that we'll see more businesses offering wireless charging options for customers. The convenience of wireless charging could revolutionize the way we charge our devices on-the-go.
