Twitter reportedly testing out Sign in With Apple feature

App researcher Jane Manchun Wong has discovered that Twitter is trying to let you sign into the app with your Apple ID. An evidence Wong has included a new "Connected accounts" option with Apple listed as a signing-in option. Twitter explains, "These are the social accounts you connected to your Twitter account to log in. You can disable access here."

Apple does offer this option to apps and sites, but it isn't a requirement. To use Sign in with Apple, you need to use two-factor authentication and be signed in to iCloud with that Apple ID on your device. Twitter has been using its own sign-in systems so far, but perhaps that might change in the future.

Next-gen update for 'The Witcher 3' will come with DLC 'inspired by' Netflix series

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is getting a free update to optimize the game for new consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S later this year. CD Projekt Red will include free downloadable content "inspired by" the Netflix series. The developer and Netflix announced this news during WitcherCon. Not much is known about the DLC yet. But Philipp Weber, acting lead quest designer at CD Projekt Red, said: "So as an example, you might be able to wear Geralt's armour inspired by the Netflix series."

This update has been in the works since September 2020. Back then, the developer said it would offer "a range of visual and technical improvements," including ray tracing and quicker loading times. The update will apply to the "base game, both expansions, and all extra content."
