The premium Apple iMac Pro is going away. Apple is discontinuing the build-to-order desktop computer. While the default model, sans the extra bells and whistles, is still available, the company only plans to sell it until supplies last. 

It has been four years since Apple introduced the iMac Pro. And the company seems to think it's an appropriate time to say goodbye to this device. Some tech sites speculate that this might mean that Apple is introducing a refreshed iMac product line soon. We can't say anything for now, but we're keeping our eyes peeled for that possibility.

Apple's Find My feature is useful for locating lost Apple devices. Now, it looks like it could be used to prevent someone from using trackers or other accessories from stalking you. Item Safety Alerts feature makes a reappearance in the iOS 14.5 beta, which will inform you if an unknown device being tracked on Find My is "moving with you."
