Apple TV+ Docuseries 'Home' Launches Featuring 'the World's Most Imaginative Dwellings'

"Home," a TV show about people who live in creative houses, today launched on Apple TV+, marking the debut of the service's first docuseries.

"Home" is described as a look at the imaginative dwellings of visionaries who challenge the conventional concepts of "home" and rethink how we live.


There are nine episodes in the series featuring different dwellings around the world in places like Sweden, Bali, Chicago, Hong Kong, Maine, India, Malibu, Austin, and Mexico. Each episode is around 30 minutes long.

The first episode of the series, "Sweden," features the home of a man who constructed a greenhouse over a log cabin, while other episodes feature a home made entirely from bamboo, a science fiction-themed house, a home made from handcrafted materials, and more.

The show is available now in the ‌Apple TV‌ app on iPhone, iPad, Macs, ‌Apple TV‌, and select smart TVs that include the ‌Apple TV‌ app. It is available to all ‌Apple TV‌+ subscribers.

Tim Cook Addresses Covid-19 Concerns at Company-wide Virtual Meeting



Apple CEO Tim Cook addressed employee concerns about Covid-19 at a company-wide virtual meeting today, reports Bloomberg.

Cook described the outbreak as an "uncertain and stressful moment" but said he believes Apple will emerge strongly from the shutdown as it did following the 2008 recession and its near bankruptcy in the late 90s. Cook also noted that while Apple "isn’t immune to worldwide economic trends" it entered the pandemic with a robust balance sheet. He stressed the company will keep investing in research and development and future products in a "really significant way".

"If we stay focused on doing what we do best, if we keep investing, if we manage the business wisely and make decisions collaboratively, if we take care of our teams, if our teams take care of their work, I don’t see any reason to be anything but optimistic," Cook told staff.

Apple Music on the Web Exits Beta

Last September, Apple launched a web-based Apple Music experience, offering users a similar experience to the Mac version of the Music app with "For You," "Browse," and "Radio" sections, along with playlists, recommendations and more.


As of today, Apple Music on the web has exited beta and is now available at music.apple.com. The previous beta.music.apple.com address automatically forwards to the newly launched version.

Once you're signed into the web version of ‌Apple Music‌ with your Apple ID that has an associated ‌Apple Music‌ subscription, you'll have access to all of your library and playlist content, as well as the same personal mixes and recommendations you'll see in the Music apps for iOS, Mac, and Android.

‌Apple Music‌ content plays right in the web browser, providing access for an array of devices and platforms that don't have native Music app support, include Windows 10, Linux, and Chrome OS.

‌Apple Music‌ on the web is also where you can access your Apple Music Replay mixes with personalized playlists for each year reflecting your most-played songs. Once you activate your ‌Apple Music‌ Replay experience through the web, you can add the playlists to the rest of your devices.

If you're not already a member of ‌Apple Music‌, you can sign up here for a free three-month trial, and then select from individual, family, and student plans if you want to continue.

(Thanks, Jesse!)
