If you've got this dealer-installed car alarm, patch it today with your iPhone‎

Millions of drivers with a dealer-installed KARR alarm should download the iPhone app and install the latest firmware update now, because a security flaw can let nearby attackers unlock or immobilize more than two million vehicles.Bluetooth vulnerabilityThe affected KARR Security System is an aftermarket alarm that dealerships install to protect vehicles on their lots. Dealers often leave the hardware connected after a vehicle is sold, even when the buyer declines to pay for the alarm service.The vulnerability affects dealer-installed KARR hardware, not the automakers' factory systems. It doesn't affect Apple CarPlay, the iPhone-to-car connection or Apple's software.Because KARR is third-party equipment, automakers can't distribute the fix through their usual software update systems. The unusual arrangement places the problem outside the normal vehicle security process. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

At last, WhatsApp for iPad can be set up without another device‎

WhatsApp is making its iPad app work more like a standalone service by letting users create an account without first setting it up on a phone.WhatsApp for iPadMeta is rolling out the change as part of a wider WhatsApp update that also expands CarPlay support, adds basic PDF tools and makes it easier to share music. Direct registration addresses one of the largest limitations of the iPad app since its 2025 launch.WhatsApp for iPad previously relied on the company's linked-device system, which required users to establish an account elsewhere before connecting the tablet. The new process lets users register, complete setup and begin using WhatsApp directly from the iPad app.Meta hasn't explained whether registration still requires a phone number capable of receiving a verification code or whether an iPad can remain the account's only primary device. The change still gives iPad owners a more conventional signup process without first configuring WhatsApp on another device. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums
