Tech News Today in 2016

As 2016 approaches, we are making a few changes to TWiT’s News Department.

Mike Elgan has decided to move on from TWiT to focus on his writing and resume his world travels. We wish him the very best, and he will still be a regular guest on both This Week in Google and This Week in Tech. You can follow his adventures as a "digital nomad" here.

We are excited to announce Jason Howell and Megan Morrone as the new hosts of Tech News Today. We look forward to this pairing and seeing how the show evolves in the new year. The redesigned Tech News Today launches on January 4, 2016, and you can subscribe here.

(Megan Morrone will be anchoring TNT in the interim, through the rest of 2015).

Stay tuned! We will have more updates soon on changes to the TWiT Live schedule for 2016.

iOS Today Starts May 18th

iPad Today is evolving! Starting on May 18th, the show will be known as iOS Today.

Fans of the existing show need not worry: iOS Today will still cover the latest and greatest for the iPad. In addition, Leo Laporte and Megan Morrone will include what's happening with the iPhone, Apple Watch, and Apple TV. (Your existing subscription will also remain, as the feeds will stay the same).

The show will continue to feature app recommendations, along with tips and tricks to get the most out of your device. It will also introduce new segments, including information about developing apps for iOS.

The first episode of iOS Today records on Monday, May 18th, at 12:30PM Pacific. You can watch it live at live.twit.tv, and the show will be available for download and on demand streaming later that afternoon here. (The page will be updated with the new name and album art in the coming days).

Please note: These changes will not affect iFive for the iPhone.
