You get an email from a doctor about a document that you'll need for an upcoming meeting with an insurance company. You then need to take that document and send it to another person via Messenger. Sound hard to do? Not really.
Here's how:
Read the email from the doctor. He may have you click on a private link to see the document in question.
Once there, open the document on your iOS device.
While open, tap the Share icon (a square with an arrow pointing up).
In the Share menu, type the Messenger icon.
The PDF file will attach itself to an outgoing message.
Type in where the message is going in the TO: Field (upper portion of the screen).
If you wish to send a message with the attachment, you can do so now.

According to Windows Central, future versions of Outlook will embrace the web as a universal platform across both PC and MACs.
According to the article:
Codenamed Monarch and is based on the already available Outlook Web app available in a browser today.
Project Monarch is the end-goal for Microsoft's "One Outlook" vision, which aims to build a single Outlook client that works across PC, Mac, and the Web. Right now, Microsoft has a number of different Outlook clients for desktop, including Outlook Web, Outlook (Win32) for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Mail & Calendar on Windows 10.
Microsoft wants to replace the existing desktop clients with one app built with web technologies. The project will deliver Outlook as a single product, with the same user experience and codebase whether that be on Windows or Mac. It'll also have a much smaller footprint and be accessible to all users whether they're free Outlook consumers or commercial business customers.
Apple today announced that Monica Lozano, president and CEO of College Futures Foundation, has been elected to Apple’s board of directors. Lozano brings with her a broad range of leadership experience in the public and private sectors, as well as a long and storied track record as a champion for equity, opportunity, and representation.
Prior to joining College Futures Foundation, Lozano spent 30 years in media as editor and publisher of La Opinión, the largest Spanish-language newspaper in the US, helping shine a light on issues from infant mortality to the AIDS epidemic. She went on to become chairman and CEO of La Opinión’s parent company, ImpreMedia. Lozano continues to serve on the boards of Target Corporation and Bank of America Corporation.
“Monica has been a true leader and trailblazer in business, media, and an ever-widening circle of philanthropic efforts to realize a more equitable future — in our schools and in the lives of all people,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, in a statement. “Her values and breadth of experience will help Apple continue to grow, to innovate, and to be a force for good in the lives of our teams, customers, and communities.”
“Monica has been a pioneer in every organization fortunate enough to benefit from her vision and expertise,” said Arthur Levinson, Apple’s chairman, in a statement. “After a thorough and fruitful search, I couldn’t be more confident in the positive impact Monica will have on our board and Apple as a whole.”
“I’ve always admired Apple’s commitment to the notion that technology, at its best, should empower all people to improve their lives and build a better world,” said Lozano, in a statement. “I look forward to working with Tim, Art, and the other board members to help Apple carry those values forward and build on a rich and productive history.”
Throughout her accomplished career as a business leader, public servant, and philanthropist, Lozano has made an indelible impact on companies and communities in the US and around the world, earning awards from organizations like The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
In her role as CEO of College Futures Foundation, Lozano has been a tireless advocate for expanding access to higher education, partnering with philanthropic organizations, state and local governments, and local communities to improve opportunity for low-income students and students of color.
Lozano is a co-founder of the Aspen Institute Latinos and Society Program, and a former chair of both the University of California Board of Regents and the board of directors of the Weingart Foundation, a private philanthropic organization. Lozano is also a former board member of The Walt Disney Company.
Apple told a developer of the “Amphetamine” Mac app that their software violated the company’s App Store Guidelines due to a drug reference in its name.
This sudden takedown notice happened despite the app having been on the store for some six years and “Amphetamine” having been actively promoted by Apple itself. Only a few days later, Apple reversed its decision.
William C. Gustafson, the developer behind the Amphetamine app (which allows Mac computers to avoid going into sleep mode) said he received a call from Apple asking him to remove the application.
“Apple called me a few days ago and informed me that I have 2 weeks to completely remove all references to the word “amphetamine” and remove the pill from the icon, else Apple will remove Amphetamine from the Mac App Store on 1/12/21”, Gustafson claimed on Reddit.
Such an alert was strange as the free Amphetamine app had been featured by Apple in a Mac App Store Story , and had been downloaded nearly half a million times prior to Apple’s message.
Apple’s App Store guidelines state that: Apps that encourage consumption of tobacco or vape products, illegal drugs, or excessive amounts of alcohol are not permitted on the App Store. Apps that encourage minors to consume any of these substances will be rejected. Facilitating the sale of marijuana, tobacco, or controlled substances (except for licensed pharmacies) isn’t allowed.”
“I specifically asked Apple on the phone if this was a result of customer complaints and Apple’s response was ‘I don’t think so,’” Gustafson also told The Verge. “I found it odd that this issue came up out of nowhere. I wasn’t in the middle of trying to update Amphetamine or anything. Just sitting at home with my kids enjoying our holiday and got the violation/rejection email from Apple.”
The smartphone giant contacted Gustafson on 29 December 2020, but by 2 January 2021 Apple had reconsidered its decision.
