Apple has invited members of the press to what it’s calling a “special Apple Experience” that will take place on March 4th at 9:00 am Eastern U.S. time in New York, London, and Shanghai, according to MacRumors. There’s no word yet on whether the event will be livestreamed.

With several products rumored to be getting updates in 2026, it’s hard to guess what’s planned, although in the past, Apple has launched or refreshed products like the iPhone 16e, iPads, and the MacBook Air around this time of year. It’s also notable that Apple is planning the event for multiple locations around the world. That certainly makes it more accessible than a single event in Cupertino, which is good to see.

Apple Announces Global Close Your Rings Day

April 24th marks the 10-year anniversary of the release of the Apple Watch. To mark the day, Apple has announced Global Close Your Rings Day, encouraging Apple Watch users to meet their daily fitness goals.

If you have an Apple Watch and close your Activity rings on April 24th, you’ll get a special limited edition award on your watch and animated stickers in Messages. Apple is also giving away a special pin that the company says is inspired by the award, starting April 24, while supplies last.

In a press release, Apple’s chief operating officer, Jeff Williams said:

Apple Watch has changed the way people think about, monitor, and engage with their fitness and health. A decade ago, we introduced Activity rings — and since then, Apple Watch has grown to offer an extensive set of features designed to empower every user. People write to us almost every day sharing how Apple Watch has made a difference in their life, from motivating them to move more throughout the day, to changing the trajectory of their health.
