Episode 323: App Store, finances, and NameDrop

Apple this week released its App Store Award winners, most popular podcasts, and top books of 2023. You can also see your top played songs and albums of the year in Apple Music. Rumors from a couple of months ago turned out to be true—Apple will be looking for a new partner for its Apple Card and savings account. Dave and I also look at a story from a police department warning parents that Apple's new NameDrop feature is unsafe for kids.
