Apple Card: One of my favorite Apple products just got even better

Right off the top, as Apple's "Spring Loaded" event was getting underway on Tuesday -- this being the iPhone maker's first virtual product launch event of 2021 -- Apple CEO Tim Cook hit everyone with a surprise update about ... Apple Card. That's the company's digital credit card product, which also has a companion physical card that users can forgo if they only want the digital version to keep in their iPhone's Wallet app -- and ahead of some key updates about this Apple product that's actually one of my favorites from the company, Cook raved that Apple Card had "the most successful credit card launch ever" following its August 2019 introduction.

He pointed to things that the Apple Card improved on, like a lack of fairness in the industry around how credit scores are calculated. And then he got down to business, unveiling an Apple Card update that certain users (families) are going to particularly love. Apple is calling the update Apple Card Family, and it includes the ability of spouses to now share Apple Card credit lines, and to add children as approved users.
