To raise awareness for its events, Apple uses an #AppleEvent "Hashflag" on Twitter, and now that the September 7 "Far Out" event has been announced, Apple has updated its hashflag.

The new Far Out hashflag features a dark blue Apple logo with multi-colored stars, which is in line with the tagline of the event and the invites that went out earlier today.

Apple has been using custom hashflags since 2020, with Apple using the Twitter icons to boost event visibility and build hype on social media networks.

The "Far Out" Apple event is set to take place on Wednesday, September 7.

A new sensor (48MP up from 12MP) will get you much detailed photos and if the aperture and pause time are right, with some magic from the software/firmware, it should definitely get us astrophotography. Not sure if that’s going to be enough for throngs of people to upgrade. We can trust Apple’s spin mach… sorry Marketing team to emphasize many other benefits of more pixels like digital zoom which could go 20x or more.

Tim Cook will be egregiously stoned at the event, and will unveil the new set of Apple superlatives to replace “magical” and “exciting”. He will keep saying “oh one more thing” but it won’t be a new product, just a detail he forgot.
