    Wow, not much to get excited about here.
     lol, you guys are a riot -- first people complain that Apple needs to work on making its platform more stable, and then they complain it's not exciting enough.
    I guess if you’re a teenybopper who lives in Snapchat and Bitmoji this was a great update. I liked the changes to notifications and Siri shortcuts and group FaceTime but the rest was meh. News in the stocks app? Who even uses that app? And showing off ARKit with people holding up iPads? Who’s gonna do that? Your arms would get tired in an instant. Where is the SiriKit domain for music and podcasts? Where is the support for 3rd party music and podcast apps on AppleWatch? Or more Siri skills for HomePod? HomePod wasn’t even mentioned on stage. How about changes to iCloud pricing? Based on the little rumors we had I wasn’t expecting a ton of OMG things but I was expecting more.
    After every WWDC were are treated to the whining of the perpetually disappointed and depressed society, if which you are the supreme leader. 
    Dont simply brush off what he /she said... there is DEFINITLY merit there. 
    Unless the only acceptable thing to do is to praise everything apple does.. ... regardless. ....

    Wow, not much to get excited about here.    Admittedly iBooks, if done right, could function much better on iPad where I like to use it.    Hopefully more info will follow but I jsut left feeling that they haven't revealed anything ground breaking here (not that that is a bad thing)
    You not the only one who feels that way. Apple stock is taking a small dip as we speak. 
    Apple stock takes a dip after every announcement, because Mr. Market has no idea what its doing.
    I dont think Apple does either

    Photos

    The new Photos app will predict what the user is interested in, and is "more powerful than ever" according to Federighi.

    Or in my case, the new Photos app will attempt to predict what the user is interested in and more often than not get it wrong. It will also attempt to predict how the user wants to tag, organize, and search for photos, and more often than not get it wrong.
    Indeed , indeed ,  indeed...

    Lately when i watch this commercial from 80s....  i see  Apple on the big screen and many loyal fans wanting to be the hammer... how ironic.

  • Google takes top spot in global smart speaker market, HomePod nowhere to be found

    HomePod only launched in 3 countries and had no AirPlay2 or ‘Stereo’ pairing. 6-7% market share is pretty good considering. 
    Why should have they released a half baked product. Apple is getting too Sloopy
