Power button Touch ID on the iPad Air 4 was an 'incredible feat'
Maybe Apple is replacing Face ID with Touch ID going forward. Every one of its devices can eventually include this Touch ID tech except for today's Watch. Refining this for the Watch may come soon.canukstorm said:I don't want to take away from the great work Apple did with incorporating TouchID within the power button they could have simply used FaceID to pull off an all-screen design. There's enough bezel there to do it. FaceID is very convenient on a big screen device like an iPad.
Why? It may be less self-conscious than FaceID and maybe being much more secure. (Just a surmise.)

Sleep tracking and monitoring coming to Apple Watch in 2020
AutoSleep has helped me improve my sleep hygiene //immensely//. Correcting an ambiguity above, AutoSleep definitely and emphatically uses heart rate monitoring along with physical motion monitoring.Soli said:
You should try a different app. SleepWatch does use motion but it also uses your HR to determine your sleep cycles. You never tell it when you're sleeping and I've found it to be surprisingly accurate when knowing I'm both in bed and taking a nap. It even worked on a plane, which I found surprising since that's a lot of constant movement with plane and poor overall sleep.MacPro said:I look forward to Apple getting into this area and hopefully using sensors that go beyond motion. I've been testing AutoSleep as has my wife and the results seem somewhat dubious to us, to put it mildly. My wife is a poor sleeper often lying awake for hours which all get's logged as sleep. How it can recognize 'deep sleep' from 'quality sleep' based on movement as opposed to electrical read-outs from the brain is a mystery to me. For the price, I am not complaining but I suspect they are just novelty apps until more sensor data can be accessed.

Inside iPhone 8: Apple's A11 Bionic introduces 5 new custom silicon engines
Still waiting for for my MacBook Pro to be even close to as versatile as an iPad or iPhone in anything other than Geekscale ™. I’ll reserve judgement until the MacBook Pro weighs 1 pound.staticx57 said:Still waiting for for an iPad or iPhone to be even close to as versatile as my MacBook Pro in anything other than Geekbench.
