They demoed Swiftkey? Where? They added Swiftkey style keyboard. That's essentially like the Google Keyboard (which also does swiping). I still prefer Swiftkey which has a good 3 years head start on Google and it shows. The Google keyboard is good enough. But Swiftkey is awesome.
D'okay... before we continue, you should go watch the keynote.
The demoed the new keyboard with predictive text buttons. LATER, they demoed third-party keyboard extensions, and explained how they're sandboxed for security, unless you specifically give them network access.
From my experience the logic always comes around to that everything was stolen from Apple. Always. Every time. Every product. Even unannounced ones. Even on features Apple never even had. It's all Apple. Apple invented fucking everything. Because it's Apple. Burning Apple juice running through our veins as we all power our souls with iOS and turn our vision into SceneKit. We power our brain with Swift and put on Beats headphones as we continue our trip through the road where every turn will lead us to Apple. Apple is love. Apple is life.
Truth is, a LOT is from Apple. Don't forget that Apple has been around for a long time, and without them a lot of the things we take for granted in tech land wouldn't exist. They patented a lot of those things too.
Common sense helps too. Pretty easy to see the line of demarcation pre-and-post-iPhone. And the iPhone was based on the original Newton, and a lot of underlying technology has it's roots from pre-OSX Apple.
So basically they ripped off a whole lot of Android features.

Yes, we know. Thank you for having them "first"
You are aware that the current smartphone os market is at a certain level of maturity, right? Meaning what A has that B, i and W don't, B, i and W will put their spin on. Same for what i has that A, B, and W don't.
You've also checked the calendar, right? It isn't 2007 anymore. It's 2014. I don't care who had it first. I choose based on who does it best for me.

You quote the post that explains my point of view, yet you miss the point.
[SIZE=2][/SIZE]These extensions work with other iOS technologies to provide iOS-flavored security.
They will need to share data with various components, not to mention the front most app and its own bundled app.
I think it is more than meet the eyes. Otherwise Apple won't have to wait so long to introduce them. The sessions will likely reveal more.
It is premature to say Apple copy Android. They may evolve from Mac and OSX instead. After all, widgets and extensions are faily old concepts and implementations in System 7.

Apple takes a lot of things. Google takes a lot of things. Microsoft takes a lot of things. Yet when Google and Microsoft do it, it's insane and awful and they're literally Hitler, and when Apple does it, it's all sunshine and butterflies and patents.
Honestly, if people didn't scream about how everything about Android is a rip-off, I probably would've never posted what I posted.
But, Apple fans always find excuses. Yesterday having file system access was awful, today it's the best thing ever. Nothing new here.
Yeah, must be why 99% of the malware attacks are Android only. Maybe, you should put down the android kool aid. You seemed to have spilled some on your keyboard.

Godwin's Law strikes again. Whenever somebody references Hitler/Nazism the rest of their post(s) can be thrown in the trash.

No, it's awful to take a desktop concept file system and slap it onto a mobile device. There's nothing inherently wrong with a file system, but they're often not very intuitive and present a complication of average users.
The best thing Apple has done in the last 7 years (IMO) is to make computing devices so accessible for people who aren't considered tech-literate.
So when Apple doesn't have these features people complain that they're falling behind competition. Then when Apple announces them people complain that they're just copying Android or Windows or whatever. Is there anything Apple announced today that looks and works exactly like the competition? With the exact same implementation?

You forgot Newton (of course you did).
You forgot the HP-150 (of course you did).
We can do this forever.
*looks at his iPad*
*looks at his Surface*
*looks at his Lumia*
Right.
Shocked you would say that. Juuuuuust kidding. We knew you would.
DaHarder, is that you?
Who?
We can do this forever.
Well, at least until we hit the first Apple computer. Then you’re screwed.
Now you're officially clueless. Apple brought up the Neonode and included the owners manual as a reference in their patent application.
Why don't you think about why Apple did that before making yourself look worse than you already do.
EricTheHalfBee, how long is you block list going to be by the end of the day

Why else would I be on an Apple forum?

No. No they didn't.

Someone you'd probably get along well with.

I wonder when KDarling will show up.....

Yeah, must why the vast majority of malware is targeted at Android. Maybe you should stop drinking the Android Kool-Aid.
You really gotta stop drinking that Apple Kool-aid.
