  • Apple chose a bad year to launch expensive iPads that aren't compelling

    TuuborTuubor

    I have to disagree with the Apple Pencil hover feature. It is very significant for artists. This type of pen tip detection is on every graphic tablet and was the one big feature missing from the iPad. It is great for graphic designers but also for us photographers. The ability to preview the pen size and opacity before applying a mask in Capture One or Lightroom makes a huge difference in a pro workflow. With this feature, the ability to connect to an Apple Studio Display and all the other greatness of the iPad combined I am beginning to consider the iPad Pro for my photo editing workflow.


    I feel like this article was really negative. Yeah sure those are minor upgrades and there is some silly stuff like the basic iPad not supporting the 2nd gen pencil, but this is a mature market already. Everything is incremental.

  • Apple announces 'Tap to Pay', lets users take payments on iPhone

    Nice! Now let me just wait 7 years for this feature to eventually come to Finland.

  • Lawsuit charges Apple with ignoring swelling Apple Watch batteries

    TuuborTuubor
    My series 2 did this just two monts before the device turned two years old. Suddenly shut down and stopped charging and started heating up in the official Apple Watch charger (the only thing I have ever charged with). It would not turn back on. Took it out of the charger and left it on my nightstand and in the morning the screen was detached from the other side because the battery had swollen. 

    Luckily here in the EU you can get your device fixed under warranty when it is under 2 years old. It’s the law. Apple does not advertise it but they are required to fix it. So I took it back to the carrier I got it from and Apple replaced it with a brand new one. So even all of my scratches on the screen are gone. I was pretty delighted.

  • Apple breaks with digital music competitors, will not appeal songwriter royalty increase

    Apple is getting portrayed favourably as a friend to the arts by not appealing the increase. 

    Increased Apple hardware sales.

    Apple makes more money than the difference in royalties. 
    Yes. So what do we learn from this? Doing the right thing actually wins in the end. Every time. This is why Apple succeeds.

  • How to stop getting the 'Storage Full' message on your iPhone

    Or just pay Apple 9,99/month for 2Tb of iCloud storage and have a care free life. I have over 20 000 pictures, over 1800 videos and nearly 300 apps on my phone and never do I have to worry about running out of space. Everything syncs between my devices and everything just works. I mean 10$. I do have a 128Gb model but I’m sure people waste that kind of money on all kinds of stupid stuff and never complain about it. But when it comes to buying digital goods that makes your life easy it’s suddenly wrong. C’mon people.
    Until someone hacks (your) iCloud or the service is disabled or your network doesn't work.
    Being dependent, while you don't need to be is a bad choice. 
    How is having your data anywhere else any safer or different? My phone can be stolen, hacked, destroyed etc. Even if I keep everything on my Mac or an external ssd. My house can burn down or whatever. That is the most stupid reason not to have data in the cloud. Anything can happen. I could die if I leave my house but I still do ’cause I take that chance because I want to live a nice life.

    Also I am pretty sure Apple has some very robust ways of backing up and securing my data.

  • Netflix launches game controller app for iPhone, but still doesn't offer games on TVs

    TuuborTuubor
    I love the nod to the 80’s on the app logo. Reminds me of the Nintendo gaming console controller with the buttons and the slight 80’s colorvibe is spot on.

  • Inside iOS 10: Control Center expands to three panes, offering quick access to Music & Home

    TuuborTuubor
    Yes this needs to be customizable. Strange choices from Apple. What we really need is the ability to 3D touch on wifi and blutooth. Also now accessing music is one more step away atleast when you first launch CC. Also why couldn't Music be on the right side and HomeKit on the left side? That way u only need a single swipe to access a different panel since there are only 3. And also agree that NightShift takes up too much. Don't get me wrong I love Apple but I hope they rethink the CC with the future beta releases. Atleast a little :neutral:
