Just to give Apple Maps a little love here: I was recently in Budapest and was delighted to see Apple Maps had walking and transit directions there. They were excellent. I compared them to Google the entire time and Apple Maps was actually better! A…

Dear Tim, “Everyone” doesn’t want a jumbo phone. “Everyone” isn’t buying a phone on price alone. Bring back the iPhone SE, so “Everyone” has a real choice!

Please, no. What a terrible name. I don’t see Apple going with an awful name like that.

Pretty sure the issue they’re concerned about is that the Republican controlled NC legislature is currently trying to push through two Amendments to limit the Democratic governor’s power. They’ve been up to similar morally dubious mischief ever sinc…

This is what I love about Tim’s leadership and one of the many ways he’s improved Apple, by being public about his giving, and bringing philanthropy back to the company. Jobs, brilliant though he was, was notoriously private about his charitable g…

Apple is indeed excellent when it comes to accessibility — head and shoulders above any other tech company. But that said, because of this they do put a target on their backs if they ever slip up. If their website isn’t in compliance with ADA, then …

I pay for the highest tier of iCloud storage. I used to be on the 200GB plan but my Photos library got too large. I wish Apple offered another 1-2 tiers in between so I didn’t have to leap from $3/month to $10/month, but I ended up just turning on d…

Re tip #2, you can add the shortcut as a home screen button if you use the Workflow app. From inside your workflow, just tap the gear and then the “add to home screen” link. In this case, tapping that newly created button on your home screen will au…

I’m all for Apple holding off on releasing a product/feature until it works the way it should, but they HAVE GOT to get out of the bad habit of announcing products/features and then delaying them ad nauseum. It makes them look sloppy, not to mention…

So a total luddite, who doesn’t own a single Apple product, thinks himself uniquely qualified to instruct the most valuable tech company on earth where to spend its cash? What an arrogant putz. Get a life, Ralph!

I use the Nike+RunClub app on my 3rd edition GPS Apple Watch and although I love the features, the performance is awful. It fails to sync, repeatedly fails when it’s trying to download audio-guided runs, drops audio from runs, and sometimes screws u…

Yes, the High Sierra version for unsupported Macs is smooth on my upgraded 2008 unibody. I’ve had no problems running it, and the experience sure beats being stuck on El Capitan.

I love Apple Maps, and it’s beautiful 3D Flyovers, but I do regularly spot and submit corrections on missing and mislabeled locations. It’s a huge data integrity problem for Apple. Google Maps is not without its flaws, but it has far more data and f…

Ugh. Why are there so many iPhone size queens out there?! Newsflash: A 6” screen is not an SE; it’s a completely different phone. The iPhone SE is by definition a compact form factor with ~4” screen. The small size at a cheaper price point is the ma…

These iPhone SE X renders are laughable. There is zero chance that the next iPhone SE will resemble the iPhone X.

If they’re going to release Product Red iPhones then I sure hope they slip an updated SE into the mix. 🙏
