The author is naive to say "This would certainly pull a small amount of resources away from other projects as the developer says." I don't know what toolchain this developer is using, but here is what I know about Xcode. The latest Xcode won't eve…

Let me share an 'outside the US' perspective. All this discussion about RCS is moot. If I send an SMS/RCS to any Android contact, I never get a reply and they never see it. Why? Because Android users use WhatsApp. In other countries it's WeChat…

I mostly just use the TV app on iPad. It's basically no different to using Plex - just load your 'home videos' into TV app on macOS then sync with iPad, or use iMazing to send it to the iPad. I've also used the 'photos' app to play (shorter) vide…

Autumn colours. It’s summer now, autumn next. I’m looking forward to the autumn special event in March!

Comparing this with the TP-Link C120 is wrong - the C120 doesn't have any HomeKit support, and I've not seen even a hint that it may come ever. Also weird timing for this review. I've used Eufy 2C's for a few years already. They obviously wear …

So next time Apple are negotiating the license fee for Google to be the default search engine, there is going to be a very awkward converstation. Apple: $15B please Google: you said that you make Google the default search engine because we're the …

Here is a link to the original tweet thread https://twitter.com/sterlingcrispin/status/1665792422914453506?s=46&t=AWhgeyRe01KwTxOJuPXbmQ a bit cheeky not to include that in the article

My (limited) understanding of this is that they were using the old 'version 1' Twitter API which Twitter had told people not to use for quite some time. Now I believe these app developers did complain that the 'version 2' api was a step backwards in…

We all know that to extend the life of the battery it's better to have fewer charging cycles. But I spend a lot of time in my car, and of course I connect my phone via a wired connection for CarPlay. Except then the phone begins to charge. It doe…

a more useful feature would be "don't charge" except for start/end. we all know that for the life of the battery it's better to have fewer charging cycles. but I spend a lot of time in my car, and of course I connect my phone via a wired connecti…

I like that this article includes the data and the interpretation. It leaves the option open for us to interpret the data differently. I was/am a BIG FAN of iPhone SE - I do NOT like large phones. But since I bought the Apple Watch (which is tech…

No it's not a bug. It's designed to operate that way. It even prompts you to increase the limit if you prefer. I checked with the bank, and if you increase the limit they won't 'insure' you - because you've agreed to the risk. They do 'insure' you …

AFAICT this does NOT require Apple to give up control or fees. An "App Store" will be a new class of app that can be distributed by Apple. And you can bet (just like the 3rd party payments) that Apple will charge fees. Ie: if you want to have an …

Apple happily supplying software and security updates for a 10 year old operating system (windows 8 released in 2012) but not supplying iTunes security updates for their own 10 year old operating system (snow leopard). Clearly Apple want us to use …
