For the iPad Pro I got the excellent charjenpro MagFlött via kickstarter - it’s odd they don’t also have a solution for iPad Mini…. Hope AI get to review MagFlött soon.

Let me play devils advocate then: for the MetaVerse I remember when I got my first domain name in the 90’s and trying to tell friends how the internet would be key to communicating and shopping in the future. They looked at me much the same way we l…

Mac studio (for some reason I just can’t remember that name).

I generally upgrade iOS in late January. I found the security updates for iOS 14 in the early days after iOS 15 helpful and wish they’d continued for a little longer.

I find the tone of this article really disturbing.The majority of MacOS apps that natively support M1 have been compiled on Intel MacOS with the Xcode cross compiler/universal binary - not on M1 natively. Application developers like me are develop…

There also doesn’t seem to be a way to pre-purchase 2 year applecare with the device now. I’ve been looking at making a purchase online and I see this as a big headache - I have to go in store to buy AppleCare on the same receipt as the device. I…

In an opinion piece I think it would be kinder if the author at least tried to unpack Apple’s position. “Apple claims that opening up repair access to its devices would create consumer safety and security risks.” Those “consumer safety and security…

Surely the dip in use is due to stay-at-home/lockdowns and mask use. Using ApplePay on my phone with a mask on is impossible. I use the watch instead.

The user experience in cars is rubbish. I drive a lot of different cars when travelling (in a normal year), and the user experience in them is all poor. Some slightly better than others. I've not driven a Tesla. But the automotive industry have …

jumpingcoco said: But at least talk, Tim Cook, see what they were working on!!! That is an excellent reason NOT to talk. Apple has been sued before for "taking a meeting" then releasing their own "similar" product. You only take the meet…

Good discussion here. Certainly these games with virtual currency are all a blatant rip-off, and the sooner they are all declared gambling and therefore age limiters put on the better. But until the government or a court makes that ruling... I th…

Needless to say I haven’t read the whole report - but based on the quote in the article, and that the quote wasn’t specifically about Apple, but about the whole lot of them, it seems pretty reasonable to me. Specifically- Apple’s first party servi…

Europe has been making pretty much the same case against the US for some time now. That EU citizens need greater data sovereignty, and that there should be 'local' cloud providers and social networks, app stores and network services rather than pri…

This has been a well known problem for years. I'd be curious to know what finally made them act (or pretend to act). Presumably some network threatened to block their browser or something. Who would have guessed that a web browser supplied by a…
