  • Apple snubs Nokia's Withings on new HomeKit accessories webpage

    Worth mentioning in all this is that Withings isn't very good to their customers. I have their body scale which came with a great iPad app that they since discontinued in a favor of their shitty all things to everyone iPhone only HealthMate app. And they still sell a Smart Kid Scale which requires a shitty old iOS 6 app to set up. That app warns under iOS 10.3 and likely won't work on iOS 11 leaving users unable to access their brand new 2017 scale. This isn't the Apple experience at all.

    That change did require an erase and reformat. I have no idea how the installer is supposed to switch file systems on a live device, this is puzzling.

    It was stated in the WWDC presentation that a goal of APFS was to be able to upgrade existing drives to it without erasing by writing the APFS metadata using the existing file system and then switching to APFS with a reboot. Apple acknowledged at WWDC that customers aren't going to accept APFS if it means a multi hour process of backing up and restoring. Just upgraded to iOS 10.3 without issue.
