    It better fix it. Crash on wake? Yep I’ll say that is the issue I’m experiencing.

  • Everything new in iOS 13.5 beta 3 - Face ID changes, and Exposure Notification

    gilly33gilly33
    Yeah how about that. Fix that extremely buggy brick potent macOS 10.15.4. That’ll make a lot of us happy.

  • Apple's iOS 13 is now available for your iPhone or iPod touch

    Got to tell you on my iPhone XS Max this update is buttery smooth. Apps are opening quicker, scrolling and swiping across home screen is just a delight. Will enjoy digging into all the new features but I’m stoked about finally getting ‘select all’ with the option to send to trash in the mail app. Took Apple long enough to add this feature. The main reason I got third party mail apps to begin with. And it seems that Face ID is snappier like they said but we’ll see over the next few days in various circumstances. It has had its fair share of hiccups on my phone. Altogether great update.

    Apple must not talk itself into believing that it cannot gain more market share. It must act aggressively, speed up the cycle, and push more variety of devices, i.e., do what they have done to the iPad line up to the iPhone line up. 
    Blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada. The Macintosh has never had more than a 10% share of the worldwide market and it has been a success for Apple all these years. Discerning customers see the value and TCO of Apple products and are very willing to pay the mythical Apple Tax. When has Apple EVER had a dominating share of ANY market? They have literally created or boosted markets out of thin air (personal computers, portable music players, smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, etc) only to see them dominated by cheap knock-offs and lookalikes. Through it all Apple has remained true to its mission statement to provide well designed, reliable, usable products that customers like to use. Again, tech blog forums like AI are filled with comments from a market segment that doesn’t value design, only cares about specs, and wants everything cheap.
    Well said lkrupp. Appreciate your insight as always. It’s the same stuff every year Android phones is outselling Apple. Apple is losing market share. Apple remains focused on the core mission. Mistakes made yes but mission focused.
