  • iPadOS 15 confirms Apple's M1-equipped iPad Pro is a V8 engine powering a Ford Pinto

    I am so happy you wrote this article.  I think Apple should be praised for their hardware design, the M1 iPad Pro is a beast.  An A+ in my view.  

    But iPadOS has to change… it’s not an A+ OS for the the hardware inside iPad Pro.  The stark difference in how macOS uses M1 compared to iPadOS highlights the problem.  This article summarizes the issues very well… 

    I’m not saying Apple needs to bring macOS to the iPad, but we know that the M1 is an extremely capable chip.  So I really do hope Apple reimagines multitasking on the iPad and fixes the other issues like the external monitor issue as well as the files app, make it more robust similar to finder on the Mac.  

    There is soooo much potential inside of the iPad Pro, so I’m looking forward to Apple significantly improving the UI.  They could bring interactive widgets, windowing support, full multi-monitor support, pro apps, and more.  Samsung Dex is a relatively decent example of how multitasking on a tablet (or even a phone via an external monitor) could work… Apple has been creating UIs since the 80’s and has refined macOS beautifully.  IPadOS needs similar refinement, especially now that the powerful M1 is inside of the iPad Pro.

  • Head EU antitrust regulator wants Apple to allow alternate app stores

    Give users choice. No one is forcing anyone to use alternative app stores, but given that the app market is a billion dollar enterprise, I can see why governments are now interested in ensuring adequate competition. 

    I do believe it’s just a matter of time before alternative app stores are allowed on iOS.

  • Google hit with $268 million fine, will change how it advertises in France

    How does this benefit the end user? Seems like it benefits corporations using our data to target us with ads to try and get us to spend money.

  • iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 status will restrict what notifications are shown

    “Enhanced multitasking” this is beautiful, can’t wait to power up my new m1 iPad Pro. I’ll be watching keenly to see what Apple is cooking up!

  • Some iPhone users report high battery drain following iOS 14.6 update

    Happened to me on 14.6, but was due to YouTube background audio, safari background audio, and/or Heartfeed background audio. When I ensured those apps were closed before going to sleep, the battery drain issue went away. Haven’t had any problems with 14.7 beta.
