  • Siri is superpowered with Apple Intelligence

    Homekit is the redhead step child as usual.

  • Siri is reborn in iOS 18 -- everything Apple's voice assistant will be able to do

    No mention of improvements to the Home app. Specifically the ability to give commands to turn on / off multiple devices with a single verbal command. Ex, Siri, turn on lamp one and two. Sad

  • Some Apple HomeKit setups are breaking after iOS 16.2 update

    The option to expand the size of the geofence seems to have been removed. Now my floodlights no longer turn on until I’ve pulled completely into the garage. I want my floodlights to illuminate my driveway. How do you expand the geofence now??

  • Apple TV drops 'Up Next' in new design rolling out to users

    I wish they would add a Live TV Guide that pulls together a list of what's streaming now from all your subscribed sources like Hulu, Philo etc.  Would be awesome if they could include OTA content for your locals if you have HDHomeRun as well.  This is something that FireTV is already doing.

  • Apple TV app on smart TVs now streams in HDR10+

    Why can’t they add HDR10+ to the older AppleTV streamers?  You don’t need the A15 for that. 
    Maybe because older ATV streamers are connected to older TVs that don’t support HDR10+? And only Samsung and a couple of other TVs (TCL, Hisense) support HDR10+ right now. And as the article points out, there’s almost no HDR10+ content available while Dolby Vision is widely accepted as better than HDR10+. HDR10+ is a fork of HDR developed by Samsung and Panasonic mainly because they didn’t want to pay the licensing fees for Dolby Vision and thought they could do better. Dolby Vision is also a fork of HDR developed and licensed by Dolby Labs of course.

    Actually I was referring to the older streamers as last years model (2021) with the A12. I would venture to say that the majority of them are connected to TVs that support HDR10+

    I seem to recall Apple announcing support long ago and expected support on the A12 model.
