"iCloud only includes 5 gigabytes of data for free, which for many people is just enough for a single device backup." Not for people who use the camera.

> "Angry Birds" once again launched much quicker under iOS 12, taking 40 seconds compared to 41. 

A 1 second improvement on a 41 second scale is not “much quicker”. Overall great article, thanks!

I most often take accidental screen shots when I am using one hand to put the phone to sleep or using one hand to raisie the volume. The fix doesn’t seem to address that. 

The other day I spoke to my nearby iPhone X and asked Siri to set a timer for 3 minutes. When the timer was done I told Siri “Do that again.” Siri responded by saying “hang on let me listen... hmm I don’t recognize that song.”

I then asked my nearby Echo’s Alexa to set a timer for 3 minutes. When it was done I told Alexa “Do that again” and it immediately set another timer for 3 minutes. 

I love Apple but am disappointed the Siri is falling so far behind in the basics. It feels like Siri is a soon to be discontinued product and that Apple has moved onto other things like Augumented Reality. 

How come Steve Jobs' estate isn't suing for confusion?
