If anyone has experience w/ #Apple Watch and sharing "Health Alerts": Daughter is having some heart issues. Going to the cardiologist but meantime I want to give her my old Apple Watch (series 5 but it works perfectly, even has decent battery). She has an iPhone. Hoping that the heartbeat monitoring (when her heartbeat goes…

Cue the "what are alternatives to #Pixelmator" takes. As a user for many years – using this instead of Photoshop – i'm neutral on this for now. If anyone HAD to buy it I would go with #Apple. Give Adobe maybe a run for their money.

This is big in #Apple world. Especially if you don't use #Adobe or #Photoshop. I paid for #Pixelmator and fond of it. https://9to5mac.com/2024/11/01/apple-reaches-deal-to-acquire-pixelmator/ 17 year old company… and how often does Apple do acquisitions like this? Almost never.

Legit complaints about #Apple exist but the M series of chips isn't one of them for me. Apple announced #M4 today but I have a M1 Air and MacMini in my family that will last for years. My M1 Max and M2 Air aren't slow in the least. Of course I'll upgrade eventually. But I…

Still catching up on #WWDC announcements but regarding the keynote I think #Apple did what was expected, and in the #Apple way (the good version). I think most of it was smart, practical, and with less (but not zero) "glue with pizza" possibilities. But it's all in the execution, which will remain to be seen.…

"Apple's AI Strategy in a Nutshell" https://nextword.substack.com/p/apples-ai-strategy-in-a-nutshell Interesting: "If most of #Siri interaction with the user ends with the user never opening any app, then this means apps have less discoverability and monetization opportunities." So app makers in a similar boat maybe as website folks with Google Search. Although I think app makers have more…

If #Apple truly calls it "Apple Intelligence" in the keynote that's already more clever branding and PR that what i've seen from #Google and #Microsoft. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-07/apple-wwdc-2024-what-to-expect-ai-ipados-18-macos-15-siri-updates-more

Next week #WWDC predictions? #AI wise easy: Nothing that's going to match or top Google, Microsoft. #Apple will focus on iterations and practical ways intelligence is incorporated into the OS. This will extract a cry of "Apple is behind on AI". Which they are. But not worried. They'e always been fast followers. If they don't…

TinyPod is a cool concept. I remember the early iPods and the later minis. https://9to5mac.com/2024/05/24/ipod-like-device-turns-strapless-watch-into-phone/ #iPod #AppleWatch #Apple

Everything #tech has an overhyped cycle (usually in the beginning of its introduction to a critical mass but not always). If youâre reading this on Mastodon then youâll likely rightly think about #AI #Apple etc. But also #Mastodon #ActivityPub #WordPress etc also had theirs. Maybe you werenât around for them. And these (and more) have…

#Apple news today: they are apparently NOT killing #webapps in #iOS in the EU. https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/03/01/apple-reverses-course-on-death-of-progressive-web-apps-in-eu Looks like the apps still need to be built with #WebKit (so not Chrome, etc.) – so basically same as before. I'm sure people will still rain down fire on Apple, but can't say they haven't listened to criticism.

There are times when #Apple being "secret" is frustrating to no end, but in the case of the Apple Car project that part of the culture did serve them well.

Apple opens up browsers in iOS 17.4, displays default web browser prompt. People have been wanting #Apple to open up, but I see a future where #Chrome being the top browser on #iOS. Or, put another way, #Safari marketshare given to Chrome. In a future where Firefox and other browsers' marketshare likely even smaller than…

Ah #WordPad. Introduced with Windows 95 in 1995. Goodbye buddy. https://www.theregister.com/2024/01/05/wordpad_off_windows_11/ Before I switched mostly to #Apple and #MacOS I was a big #Windows user and I had a big love/hate relationship with it.
