I assume it was just Apple blasting the ad to everyone because they have a big investment in the film, but it is in poor taste. Reminds me a bit of the U2 album showing up in everyone’s music library, though perhaps a bit less intrusive in a way. Apple seems to lack focus right now. They keep distracting themselves with things that they shouldn’t bother with (the Apple car) and releasing products in half finished states. I am a bit worried about Liquid Glass. It feels half baked in a way I am not sure I have seen such shoddy design work from Apple before, even in a beta.

The U2 album was odd, but not bad in the same league. Apple didn’t advertise for you to purchase U2’s music. As an end user, what made it annoying was how the U2 album was part of your library (thus, would show up in shuffle, etc.) and removing it was a whole ordeal. This wallet notification was silly. Prior to this, I believed that their wallet app would give notifications much like how settings app would: rarely and without commercial intent.
