Hmm... you can't set up Do Not Disturb to turn on during those times? I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm just surprised because I've experienced the exact opposite. As I've gotten busier, the watch has helped m

I like that feature but, for some reason, I always have issues answering the call on my watch. It doesn't happen every time but it happens often enough that looking at new routers and cell carriers. From what I can tell, no one else I

I used to be a huge fan of the FitBit. I've got multiple FitBits from multiple product lines (meaning I have more than 1 of the same device for multiple devices) and I have all the accessories that went with them (Aria scale, watches,

What's your use case for the notifications? I took some time to pick which notifications get sent where and it helps me keep off social media and keeps me focused on what I'm doing. If it doesn't come to the watch, it's

This is the same for me. I don't know what it is about it but when I get the notification that there's an award available for a certain holiday or season, I have to get it. I don't really even share that I've gotten th

>if this is news Now the goal posts have moved a little. The reason this is in the news is because a third-party contractor did this. This is not Apple's policy and I expect that the contractor has voided their contract with Apple.

You can. There's an option on the Siri response to edit both your request and the words you used in the request.

That's odd. I bought a Switch at launch and my dock's working fine. n=1 and all but it's worked great and I dock/undock my Switch nearly every day. I use it mostly like my cell phone - plug it in at night and grab it in

So just use the dock that comes with the Switch and you're fine? I don't see what the issue is...

I was going to say the same. They call out a few products that I doubt were misses because of Jony Ive. He may have been involved with them but to say that they were misses because of the work he did on them is a little...misleading.

Even a docking station would suffer from the same problem because people would just put the mouse onto the dock every time they were done using it. Also, I don't think contact charging is as fast as cable charging. The point is to only

They have. Apple supported the policy development and language of the GPDR in the EU and has publicly come out as saying that it's the standard by which the US should operate also. The GPDR not only shows that it understands what'

Considering that you can actively monitor network traffic and, essentially, prove that Apple does not send your data (at least in any unencrypted form) to their servers, they seem to be talking the talk when it comes to security and privacy

This is exactly what came to mind when reading this article. Not only that but, if you actually read the bills that these politicians are suggesting, they are so ignorant of what actually happens in the real world with people's privacy

Agreed. Even when the article discusses the disagreements that Apple has with policy-makers related to these laws, they're leaving out exactly why Apple is at ends with these people. Namely, these politicians don't actually unders

They didn't remove the application. They removed the mechanism by which that application was circumventing user intervention (which does actually remove the application). It's almost like a company refusing to take chinless credit

Look at what just happened with Zoom. The web server could be used by a malicious third-party to gain access to the system.

I have to call BS on this. Are you claiming that users can't complete a single prompt of "[Your browser] needs to open an external application to follow this link. (Decline) (Launch Application)"? That seems really unlikely.

I don't think that's the rationale behind this. If a user is clicking a link to start a BlueJeans session, then it's not against the user's prior wishes anymore. It's the user's current wish to start a BlueJean
