I’m not so sure your example is the best at “bad common sense” - I can see a ton of use cases where this is useful for a lot of users. For example, you live in the suburbs next to a highway, and your route home is usually 15 min. You get th

I think this is part of what is holding back iPad software. You can't charge $100 for Sketch and lose $30 when someone asks for a refund. Apple designed this around $1-$10 apps where losing $2 at volume is fine. What is worse, is that

From using my app on iOS 14 it appears the way it works is based on you accessing the photos library. So it goes like this: Initial launch - user chooses a few photos. User switches apps, and returns - the same photos are selected. User for

I've moved to a 16" as well, the touchbar is fine IMO. The biggest issue before this update was just removing the escape key. I've mostly adjusted to switching caps lock to escape now because of it. My biggest disappointment

A lot of people are looking at this as a "replacement" for the iPhone SE (original) - but I don't think that is what this is. It is the "upgrade" that iPhone 6/6s/7 users have been waiting for. People that

Broader reach, Apple has this as the top story when you tap on the App Store. Plus a smoother/more consistent UI on their own platform. The website works fine on mobile but the app is way better.

The 12" Macbook is probably your best bet size and weight-wise, but it is now a bit outdated and definitely overpriced within Apple's lineup itself (Given the MBA has a 10th gen processor, better keyboard and is $300 cheaper than

I’m using it right now - it feels quite natural, and you can turn off the “snapping” effect if you want - the control will still highlight underneath, but you also still see the cursor. With the effect on the cursor “snaps” to button target

I’m on hacker news and replying to this on an iPad. My mac and windows desktop both have their place, but the iPad really does slot in as a “third” device between a full fledged desktop OS and my phone. I use it to take notes during meeting

They can, but I’ve literally never seen this used in practice as an iOS dev that is regularly trying out all the latest apps. These notifications go straight into Notification Center, which means if you never swipe down to look at notificat

iOS 12 and 13 improved notifications on the iPhone - you can now do the same thing (Swipe -> Manage and you can either turn off notifications for the app, or have them only show in Notification Center and not as a banner.) And a partial

I live in the same part of the country, and while everyone has a truck, I'd say about 1 out of 5 owners actually use them for utility purposes. The rest are pristine showroom objects that have never even touched a gravel road, let alon

I think people are missing something - the shape is part of why it can perform as well as it can, as well as have the excess of cabin space that it has. The boxy Land Rover design wouldn't get close to the 0-60 times (And likely reduce

I used to shoot wedding video as a side-gig, and I had a range of cameras from the T2i to the 6D. I also owned a few P&S just for fun. Since the 7 Plus I have sold all my P&S cameras. The only advantage they have now is the longer r

I've never had issues with iOS - discovery is near immediate every time. The only time I've had issues is when sharing with random people that have it set to contacts only and we haven't shared a contact, or if someone turned

And the other big problem - that is $5 a year just for your own devices. I have plenty of ways to move files from one machine to another, but if I have a file that I want to give to a family member sitting next to me, or a co-worker across

It does exist, I have an app that manipulates photos and if you reject photos permission you can still use the photo picker and get access to one photo of the user's choice. You can't directly save to the photos library, but you c

Or make it even simpler - split read and write access. Camera/Photos are already split, but I should have the ability to let an app save a photo without having to grant it complete access to my photo library.

Also: Either shorten it by one button and keep physical escape key, or move it up and return the entire half height function row.

This should include "2015" in the title to be less click-baity.

My guess would be 1.0, since WatchOS is now 6.0.

Makes sense for Mazda - they already disable the touchscreen while the car is in motion, so might as well save a few bucks and get rid of it entirely.

I currently use a Mac Pro with eGPU for mobile development, it is super fast and near silent (Unless the GPU is being pushed.) Even still, I'd much prefer a $2-3k Mac Pro-lite tower with i7/i9 CPU options, a few RAM slots and half

The solution I believe still lies in Apple's court. Say you have an app that is a niche app with a 7 day free trial and a one-time purchase. How does this look to the user? Exactly like every other freemium/ad riddled/subscri

by jclardy 7y ago
iOS does as well. An app can use the system photo picker to allow the user to select a single/multiple photos without having "Photos" permission. The problem is that granting full save permission also grants read permission,

As someone with an iPad Pro - Yes, definitely. There are so many sites that are just plain broken on mobile safari. Actually, even Apple's own developer site is terrible on iOS. Views that should scroll to let you see content just plai

A storefront making a profit is perfectly fine as long as they aren't the only storefront that can exist.

Agreed, but with my Mazda. Maybe it is an older model? Mine is 2015. The only annoyance I have with it is if you are in a double left turn lane and actually use your signals. It'll beep at you since it detects a car and doesn't kn

Yes on the line - Apple has seemingly wanted to eliminate lines from their stores, only to the detriment of their customers. Lines are useful for knowing how long a wait time is...instead you get put into invisible queues around the store a
