Does the maturing of SwiftUI is an enabler for an iPad version of Xcode? This version of Xcode would be leaving behind ObjC and “legacy” stuff and create SwiftUI-only apps, is it a reasonable thinking? #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 #apple #ios #ipados
On Siri updated design #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 #ios14
I like the new Siri design but I don’t like it after all. The animated sphere placement feels wrong as it leave space on top of it on which we cannot interact. Siri answers and feedbacks onscreen position feel very inconsistent. Sometimes it will appear at the top with another smaller banner at the bottom. Sometimes only a banner at the top.

This is what Apple could or should have put online with the watch face sharing ability in iOS 14 and watchOS 7. Really cool initiative. #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 twitter.com
My thought of the day: We’ll never see iPad in size larger than 12.9 inches because larger devices like this could be an ARM Mac with large screen AND touch support. #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 #apple
I’m fed up of Apple bragging about its 2 millions apps in the App Store. I fuckin don’t care because we all know the vast majority is pure crap or of very low value.
There, I said it. #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020
iOS 14 Widgets and Anxiety #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020
Following the reveal of widgets support on iOS 14, I’m feeling anxiety over how I’will “design” my home screens coming this fall. The same kind of feeling related to my Apple Watch watch face design, btw.
What role will play the App Library? Will I reduce my reliance on folders for organizing my apps and add more pages that I can hide as needed? How many pages reserved for widgets only will I create and for which use case?
Decision, decision, decision.
The Secret Feature of Upcoming ARM-Based Mac #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 #apple
Wild dream of the day: what if a silent yet unannounced feature of the ARM-based Mac is touch support? Looking at one of the WWDC session video called “Adopt the new look of macOS Big Sur”, spacing of many UI elements certainly feels in preparation of touch support introduction. Plus, iPhone apps running unmodified on these machines would feel at home with touch support.
On macOS Big Fur surprising visual and design attributes #wwdc #wwdc20
Taken out of one of @gruber recent post.
In red: the Cancel button looks like being disabled. Very bad.
The menu bar transparency, why? Is Apple trying to make us forget about this distinctive UI element?
In yellow: the window title being no longer at the center, to make room for buttons (that look less and less like buttons)…
In green: a depth effect with surrounding shadow, thumbs up. General look of the refresh popup dialog, very iOS is refreshing on the Mac.
For those wondering… I’m still trying to wrap my head around the start of the WWDC20 week, started by this exceptional opening keynote. So far, the best words for describing my feelings are “a near perfect balancing act”. #apple #wwdc20 #wwdc2020 #wwdc
Stay tuned for more.
