Here is a very classic Apple thing. So Apple. When “form” is taking over everything, even common sense. But, hey, these wheels are great looking, right? twitter.com/MKBHD/sta…
Apple fixing the iPad Pro with... a redesigned keyboard with a trackpad. Really?
It will take much more than a redesigned keyboard for the iPad Pro to make it a viable solution to fully replace a laptop in many business or even personal use cases. It will take fixes to iPadOS: discoverability, multitasking, real mouse pointer, etc. [Report: Apple releasing iPad Pro Smart Keyboard with built-in trackpad this year - 9to5Mac](9to5mac.com/2020/02/2…
If Apple decides to postpone WWDC2020 (because of COVID19], it could mean, for the first time in a while, Apple will ship new features at the same time of their announcement this fall. Just sayin. #apple #iosdev #WWDC #WWDC2020

A bit hold but still relevant. On the pervasive use by Apple of the ellipsis in iOS.

I’m not on beta this time for iOS / iPadOS. I can’t remember when was the last time my devices were not running a non-beta release. 😳🤔
If true, this would put the final nail in the coffin for depending on a computer to do full reset of a device. Just like on the Mac. Can’t wait. #apple #ios134 www.macrumors.com/2020/02/2…
On macOS Catalina dialog bureaucraty
Security is not an easy thing to implement without adding layers and burden to the end-users. Same thing goes with added hardware features (like TouchID) which translate in added steps in the setup assistant. They do require setup. Is there a solution to all this? More features, less choices, same bureaucraty? pxlnv.com/blog/cata…
A new and interesting concept for iPadOS multitasking
Another iPadOS multitasking concept appeared on Twitter. First, this is an intersting starting point to redo multitasking on the iPad. Very simple gesture: single tap as it should be. My guess is that developers wouldn’t need to update their app in order to support this new model. It does fix the problem of finding the second app to bring in. Second, how the hell do they make these animations? How do we bring this to Apple’s attention? twitter.com/Rutherlin…
