There is a lot to like about some of the iOS 19 redesign mockups, but the “rounder” app icons is certainly not one of them. 🤢

Looking at iOS 18.5 and I find that Apple is slow at iterating on AI. Nothing really new in AI. No mention of model improvements. Only a few things like turning off Mail automatic classification. I would have expected a much faster pace.

I’m again tempted by an Oura ring. One big showstopper: the mandatory annual subscription. 😒

It’s the time of the year when iOS feels the most stable. I’m liking iOS 18.4.

Apple users looking to improve their security posture? Here’s a guide that I wrote and shared recently.

Gurman: Jon Prosser’s iOS 19 Mockups ‘Aren’t Representative’ of Redesign - MacRumors

To be honest, Prosser’s video gives a very limited peak at iOS 19 redesign. More than 3 min 30 sec of introduction followed by a sponsor segment then followed by a short discussion about four limited mockups. Not his best work.

WWDC25: Still entirely online? No in-person labs or sessions? Only the keynote to be live? Is that it? Oh, and this glassy font, I’m not too fond of that.

So AirPods Max will get new audio features. The fact that only the USB-C model will support this is utterly frustrating, and I wish someone will sue Apple for that. Reason? When Apple launched the USB-C model last year, I don’t recall them saying there were upcoming features that wouldn’t apply to the Lightning port model. It looked like the only difference was the charging port. It appears that’s not the case, or Apple is trying to limit the features artificially to the new model.

Today, I’ve been to an Apple Store in Ottawa, Canada. My daughter in law bought a M4 MacBook Air. I even forgot to check the new blue Air! I wasn’t expecting this: I’m no longer excited to go visit an Apple Store. Times are changing.
