How much memory the video subsystem of an ARM-based Mac will have?

Very interesting but improbable theories…. twitter.com/stroughto…

I’ve been thinking a lot about the limited support of widgets in iPadOS 14. While waiting for an answer from Craig Federighi (see previous posts), I think I know why. The way Apple introduced widgets in iPadOS 13 kind of put themselves in a “bad design choice” corner. Take an iPad with iPadOS 13 in … read more

With iOS 14 Beta 1, I don’t see any announced feature that won’t make it in the final GM release. This is good. 👌🏻

My first email to Apple’s top lieutenant: Craig Federighi. Yep, I did it, following my recent blog post. Now, waiting for a possible answer.🤞🏻 numericcitizen.me/2020/07/0…

If iPhone 12 launch is effectively delayed by a few weeks or months, could Apple decide to release iOS 14 for currently shipping devices while we wait for iPhone 12? It would be a first for Apple, but I certainly hope so. #iphone12 9to5mac.com/2020/07/0… read more

Great comments about iOS 14 from Benjamin Mayo. “Widgets on the home screen are just perfect.” bzamayo.com/ios14-fir…

Marques Brownlee interviews Craig Federighi. As @Gruber points out, the killer question: why no calculator on iPad.

Now, why iPadOS 14 doesn’t allow “free” placement of widgets would have been a much better killer question IMHO. www.youtube.com/watch

Interesting tidbits here about iPhone apps running on macOS 11. How many devs will “port” their iPhone app to Mac remains to be seen. Can’t wait for the future. twitter.com/_inside/s…

Apple is always about moving forward, even if it means rewriting its own software countless times or breaking things. We pay them, as customers, to make these choices. #apple sixcolors.com/link/2020…

Simple and eayto implement idea. birchtree.me

iOS 14 Could Make Changing Your Wallpaper Much Easier

I’m no longer an indie developer but looking at SwiftUI videos from WWDC is really interesting. What a cool technology.

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

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 … read more

Putting the final touches to my WWDC20 conference comments and review. More than 3000 words. Hope you like to read. #wwdc #wwdc20 #wwdc2020

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

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 … read more

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 … read more
