LLM on my iPhone? That sounds like a super interesting development. Suddenly, an iPhone with 1TB of storage might seem like a good buying decision, albeit expansive.
I’m happy to see Zavala is still being updated. 😊
I sometimes miss this type of user interface.
Apple Working on Software Fix to Avoid U.S. Apple Watch Import Ban https://www.macrumors.com/2023/12/18/apple-watch-import-ban-software-fix/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Honestly, the blood oxygen sensor on the Apple Watch isn’t very useful because of a lack of precision. I wouldn’t mind having it removed entirely.
There is also a chance that the MagSafe charging for the iPad that we’re hearing about refers to a Mac-like magnetic charger rather than an iPhone-style magnetic charger. Apple is working on a more Mac-like aluminum Magic Keyboard for the 2024 iPad Pro launch, and the new iPads will also use the same M3 chips that are in the MacBook Pro.

The next-gen iPad Pro looks more and more enticing by the day. A Mac-like MagSafe connector makes more sense to me. But I have a feeling this thing will be pricey!
Contingent pricing for subscriptions on the App Store — a new feature that helps you attract and retain subscribers — lets you give customers a discounted subscription price as long as they’re actively subscribed to a different subscription.
It’s often better to change something in a position of strength, not weakness. That is a good preemptive move by Apple, IMO.
Apple Pausing Sales of Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 in U.S. Due to Patent Dispute https://www.macrumors.com/2023/12/18/apple-pausing-series-9-ultra-2-sales-in-us/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Massive blow. We don’t get to see Apple stopping selling a product often.
That could be a clever tool for developers to attract new customers and subscribers with the following change to the App Store. I’m all for it.
Thought of the day: 500 years from now, when someone discovers a piece of plastic with a QRCode on it, intact and readable, I wonder what they will think of it and if they’ll try to “decode” the thing.
It’s Sunday; it’s time for the next weekly creative summary! Edition 2023-50 will be my last one… until 2024!1 The email version is coming up later today for my lovely subscribers! Expect some improvements in 2024! Stay tuned!

Were you afraid that it would be my last edition like forever? 😌 ↩︎
