    I’ve always been fascinated by the web service called “Notion”. Anyone here using this platform? I’m wondering if this can be useful for me and how it would fit in my current workflows. Maybe I’ll open my account there and see how it goes.

    Yeah, Steve Jobs would have been 65 today. I’m kind of always asking myself: would Steve like to be remembered like this, every year, directly from the CEO of Apple? Anyways, I miss him a lot. #apple #stevejobs #sjobs twitter.com/tim_cook/…

    This leak supposedly showing iOS 14 running on an iPhone and showing the app switcher from the iPad… seriously, I hope we get to keep the current “card style” which I find better suited for the iPhone form factor and thumb based operations. #apple #ios14 #rumor #leaktwitter.com

    Today’s session of urban exploration was the first since I bought the iPhone 11 Pro last fall. As you might expect, going in with such a phone makes a great difference while shooting quick shots in dark places. This device is simply amazing (you can read my lengthy revew here btw).

    Just (re)discovered Camera+ during my urban exploration session today. How come I didn’t spend more time with this wonderful camera app?🤦🏻‍♂️ I should (and I will) write a review of this app as it will probably find a special place in my photo processing workflow. #photography.

    Going to my first urban exploration session of 2020 with two other friends. It’s been a long time. The place is not exactly very exciting but who knows what we will discover. We never really know how a session turns out. Stay tuned for a sample later today. #urbex #urbanexploration #photographer

    Thinking about buying ND filters for my camera. 77mm required. Variable density or discreet ones? 6-10 stops. #photography #gear #nikon

    My wife and I went for a walk today. Great weather. After a while, my wife says her Apple Watch asks permission to connect to my phone. I’m surprised. She didn’t bring her iPhone with her. I turned on hotspot on my iPhone. Just a few moments later, she get a phone call on the watch. She answer and start the conversation. How cool is that?

    I didn’t know the Apple Watch could do this… It has something to do with the fact that she is in the iCloud Family and this was a call using wifi calling from her cell phone provider through my own iPhone. I’m impressed by all the involved technologies behind this.

    I don’t know if I’m alone with this behaviour… are you one of these guys who keep unused (or very rarely used) apps on your devices? Do you keep them “just in case you need them”? I’m trying to change this behaviour and I created a folder called “On the way out”. 😳🤔😂😂

    Interesting newcomer in the note taking apps landscape: Noto - Elegant Note. Really nice design. Not sure about long term viability (remember Evernote?). Not sure about design scalability with a lot of notes. Another subscription to take care of. Not cheap for a young app. MacStories.net has more to say about it for sure. I’ll keep on eye on that one. apps.apple.com/ca/app/no…

    I almost forgot that I have a Podcast (in french). My last recording goes back to last summer. I didn’t mention it on my blogger workflow. Too insignificant I guess.

    I know this one is fake but if the rumoured iPhone 9, or iPhone SE// or whatever they call it looks like this fake model, I kind of like it… especially the edges that looks like the one on the iPad Pro. Get rid of the bezels and voilà! But it’s not going to happen. #apple #iphone twitter.com/WhatTheBi…

    One of the things that I don’t like with Apple Music.app is this: the visual feedback that comes with adding or loving a song. Too obstructive, too slow. Reminds me of the volume hud… that Apple finally got rid of with iOS 13. Oh, and by the way, why burry Add and Love in a sub-menu? Agree? #applemusic #apple #ui #ux #design

    Asking my dear network of friends: I’d like to be able to put a widget of Google analytics on my iPad home screen. Do you know of any iOS apps that can do this? I’ll pay for it if the design is up to my taste. Something along the line of this one (which is no longer being maintained). Thanks. 🙏🏻 apps.apple.com/ca/app/ga…

  • Is Microsoft surpassing Apple on the design front?

    Another prime example of Microsoft great efforts in designing visually appealing UI elements: icons. I love those very much. Can’t get out of my head the simple thought that they are getting better at design than Apple on the desktop OS front? Oh and pay attention to the mail icon design evolution from the very beginning to 2020.
