The thing that I find surprising is the position of eBay. I can’t remember the last time I used this service. Same for people around me. Apple.com is No.4 in U.S. e-commerce market share macdailynews.com/2020/03/0…

On Apple and Default Apps
I have some doubts that Apple will feel the pressure to up their game with the stock apps because they allow third-party apps to act as default ones. Why? What do they lose in case of status quo? Keeping pressure on them with constructive comments as bloggers has more effects. Why? It comes down to public image management. On Apple Letting Users Switch Default Apps on iOS chambyte.net/on-apple-… Continue reading →

The sad state of buying software these days. I did pay for Enlight back then. Deleted. Too bad, it was great while it lasted.

On iOS 13’s Share Sheet Design - Better? Worst?
The share sheet design in iOS 13: I find it confusing. 🤷🏻♂️ It is a step ahead of iOS 12 but yet I’m not satisfied and I don’t know why exactly. The inclusion of Shortcuts is ok but should they have been put in a separate section? Also missing in iOS 13: a way to maximize/minimize popover windows like this one. I understand the need to keep sight of context of invocation. Continue reading →

Well, yes, thank you to all developers
I was an indie developer from 2009 to 2013. I made three apps that got me about $5000 in revenue. I don’t know how much per hour this represents. I loved this time of my life where after a long work day I would sit in front of my Mac to learn Obj-C, Interface Builder, etc. until later in the night. Now, I can really appreciate what it is like to build apps and let the world know about them. Continue reading →

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… Continue reading →

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
