Look at money man over here. Showing off his two tongs.

I believe the iOS Mail app is getting a UI redesign before the end of the year.

Do most smart TVs still allow performing updates via USB? I have an older LG TV which does this.

I dunno what you’re talking about. Stock dialer has it for me.

Bad jokes aside, is this really not a standard feature? I would’ve thought this would’ve been more common.

You don’t carry a laptop around while you’re hiking?

This might be due to how easy Apple makes it to implement this sort of thing. Even if the app isn’t on the App Store.

On iOS, apps must be on the App Store, which requires being enrolled in the Apple developer program. I imagine developers then make their apps paid to cover this.

This is what AI is for.

Either that or they have 20 useless extensions.

Reverse engineering Touch ID might be a lot more difficult than it looks. It does not behave like any other laptop’s fingerprint reader, and even those often don’t work right with Linux out-of-the-box.

It’s likely many users still use Automator (which is from 2005). Removing it could break workflows for many people if removed. There’s a bunch of older apps in macOS like this. The latest version of macOS still has AirPort Utility, for example.

Actually, using a Mac with coconutBattery plugged into an iOS device allows you to see the date the battery was manufactured and the cycle count. I imagine there might be other software to pull this information off an iPhone.

This then raises the question why Apple couldn’t show this information within iOS on older models. It obviously has access to this battery information.

Going a little off-topic, how old is your battery?

I’m sitting at 80% battery health on my 13 Pro, and the battery life definitely reflects that.
