Am 14. Mai 2024 habe ich die Apple Vision Pro erstmals live gesehen, angefasst und ausprobiert. Diese sei hier fürs Protokoll festgehalten. Die Apple Vision Pro ist ein Produkt, das man mit eigenen Augen sehen und unbedingt ausprobieren muss, um eine persönliche Meinung zu diesem Gerät zu erhalten. Bis zum 14. Mai 2024…
Visited an #AppleStore today. It’s the first time in a few years I’ve been to one.
From the store layout, I came away with the impression that in the coming years, the desktop #Mac 🖥️ will be subsumed by #AppleVisionPro 🥽. Perhaps, even the #MacBook 💻 will be a thing of the past.
It has already been possible to change an #iPhone's default web browser through the "Settings" app since iOS 14.
#Apple has a March 6 legal deadline to introduce app sideloading in the European Union in order to comply with the Digital Markets Act #DMA, and iOS 17.4 will add support for this. #Sideloading will allow Apple users to download apps outside of the App Store, but the change will be limited to customers in the EU.
Now is an opportunity to improve your web experience… and your safety…
#EU#Apple#iOS#AppleStore#Interoperability: "Apple today announced changes to iOS, Safari, and the App Store impacting developers’ apps in the European Union (EU) to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The changes include more than 600 new APIs, expanded app analytics, functionality for alternative browser engines, and options for processing app payments and distributing iOS apps. Across every change, Apple is introducing new safeguards that reduce — but don’t eliminate — new risks the DMA poses to EU users. With these steps, Apple will continue to deliver the best, most secure experience possible for EU users.
The new options for processing payments and downloading apps on iOS open new avenues for malware, fraud and scams, illicit and harmful content, and other privacy and security threats. That’s why Apple is introducing protections — including Notarization for iOS apps, an authorization for marketplace developers, and disclosures on alternative payments — to reduce risks and deliver the best, most secure experience possible for users in the EU. Even with these safeguards in place, many risks remain.
Developers can learn about these changes on the Apple Developer Support page and can begin testing new capabilities today in the iOS 17.4 beta. The new capabilities will become available to users in the 27 EU countries beginning in March 2024."
"It was a rainy Autumn morning the day after Steve Jobs passed away in his sleep.....they came from around the world.....to give their last respects to a visionary who had changed the way we live....."
Why not meditate a minute or two while you’re waiting for the #AppleStore to come online so you can order the #iPhone announced at this week’s #AppleEvent? 🙃
Seriously though, this may feel stressful and exciting, so try to take a deep breath and be in present moment ☺️🧘
