I would be amazing if I could “Mac Mirror” from an iPad Pro just like I can from Vision Pro, but it would run from my MacBook sitting closed in my backpack

It would be the perfect portable computer on planes, coffee shops, etc where I’m more than happy to give up the big screen

airjohnpro,
@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@charliemchapman YES! And this would go a long way to quiet some of the concerns that don’t seem to go away, while maintaining the need to have both devices. (Which Apple seems to not want to limit.)

YouTube wouldn't build an app for the Apple Vision Pro, so I did! Introducing Juno, an Apple Vision Pro app for YouTube, now available at http://juno.vision 📺🥽

@christianselig Thank you, kind sir.

@christianselig Just incredible. Purchased before the  Vision Pro even arrived.

Five months after I purchased my AirPods, I’m still seeing this popover daily on multiple devices. Whyyyyyy 😕

@siracusa Same, and I tried everything.

So say visionOS launches without the ability to download ‘key’ apps like Netflix, YouTube, TikTok, Google Docs, Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Ivory, etc, how excited would you still be for the platform?

iPad was bootstrapped off of iPhone's success, and there was no meaningful opt-out for apps so basically everything ran on day one, and there was a strong incentive for devs to port to native. Giving a checkbox to opt out of visionOS, though, I feel is going to prove to be a huge mistake

I have a very strong suspicion that Vision Pro app compatibility is gonna be rough in this first year. Like, Windows Store rough.

@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@stroughtonsmith The apps will come when they are ready, and until then, we have a web browser.

Do we know if we'll be allowed to finance the Apple Vision Pro via Apple Card? I'm still not sure if I'm getting this and I def could buy it outright (but why bother if you have 0% interest as an option) but I also just spent $6k on a MBP so… https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/01/apple-vision-pro-available-in-the-us-on-february-2/

Some AI I’d love to see in OS 18 is automatically straightening the horizon in the landscape photos the Photo Shuffle Lock Screen finds.

Or I suppose I could do a better job when I take ‘em. I’m so often soo close but just not exactly right.

@_Davidsmith I love using your photos as wallpaper. Have you shared that one before?

After 1047 days, my AirPods Max might be dead. 💀🎧
They fail to connect to devices 80% of the time, often requiring 2-3 factory resets before repairing. Battery drain is also an issue; they'll drop 80-90% overnight, even inside their case.

airjohnpro,
@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@BasicAppleGuy Seeing some of the same issues with mine. Draining like crazy when not in use. It’s partly why I was expecting an update to them by now.

iPadOS is definitely not stable enough for power users.

My entire device experience is slowed down because I have too many widgets – the more you use it, the worse it gets

https://mastodon.social/

airjohnpro,
@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@matthewcassinelli Curious if in your experience the Mac can handle the same number of widgets better? Can macOS even support more than one desktop worth of widgets? (I’m not yet on Sonoma.)

Although I want iPadOS to work well for everyone, the dozens of pages of widgets I have seen some trying to use does not feel like an expected use case. I’m also not sure it speaks to the actual “power” of the OS.

Again, I do want iPadOS to handle anything power users and average users can throw at it.

airjohnpro,
@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@matthewcassinelli Makes sense. Thanks for explaining your thoughts.

Looking forward to see where both macOS and iPadOS go in the coming years.

Stumbled across this 'used' iPhone 12 Leather case on eBay for only $18. Case has "some signs of cosmetic wear" and "is cracked ever so slightly".

@BasicAppleGuy It looks like it went to Mars and back.

Using the 15 Pro Max feels so nice. It’s so comfortable to hold.

I think this is easily the best big phone Apple has made. If you’ve ever been Max-curious, now’s the time to jump on board. 🫡

airjohnpro,
@airjohnpro@mastodon.social avatar

@imyke I have been using a Max size since the 12-series. I keep thinking that I mistakenly got a 15 Pro (non-Max). The size and weight improvements are quite noticeable.

@matthewcassinelli I’m using LockFlow to launch Shortcuts from StandBy mode. It requires FaceID authentication and launches the Shortcuts app before running.

Have you found a better way to trigger Shortcuts from StandBy mode?

@macrumors The Ultra 1 had a 2-2.5 day battery for me. The Ulra 2 is clearly a 4-day battery champ.

Apple's Weather app is low-key becoming a pretty solid solution for weather nerds.

Here's our story on all the changes coming to Weather in iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma: https://www.macstories.net/reviews/the-weather-app-adds-more-detailed-data-in-ios-17-ipados-17-and-macos-sonoma/

Without a Feels Like default temperature option like @mercury, Apple Weather is useless to me.

I found an excuse to write about Tears of the Kingdom on @macstories 😄

If you're playing the game and taking notes, you have to try the TotK Travel Guide app by @jeffreykuiken. Great UI inspired by Apple Maps with a built-in note-taking system for locations in the game. Syncs with iCloud, has a single $4 In-App Purchase, and it supports the 3 different maps of the game. I love this.

My review: https://www.macstories.net/reviews/totk-travel-guide/

@viticci @macstories @jeffreykuiken Highly recommend. It helped me find the last shrine I needed. It is far better polished than others.

Me when I fully dialed up the immersion with the Digital Crown and I’m watching a 3D spacial video memory, but someone rudely steps in and breaks the illusion.

@rafa l’ve been playing most of the day. Never once did I even think about what the resolution was. Handheld (Switch OLED) and docked (48” LG OLED).
