Isn't the Siri that is closest meant to respond to your command? My iPhone is beside me and starts listening for a second before the HomePod way over in the kitchen takes over and totally misinterprets what I'm asking.

50% of the time, our HomePod’s say “uh oh there’s a problem, please try again.” I try again and it works. Could be asking it for the weather, add a reminder, control the lights, or the time. My theory is that I’m on some sort of iOS 18 related A/B test because it’s just so weird how it all suddenly and completely stopped working.

This is not what I would expect. If you have Journaling Schedule enabled, you will receive the schedule notification even if you have notifications turned off. I realise that correctness is debatable here, but I would argue that Notification status should take precedence since that’s how it works in every other app. And it is the only way it could work in a non-Apple app.

Notifications off entirely for the Journal app.

I would love to be proven wrong but, in my experience, the best way to autoplay a full screen video on iOS is to use a WKWebView.

Lol at Dan Snaith putting the track Honey out as Caribou. Feels accidental. Dancy on main even. https://music.apple.com/au/album/honey/1734821034?i=1734821050

You ever tried to render an SVG in Swift? I’d say there’s a gap in the market except it also seems like nobody actually cares about rendering SVGs in Swift.

Do you all have a favourite Bluey episode? Mine is (currently) either Cricket or Octopus.

Here’s a check in on @tvforecastapp monthly recurring revenue. It is currently at $1,315 USD. The x axis of the screenshot is from April 2020 to today. I’ve seen consistent growth since the release of 2.0 in July of 2023. I’ve been releasing regular updates and doing my best to respond to user feedback, reviews and requests. I mostly do feedback-driven-development; I own the core concept for the app but its users inform where it should go next. This has (evidently) been working very well.

Just submitted FB13558005. EnumerableEntityQuery doesn't generate filter for entity properties. iOS 17 introduced EnumerableEntityQuery as a way to automatically generate a Find action for an entity. The bug is that it doesn't handle entity properties. For instance, if you have a CarEntity with a BrandEntity property, you'll end with screenshot 1; no way to select a brand. If you use the traditional (and more complicated) EntityPropertyQuery, you get screenshot 2.

A screenshots Find action that reads “Find [All Car] where [Brand] [is] [Brand]”. The Brand placeholder has been selected and displays all the available car brands.
