Dude, watch the video. This wasn’t done by Apple. It was modded by ELO, a company which is still around today. They made it for shopping centre payment stations and other similar use cases. And frankly, from the looks of it in the video, it worked just as well as they do today (which is to say mediocre at best).

Parcel (all platforms): the best shipment tracker you’ll ever use

Solves (all platforms): it’s basically identical to the built in calculator but is 1,000,000x better

Music Library Tracker (iOS, iPadOS): keeps track of the change in your Apple Music library and can automatically make a spatial audio playlist for you

Mlem (iOS, iPadOS): the best Lemmy client

Vinegar (all platforms): a Safari extension that makes YouTube use the native video player, adds PiP for free and removes ads!

Baking Soda (all platforms): replaces custom video players in other sites with the native one

Crouton (all platforms): a natively built recipe manager. I don’t use it much but it’s really well made

MacWhisper (macOS): uses openAI’s whisper model to create super accurate transcriptions of audio and video files

Monitor Control (macOS): allows you to control the brightness of external monitors (other than Apple’s)

Calipers Tape Measure (iOS): a super accurate set of Calipers for your iPhone

Cric Pulse (iOS): the only cricket app with live activities

While Apple may not be perfect when it comes to privacy, they are objectively better for privacy than just about every other manufacturer as it’s profitable to their business model

This is an app clip suggestion based on your location. Siri suggestions can suggest things based on many factors such as location, time of day, recent apps, etc. These suggestions can be things like opening an app or texting someone. All of that processing is done on your device. As I said, this is for an App Clip based on your location. An app clip is like a mini app designed to do one single task. For instance, an app clip might be for paying for fuel at a petrol station. App clips are designed to be extremely small so you can download it quickly and easily and the delete them when you’re done. So in summary, you’re seeing a Siri suggestion to download an app clip that is linked to that nearby church. It’s probably some touristy thing. You can change all of your Siri suggestion settings under Settings > Siri & Search

Previously, you’d just tap (done) and it would simply close the report window without any confirmation whatsoever that the report had actually been submitted

I don’t use Bing search (who would?). But Bing chat is honestly really good

[-] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Bing chat is actually really good. Way better than Bard. It’s legit just ChatGPT with web access

This will be the 5th smallest expansion covering around 171,000 square kilometres and 16.5 million people

Apparently, after this expansion, there will only be four countries which have been surveyed by Apple but have yet to be released including Japan, Thailand, Mexico, and the U.A.E.

You think we should just destroy millions of dollars worth of cutting edge internet architecture which aids rural communities have usable internet globally because you don’t like the guy who paid for it? Seriously?

I have to agree. Especially with that last one. The amount of cynical and/or pessimistic people on here making up a strong vocal (hopefully) minority is really disappointing

Mines broken from top to bottom. The amounts are wrong, the UI is broken the buttons don’t work the graph is all deformed

Still no where near as good as it was pre iOS 14. It’s just a pop-out animation and it’s specifically for areas where the menu pops out from a button such as in the music app’s now playing screen

That’s ”open dyslexic”. As far as I’m aware, it’s a don’t specifically designed to be easily readable by dyslexic people

I think Mlem is on track to be better than Apollo was at this rate. You gotta remember, Apollo had been released and in continued development for years. Mlem is around 2 months old

Back on reddit, we had a thriving community for Apple Maps, so I decided to make one here on Lemmy for all the map lovers out there who use Apple Maps or anyone who needs help with it!

I’ve just installed the unreleased iPadOS version into the visionOS simulator! It’s pretty cool! (I am not affiliated with Mlem Group at all for the record)
