Live activities are why I got a 14 pro max. I think iOS is going to change in a big way with the live activities and always on display.
Got a tip for us?

I apologize guys and girls but I could not hold my self😊
Freeform looks very useful. I had forgotten about it since the DubDub keynote. I'm looking forward to trying it out.
What can be observed is that the wrong ways of today were the right ways of yesterday, and the right ways of today will be the wrong ways of tomorrow. There would have been much less agony in the world if there had been more patience to just watch the magical process of change that everything in life in the here and now is.
Me too. A lot of these canvas/brainstorming apps from third-party developers have come and gone over the years, but having a first-party one from Apple is great news because it's guaranteed to be supported for the long term.
I find it weird... or at least unwise... that every June they announce all the new features of the upcoming iOS release.... and yet in reality you only get a subset of features on "launch day" in September.
This never used to be the case.....
But over the last couple of years.... its become the norm. For example in iOS15 we had to wait a whole 9 months (6 months after the September .0 release) before continuity was released.
And now, with iOS16 we have quite a lot of features (the most ever?) that didnt make the cut for 16.0. In fact as we all know now iPadOS16 was pulled completely and we have to wait for 16.1 to get the first iteration of the iPad software - again this is a first. We are used nowadays for MacOS to be delayed from the iOS release - which in itself is annoying as many features go hand in hand with iOS - but this has happened with iPadOS this year too.
Things are slipping.
Make you wonder whether they are being too ambitious in the June announcements now.
Personally, id be happier to skip a year and not release a major iOS update every september if it means that what we get is feature packed, and worth the wait.
The way its going now... you end up watching the presentation in June and then cynically thinking "yeah right.... but when will we actually get this feature.... .0? .1?, .2? .3 next year sometime?"
I wonder for many of these "missing" features in iOS16.... will we be waiting until March like continuity? If so... it does seem a little silly to announce June.... Release next March... then 3 months later announce the next version which you know full well now they wont release in full in September.

Looking for "massive overhaul to apple music app" but I guess you can just call me a dreamer...
Yeah, but Elon also solves the Ukraine war for you and can tell which rescue cave diver is a pedophile. Also mail-order flamethrowers!
Does this mean that there will finally be support for the Apple Pencil on iPhone? Or just in the Freeform app?
I see your point but I'd rather it just be part of Apple Music, just for neatness sake.
And we still can’t just put an icon on the screen in the place where we want it.
They’re following Google’s philosophy. Why have just one buggy, poorly maintained app when you can have two?
