Bloomberg: Apple Watch to Get Standalone App Store, iOS 13 Will Have All-New Sleep Mode, and More

Why not allow third party devs to create fresh watch faces and sell them on the new AW App Store? The existing ones have grown pretty stagnant IMO.
The big push for the unification of iOS and MacOS has begun. Shame on you Apple. It’s going to become Windows 10. A bloated, unoptimized pig.
Nothing like commenting on the future performance of a yet-to-be-release software approach, based on a rumor.

How is 15 sillier than 14? Or 13?
So we're still stuck with four icons per row, including the bottom row?
No Google search bar?
Keyboard still doesn't have a numbers row???

Yeah, the mail app definitely needs a major overhaul. It’s actually on the pathetic side. No surprise it’s getting revamped. More optimization for the larger display of the iPad is always welcome, or more to the point, way overdue. Dark mode FINALLY!!!

I’m not sure giving each major release a name would be any better. Might as well stick to using numbers.
Good. Nothing worse than having Do Not Disturb on via your phone and your iPad going ding, ding, ding.

Yeah, how about being able to rotate a PDF? Deleting pages and combining files should also be available and are essential pro device functions. I shouldn’t have to go to a Mac just to do these things.

Not saying you wouldn’t, I just personally don’t see a swipe as a big deal. I’d rather not have a list of widgets on my lock screen every time I pick up the phone. If anything, some complications would be ideal.
If there's one thing I'd say would simply and easily take the Watch to the next level it wold be opening it up for third-party watchfaces.
Excellent. Can’t understand what took them so long to realise having two incompatible OSs was a really stupid idea.

Quite the opposite. Leaks are a tried and trusted way of building up interest in carefully choreographed announcements. I’m still waiting for the “accidental” screenshot to be discovered in one of the beta versions.
I’ll definitely be the one waiting for some time to install it on my main phone, but will try it out on the 6s that I have as a backup.
Are there enough of such people suffering from said condition to put a dent in adoption numbers?
Because then you get flooded with crap like this.
The Apple Watch may not have that many watch faces to choose from, but they are generally all quite tastefully done.
A revamped ___ app that: either has a feature it always should’ve had, or has a new feature that you can’t even remember the second you finish reading its description. Oh, and “stickers” support! I bet all the five year-olds that aren’t supposed to be using phones and tablets anyway are going to freak out in excitement! Bring it on!!!

‘Exceptionally dull` is probably a better description.

Wow, what a big leak. Its almost as if none of us were able to see any of this coming!
Mac OS updates seem underwhelming. I can definitely live without stickers and more emoji. But i would love to see snappier animations (especially for switching between spaces). Or how about previews of minimized windows? I think application window management hasn’t changed in over 5 years.
Ok.. those "tool" updates are more and more boring because there's less and less to add. Better?
This is where you are wrong. iOS was first developed to compete against blackberries and Nokias. Now its supposed to be a PC replacement.. See the problem? Everyone who reviewed the iPad Pro said the hardware is top notch but the problem is the software is incapable. iOS was never written for PRO work it was a cellphone software, it wasn't even supposed to have an App Store.
A lot of times I find myself going to the laptop for things as simple as doing web browsing stuff, just yesterday my printer told me I need to run diagnosis via MacOS software.

There was a video of Jobs explaining how OS 9 was written for a different era and as things developed they kept adding stuff to it and supporting legacy code and it became this freak kind of monster that is heavy with all these additions. I can't find it, but thats why they abandoned it and made the funeral and jumped to OS X.
The same is here, iOS was a blackberry competitor... now its supposed to be running Photoshop for PROs. Not going to work.
That's not the case at all with iOS. They drop support for legacy devices every year (although Apple has done a nice job supporting devices for years, that's a positive). There is no reason to drop iOS as it's a very efficient, highly successful platform.
iOS wasn’t created to compete with blackberry or Nokia, iOS replaced them, you know because iOS is based on Mac OS X which is Unix based.
Blackberry and Nokia smartphones were rtos based, not Unix.
Apple bought next, that’s what OS X is based on, nextstep not os9.
So yes photoshop will run on iOS they demoed it last year.
Your knowledge on the matter is rather lacking.
Yea I did that too, but then THINGS imported all those reminders and it got confusing and annoying
As long as it’s a “full version”
