iOS 17 Rumored to Feature Wallet and Find My Improvements, macOS 14 to Be Minor Update

Monterey often asks me to approve unverified publishers’ installations. It can be in a form of “Are you sure you want to run X file downloaded from the Internet” or I may need to allow the installation in Settings > Security. Also, to install anything non signed off by Apple, I needed to enable the very option in Settings > Security shortly after installing the OS.

"bunch of warning messages", huh?

I will be very surprised if Europe would allow apple to steal a set percentage of developers income even if they don’t publish on the apple App Store.

Prepare to be surprised, moron! Apple spends billions developing, supporting and maintaining their OS, and you want free access to their developer tools and customers? Who is the thief here? And, if your App is so great, go develop it for Android instead and see if you can make money there. Freeloaders like you want the affluent customers that Apple cultivated, but are too cheap to pay for the access.

It’s just a figure of speech as “Apple will have you covered.” After all, Apple are directly interested in people actively using their App Store vs any third party distribution channels.

sad about macOS 14 being a minor update. It will be the third consecutive one that doesn’t really bring much to the table.

If we are going by Gurman opinion concerning MacOS 14 and what it has to offer, I would dare say he has no knowledge of anything aside from possible hardware rumor tidbits he could relate as going by Fridays show.

I’m sure there will be a way around this in the US, unless Apple is going to start shipping a separate version of iOS just for the EU. Either that or the market for importing European iOS devices to the US is about to skyrocket

Isn't that specific just a rumor also? (EU only sideloading)

This long rant you wrote ignores the fact that in civilised countries apple is not the law. Apple can scream and shout all it wants, but at the end of the day the lawmakers will set the limits of what it can and cannot do. I will be very surprised if Europe would allow apple to steal a set percentage of developers income even if they don’t publish on the apple App Store.

So countries can dictate to ignore licensing now? Wow. I missed this news announcement. Copyright is a universal law.

This is the equivalent of saying I can use anyone’s copyrights for free without paying them a dime and throws out all copyrights. It’s literally how the world works. You want to build a piece of software that uses an Oracle or Microsoft SQL backend? You pay for the license for the database. How much you pay can be negotiated. But a foreign country doesn’t set that price.

It’s not some rant. A civilized foreign country doesn’t steal. At no point are any of the new EU laws stating that Apple can’t charge a developer fee. If Apple chooses to change the price structure for entry to license and develop for their platform no law can control that.

Do you know how many companies would love to use Oracle databases for their products without having to pay Oracle a dime?

Just because you don’t publish on the AppStore doesn’t mean you pay nothing for a Xcode license.

Praying for a Weather-based dynamic wallpaper in macOS 14 like the one in iOS 16 🙏🏼

i'm still waiting for "dim the wallpaper in dark mode" on Mac...

Sounds like mostly ho-hum updates this year. Might even upgrade to iOS 17 sooner than expected.

Better upgrade that phone then!

Better upgrade that phone then!

iOS 16 gets 1 year of security updates
