Definitely experienced this today. Person on the other end was using wired CarPlay and could barely hear them. Both using 14 pros. I will say it did sound clearer with less background noise… just had to put my volume all the way up.
Got a tip for us?

I’ve been saying this for years. I don’t understand why the **** does Craig have a job there. Everything that has to do with software is such a ****ing mess

A new phone needs a new OS. New hardware capabilities. In an ideal world hardware and software would be fully tested before release, but Apple seem to be wedded to an annual September phone launch, doubtless to maximise sales ready for Christmas gifting.
It's an opportunity to feel good, having a wee bit of power and agency (that's others lacking) by lashing out at some company or person.
The new normal on the internet.
It happened to me yesterday. New 14 PM. My first of three calls was perfect. The next two could hardly hear me. I switched to my car’s own cell phone interface and that was perfectly usable.

And he had the complete nerve to take shots at Forstall on stage at WWDC. I said it in an earlier post but i know high school students that can program with more effeciency and do it FAR more compentantly than Craig and his stooges xould ever hope to achieve.
And Apple’s response will be “you’re driving it wrong.”

I was thinking this same thing today. It’s like the best thing would be to buy the device when pre order opens, receive device, open the box and appreciate the device, then wait 7-10 days to actually activate and use the damn thing to have an optimal experience.

Took the words right out of my mouth. I can't remember a launch where we've seen it this bad.

I thought that was a weird thing to say... until I tried to remember the last time I held a phone to my ear. It's been a while.

See, this is why I'm not an early adopter. I like waiting awhile before trying out new hardware/software. Saves me a lot of headaches.
Especially since apparently we are all beta testers now.

Yes. The evidence is that Tim Cook is adamant about workers returning to the office despite it being unpopular inside Apple. If Tim Cook sees data that productivity has been better with a remote workforce, he wouldn't be doing this.
Apple employees claim they’re doing ‘exceptional work’ remotely as Tim Cook orders them back. They’re probably wrong
A petition demanding “location flexible work” began circulating among Apple workers over the weekend.

Not a problem. We got car crash detection for that now

Isn’t it weird how barely any of those Vblogger / influencers have reported on these bugs after their so called „testing“ or mentioned anything since
Edit: sorry didn’t mean to make a double post.

I miss the “it just works” days. We pay a lot for these products and get buggy software every year. Why do we bother?
