Live From WWDC 2019: Coverage of Apple's Keynote with iOS 13, macOS 10.15, and More

[FFR]

Faster apps and faster Face ID.
And dark mode

Can’t wait for iOS 13.

Here’s the thing. The negative crowd that is already carping about WWDC needs to realize one cold, hard fact. Their demographic is completely irrelevant to Apple or its billion customers now. I know it will hard to accept this fact but that faction doesn’t influence anything that has to do with Apple. They simply don’t count in the equation and they mean nothing to Apple and really never have. Tech blog comment sections are a closed ecosystem. What’s posted there stays there.

Craig actually has some decent presentation skills.

Not sure how, because what about the millions of devices that don't support iOS12? They don't count in this number?

Guess the rumors about a revamp of the UI were unfounded.

Icons and graphics look the same.

These keynote events get more and more like a Nuremberg Rally every year.

All the presenters are like sugar loaded children. It’s just so embarrassing to see grown adults behaving like this.

Ok dude, enough about dark mode. it's freaking dark mode... nothing to see, move it along.

 

[juanm]

Let's make it a game

 

[alexandr]

wait, what was that type/swipe thing?

 

[keysofanxiety]

Why use a jellyfish to show luminescence when Craig has a perfectly good head of hair?!

 

[dannyyankou]

Yay I can delete Gboard

 

[PhillyGuy72]

Dark mode - we've been wanting this since 2011 (unless we jailbroke this thing)
Finally.

 

[cola79]

2024 Pink Mode!

 

[CooKieMoNs7eR]

Omg dark mode something that was in the jailbreak community for 5 years!!!!!

The reality of technology, are you new?

 

[dominiongamma]

No home or lock screen dark mode ?

The swiping keyboard thing is quite useful. I know it's been available for years with third party keyboards but I'm sat here in my faraday cage, paranoid about my personal information - so I've never been too happy with the level of access those keyboards require. My key presses could be being sent anywhere - so to have a swipey native keyboard is handy.

 

[entropi]

Depeche Mode!!!!!

 

[apolloa]

Ooh Depech Mode, Craig has music taste

 

[Kobayagi]

My iPhone 6s Plus is still running iOS 10. I get popups from time to time but have never been tricked into updating.

Yeah, but I'm guessing many do the way they designed it. I forgot exacfly what it looks like, but your probably know what I mean, they need to press skip or something thats in the lower font all the way lower in the screen.

 

[drinkingtea]

YES. SWYPE.

 

[Rogifan]

Doesn’t look like app icons were updated to be less white. Boo. I wonder if the dock and app folders will still be gray on a black background.

 

[keysofanxiety]

Oh sweet, time synced lyrics! Now I can grab my hairbrush and burp along to my favourite Cattle Decapitation tracks.

 

[Kobayagi]

Wow, great answer about their 'factual' number. Good job there.

 

[alphacen]

Seriously, are they going to spend 15m on dark mode? C'mon. It's not revolutionary, it's iterative.

 

[PhillyGuy72]

"Black celebration" used for dark mode example.
Why not Public Enemy?
