    There’s a toggle button to allow the iPad versions of their apps to run on visionOS. It would take one person less than four minutes to allow it. Is it an amazing experience on Vision Pro? No, but it would be a good one at least.

  • What’s the tiniest thing about iOS / iPadOS / macOS that really bugs you?

    Ringtone volume is set under “Sounds & Haptics” in settings.

    It’s a “sticky” setting in that, if you have “change with buttons” turned off, you have to go back to settings to adjust the notification/ringtone volume, but I’ve always treated ringtones as on/off rather than specific volume levels, because of the silent switch. I don’t ever want my phone to ring loud, so I have the volume set low just in case I happened to forget to put it in silent mode.

    As much as we have Lucas to thank for the movies getting made, it cannot be overstated just how important Ralph was (and continues to be) to the visual language of Star Wars. I love that shows like Rebels, Obi-Wan, and The Mandalorian have incorporated so many of his previously unused designs. His work is the gift that keeps on giving.

  • Your Apple Watch Bands May Not Work With Next Year's Model

    Some variation of this rumor has floated around for years now. Every year we get people saying Apple’s going to change the band design and make old bands incompatible with new watches.

    Will it happen at some point? Sure. Do I think it’ll be this next year? No. A magnetic connection seems like the exact kind of thing Apple would want to do if it were practical, but for a device that is used in the range of activities the watch is, it’s not.

    I always send an iCloud link for photos when I know that there’s someone who may not be using an iPhone. I’m not sure why others don’t. It’s especially useful when sending large numbers of pictures.

    If they enable iCloud sync for messages it will update everywhere, they can also make sure they have Text Message Forwarding selected on their phone. They’ll get the messages in a timely manner (I get mine at the exact same time as my phone) and read messages will be reflected in all locations. I’ve been using iMessage on a Mac, iPad, and iPhone in some combination or other since the feature was offered, and the only issue I’ve ever had with sync was when I did a clean setup on a new Mac instead of a setup from backup. The above options weren’t selected.

    I gave episodes 1 & 2 a B- primarily for pacing issues. Episode 3 resolved my pacing concerns (dialogue seemed to move at a better pace), and the characterization of Hera (the bit we got of her) seemed more consistent with my expectations. Most importantly, this episode was *fun*. I enjoyed the interactions between Ahsoka, Sabine, and Huyang. The dynamics of the three are interesting, and Huyang’s pessimism in regards to Sabine’s training gives Ahsoka a chance to be more optimistic than we saw in her interactions with Hera. It’s a good dynamic, and I look forward to seeing it play out further. Less play with Baylan than I would have liked, but overall I think episode 3 exceeded the expectations I had coming out of the first two episodes.
