@davemark Not to be a wiseass but rather suggest a change in framing. If I were reviewing this as a submission from a design job candidate:

What meaning is intended to be conveyed with the red Do Not Disturb, green ATV and purple timer buttons?

How is the user helped by these colors being different if they bring Control Center down over a different home screen page?

Whet value is derived from the ‘content showing through' under a modal interaction like Control Center?

@davemark Asked ChatGTP and the first public beta for iOS 18 was released a week after the 3rd developer beta, on July15th.

I’m a big fan of iOS 26 beta two.

Apple made lots of lovely tweaks. Especially where liquid glass is concerned.

One tweak made Control Center more opaque, easier to read (see pic).

"Denmark is switching to Linux, says its Ministry of Digital Affairs, in a move that exchanges Windows and Office 365 for Linux and LibreOffice."

No small thing. Denmark is a significant economic player, particularly within Europe.

Will we see more of this?

Denmark is switching to Linux

The government of Demark is switching, to be clear.

Got my invite to try out Alexa+.

Bought an Amazon Echo Pop, the cheapest of all the devices that support Alexa+ ($40).

I'll talk about it on next week's show, but Alexa+ is FAR more advanced than Siri. No comparison. Apple has their work cut out for them.

Springsteen fan?

Here’s the trailer to his upcoming movie. Stars Jeremy Allen White (star of “The Bear”) in an amazing turn as Bruce. 😲

Can. Not. Wait. 🍿

You can fire off ambient music directly from iOS Control Center.

I really love this feature, especially when I'm writing, or focused on a task.

Pretty simple, here's a very short Apple Support video that shows how to do it...
