watchOS 10 marks the third time Apple will change the Apple Watch side button function. While I’m not a fan of the “carousel” dock, I’m not sure activating Control Center is an improvement, considering you can access Control Center by swiping up from the bottom edge in any app.
Also, the amount of Vision Pro content and apps that Apple showed in flat 2D is shocking to me.
#WWDC23 was great, but #VisionPro ain't it (yet). I'm sure it's a better experience than anything to date, but aside from focusing on AR, there's not much new. Instead of seeing a VR web browser floating in the Himalayan mountains, now it can float in my apartment for $3500? Nah.
My main hope for #WWDC23 is more feature parity across Apple platforms, including:
- Apple Fitness app for macOS
- Apple Health app for iPadOS & macOS
- Apple Watch app for iPadOS & macOS
- Apple Notes app for watchOS
- Full iCloud Photo Library for watchOS
- Native Shortcuts automations for watchOS
- FCPX for iPadOS
- Shortcuts app for tvOS
- Focus mode support on tvOS
- Continuity Camera and FaceTime for tvOS
Anything else obvious I am missing? Oh, and just blow up Stage Manager, try again.
@matthewcassinelli Are you aware of a comprehensive list of which Shortcut actions can run *natively* on Apple Watch, when iPhone is not connected? Increasingly annoyed that "Get currently active face on Apple Watch" cannot run without an iPhone nearby.
Tore through #MonsterFactory docuseries on #AppleTVPlus in a couple of days. Highly recommend. Great showcase for pro wrestling, but also a great look at the human toll paid by those who dedicate themselves to entertain. https://tv.apple.com/us/show/monster-factory/umc.cmc.38kf4x2lvqiqdb0up8kcptnd
