y'all. it's time

Now that I have my first iPad with cellular, I understand why so many people have been begging for cellular Macs for years.

Having native cellular support is soooooo much better than tethering. It's faster, doesn't kill your phone battery, more reliable, etc.

Wow, it's great.

@atpfm If the Mac Pro Believe Shirt ever fails to reach its minimum 10-shirt order in the future, the following round of shirts should include a Mac Pro Believe Shirt Believe Shirt, with a graphic showing the shirt with the word Believe under it
@overcastfm excellent update - can you please keep the many AirPlay bugs in mind for the next update?
And has remained at 27” for consumers/prosumers ever since…bring 32” to the mainstream Apple!

@overcastfm THANK YOU! Please don’t forget about AirPlay bugs

An iPadOS 26.1 feature in testing that hasn't been enabled in builds yet:

SpringBoard itself has a system menu bar, with quick access to a bunch of things, including shut down and restart, screenshots, homescreen editing and more. Combined with the previous 'Control Center on External Displays' unreleased feature, I hope that they're slowly building towards clamshell mode for iPad…

xcrun simctl spawn booted defaults write com.apple.springboard SBHomeScreenMenuBar -bool YES; killall SpringBoard

@macrumors has apple acknowledged the WiFi/Bluetooth issues in the 17 line yet?
@marcoarment This is awesome, love the liquid glass design so far also....can you please look into Airplay bugs...app is still full of them thanks!

I finally called Apple Support and resolved my AppleCare One problem. It is as I suspected: AppleCare One does not correctly handle multiple user accounts in macOS. This is a known issue. No ETA for a fix.

The solution? Cancel AppleCare One and sign up for individual warranties for the devices that were covered under AppleCare One. These new plans will cost me more than AppleCare One and more than I was paying for the plans they had before I signed up for AppleCare One.
