For sure! But I’m trying not to get excited until I know which features will be available on my existing phone...

That's me, but with anything location specific, maps, weather etc.

Oh those are nice new multitasking implementations.

Oh this is slick, I love the idea of app/site contextual notes.

C'mon Thai language translations... BAH. Damn you silver fox!

Holy shit did he say app dev on iPad. People are going to lose their shit over this.

 

[DT]

Wow!

"The Mac is doomed now" comments incoming.

I got distracted. Did they say anything about simply closing extra Safari windows I open by accident now and then? Or am I stuck with merging windows?

Yes!

There’s a new “windows view” for apps that support multiple windows, and you can even park multiple split views, and create views from the running apps view (the swipe up).

I'm still waiting on the new Macs.

 

[DT]

HOLY SHIT, universal control, I’ve always wanted this

 

[Renzatic]

NICE!

Still no 17” G5 PowerBook. Sigh.

iPadOS...



Is it pro yet?

Not for people who want MacOS on an iPad.

But testing the how Universal control can be applied will be fun.

 

[Pumbaa]

Monterey… Gonna take a while for me to not associate that name with a certain fox, but I’m looking forward to the release this fall!

I'm just so damn mad...

Yikes (WWDC 2021)

Well that was…disappointing.

YES! when paying up to $2400 for a device marketed as a computer replacement, I would like it to have similar capabilities to a $999 MacBook Air!

The one thing I was really hoping for was an external display at native resolution. maybe current iPads simply do not have the GPU wired up to be able to provide the higher resolution output, i.e., it's hardware, not software.

The both ways / all ways with AirPlay / UC, i.e., any peripheral, display on any device is pretty fantastic. This also kills a few 3rd party apps that provided things like AirPlay __to__ a Mac (AirParrot comes to mind).

Lots of new features and functions that are sure to please many people.... Then there are those of us who probably won't use any of them or many at all! Looking forward to Monterey and also still looking forward to the eventual announcement of the new M series 14" and 16" MBPs.....
